Marshall freshman DL Caden Turner brings size, upside, and a clean development runway
Caden Turner is a 2026 freshman defensive lineman at Marshall, listed at 6-foot-3, 202 pounds and wearing No. 34, with his base profile built more on projection than production so far. The intriguing part: he arrives from Coal Grove in Ironton, Ohio with a long-frame build that can add mass, which is exactly the kind of moldable body coaches love on the defensive front. As a true freshman, the immediate question is role and physical development, but the fit looks appealing for a program that values growth, effort, and future depth on the line.
