ASU adds JUCO transfer Young-Battle to QB mix

MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- Brian Jenkins has added Jujuan Young-Battle to the quarterback competition at Alabama State.

A junior college transfer from Ellsworth Community College in Iowa, Young-Battle threw for 3,118 yards and 26 touchdowns in 11 games last season.
