Jake Heaps in middle of QB battle

March 13, 2010

BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall told The Salt Lake Tribune that the quarterback battle between Jake Heaps, Riley Nelson and James Lark is even, and that he'd ideally name a starter at the conclusion of spring ball.

Fantasy Impact:

This is one of the nation's more intriguing quarterback battles. Heaps is an early enrollee and the Rivals.com top pro-style quarterback in the class of 2010, Riley Nelson is a junior who has sat behind Max Hall, and Lark is highly regarded and just returned from his mission work.
