SUMMARY: The Crimson Tide opens against Western Kentucky on August 31st. Fred McNair, one of the greatest coaches in Alcorn State’s history, has joined Southern’s staff as the new tight ends coach. He initially pursued a position at Texas Southern, but after back-and-forth discussions, TSU chose another direction. Southern’s new head coach, Terrence Graves, brought McNair on board. Graves is in his first year as head coach and previously learned from Alcorn State legend Marino Casem. Graves values having experienced coaches on his staff and sees McNair as a significant asset.

The Southern Jaguars have a new head coach in Terrence Graves. He will be a first year head coach in the SWAC but he’s made key moves in terms of forming his staff.

SUMMARY: Christian artist TobyMac reflected on his evolving music style ahead of his performance at the Brandon Amphitheater. Rooted in hip hop, R\&B, and soul, he says his sound has mellowed over time, shaped by life’s ups and downs. Though he sometimes tires of older songs like “Speak Life,” their enduring message keeps them meaningful. He continues to blend new hits like “Cornerstone” and “I Just Need You” into his setlist, skipping “Good Morning” out of respect for collaborator Mandisa. TobyMac promises fans a joyful, diverse, and unified show experience, filled with both nostalgic favorites and fresh, relevant music.
