BIRMINGHAM, North Carolina -- Southern figures to be the center of attention during Southwestern Athletic Conference media day Friday in Birmingham, Alabama.The Jaguars are the reigning conference champions, and coach Dawson Odums is one of just six incumbent coaches among the 10 in attendance. He’s operating under a new four-year contract the university gave him in anticipation of long-term success being built after Southern’s first conference title in 10 years.
The spotlight that will shine Friday is merely preparation for what the Jaguars will face on the field in the fall.
“I think that’s a good thing. Every team would want to have that problem,” Odums said. “We’ll be ready to handle it. We’ll get our mindset to a point where being targeted doesn’t faze us.”
