Tim brown career stats’s coleman lions golden

After starting the season 0-3, Coleman’s Golden Lions start
their second season tonight when they travel to Alcorn State for a
matchup with their Southwest Athletic Conference cohorts in a game to
be televised by ESPNU. Though the teams play in the same conference,
the game doesn’t actually count as a conference game. But that
doesn’t matter to Coleman, who is treating it like one just the
same.“We’re not telling our players it’s not a SWAC
game,” Coleman said. “It’s a SWAC game. We want to
win all SWAC games.”And the Golden Lions just might have a
newfound confidence to help them do just that. After struggling
mightily in their first two games of the season, both losses to NCAA
Division II members Arkansas-Monticello and Henderson State, the
Golden Lions stayed close to a very talented Central Arkansas team
Saturday. The Bears entered the Claw and Paw Classic as the 19th-
ranked team in the Football Championship Subdivision. The Golden Lions
limited UCA quarterback Nathan Brown, who entered as the leading
collegiate passer in state history, to only 181 yards through the
air.The Golden Lions will have a similar test today. Coleman said
Alcorn State quarterback Tim Buckley is a run-pass threat. Through
three games, Buckley, a junior from Madison, Miss., has thrown for 389
yards and rushed for 95 more. Though his stats aren’t extremely
eye-popping, Coleman, who also serves as the Golden Lions’
defensive coordinator, said Buckley would have to be contained if his
team had any chance for victory.

“That makes it very hard,” said Coleman of Buckley’s
running ability. “You don’t usually account for the
quarterback. With a quarterback that can do those things, it makes us
have to change the gameplan some.”But Buckley’s legs
aren’t his only weapon. The junior has completed 51 percent of
his passes on the young season, including completions to 11 different
receivers. Elliott Moore has been his favorite target thus far,
gaining 150 yards on 16 receptions.“They’re a 60/40 (pass-
to-run ratio) team,” Coleman said. “Their quarterback has
a good, accurate arm. They’re a spread offense, and
they’re very effecient. They run three wide receiver or five
wide receiver (sets).”Aimed with stopping the balance of the
Braves (0-3) is a UAPB squad that’s coming off arguably its best
game of the season. Though it surrendered 41 points to UCA Saturday,
the Bears scored 13 points off of UAPB mistakes.Linebacker Tim Turner
leads the defensive charge for the Golden Lions. The senior from
Little Rock leads UAPB with 34 tackles on the season.Meanwhile, UAPB
will counter with an offense that had its most productive game against
UCA. A unit that failed to mount much of a charge in its first two
games, the Golden Lions’ offense attacked UCA with big gains
from running back Mickey Dean and Martell Mallett. The duo combined to
rush for 204 yards. As a team, the Golden Lions gained 216 yards on
the ground, after gaining less than 220 yards of total offense against
Henderson State the week before.“It’s a mind thing
now,” said Coleman of the way his team played agains the Bears.
“They’ve shown us what they can do. That’s what I
anticipate every week. I’m sure they’ll answer the call of
the bell.”But Coleman still knows victory won’t come easy.
Though the Braves have been outscored 128-28 in three games this
season, Coleman knows victory isn’t guaranteed.“The thing
I’ve noticed is they’ve moved the football,” Coleman
said. “Their record doesn’t indicate the type of team they
are.”Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. with ESPNU airing the
game to a national television audience.

The jigsaw simpson mcclinton robbery

The prosecution in OJ Simpson’s armed robbery and kidnapping trial has
rested with a key witness reiterating that the former sports star told
him to “pull out your gun and look menacing” right before
the heated confrontation at the centre of the trial.

Michael McClinton, one of the five men with Simpson during an alleged
robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers, concluded two days on the
witness stand by insisting the former American footballer asked him to
bring a gun along to the incident.

”He (Simpson) wanted me to come with my weapon,” McClinton
told the court. At this, the 61-year-old retired NFL star, who was sat
with his lawyers in court, shook his head.

The issue is central to the case as Simpson, who denies 12 charges
including armed robbery, kidnapping and assault with a deadly weapon,
contends he never asked any of the men with him to bring weapons and
did not see any during the confrontation.

Much of Monday’s session was taken up with cross-examination of
McClinton in which the defence tried to point out inconsistencies in
his testimony about the incident last September at the Palace Station
hotel in Las Vegas.

Prosecutors allege Simpson and his cohorts stole hundreds of items of
memorabilia from dealers Bruce Fromong and Alfred Beardsley in a
gunpoint raid.

Gabriel Grasso, Simpson’s lawyer, also drew attention to the fact
McClinton admitted secretly taping a conversation with Simpson on the
night of the alleged robbery with a view to selling it to the
“tabloids”.

And he grilled McClinton about why he did not tell police in an
interview a month after the incident that Simpson had told him to
bring guns.

”It may have slipped my mind,” McClinton responded.
“But Mr. Simpson knew I had a gun. He read my concealed weapons
permit.” The prosecution responded by noting McClinton told
investigators at the time that Simpson asked him to come along and act
as “security” after looking at his concealed weapons
permit and asking if he had his gun with him.

McClinton, who testified he brought along one firearm and gave a
second to another man involved in the incident, has pleaded guilty to
reduced charges in exchange for his testimony against Simpson and his
co-defendant, Clarence Stewart.

Stewart has also pleaded not guilty to the same 12 charges that carry
a potential life sentence.

Simpson, who was dramatically cleared of murdering his ex-wife and her
friend in 1995, claims the confrontation was not a robbery but an
attempt to recover stolen personal property that the dealers were
trying to sell.

McClinton’s testimony concluded two weeks of prosecution evidence.
Much of the district attorney’s case hinges on an audiovisual jigsaw
of CCTV footage and covert tape recordings as well as several
witnesses who have confessed to crimes.

Four of Simpson’s alleged cohorts, including McClinton, have struck
plea deals. One of them, Walter Alexander, also testified that Simpson
asked him and McClinton to bring guns, or “some heat”, to
the meeting with the dealers.

Both Alexander and another of the men, Charles Ehrlich, testified they
heard Simpson at one point say “put the guns away” or
“put the gun down” during the incident.

But Thomas Riccio, the broker who set up the meeting with the dealers
and provided key prosecution evidence in the form of secret recordings
of the incident and conversations with Simpson, said there was no
mention of guns in the room.

Several of the witnesses also testified Simpson stressed that any
items taken that did not belong to him should be returned to Mr
Beardsley and Mr Fromong.

During Monday’s testimony, the defence offered its own transcript of a
recording McClinton made of Simpson and other men at a restaurant
hours after the alleged robbery. McClinton acknowledged differences
between the two transcripts.

According to the prosecution version, Simpson at one point says,
“this ain’t no major crime” and at another, “I told
C.J (Stewart), do me a favour get me some boys. I just want them to
look menacing”.

He is also heard talking about needing to come up with a good story
for the police and telling McClinton,”You didn’t pull the piece
out in the hall,” to which McClinton replies, “No, no, no,
no, no, no, hell no.”

The defence opened its case by recalling a police sergeant who
interviewed Simpson at his hotel after the former footballer gave his
phone number to police enabling them to set up a meeting. Rod Hunt, of
the Las Vegas police department, described Simpson as “very
cordial”, “talkative” and gentlemanly during the 90
minute conversation.

Rowe examines the case for and against religion.
