Coach Calhoun of the Move to Learn Initiative of Mississippi leads faculty members at Oxford Intermediate School in an exercise session in the school’s cafeteria Wednesday. OIS will be incorporating Move to Learn fitness videos into their classroom curriculum for the upcoming school year.

Move to Learn OIS adopts new initiative to get kids moving BY CHANING GREEN NEWS WRITER

Teachers at Oxford Intermediate School met in the cafeteria Wednesday afternoon to get moving and participate in a seminar to learn how to incorporate physical activity in the classroom. Representatives of the Move to Learn Initiative of Mississippi presented the seminar to faculty members who wanted to learn how to incorporate more physical fitness into their curriculum. Move to Learn is a Mississippi-based and is dedicated to getting students moving in the classroom. The group promotes the idea that doing this allows students to perform better socially and academically while decreasing absenteeism and building healthy habits that kids can take with

them for the rest of their lives. Move to Learn functions primarily as a resource for Mississippi teachers to draw on. Their website houses over 1,240 lesson plans that incorporate fitness and nutrition education into lessons designed to support Mississippi’s College and Career Ready Standards and Mississippi Frameworks put in place by the Mississippi Department of Education. The lesson plans are designed for individual grade levels and go from pre-k all the way up to seniors in high school. The website also has video content that can be streamed right from the site and features fitness coaches leading children in exercises in classrooms. The hope is that educators can put these videos on in their own classrooms and lead children in exercises. All of these re-

sources are available completely for free to anyone who wants to use them. The Bower Foundation funds Move to Learn and allows them to produce all of the videos. Coach Calhoun is the primary person appearing the videos. Calhoun has a master’s degree in education from Jackson State University and has taught fitness in the Clinton Public School District since 2002. He was one of the people who addressed the OIS teachers Wednesday afternoon where he shared both personal experience and research as to why he believes it is important for children to be physically active in their educational environment. “I think this is important for a number TURN TO MOVE PAGE 6

UM graduate puts love of travel to good use BY KATHRYN WINTER STAFF WRITER

One recent University of Mississippi graduate is enjoying her newly found Instagram fame, as her popular posts have helped people with the best travel and food tips throughout many major cities in Europe. Megan Richter, the self proclaimed “travel bug” goes by the handle Florence_foodie and has also started a blog to accompany her posts on Instaram. The aspiring nurse practitioner decided to study abroad in Florence, Italy, her junior year and has traveled to almost every country in Western and Central Europe. “My first trip to Europe I was going through my camera roll and most of my pictures were of foodso I decided to start an Instagram account dedicated to just my food posts,” Richter said. “I eat everything I take a picture of, I clean the plate every time. I do a lot of research to find these places.” During her time abroad, Richter was in Florence for four months. “That’s really when I got to travel all over was during my study abroad. I went to 15 countries, some of them were: Poland, Prague, Hungary, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, France, England, Germany, and Spain. I didn’t make it to Slovenia, Ireland or Portugal.” Originally from Newport Beach, California, Richter chose to come to Oxford to get away and to try something new. One thing that really attracted her to Ole Miss was the southern hospitality, the Grove, and how the university is still small enough to know people who work in stores and restaurants on the square. Richter’s favorite place to travel to is Italy. “I don’t really eat a lot of pasta here because it’s just not the same,” Richter said. “Italy and France are two of my favorites and they have the best food. I actually really en-

joyed London too- I thought I was going to hate it because you always hear that they have nasty food, but I liked it.” Another popular foodie Instagram, Food in the Air posted one of Florence_foodie’s pictures, and that’s when Richter really started to gain followers. Spoon University also posted one of her photos, and she was also spotted on Spoon University Ole Miss’ Instagram page. “My favorite tool to find good spots is Yelp, I actually use it a lot, but some countries don’t have it. Trip Advisor is also really good,” Richter said. “I love when people reach out and want recommendations — I really enjoy helping people have a better experience. I’ve probably planned half of my friend’s trips! I have people calling me like ‘I’m in this place, where should I go?’ and friends saying ‘I don’t know how I’d live without you!’ I had a friend fall asleep on a bus in Germany, she called me panicking and I had to get on the phone and help her get to Croatia.” When Richter is finished with school, she plans on writing on her blog everyday, and growing her foodie audience. “I love food but I also love Biology. A short-term goal for me is to become a nurse practitioner, but a long-term goal of mine is to own my own bakery,” she said. “I don’t just eat food and post about it, I also really love to cook and bake myself. One day I would really like to make a career out of this.” Richter has also traveled to Mexico, Canada, and the Bahamas. She’s already planning her next trip and would like to visit Southeast Asia and Australia. Usually on her trips abroad she likes to stay for two weeks or so. One adventure during her travels that she remembers is while she was on a crowded train, a woman bumped into her, forcing her to grab onto a pole to balance. Richter could feel someone trying

