McKinnon finding a way to get on the field for GSU
090410 GSU McKINNON 01 web
Jerick McKinnon, a true freshman and Georgia Southern's backup quarterback, has used his talent to find other ways to get on the field, most recently as a slot receiver.
Near the end of the first half of Georgia Southern’s 38-21 win over Elon quarterback Jaybo Shaw took a hard hit that knocked the ball loose, and sent his helmet flying. Shaw sat on the ground stunned by the blind side blow while Elon players celebrated the recovery of the fumble. At the time the game was tied, 14-14.
