AJ Hairston News, Rumors, Updates - Massachusetts Minutemen | FOX Sports

Efficient in first start Hairston completed 13 of 25 passes for 163 yards during Saturday's 35-34 overtime loss against Liberty. He also had six rushes for seven yards with one touchdown.

Impact Hairston might not have registered a passing touchdown, but he was efficient while not causing a turnover or being sacked. The freshman appears to be the top choice right now with starting quarterback Taisun Phommachanh injured and out for the season. Hairston received most of the time under center with fellow freshman Ahmad Haston also seeing time under center, but more of in a Wildcat option. If Hairston gets the start this Saturday (Nov. 23) against Georgia, it will be certainly a tough task against a Bulldogs' defense who are the top 30 defense against both passing and running in the nation.
