Offensive lineman, captain leads Thundering Herd with 33 career starts
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Marshall senior offensive lineman Logan Osburn was named a 2024 Preseason All-Sun Belt Conference Second Team selection, the Sun Belt Conference announced on Monday.
The Ona, W.Va., native and former Cabell Midland standout is expected to be one of the Thundering Herd's leaders in the 2024 season.
"Logan has done all the things that you expect a leader to do," Marshall head coach Charles Huff said. "He leads us in practice, in the weight room and in our community. I'm happy that he was recognized by our conference."
Osburn, who was also named as a 2024 Preseason All-SBC 1st Team selection by Athlon and a 2024 Preseason All-SBC 2nd Team selection by Phil Steele Publications, returns as Marshall's leader in career starts with 33 to his credit.
In each of the last three seasons, Osburn has been a major force behind Marshall finishing each year with a 1,000-yard rusher and a top-25 finisher in FBS in rushing yards and touchdowns. (Rasheen Ali in 2021, 2023; Khalan Laborn in 2022).
Osburn's leadership extends beyond the field as he is a driving presence within the Huntington and Tri-State communities through community service.
Recently, Osburn was named as a 2024 nominee for the Wuerffel Trophy and the AFCA/Allstate Good Works Team. He was also a 2023 Campbell Trophy nominee.
App State was selected as the preseason favorite for the 2024 SBC East Division title with Marshall chosen to finish 5th in the division. Texas State was the preseason favorite to win the SBC West Division title.
