NOTING THE PALADINS

◆ IT’S DOWN TO THIS...After starting the season 4-1 and rising toas high as No. 5 in the NCAA I-AA polls, Furman has dropped four of itslast five games to fall to 5-5 on the year and is now unranked for the firsttime since early in the 1999 campaign. The Paladins now need a victory onSaturday versus Chattanooga to extend the program’s consecutive seasonwinning streak to five. Furman has endured only two losing campaigns since1980: 1994 (3-8) and 1998 (5-6).

◆ FRUSTRATION CENTRAL...Counting Furman’s 7-6 loss toWofford on Saturday, the Paladins have dropped four Southern Confer-ence games this year by a total of 10 points.

◆ TURNOVER TALES...While turnovers for once didn’t determinethe outcome of Saturday’s loss to Wofford, one can’t get past the elephantin the room when discussing the Paladins’ 2003 season. For startersFurman has committed 26 turnovers this year (17 fumbles, 9 interceptions)— the highest total since 1997 when the Paladins suffered 31 miscues (19fumbles, 12 interceptions) in 11 games on the way to a 7-4 season. In theface of Furman’s turnovers, opponent miscues, especially of late, have beensparse, and that’s almost hard to comprehend when considering thePaladins sport the SoCon’s and one of NCAA I-AA’s most dominantdefenses (tops in SoCon in scoring, total, passing, and pass efficiencydefense). In the last four games, opponents have suffered only twoturnovers (fumbles), and both of those came in the Paladins’ 30-10 win overEast Tennessee State on Oct. 25. The Citadel (10-9 loss), GeorgiaSouthern (29-24 loss), and Wofford (7-6 loss), meanwhile, played mistakefree football against the Paladins, who recorded their last interception inthe fourth quarter of a 19-13 win over Western Carolina on Oct. 5 — astreak of 20 quarters without a pickoff. On the year, Furman opponentshave committed 21 turnovers (12 fumbles, 9 interceptions), giving thePaladins a -0.50 turnover margin on the season, which ranks fifth in theSoCon. In the last four contests, however, Furman has a -1.50 in turnovermargin.

◆ MORE STATISTICAL ANOMOLIES...Furman’s defense domi-nated Wofford like no other Terrier foe this year, with the exception ofAir Force, limiting the Terriers to only seven points (23.2 yards belowseason average) and 180 yards total offense (151.1 yards below seasonaverage). The Paladins, meanwhile, managed only six points againstWofford despite racking up 343 yards in total offense. The total offensedifferential on Saturday continued a frustrating trend the Paladins are all tooaccustomed to in 2003, that of pounding out more yardage than opponentsin losses. It all started in a 13-10 loss to Appalachian State, which thePaladins outgained 253-225. And in a 29-24 loss at Georgia Southern,Furman rolled up 448 yards to the Eagles’ 379. Wofford’s seven points alsorepresented the lowest total ever by a winning opponent in Paladin Stadium(1981) and lowest by a winning opponent in Greenville since 1970 whenEast Carolina beat Furman 7-0 in Sirrine Stadium.

◆ SEEING RED IN THE RED ZONE...Furman ranks only seventh inthe Southern Conference in red zone offense efficiency (28x41, 68.3percent) in 2003, and the Paladins have committed a league high eightturnovers inside the opposition’s 20-yard line (6 fumbles, 2 interceptions).

dins’ school record fourth straight and 12th overall.“This was a scary game coming in because Chattanooga had won

their last two and had nothing to lose, but I thought we handled it wellafter a slow start,” said Furman head coach Bobby Lamb. “We got a bigturnover in the third quarter, and that jump started our offense and weplayed well after that. Our defense played extremely well.”

A 7-yard touchdown pass from Billy Napier to Isaac West on thePaladins’ first possession gave Furman a 7-0 lead at the 10:52 mark of thefirst quarter.

Chattanooga battled back to tie the game after moving 90 yards in 18plays for a 5-yard touchdown pass from Ryan McCann to Jason Jones atthe 6:52 juncture of the second quarter.

Furman, however, regained the lead a short while later after defen-sive tackle LeBryan Sperling recovered a fumble at the UTC 35. A 19-yardpass from Napier to Isaac West moved the Paladins to the 1 before Brighamran off right guard into the end zone to give Furman a 14-7 lead with only37 seconds remaining in the half.

