ALABAMA STATE 34, MVSU 6: QB Dominguez, ASU's offense shine

Alabama State put its confidence in Devin Dominguez by naming the junior as the starting quarterback earlier this week. Dominguez validated that decision Saturday night, passing for 261 yards and three touchdowns to lead ASU to a 34-6 win over Mississippi Valley State.

"I'm not going to lie, I felt a little jittery when I was thinking about it before the game," Dominguez said. "But once you get on the field, it's football. The game takes over and you just have fun."

ASU coach Reggie Barlow gave his new quarterback high marks on his first start. As with any first start, there is room for improvement, but the Hornets liked what they saw. "Devin has a lot of talent," Barlow said. "He's calm and he made some good decisions and some good throws. He's got a couple of things to clear up with tempo and the clock, but all in all, he did well."

ASU Defense Dominates Early; Offense Scores Late in Scrimmage

MONTGOMERY, AL —Alabama State University held its final scrimmage of the preseason, and like last week, the defense dominated early with the offense scoring late. During the 65-play scrimmage, the defense only allowed 282 total yards with 153 of those yards coming on the final four possessions of the scrimmage.

There were 13 drives in all, and the defense forced six three downs-and-out possessions, while also turning the ball over on downs and stopping one early drive with an interception. Three of the drives were stopped with minus yardage in the drive.

The offense finally put together a seven-play 59 yard drive on the fifth possession...

ASU sanction-free and hoping for improvement

MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Alabama State coach Reggie Barlow doesn't have to manufacture ways to motivate his players this season. The Hornets are eligible to compete for a Southwestern Athletic Conference championship after a one-year NCAA postseason ban for violations under a previous regime. Now, they at least have a chance to get in the SWAC mix.

"As a head coach, I had to try and motivate these guys that, 'Regardless of if we can't go to the SWAC championship, we can crown ourselves. Let's just win the games,'" Barlow said. "But in the back of their heads, I imagine it was, 'We can't win it.' "That will change the motivation for our guys." But will it change the results?

ASU Hornets find positives from first scrimmage

Alabama State coach Reggie Barlow stood near midfield, challenging his players to keep up their intensity in sprints as the Hornets' first scrimmage drew to a close.

There were positives he saw in the offense's performance, hard licks passed by the defense and surprisingly few errors on Saturday morning at Hornet Stadium. But as he urged his players on, the one negative that stayed at the forefront of his mind was his players' conditioning. To win the game, he told them, they had to win the fourth quarter. To win the fourth quarter, he added, they had to be in shape.

"We need to get in shape," Barlow said. "The offensive line was a bit lethargic. They have the talent but they're not in very good shape. They're going to have to do some extra running."

Overall, though, he had to be pleased with the effort. The offense wasn't as explosive as he had hoped, but it was productive. And that was without star receiver Nick Andrews, who made an exciting 35-yard catch and run on the scrimmage's first play, then sat out most of the remaining 60 plays.

Alabama State offense finally shows consistency

ASU junior Devin Dominquez is in a quarterback battle among true freshman Demetric Price and redshirt freshman Rashard Burkette.

Alabama State University's offense has looked good at times this fall, but has not shown enough consistency. In Wednesday's practice sessions, the offense showed the consistency it had lacked in earlier practices. The offense did not turn the ball over during the full 11-on-11 session and scored on each possession. Quarterbacks Devin Dominguez, Rashard Burkette and Demetric Price all threw touchdown passes.

"Part of being the head coach is saying, 'Hey, the offense looked good today,'" head coach Reggie Barlow said. "But then you have to turn around and say the defense really did not do well during the scrimmage. "It was good to see the offense score down inside the red zone on those five consecutive possessions. It is something we have worked on. I was also disappointed the defense was unable to make the right corrections and stop the offense."

The defense may have had a bad practice, but overall Barlow has been pleased with what he has seen along the defensive front.

Alabama State golfers compete in MCC Invitational for first time

ASU Hornets golf coach, Dr. Gary Grandison.

The well-wishers were all around Alabama State golf coach Gary Grandison at Montgomery Country Club on Friday afternoon. "Glad to have you here," said one elderly gentleman, a longtime member. For the first time in the 92-year history of the MCC Invitational, Alabama State golfers competed in the tournament after a formal invitation from the club. "It shows progress," said an obviously pleased Grandison. Except in this case, Dr. Grandison was not talking about race relations in Montgomery. He was referring to the advancements made by his golf program.

