MONTGOMERY, Alabama - When asked about quarterback Greg Jenkins' role on his team this upcoming season, Alabama State coach Reggie Barlow was honest in his answer.
"Greg is as important to the program right now as I am," he said. "He stirs the offense and our defensive group knows when he's out there we have a chance."
Jenkins, a transfer from Troy, finished the 2011 season with 1,475 yards on 125 of 210 passes and 11 touchdowns in the air while rushing the ball 122 times for 330 yards and another seven touchdowns.
"The three games we lost last season were the three games where Greg didn't play the entire game," Barlow said. "So far, I've been really impressed with Greg. His approach and competition level is where he left off last season. He understands the system and it fits him."
Jenkins and the Hornets finished the 2011 season 8-3 overall and 7-2 in the East Division of the SWAC.
