Northern Iowa coach Mark Farley says Aidan Dunne is leading the race to become the starting quarterback for the Panther’s new “Air Raid” offense. The native of Dubuque is competing against Wisconsin native Matt Schecklman and former Southeast Polk star Jaxon Dailey to become UNI’s starter. Dailey is a transfer from Arkansas State.
Farley says all three are getting reps.
Farley says all three have done well in adjusting to the new offense.
Farley says at some point who the starter should be will become clear in practice.
The Panthers have missed the FCS playoffs the past two seasons and they are picked to finish eighth in the Missouri Valley Football Conference. Farley says that is a result of the strength of the league.
Farley says the key in Missouri Valley play is winning the close games.
The Panthers open at home on August 31st against Valparaiso