"This is a quality tournament, and the exposure and experience we're getting is important to the growth and progress of our program," said Grandison, who is getting ready to start his fourth year as the head coach of the men's and women's golf teams at ASU.

College players from Alabama, Auburn, Troy, Huntingdon, Central Alabama, UAB -- and this year ASU -- compete in the MCC, but it is not a typical college tournament. Two-man teams from each school compete for the Dr. Hamp Greene III Collegiate Cup championship, but there are no overall team scores.

Alabama State holds first practice session

ASU Coach Reggie Barlow had 93 players report for first day of football practice.

MONTGOMERY, AL - Calling it an acclimation practice was exactly what the Alabama State University football team experienced on their first day of practice in boiling temperatures. The session was originally scheduled for 3 p.m. but was pushed back to 7:30 p.m. due to the extreme heat conditions.

"We have five days in jersey's and shorts so we can use these days to get the players acclimated to the hot weather," head coach Reggie Barlow said. "We want to be smart with the guys and give them the ability to compete when they are not so drained because of the hot weather."

A total of 93 players were on the field for the first day of practice with 45 of those being returnees. Needless to say, there were several new faces around the team as practice began and there will be a lot of evaluation to go along with the first few days without the pads.

"I am thrilled about the team we have this year," Barlow said. "We have a good mixture of young guys and a lot of older guys. We want to see what the players that were here in the spring retained from spring practice, but we also have to see how some of the new guys will be able to help us."

New ASU athletic director takes over

Stacy Danley was certainly aware of Alabama State's revolving door in the athletic department. The university has had six different athletic directors since Rob Spivery left in 2002, seven if you want to count execu tive vice president John Knight, who has run the department since interim direc tor Sterling Steward resigned in June.

Danley, a former star running back at Auburn in the late 1980s, served as Tus kegee University's athletic director in 2008 and 2009 so he couldn't help but no tice the turmoil of the Hornets' program as it went through coaching transitions, NCAA sanctions and constant changes at the top of the athletic department.

Danley also noticed other changes on campus. New baseball, softball and soccer facilities as well as a football complex were the latest developments for a pro gram trying to put its chaotic struggles in the past.

"It was very clear to me they were at a position where they were ready to transform this athletic department," he said. "They made a commitment to me that they wanted me here and they wanted me here for some time. I'm not going any where any time soon. We've got a lot of work to do. It's not going to happen over night but we're going to get it done."

ASU Board of Trustees Approves Danley for Athletic Director Vacancy

Alabama State University’s Board of Trustees announced the hiring of the Hornets new athletic director at the University during its 2 p.m., July 23 meeting at the Dunn-Oliver Acadome.

The Board named Stacy L. Danley II as the University’s new athletic director. Danley was the director of athletics at Tuskegee University from 2008-2009.

While attending Auburn, Mr. Danley was a member of the football team and went on to play in the National Football League. The 6'-3"/216 lbs., Auburn star tailback is more famously remembered for the hit he received in a nationally televised game bowl game with Ohio State University in 1989 (See Video below).



He also completed an internship at the Southeastern Conference commissioner's office. Danley has served the Southeastern Conference (Birmingham) in the areas of compliance and championships/events management. He was previously associate athletic director for external affairs at Auburn University.

More limbo for Vikings and former Alabama State QB Jackson

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Tarvaris Jackson has taken plenty of heat for his performance, and physically he’s been hurt a lot too over four NFL seasons. Last summer, he was brushed aside for Brett Favre. For all Jackson has been beat up or bumped back, though, he can’t hide his smile. There it was, on Wednesday after practice with the Minnesota Vikings, spreading fast across his face when asked if he had a gut feeling about whether Favre will return or not.

"Yeah, I do. I’m not going to share it," Jackson said, flashing that grin. "But I think everybody has their feeling, and I think everybody is pretty much on the same page." That sure sounded like an expectation Favre will be Minnesota’s quarterback again this year. Jackson said he’s traded text messages a few times with the 40-year-old star, but insisted they talked only about "life stuff" and not football. Jackson said he "wouldn’t dare ask" the burning question about Favre’s status for 2010.