The Paladins capitalized on another Chattanooga turnover in the thirdquarter to add to their advantage. An interception and 26-yard return bycornerback Rodney Johnson to the UTC 30 led to a 1-yard touchdownrun by fullback Corey Tant to make it 21-7.

Furman padded its lead later with a 58-yard run by Brigham off anoption pitch and a 5-yard touchdown pass by backup quarterback Bo Mooreto split end James Thomas.

Furman outgained Chattanooga 339-219 in total offense and rolledup 240 yards on the ground to the Mocs’ 54. The Paladins also recorded aseason high three sacks.

Paladin quarterback Billy Napier, who completed 12-of-15 passes for94 yards and a score, hit sophomore split end Isaac West for six comple-tions for 70 yards. Senior flanker Bear Rinehart, meanwhile, caught fivepasses for 24 yards to establish a new Furman season receptions record,eclipsing the previous standard of 53 receptions set by Robbie Hahn in1967.

Furman’s defense, which did not allow UTC to cross midfield in thesecond half, was paced by sophomore linebacker Mike Killian with eighttackles.

2003 FURMAN PALADINS FOOTBALL

Two of the eight came in the Paladins’ 29-24 loss to Georgia Southern onNov. 8, and three others were registered in the Paladins’ 13-10 setback toAppalachian State on Oct. 11. In Saturday’s loss to Wofford, Furmanadvanced into the red zone three times but only managed to post six pointswith a pair of field goals. The other chance ended on a missed 28-yard fieldgoal attempt.

◆ SENIOR SCARCITY...Furman counts just five seniors on this year’ssquad, only two of whom are among its starting 22. The Paladins, however,are well stocked with juniors (22) and sophomores (27). Furman’soffensive and defensive starting lineup against Chattanooga will likelyfeature two seniors, 12 juniors, seven sophomores, and one redshirtfreshmen.

◆ PALADIN “D” TOPS SOCON...Although Furman counts onlyone senior starter on defense in end Brandon Poole (Columbia, S.C.),the Paladins have been particularly strong on the defensive side of thefootball this year. Heading into Saturday’s game versus Chattanooga,Furman leads the Southern Conference in four of the five major statisticalcategories: scoring defense (13.4 ppg), total defense (265.4 ypg), passingdefense (119.0 ypg), and passing efficiency defense (94.8 rating). In the onlyother category, rushing defense (146.4 ypg), the Paladins rank third.Furman’s defensive improvement this year has been significant across theboard as the below comparisons illustrate:

Passing Efficiency Defense ................................ 94.8334.2 ........................................... Total Defense ....................................... 265.4

◆ PALADIN “D” AMONG BEST IN NATION...Furman heads intoSaturday’s game against Chattanooga with a defense ranked among the bestin NCAA I-AA: passing defense (119.0/1st), total defense (265.4 ypg/3rd),scoring defense (13.4 ppg/4th), and passing efficiency defense (94.8/5th).

◆ CUTTING OFF THE SECOND HALF SPIGOT...AmazinglyFurman has surrendered just 32 second half points in 10 games this seasonbut are only 5-5 on the year. Topping that is the fact that the Paladins haveallowed only six points in the third quarter (two field goals by AppalachianState and Georgia Southern) this fall.

◆ SOLID SECOND HALF DEFENSE...While Furman stubbed itstoe in back-to-back losses to Appalachian State and The Citadel in mid-October, losing both games by a combined total of four points, the Paladindefense could hardly be blamed. Against Appalachian State, Furman limitedthe Mountaineers to one field goal and 93 total yards in the second half,including no first downs, 10 plays, and only 10 yards total offense in thefourth quarter. The next week against The Citadel, the Paladins recordeda second half shutout and limited the Bulldogs to only 125 yards in totaloffense over the third and fourth quarters. In a 30-10 win over EastTennessee State on Oct. 25, Furman surrendered only one touchdown and66 yards total offense to the Buccaneers in the second half. The paltry 19second half points yielded by Furman’s defense in the last five games (onetouchdown, four FGs) followed a blocked punt and four-play, six-yard driveby Appalachian State (34-yard field goal), a shanked punt and eight-play, 30-yard drive by East Tennessee State (1-yard touchdown plunge on fourthdown), and three Georgia Southern drives, two of which followed aFurman fumble at the 50 and an Eagle kickoff return to the GSU 46. ThePaladins shut out Wofford in the second half on Saturday, limiting theTerriers to 89 total yards in the second half on only 25 plays.

