Millbrook (Raleigh, N.C.) star Keith Marshall enters the 2010 season as one of the top juniors in the Tar Heel state. The 5-11, 180-pound running back expects to receive 10 written scholarship offers – including one from Virginia Tech – at the beginning of his junior year, the time when he can begin receiving official offer letters.