Profile: Tarvaris Jackson, #7, QB, Minnesota Vikings, Height: 6-2, Weight: 225 Age: 27, Born: 4/21/1983 Montgomery , AL; College: Alabama State University, Experience: 5th season; Contract: one year, $1.176 million tender as a restricted free agent; High School: Sidney Lanier HS (Montgomery, AL).

"That’s not even in my character," Jackson said. Well, how about Favre’s health, the left ankle he’s considering surgery on? "I don’t know," Jackson said, laughing. "I didn’t even know he was hurt." Jackson attempted 21 passes last season, the fewest since he turned pro and all in mop-up duty — "Every time I got in the game last year, the game was pretty much over with," he said, smiling again.

Alabama State: The revolving door

Barlow has ushered assistants in and out of program at alarming rate

In the days immediately following Alabama State football coach football Reggie Barlow’s selection as interim head coach, two coaches – Darryl Williams and George Copeland – left for other jobs. Since the interim label was removed from his title in May 2007, 16 other coaches have come in and then followed them out the door. Barlow’s fired 10 of them. On the field, the Hornets’ play has reflected the inner turmoil.

ASU hasn’t recorded a winning season since Barlow took over – going 5-6, 3-8 and 4-7 the last three seasons. In the SWAC, where the Hornets were consistent contenders for the first half of the decade, they’ve gone just 7-16. Fans have started to notice.

Alabama State dominates SWAC indoor meet

Sunday was a day of domination for the Alabama State track and field program as the Hornets swept to the men’s and women’s team titles at the Southwestern Athletic Conference Indoor Track Championships at LSU’s Carl Maddox Field House. On the men’s side, Alabama State took control after scoring 16 points in the 60-meter hurdles, and never relinquished the lead. The Hornets went on to score 124 1/2 points to outdistance defending champion Grambling at 86 2/3. Southern freshman Micah McCulloch placed third in the high jump, triple jump and long jump, and was named the outstanding field performer. His efforts helped the Southern men place third with 70 1/3 points.

For the Alabama State women, the only contest was to see who might collect the most individual wins as they rolled to victory with 220 points. Jackson State was the closest challenger with 104 points, well ahead of the Southern women who were seventh with 39. In defending their 2009 indoor title, the Lady Hornets picked up eight individual firsts to go with a win in the distance medley relay. Second-year Alabama State coach Richard Beene was almost too happy for words following the dual championships.

UAPB WIN SNAPS ‘CURSE’ OF HORNETS

During a Sunday practice in preparation for Monday’s game against Alabama State, Arkansas-Pine Bluff men’s basketball coach George Ivory reminded his team they hadn’t beaten the Hornets since he became coach prior to last season. The reminder of four straight losses — including one by two points in overtime in Montgomery, Ala., last month — was meant to provide a bit of extra motivation for his team. Turns out, they didn’t really need it.

UAPB Golden Lions Coach George Ivory gets first win against Alabama State University Hornets.

The three seniors on the team who began as freshman in 2006 reminded the coach — and their teammates who have since arrived — that nobody really knows when UAPB last beat Alabama State. They just knew that nobody on the court at the time had ever done it. “It’s been a four-year curse since I’ve been here,” forward Tyree Glass said. Glass, Terrance Calvin and George Davis, the three who arrived on campus four years ago, all played roles in ending the string of losses on Monday. In the slowest-paced game the Golden Lions (8-14, 8-3) have played this season, they outlasted the two-time defending Southwestern Athletic Conference champions in a 47-42 win.

Alabama State Signs a Solid 25 for Depth, Size and Speed

MONTGOMERY, AL. – The Alabama State University football program signed 25 players Wednesday to national letters-of-intent to play for the Hornets this fall. "This is always an exciting time of year," said ASU head coach Reggie Barlow. "We feel like we've signed a very solid class of players that will not only provide us depth but also produce some impact performers for our program. With this class, we were focused on adding some depth on both the offensive and defensive lines and we feel like we accomplished that goal. We also were looking to bring in some size at wide receiver and we did that too. Overall, I feel like the staff did a great job of finding players to fit our schemes and our needs."

The incoming 2010 class features 14 players on the offense and nine defensive players. In addition, all but one of the players in this year's class comes from the high school ranks. James McIver joins the Hornets after playing at the College of the Sequoias. ASU signed five wide receivers including a pair of players listed at 6-3 or taller. With the loss of three starting offensive linemen from the 2009 roster, the Hornets were also able to reload along the frontline signing five prospects in this class including four players listed at 300 pounds or more.