She realized what was happening and that her wallet was gone-so she started yelling at the lady who then took off running. “Me and about five of my friends were running after her and she got caught up in a crowd of people. A nice local grabbed my wallet back and tossed it to me all while in a pretty crowded metro station. I couldn’t believe I had gotten pickpocketed, but I really almost couldn’t believe I had gotten my wallet back” Richter said. “Nothing quite compares to the feeling you get when you hand over your passport and know you’re about to embark on an adventure, butterflies in your stomach and all. I am confident that my travel bug will never truly be satisfied, because with each new adventure brings so many new ideas of where to go next!” For more of Megan’s adventures follow her on Instagram @florence_foodie, or visit her blog florencefoodie.weebly.com.

Charger Booster Club bringing back Booster & Blues BY CHANING GREEN NEWS WRITER

The Oxford Charger Booster Club is putting the finishing touches on their upcoming fundraising event to make sure everyone can listen to some great music, dance and have a good time while supporting the booster club at their annual event Booster & Blues next Saturday at the Library on the Square. The Oxford Charger Booster Club is a parent-led organization that functions separately from the school district, working to support all high school and middle school sports teams. They host fundraisers and accept donations from the community. They work to provide needed athletic equipment that might not be able to fit in a team’s budget, purchase lettermen jackets and pay a portion of the cost of championship rings, as a reward for any of the teams that make it that far in their sport. Overall, the club supports 24

teams from the high school and 14 from the middle school, totaling to the support of 600 individual student athletes. Geoffrey Yoste serves as the vice president of the booster club. He has three children who have or currently are participating in Charger sports and says that he loves being able to contribute to their success and that of their teammates. “As a parent, whether you child is playing a sport, playing the piano, dancing, in a fishing tournament—there’s no greater joy that you can get than being able to watch your child compete,” Yoste said. “This is just one of those things where you love it so much, you want to be able to give back to the organization that allows them to do that. I enjoy being a part of it. The Friday night football is a big part of high school sports, but it’s more than just Friday night lights. It’s the swim meets, the softball matches in other towns, the travel— it’s about all these parents

who work tirelessly and give all their effort and time to help their kids to compete and be an Oxford Charger. It’s nice to be a part of an organization that supports all those kids.”

Even though the Booster & Blues event began just last year, it is already becoming the biggest source of revenue for the club. During last year’s event, the Charger Booster Club raised nearly $50,000 to

support Oxford athletics. This year, they have set a goal of $75,000. Yoste thinks they are gonna get there. Tickets are available for $50 each at University Sporting Goods, the Oxford School District’s Administrative Office on the campus of Oxford Middle School. There are levels above the $50 that people have the option of paying and they will get special bonuses like custom-made Oxford Charger apparel. There are also higher Blue and Gold level sponsorships available for business to purchase and they will receive special advertising and shoutouts during the actual event. Upon purchasing a ticket for the event, people will be asked which team they are supporting. The teams that get the most ticket sales will be awarded monetary prizes and a parent of a student on that team will be able to choose how that money be spent. The Library is donating the space for the concert. The

band that will be performing is known as the White Animals. Yoste describes them as a popular college cover band from the 90s who grew up, but still like to get together every now and then for a show. He said that he worked with Scott Caradine who runs Proud Larry’s to book the band for the booster club. Yoste said that some of the older parents are going to know every song and have a great time, while the younger parents are going to learn some new songs and still have a great time. All of the profits from the event go to benefit the athletes the booster club supports. Even a portion of the bar sales during the event go to benefit the club. The $50 gets people full access to the party as well refreshments being provided by local business including Rafter’s who is bring gumbo, My Guys supplying tenderloin biscuits and pizza from Funkys. chaning.green@journalinc.com Twitter: chaningthegreen

