Talkative transfer takes aim at JSU Tigers' tailback role

Tigers Running Back Bloi-Dei Dorzan

Juco product Bloi-Dei Dorzan 1 of 5 newcomers vying for key starting spot in Jackson State backfield


The Lackawanna Community College pipeline is alive and well at Jackson State. Sometimes the connection works better than others. Dennis Coit has blossomed into a can't-live-without defensive tackle from the Pennsylvania school.

Quarterback A.J. McKenna quit, then came back, then quit again before ever playing a regular-season game. Oliver McNeil is somewhere in the middle as he fights for a starting spot in the secondary this season. Newcomer Bloi-Dei Dorzan hopes to follow Coit's lead heading into his first season with the Tigers. And there's plenty of opportunity to do so.
