Gentry states,  We have a comprehensive program utilizing strength/power training, plyometrics, sprint conditioning and flexibility training. Our goal is to become one of the most physical teams in the nation. <br>Mike Gentry has been the Hokie s strength coach for twelve years and has developed quite a tradition of intensity. Corey has added to that intensity.  During his initial visit I thought Corey would be a linebacker; I remember thinking that he was too small. He was 6-0 and 205 at the time. What I did not know was the desire and commitment that Corey possesses. At defensive end, he uses his speed, quickness and strength to defeat much larger offensive tackles. When Corey is in full pass rush it is very difficult for a 300-pound lineman to stop him. Either they hold him or Corey is on the quarterback. <br>Corey now has a Bench Press of 420 lbs., a Squat of 650 lbs., a Hang Clean of 345 lbs., a Power Clean of 316 lbs. and a Push Jerk of 341 lbs.. Corey s weight has climbed to 218 lbs. with a Vertical Jump of 38.5 and a forty time of 4.55 seconds. He is bigger, faster and stronger!<br> When I go into the weight room, said Corey with conviction,  It is like the classroom, football or anything else. It is all business. I am very serious. We have a great weight program so I just do what Coach Gentry says plus some extra work on my own. Coach Gentry has made the difference in my career. He is the best in the country. Jim Whitten, our assistant strength coach, is also great. He helps me all of the time. <br>Corey believes that to be successful you must live good principles.  Surround yourself with people who care about you, Corey said.  Set high goals and live your dream. Work hard. Be your own person and strive to do what s right. Don t be influenced easily by things that won t help you. Be aware of what his great example. He is playing his song. His light is shining brightly. <br> <br>USM FOOTBALL<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 teamposted 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 Championhip. 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 theortant parts of my life. I believe it is important to be willing to live a Christian manhood like life. I also want that for my friends and teammates. <br>Corey remains politically active with his fraternity. He is involved in various activities and is a representative in several school councils. He plans to finish his degree in finance by his senior year and then go to law school. Presently, Corey is looking into a career as a football sports agent, however,  It is not a primary goal. If it happens, I will step up to the plate. But, it is always going to be law school first and then sports agent. <br>Once again, many thanks to Mike Gentry for sharing Corey s inspiring story.<br><br>_______________________<br><br> Surround yourself with people who care about you, set high goals and live your dream.
