NORFOLK, Virginia - The Norfolk State football team needs to rebuild on defense - quickly if it hopes to defend its MEAC title. The Spartans put potential building blocks in place this week with four newcomers, including a trio from big-name schools. All four play defense, three play linebacker, and three should be able to help out immediately."I was trying to think myself (if we've ever had three) from BCS schools," coach Pete Adrian said. "Obviously, we had (wide receiver) Xavier (Boyce) last year and we had (quarterback) Dennis Brown before that, but three in a year, I'm not sure."
Lynden Trail transferred from Florida and will have three years of eligibility at NSU. Brent Singleton transferred from Minnesota and has two years of eligibility left. Neither played a down last season.
Lamonte Clark, a defensive end, originally committed to Kansas State but never began school. He can redshirt without penalty at Norfolk State if he chooses. The final newcomer, linebacker Justin Gant, played for Atlanta Sports Academy, a prep school in Georgia.
