Marshall is one of many players, including Bryce Underwood, Zeke Berry, Andrew Marsh, Jake Guarnera, Andrew Sprague, Blake Frazier, Andrew Babalola, and Evan Link, to return as a part of Team 146.
The sophomore runningback toted the rock 150 times for 932 yards and 10 touchdowns this past season.
Now, all eyes are on fellow tailback Justice Haynes as he, too, is rumored to return for the Wolverines.
With the addition of freshman Savion Hiter, the runningback room alongside Underwood and new head coach Kyle Whittingham would be dangerous for upcoming opponents in the 2026 season.