◆ KILLIAN REACHES NEW CAREER HIGH...Furman junior middlelinebacker Mike Killian (Atlanta, Ga.) paced the Paladins with a gamehigh 15 tackles and a blocked field goal in Saturday’s 7-6 loss to Wofford,helping limit the Terriers to only 180 total yards. Two weeks ago herecorded a career high 19 tackles in the Paladins’ 29-24 loss at GeorgiaSouthern. The Southern Conference’s leading tackler this season andheadliner of the league’s top defensive unit, Killian has 123 stops through10 games. In addition, he has four tackles-for-loss, three forced fumbles,

three fumble recoveries, an interception, and blocked field goal. As aredshirt freshman in 2001, he started nine games at defensive and totaled42 tackles before being switched to linebacker, where he registered 101stops a year ago.

◆ PALADIN POINTERS...Junior Stephen Schroeder (Mauldin,S.C.) earned his first career start on Saturday against Wofford, starting atright tackle for sophomore Brian Laggis (Stockbridge, Ga.), who hadbeen sidelined for much of the week due to illness. Wofford’s 7-6 winsnapped a four-game Furman series winning streak, marked the Terriers’first win in eight trips into Paladin Stadium (1-6-1), and represented theTerriers first triumph in Greenville since 1970.

◆ KEEP THAT FLAG IN YOUR POCKET...Furman heads intoSaturday’s game against Chattanooga as the league’s least penalized team(43 penalties for 369 yards).

◆ MARSHALL MAKES HISTORY...Furman senior Danny Marshall(Atlanta, Ga.) became the Southern Conference’s all-time kick scoringleader against Wofford on Saturday when he converted a 26-yard field goalearly in the fourth quarter, breaking the old standard of 302 points heldby Western Carolina’s Kirk Roach (1984-87). Now with 304 points, heranks second in Furman overall scoring history, trailing only Louis Ivory(1998-01, 318 points). In a 19-13 Furman win over Western Carolina onOct. 4, he converted a career high four field goals, including a pair from 42and 43 yards. Marshall leads the Southern Conference in kick scoring with71 points, having converted a league leading 16-of-19 field goals (.842) and23-of-23 PATs. For his career he has drilled 51-of-63 field goal attempts(.809) and 151-of-160 PATs (.945).

2003 FURMAN PALADINS FOOTBALL

◆ MARSHALL PICKED FOR ALL-STAR CLASSIC...Furman se-nior placekicker Danny Marshall (Atlanta, Ga.) will compete in TheFootball Network (TFN)/Division I-AA All-Star Classic game on Tuesday,Dec. 30 at Lockhart Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

◆ BURANT A FORCE IN THE MIDDLE...One factor in Furman’ssolid defensive work this year has been the strong play of junior nose guardMichael Burant (Lexington, Va.). In the Paladins’ 30-10 win over EastTennessee State on Oct. 25, Burant fashioned his most productive game asa Paladin, recording a career high eight tackles, a tackle-for-loss, and a passdeflection. That topped an earlier career high seven-tackle performance,including two for-loss, in a 28-17 loss to Clemson on Sept. 6. The eighttackles versus the Tigers were the most by a Paladin nose guard since B.J.Pate notched nine stops in a 31-28 win over Chattanooga in 1998.Counting his six tackles in Saturady’s 7-6 loss to Wofford, through 10games he has 47 tackles, including seven for-loss, two pass deflections, anda fumble recovery. He totaled 23 stops in an injury plagued 2002 campaignthat saw him register action in only eight contests.

◆ RAVENELL GAINING NOTICE...Furman redshirt freshman de-fensive end Roy Ravenell (Goose Creek, S.C.), Furman’s top candidatefor Southern Conference Freshman-of-the-Year honors, had a majorcoming out performance against Appalachian State on Oct. 11 with aseason high 10 tackles, two tackles-for-loss, two forced fumbles, and a sack— all of which helped him earn his first career start against The Citadel,against whom he registered seven tackles, including two-for-loss, and a sackto help key another solid Furman defensive effort. That continued inFurman’s 30-10 triumph over East Tennessee State on Oct. 25, when hetallied five tackles and a tackle-for-loss. Through 10 games this year, hehas 45 tackles, six tackles-for-loss, a league leading four forced fumbles, twosacks, and an interception. His pickoff came in a 45-0 win over Gardner-Webb and represented the first interception by a Paladin defensive linemansince 1996. A former Shrine Bowl selection from Stratford High School,he began his Furman career as a middle linebacker before getting movedto defensive end last spring. That move was due in large measure to thecoaching staff’s desire to improve the squad’s pass rush. As the aforemen-tioned pass rush chart indicates, it looks like Ravenell’s position switch wasright on cue.

