No practice, no looking ahead for ASU

MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- Alabama State has completed two weeks of preseason practice, and the implementation phase has been fast and furious.

The Hornets didn’t practice Wednesday due to their focus on the first day of classes at ASU, a much needed break from the wealth of information given out.

Hornets head coach Brian Jenkins held his weekly news conference on Wednesday and stated he continues to be impressed with his team’s attitude.

“Overall, we’ve been very pleased,” Jenkins said. “Things are slowing down a bit, because a lot has been demanded of everybody. The guys are doing what we’ve asked. For the most part, the energy and the effort has been exceptional.”

The first game week of practice may turn into a major cram session. Jenkins said his main concern remains getting everyone adjusted to the new schemes, and that he hasn’t even looked at any film on Tennessee State, which the Hornets will play in the season opener.
