Zach Lujan (OC / QB Coach) on Romain: “We are fired up to have Marcus join the Wildcat brotherhood! From the start we knew Marcus possessed a unique set of leadership skills that are required of the Quarterback position. Marcus’ arm talent, combined with his athletic abilities, will make him difficult to defend and will create special opportunities for him to have a lasting impact on our offense and the team.”