◆ STEPP STEPS IN...Furman redshirt freshman quarterback JoshStepp (Pelion, S.C.) stepped in for injured junior quarterback BoMoore (Madison, Ga.) against The Citadel on Oct. 18 and almost led thePaladins to victory. Earning his first career start after totaling only fourseries’ of experience in two games (two each vs. Gardner-Webb andAppalachian State), the young lefthander completed 9-of-19 passes for 119yards and also rushed for 43 yards on 13 carries. His most impressive workof the game came on a 13-play, 80-yard fourth quarter drive that saw himscramble for a touchdown on a fourth-and-goal play from the Citadel 3 with3:06 to go. His start against the Bulldogs was the first by a redshirt freshmanquarterback since Justin Hill registered three starts late in the 1997campaign.

◆ AND UP...Redshirt freshman quarterback Josh Stepp (Pelion,S.C.) followed up his first career start versus The Citadel with animpressive outing in the Paladins’ 30-10 win over East Tennessee State onOct. 25. Against the Buccaneers, Stepp completed 10-of-14 passes for 208yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 25 yards and a another scoreon the way to earning Southern Conference Freshman-of-the-Weekhonors. His touchdown pass covered 21 yards to Brian Bratton(Martinez, Ga.), and his scoring run also went for 21 yards in the fourthquarter to help the Paladins pull away. The young Paladin lefthander is thesecond Paladin signal caller in recent years to earn Shrine Bowl MVP honorsas a high school senior — a feat also accomplished by Justin Hill (1997-00) while at Greer (S.C.) High School.

◆ MOORE RETURNS...Junior quarterback Bo Moore (Madison,Ga.) returned to the starting lineup versus Georgia Southern on Nov. 8after missing the East Tennessee State (Oct. 25) and Citadel (Oct. 18)contests due to a high ankle sprain sustained in the second half of thePaladins’ 13-10 loss to Appalachian State on Oct. 11. Moore’s return toaction produced some positive results as he completed 15-of-24 passes for165 yards while also rushing 12 times for 93 yards and a touchdown. The

258 yards in total offense marked a new career high as did the 93 yardsrushing. In Saturday’s 7-6 loss to Wofford, he threw for 206 yards (19-of-28, 1 INT). Through 10 games, he now has 1,213 yards passing on theseason and ranks second on Furman’s rushing ledger with 277 yards.

◆ BRIGHAM ON THE CHARTS...Furman’s lone senior starter onoffense, tailback Hindley Brigham (Birmingham, Ala.), currently theSouthern Conference’s third leading rusher, recorded his fifth 100-yardrushing performance of the season and eighth of his career in the Paladins’29-24 loss to Georgia Southern on Nov. 8 by rushing 11 times for 127 yardsand a touchdown, which came on a career best 80-yard burst in the firstquarter. Brigham’s touchdown run was the longest by an opponent inPaulson Stadium history, the longest by a Paladin since Lamar Rembert’s 83-yard TD sprint in a 37-10 win over The Citadel last year, and the longestby a Paladin in a road game since Robbie Gardner covered 88 yards in a 38-28 win over Marshall in 1984. Brigham’s work versus Georgia Southern anda 74-yard outing versus Wofford improved his team season leading tally to897 yards. In the Paladins’ 19-13 win at Western Carolina on Oct. 14, heran a career high 28 times for another career high 137 yards. His other 100-yard outings this year include a pair of 110-yard workdays against both Elon(24-7 win) and Richmond (31-17 win) and a 126-yard performance versusEast Tennessee State (30-10 win). He needs 103 yards versus Chattanoogato record only the 12th 1,000-yard rushing season in Furman history and111 yards to top the 2,000-yard plateau — a feat achieved by only sevenplayers in Furman history.

