MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- FOUR-DOWN TERRITORY
1. Secondary still a question: The Hornets may not know their starting secondary players until they line up in the season opener, and that unit is certain to face challenges. "It's a work in progress in the secondary," Barlow said. "There isn't a group of guys playing with the confidence that we would like to see them play with. From a scheme standpoint, what we do is what we do. We're aggressive and we're going to get after it. If we have to adjust that according to how guys are playing (in the secondary), then we'll do it."
2. Best front seven?: With NFL prospect Derrick Billups anchoring a line that includes Justin Mitchell, Chris Terry and Edward Mosley (and occasionally Roderick Henderson in the middle), along with Dareus Washington, Kourtney Berry and Deontrelle Silmon at linebacker, the Hornets' front seven may be the best in all of HBCU football. "I hate to say that to them because (of how) they may read it," Barlow said, "but they're combative and they're coming on. The biggest question is their conditioning. If they're in great shape, they can be very dominant."
