NORFOLK, Virginia - Norfolk State didn't have to look past Corprew Avenue to fill its vacancy at inside linebacker. Mike Privott, the all-time leading tackler at Lake Taylor, spent the previous three seasons at Louisville and will transfer to Norfolk State this season.
Raised largely by his brother, Ramon, his grandmother and his uncle Vaughn Parker, Privott grew up in Norfolk around Park Place, Lambert's Point and, eventually, his grandmother's house on Corprew Avenue.
"If we weren't (at the games), we could hear the stadium," Parker said. "Excited isn't the word. He's elated to come home and play in front of his hometown. We'll have 100 people in the stands on Saturdays."
Privott, who said he took an NSU physical on Tuesday, hopes to make as immediate an impact on the field as his family intends to make on NSU's attendance.