◆ “SIR CAM” NEWTON...Furman junior All-Southern Conferencefree safety Cam Newton (Bennettsville, S.C.) got his season off to a

quality start in the Paladins’ 24-7 win over Elon on Aug. 31, recording seventackles, an interception, and a forced fumble on the way to earning leaguedefensive player-of-the-week honors. In the Paladins’ 19-13 win overWestern Carolina on Oct. 4, he came up big again with his secondinterception of the season and subsequent 28-yard return that set up thePaladins’ lone touchdown of the game. The pickoff against the Catamountswas the eighth of his career. He also blocked a field goal in the second halfto help the Paladins preserve a 19-7 lead. He has 54 tackles in nine games.A year ago he headlined a Paladin secondary that saw him register 57tackles, nine pass deflections, and a team leading six interceptions (alongwith All-America cornerback Rodney Johnson). Newton’s six pickoffs in2002, the second highest total in the league, were especially impressivebecause they came in the face of a Paladin pass rush that netted a conferencelow eight sacks. His younger brother, Syvelle Newton, is a freshmanfootball player this fall at the University of South Carolina.

◆ FURMAN LINEBACKERS MAKING THE PLAYS...Furman’slinebacking corps appears to be living up to its billing as the possibly league’sstrongest group as through eight games the Paladins’ three leading tacklersare linebackers. Leading the way is junior Mike Killian (Atlanta, Ga.)with a Southern Conference leading 123 tackles. Next are junior All-Southern Conference performer Cedrick Ritter (Fairfax, S.C.) andsophomore William Freeman (Swansea, S.C.), who have contributed72 and 68 tackles, respectively. Senior All-Southern Conference per-former Keito Whetstone (Orangeburg, S.C.), meanwhile, has con-tributed 39 stops despite being sidelined for three games after sustaininga sprained ankle in the Paladins’ 28-17 loss to Clemson on Sept. 6. In hisabsence, Freeman, in his first career start, stepped in and registered acareer high 14 stops, including two tackles-for-loss, in the 31-17 triumphover Richmond on Sept. 20 on the way to earning Southern ConferenceDefensive Player-of-the-Week honors. Since 1975 Furman has produced21 first team All-Southern Conference linebackers — the most of anyleague school.

◆ GUTSY START...Furman opened its Sept. 20 game against Rich-mond with a gutsy play — an onside kick, which the Paladins’ JonMacDonald (Greer, S.C.) recovered at the Spiders 48. From that pointFurman drove 33 yards to the Richmond 15 for a 32-yard field goal byDanny Marshall (Atlanta, Ga.) for an early 3-0 lead.

◆ NOT YOUR ORDINARY COMEBACK...When Furman sopho-more tailback Brandon Mays (Arden, N.C.) underwent surgery onOct. 30, 2002, for ulcerative colitis and spent two weeks in the hospital,a return to football looked bleak. After having approximately 90 percentof his large intestines removed and dropping from a pre-illness weight of190 pounds to 140, he endured two more procedures in early 2003,including reconstructive surgery. Unable to take part in spring practice InMarch due to his condition, he nonetheless attended every practice andoffered consistent encouragement to his teammates. Through dedicatedrehabilitation and the fortune of advanced medicine, Mays regained 52pounds (to 192), strength, and endurance, and completed his comeback byrushing 11 times for 49 yards and catching one pass for nine yards in thePaladins’ 24-7 win over Elon in the season opener on Aug. 30. Prior to hisillness a year ago he had appeared in four games and rushed 18 times for96 yards. As a prep at T.C. Roberson, he ran for 4,406 and 50 touchdownsin his career and was named Asheville Citizen-Times Offensive Player-of-the-Year after totaling 1,961 yards and 20 touchdowns his senior year.

◆ SOCON MAN...As head coaching tenures go, Bobby Lamb, whois now in his second season at the helm of the Paladin program, certainlydoesn’t qualify as a veteran, but when factoring in total years of associationwith Southern Conference schools, he could rightfully be considered adean of league head coaches. For Lamb, 40, the 2003 campaign marks his22nd season at Furman. That tenure includes four seasons as a player(1982-85), 16 years as an assistant coach (1986-01), and one season as head

coach (2002). No other league mentor can match that length of service toa league school.

