Marshall football offers Eric & Blake Frohnapfel

Eric Frohnapfel had three Football Bowl Subdivision scholarship offers.
His twin brother, Blake, didn't have any.

But Marshall University handed Eric his fourth FBS offer and gave Blake his first this past weekend.

The Colonial Forge High School twins aren't in a hurry to make a decision.

But Eagles head coach Bill Brown said the possibility of attending the same school is intriguing to the family.

"I think that gives them an interesting thought," Brown said. "I don't think it necessarily seals the deal for Marshall, but at the same time it does cause them to ponder it."

Eric, a tight end, also has offers from West Virginia, Virginia and Miami (Ohio).

Blake, a quarterback, has an offer from Bryant University, which plays in the Football Championship Subdivision.

Blake is still receiving interest from several other schools, Brown said. He's made one-day visits to North Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia.

Still, Brown said he and his brother will give the Thundering Herd serious consideration.

"I'm sure that's an ideal situation for [their parents] where they can go to a place and the boys can be together," Brown said. "That would be huge."
