This increase in power and strength also manifested itself in a vertical jump improvement from 36 inches to 39.5 inches. His standing long jump also improved from 9' 8 to 10' 1 feet.<br>Adalius improved his flexibility and with his speed and power increases, this combined improvement was the reason his 40-speed came down from 4.72 to 4.60, 20-speed from 2.74 to 2.58 and his pro-shuttle time from 4.68 to 4.48.<br>Adalius takes football and life seriously. He looked me in the eye,  I have never used drugs in my entire life. My father taught me about the harmful effects of drugs. I have seen what drugs have done to others. Peer pressure is only the pressure you put on yourself. You must be strong with no doubt. Say  no' like you are sure of yourself then people will let you alone. If you sound weak, they will keep on you. When I have kids, I want to be able to look them in the eye and say that I have never done drugs. I feel a deep responsibility to be a positive role model.<br> I also believe that without God there is no me or you. I believe in God 100 percent. I'm not as good as I should be but I'm better than I used to be. I like the ten commandments. If you keep them, then everything else falls into place. <br>We thank Coach Dudley and Coach Bowers. The University of Southern Mississippi is on the rise. With players like Adalius it is easy to understand. We thank Adalius for his great example. He is playing his song. His light is shining brightly. <br> <br>USMFOOTBALL<br><br>The University of Southern Mississippi football is on the rise. USM clinched a winning season in1994 with a thrilling season ending victory at LSU and the 1995 team posted consecutive road wins for another winning season. Then in 1996, Coach Jeff Bower guided his Golden Eagles to an 8-3 record and a share of the brand new Conference USA Championship. Last year, USM finished in sole possession of the Conference USA Crown, defeated Pittsburgh 41-7 in the Liberty Bowl and had a final national ranking of No. 19 in both polls.<br> Coach Bower stated,  I think we've improved a lot. We are getting kids like Adalius who want to work hard, want to get a good education, want to win and want to be unselfish. We have a solid nucleus of players who represent our University in a first class way.<br> There are only five programs in Division I-A who finished in the top 20 in football who are also in the top 20 in graduation rates. The University of Southern Mississippi is one of those teams. I think that says a lot about our program and where it is. <br>The Golden Eagles field teams in 16 intercollegiate sports. Roberts Stadium (football) seats 33,000 and Reed Green Coliseum seats more than 8,000. New facilities are in the works which include construction of a brand new field house and strength/conditioning facility.<br>  It is something that is long, long overdue, said Coach Bower,  and we'rebuilding the secondary. In our post-season staff meetings, an athlete whose name was only occasionally mentioned was Pat Curran. <br>As a sophomore, Pat had displayed varsity level ball skills and instincts, but at 145 pounds and with a 5.2 forty time, we didn t feel he could play at the varsity level. <br>Pat s off-season commitment to the BFS program changed these numbers to 165 pounds and 4.6 by the beginning of two-a-days in August, 2000. Pat not only won a starting position in our secondary, but he set a school record for interceptions in a season, including three in our 9WY$+s/6٢V[R'ë}=ǥkbjCDܲj*;՘  ̷-5bU]itC)ac'M_?b 4JNFu ) (LOFJ<(``@TFyzp228w>1_mA2iR%*w$ٹ?5_͇.5k=mm-SgTmZfu]4u%PֿԴu{[w=@.{vXV] oVɵKb F S^[S(ÿh+cWwljhH N1pd@y`VDsDD`O]b`uMx"\rclwv ]->rۅ[\֏i׷~oim ֶhYvf%t5mܧŠ-Xnt Z٫sbvY(l Um1_) *.)>(Z~^>@g'"1ʚzh ]:\ 9zvPӀ D'h/exb*cS9Ԃ>BчeL,N T^/p_av̥}HӺ{-n]KiƯn +m?峱{[znn/K3 rhkkKu{?۽շn쮻-]IܱtMmm|tVD+Jlc IrPO{R{7K77wdo-YVS iԴ #Vt F<]`fyg]&qǤXKEnG=<(1p٬ZIAtc]#5 fs,¢I w#{hShv4QzhmK)*ҮepNlomwߏ/ޣZ kmqB>*GwIz=q]8\,3yz~O䷡ךmnwZ{VνP FC7ܭE<.'B*3ܿgK˷ VwfKOi j0`2$}1EXLBZʠ'\;";k&v}ss1)ϲ^t&{>ثqxzisyXj rf{k ǿ ?u՗SEeiuk(XrrƎ?ӖX>ͼo*53BEGlUj[KҤu6$$e|ˊZt:eIRTsUӃ