◆ FAMILY...Very few coaching staffs can claim to be as close and knowthe school at which they work better than Furman’s. That’s because thePaladins’ entire coaching staff, with the exception of wide receivers coachDrew Cronic and defensive backs coach Jeff Farrington, is composed ofFurman graduates who enjoyed fine playing careers for the purple and whitebefore entering the coaching ranks. Furman’s staff includes defensive endscoach Julius Dixon '90, defensive line coach Allen Edwards '92, tightends coach Ben Hall ‘00, offensive line coach Clay Hendrix ‘86, headcoach Bobby Lamb ‘86, running backs coach Tim Sorrells ‘81, anddefensive coordinator/linebackers coach Steve Wilson ‘77. All told, thePaladins’ current coaching staff sports 81 years of collective coachingservice at Furman and, counting playing tenures, has combined for 109seasons of experience at the university.

◆ FATHER FIGURES...Junior Bo Moore (Madison, Ga.), Furman’sstarting quarterback for the first six games prior to injury, appears set tocarry on the Paladins’ well established tradition of producing successfulsignal callers who are the sons of high school head coaches. Starting withTim Sorrells (1977-81) and also including Bobby Lamb (1982-85),Philly Jones (1991-95) and, most recently, Billy Napier (1999-02),Furman has fashioned noteworthy success with quarterbacks who playedfor their fathers. Sorrells, who starred under his dad, Fred Sorrells, atJefferson County (Tenn.) High School, quarterbacked Furman to SouthernConference titles in 1980 & ‘81. Lamb, a former standout at Commerce(Ga.) High School under his father, Ray Lamb, later helped lead Furmanto a conference championship and NCAA I-AA runnerup finish in 1985.Jones, a three-year starter for the Paladins, played for his dad, Phil Jones,at Winder-Barrow (Ga.) High School, and Napier enjoyed a solid prepcareer under his father, Bill Napier, at Murray County (Ga.) High Schoolbefore coming to Furman, where he directed the Paladins to 2001 leaguetitle and national runnerup finish. Moore, meanwhile, fashioned a fine preptenure for his father, Kenny Moore, at Morgan County (Ga.) High Schoolbefore joining the Furman program in 2001.

◆ BROTHER ACT...Furman’s 2003 squad features three sets of broth-ers: Hindley and Grant Brigham (Birmingham, Ala.), twins Josh andJustin Stepp (Pelion, S.C.), and Lockwood and Austin Holmes(Jacksonville, Fla.). Hindley, a senior tailback, transferred to Furman in2001 following two seasons at Baylor and last year paced the Paladins inrushing with 762 yards and five touchdowns. Grant, a sophomore flanker/return specialist, joined the Paladin program this fall after spending the 2002campaign at Vanderbilt, where he lettered as a true freshman. Josh Stepp,the 2001 Shrine Bowl MVP, is redshirt freshman quarterback. BrotherJustin, meanwhile, is seeing plenty of action at flanker and as a punt returnspecialist. Lockwood Holmes serves as a reserve cornerback and memberof special teams while Austin will likely redshirt this fall, also as a cornerback.

◆ IMPRESSIVE LINEAGES...Sophomore linebacker Andrew Carson(Newnan, Ga.) is the brother of former Clemson All-America linebackerChad Carson. Andrew’s father, Tom Carson, played football at GeorgiaTech, and his grandfather, Earle Carson, was an end, three-year letterman,and an honorable mention All-American at Furman (1928-30). A greatuncle, M.A. Carson, was a two-time letterwinner as an offensive guard atFurman (1926-27), and another great uncle, Tom Carson, was an All-South offensive tackle selection and three-year letterman who serve ascaptain of Furman’s 1931 squad. True freshman defensive end TurnerBurton (Birmingham, Ala.) sports a strong Alabama Crimson Tide heri-tage. His great-grandfather, Fred Sington, was a two-time All-Americaoffensive tackle at Alabama, member of the Tide’s 1930 national champion-ship team, 1955 inductee into the National Football Foundation Hall-of-Fame, and member of the Alabama Sports Hall-of-Fame. Two of Burton’suncles, Dave Sington (1956-58) and Fred Sington, Jr. (1958-59), alsoplayed football for Alabama.

◆ LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON...Senior placekicker Danny Marshall(Atlanta, Ga.) is the son of former Paladin defensive end TommyMarshall (1974-76), who later served as an assistant coach on the Furmanstaff for eight years (1986-93), during which time the Paladins capturedthree conference titles and the 1988 NCAA I-AA national championship.
