With senior linebacker Jamar Chaney lost to injury, the middle linebacker role will be filled by redshirt freshman Jamie Jones.  And defensive coordinator Charlie Harbison believes Jones and the rest of his defense will pick up the slack.

“One guy falls down, and the weight has to be distributed.  I feel good about Jamie and his ability to execute the gameplan.”



The return of Derek Pegues (photo at left) should help the defense overall… and the return game.

On the offensive side of the ball, 5′10, 180-pound freshman receiver Delmon Robinson has impressed Sylvester Croom.  “He made just about every play that came to him.  Once he ran a bad route and slipped, he was out of balance when he came out of his break, but he still found a way to make the play.  That’s something about him that he has.  He is a playmaker.”