Alabama State Hornet's Barlow shakes up staff

Alabama State football coach Reggie Barlow has again made significant changes to his coaching staff, including replacing both coordinators. Former Grambling State head coach Melvin Spears has been hired as the Hornets' new offensive coordinator. Cedric Thornton, who served as ASU's linebackers coach last season, has been promoted to defensive coordinator. Barlow confirmed the hiring of Spears, who will be ASU's fourth offensive coordinator during Barlow's three-year tenure, but said he wasn't prepared to discuss other staff changes.



















ASU Hornets head football coach Reggie Barlow.


Jo Nixon, who told the Montgomery Advertiser that he recently resigned as ASU's defensive coordinator to become the defensive ends coach and special teams coordinator at Texas Southern, said Thornton had been promoted to coordinator before his departure. Thornton becomes ASU's third defensive coordinator under Barlow. Nixon also confirmed that offensive line coach Kenneth Ray has been terminated. "I am very excited to have Melvin Spears joining our coaching staff," Barlow said in a statement released by ASU's sports information department. "He is an outstanding coach and will be a big asset to our program."

Spencer to take his winning ways to Alabama State

When A.J. Spencer played high school basketball, he was a scoring machine, finishing with a Wicomico County (MD) record 1,775 points. The 6'-2" Spencer averaged 10 points and 5.6 assists this past season at Cecil College as the starting point guard and ends JUCO career with a 65-3 record.

SALISBURY, MD -- Wicomico High School graduate A.J. Spencer is the kind of basketball player who defies easy description. During his career, he's gone from an interior player with a guard's game to a converted point guard with the ability to be a scorer. But if forced to label him with a one-word description, his former coaches come up with "winner." He helped the Indians to the state semifinals twice and went 65-3 in two seasons with the Cecil College, winning Maryland JUCO and regional titles.

"He did a great job winning for coach Waller at Wi-Hi, and he did the same thing for us," Cecil coach Bill Lewit said. "He has great leadership skill, puts his teammates first, and has the talent and ability to be a playmaker." So not surprisingly, when the Cecil point guard announced that he had made a decision regarding his basketball future, it was Alabama State, a team that won the Southwestern Athletic Conference regular season and tournament title last season, that he chose.

ASU moves ahead with plan to upgrade athletic facilities

Excerpt:

ASU's board of trustees ap­proved two proposals in recent weeks that call for the construc­tion of a new football complex and a complete overhaul of the team's practice field, including the installation of synthetic turf. The football complex project, which is still in the "early plan­ning stage," will cost the school around $6 million, according to Kippy Tate, ASU's vice presi­dent for buildings and grounds, and has an estimated time of completion of 18 months. The new two-story building will be approximately 25,000 square feet and will be located on the north side of Hornet Stadium, where the school's old bus barn currently stands.

Under those current plans, which Tate said are far from be­ing finalized, the bottom floor of the facility will contain the stan­dard facilities for players, in­cluding a locker room, trainer's room, meeting areas and an aca­demic center for tutoring of all student-athletes. The second floor will primarily consist of coaches' offices, a lounge and meeting areas. The field project, which will cost the school around $900,000 and is close to entering the bid­ding stage of the process, should be completed prior to fall drills in August. The new Sprinturf synthetic turf will be identical to the turf in place at Cramton Bowl, where the Hornets play their home games.

Mixed results in ASU Hornets' scrimmage

Photo Gallery: ASU football offices, practice field
Photo Gallery: ASU football practice

Alabama State defensive coordinator Jo Nixon wants his players to think. It's not enough for the ASU defensive players to just play a position and execute a predetermined set of movements. Nixon wants them to understand why they're being asked to make those moves. Even more important: He wants his players to learn how an offense is going to attack in every conceivable situation, and then make the necessary adjustments before the play develops.

Year of the Hornets will be 2009 as the Coach Reggie Barlow led ASU Hornets have a schedule deep with in-state home games (see schedule below).

Because of those expectations, the first-year coordinator couldn't call the Hornets' first scrimmage of the spring on Saturday morning a defensive success. But he couldn't call it a failure, either. "We had a lot of situations today where we just didn't play very smart football -- where we weren't ready for what was likely to happen," Nixon said. "We're going to get that corrected. If you're going to play in this defense, you've got to understand how an opponent is going to attack us. We've improved in that area, but there were still some gaps."