Robinson is looking forward to a great year at Della Principal LaTonya Robinson and her staff at Della Davidson Elementary School are getting ready to start the upcoming school year when kids resume classes Monday. Robinson is beginning her sixth year with the Oxford School District. She grew up in the Delta and attended Clarksdale High School. She went on to complete a bachelors and masters degree at the University of Mississippi, a specialist degree from the Delta State University and is now working to complete her Ph.D. After wrapping up a school-wide faculty meeting Friday morning, Robinson took the time to sit down with Oxford Citizen reporter Chaning Green and talk about the upcoming school year. CHANING GREEN: How long have you been at Della? LATONYA ROBINSON: I’ve been here for two years. This year, I’ll be starting year three. GREEN: How long have you been with the Oxford School District? ROBINSON: This is year six for me and I’m very excited to still have my assistant principal by my side. I was at Oxford Elementary for three years and then I have completed two years here, so this I am no beginning my sixth year with the district. Ms. Bigham and I came over from OES together, along with Ms. Maxwell, our guidance counselor. The thing I love about being a part of Oxford and my school in particular is the she amount of knowledge and content

bunch that’s coming through. I also love to see my fourth graders come back in because they’re always quick to say hello and excited to see us. They come in the door knowing who I am, and that’s always a good thing. They come to the open house, run up and hug me. I’m also looking forward to being in the classroom more with the teachers this year. We, as principals, are so busy in the district sometimes, especially last year, that I often got so caught up that I didn’t have the chance to go out and be in the classroom as much as I would’ve liked. I’m looking forward to that. I’m looking forward to seeing the learning take place. Perhaps even sitting at the table with some of the kids while they’re learning and seeing when that light bulb moment takes place. CHANING GREEN | OXFORD CITIZEN

A computer generated image of what the Tru by Hilton hotel would look like at night. One of these hotels will be opening in the Oxford Commons in November 2017.

New hotel coming to Oxford Commons CHANING GREEN NEWS WRITER

Oxford’s newest hotel is going currently being planned to be both affordable and specifically designed for millennials. Tru by Hilton is a new concept that was developed by Hilton Worldwide to specifically target young professionals. The hotel will be located in the Oxford Commons area, adjacent to the Malco movie theater, and will have 118 rooms specially designed for this niche customer base of people born between the years 1985 to 2000. As of yet, not a single hotel of this kind by this company exists yet. Designs and modifications for the hotel are still being finalized. Charter Road Hospitality Incorporated is the hospitality management company that is building the hotel. The company was founded in Oxford over two decades ago and is headed up by Chief Executive Officer MV Patel. They own and manage four major hotels in Oxford including two Hampton Inns, Holiday Inn Express and the Towne Place Suites by Marriot. Tru by Hilton is one of their latest ventures. Charter Road’s Chief Operations Officer Janet Watkins said that her company chose to move forward with building this hotel because they were confident in the research they company is putting into the design of the hotel as well as the need it will fill as Oxford continues to grow. “We felt like there was a need in the market for a good, yet a budget friendly brand,” Watkins said. “We anticipate a lot of growth in this part of town. All around the Conference Center and the Oxford Commons, we’re expecting it to grow quite a bit in the next few years and people are going to need more options when looking for a place to stay.” The public space of the hotel will be called the “Hive” and feature unique furniture and amenities. The Hive is divided into different zones known as the “Command Center/Market” where guests can check in and out of the hotel as well as purchase any beverages or snacks the hotel has available. The Command Center is a circular desk located in the center of this zone. Food items available for purchase are around the desk and a wall behind it. The other zones in the Hive are the lounge area, a place to eat and a work area complete with sound resistant cubicles. Early design workups have furniture that

