Hustle Belt reports UMass names Brandon Rose starting QB.
From Hustle Belt's article " UMass ranked 114th or below in FBS passing yards game every year from 2019-24, with the exception of 2023 when it finished 81st. The program has not produced a 2,000-yard passer since Andrew Ford in 2017, and the only quarterback to clear the 3,000-yard threshold since the Minutemen joined the FBS is Blake Frohnapfel in 2014."
Rose had six offers, all but one from Power Four schools, coming out to HS. The one Group-of-Five offer was from Boise State..
It would a balm to the battered egos of UMass fans if Rose could move the UMass offense into the top half of the MAC.
