You can add UOP to that list....

SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

UOP is expecting good things from newly promoted HC Ron Verlin, who kept the staff together, pretty much hiring only to replace himself as an assistant. The UOP board admin has been keeping track of recruiting. The Tigers have two '14 verbal commits and several others offered and rumored to be in the mix. The admin's also noted who the team has lost. Here it is.

This first year will likely look similar to last year under longtime head man Bob Thomason. Thomason often varied the offense based on available personnel, but preferred something of a halfcourt game, though the team has pretty much relied on the trey for decades. Look for that to continue for the short term, though Verlin will likely put his own stamp on the team fairly soon.

Hope to see them in the tournament.
