Eagles see double trouble in Bulls backfield

By Tim Doherty

The Clarion-Ledger

HATTIESBURG  Another week, another dangerous running back.

So it goes for the Southern Miss defense.

Thing is, the Golden Eagles will be facing a two-headed beast come Saturday evening when USM (2-0, 1-0 Conference USA) visits South Florida (2-1, 1-0) at 6 p.m at Raymond James Stadium.

The Golden Eagles had known about USF senior Clenton Crossley, who gained 441 yards and averaged 5.2 yards a carry last season while sharing backfield duties with the now-departed DeJuan Green.

But in last week's 45-44 double overtime victory at TCU, the Bulls unleashed a junior college transfer, Andre Hall, who rolled over the Horned Frogs for 119 yards and three touchdowns, while posting another 65 yards and a touchdown on four receptions.

"They've got two good backs," USM middle linebacker Dillon Cleckler said. "We've been watching them on the tape, and they're both good."

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.
