Alabama A&M offense shaping up heading into opener at Grambling State

NORMAL, Alabama -- Alabama A&M had its bumps and bruises during preseason camp as injuries forced the Bulldogs to have to modify their regular routine.

Nonetheless, the they were able to get a lot of work done.

They found a starter at in quarterback in redshirt sophomore and Calera native Brandon Wells after relying on former signal-caller Deaunte Mason the past three seasons. Ball State transfer senior Barrington Scott and redshirt sophomore Brandon Eldemire shown themselves worth of carrying the load at tailback in A&M's opener at SWAC foe Grambling State (La.) Saturday.

"I don't know if you sit back and try to replace," longtime Bulldogs' coach Anthony Jones said during Monday's league coaches' teleconference. "What I think you do is try to concentrate on what you have here and not what you don't have and that's what we're doing. This is one of the great things about college football. Every three or four years, you get a new crop of guys to come in here and show what they can do."
