Southern U. QB Austin Howard learns college game quickly

NEW ORLEANS -- Southern University offensive coordinator Chad Germany recalled the summer conversation he had with freshman quarterback Austin Howard before preseason camp began.

"He said, 'Hey coach, I've started for four years. I've never sat on the bench,' '' Germany said. "That competitive approach he has is something that I like about him. It will carry him a long way.''

This time last year, Howard, a 6-foot, 190-pounder, was the starting quarterback for West St. John High.