would not be found in a typical hotel. The early plans for the furniture across different zones of the Hive include high-backed sofas, sound resistant privacy seating, hammocks, mobile television units, foosball tables and more. Though the hotel is targeted to specifically attract millennials, their marketing materials show people of all ages appearing to enjoy the space and amenities within. The hotel will focus on having extremely fast and reliable internet service available to guests. Plenty of outlets to make sure that everyone’s devices stay charged. A fitness room is also included in the plans for the building. Model photos show the room including treadmills, free weights, an elliptical and space for stretching and yoga. Employees of Charter Road Hospitality were given a tour of a model hotel that was constructed in Memphis. The model was not an actual hotel, but rather model rooms constructed to show companies what the hotel would look like and encourage them to invest in building and owning one. Chief Financial Officer for Charter Road, Joel Reeves said that they as a company felt positively about the early mockups of the hotel. He said they trusted the amount of research and testing Hilton has put into the testing of the design and how willing everyone was to listen to any of the questions or concerns they had about the spaces. “Honestly, Hilton has been so receptive to anything we had to say, and were often already one step ahead of us,” Watkins said, echoing Reeves’ sentiments. “We met with their Director of Focused Service Brands with the Architecture, Design and Construction team, Robbie Mosley, and she expressed that the designers were already addressing all of the issues that we could think to bring up. Obviously, the market studies they’ve been doing with millennials are reflecting what people this age would like to see in a hospitality environment. I feel very confident in the design, knowing the amount of research and flexibility the company is putting into it.” Charter Road Hospitality said there is no date set for when they will break ground on the project, but they are planning to begin this fall. They are planning to have the hotel open and operational by November 2017. chaning.green@journalinc.com Twitter: chaningthegreen

BRIEFING

Move FROM 1

of reasons,” Calhoun said. “The first reason I think it’s important is that we send the message that learning can be fun and that learning is not something that’s punitive. I think it’s also important that we share the message of movement. The human body was meant for movement. When we move things get better, but it gets better from both a physical and cognitive standpoint. What Move to Learn does is offer teachers the opportunity to engage children in a fun way that doesn't seem like a punishment.” Nikki Logan is the intervention coordinator for OIS and said that she is excited to be adding Move to Learn to the daily routine at OIS. “It was a treat to have Coach Calhoun give his testimony about how teachers impacted his life and allowed movement to help keep him focused and disciplined,” Logan said. “Move to Learn is a fabulous resource for the state of Mississippi and we are lucky to have the support from The Bower Foundation and MDE. Our staff left the training inspired to make this part of our efforts at OIS to keep kids active and improve learning.” Mary Martha Crowe is a sixth grade Insights teacher at OIS. She said that she is very much looking forward to using the program in her classroom as a way to help students get moving

A representative of the Move to Learn Initiative of Mississippi presents research from Mississippi universities showing the benefits of incorporating breaks of physical activity in a classroom setting. and help them out of their “afterlunch slump” that Crowe said can happen from time to time. “I’m excited to use Move to Learn in my gifted classes,” Crowe said. “Last year, in some of my classes, I had students voluntarily do exercises when they felt fatigued or needed to get up and moving. So having the Move to Learn resources available

will be a fun, engaging, and positive way to get students active. I plan to use the Move to Learn program when I notice students need a pick-me-up during class, need to release extra energy, or when they’ve had to sit for a while.” chaning.green@journalinc.com Twitter: chaningthegreen

The UM division of Outreach will be hosting a class next month to teach Spanish to local healthcare professionals. The class is designed to give those in the health care field the tools they need to properly help those in the community who speak Spanish and might not have the full English vocabulary needed to ask and answer the right questions. The class is priced at $85. For more information, visit www.outreach.olemiss.edu/communiversity

OM's Erb reflects on a busy summer as he prepares for cross country t’s been a busy summer for Ole Miss junior MJ Erb. After competing in the 3,000 meter steeplechase at the NCAA Track & Field Championships in June, Erb was back in Eugene, Oregon a month ago trying to make Team USA. He did everything he could to make it to the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Erb finished 15th overall in the trials. Instead of taking some time off, Erb was back on the track, competing in the NACAC U-23 Championships held in El Salvador. Erb won a silver medal a week after making into the finals of the Olympic trials. The first-team All-American finished his race with a time of 9 minutes, 12.25 seconds. “I felt pretty good. The Olympic trials didn’t go how I necessarily wanted them to go. We’re all pretty competitive. It was nice to be in the final, obviously. We don’t take that for granted because I know there were a lot of people who wanted to be in that final,” Erb said. “I was lucky enough to be in that final but after making it to that final, we expect a lot from ourselves and disappointing not to be able to go out and compete necessarily. Looking back it in hindsight, it was a pretty good season.” This past season was Erb’s first in Oxford. He came to Ole Miss from Syracuse and after running a little during the indoor season in 2015, he shut things down after being diagnosed with mononucleosis. “I tried to compete in outdoor in 2015 but just as I was about to start making the comeback, I ended up stepping on a rail and we just decided to redshirt the season,” Erb said. “I started 2016 with cross country and that didn’t necessarily go that well. I was expected to do a lot and

Amory native Addie Forbus (25)Í is set to begin her final season as a member of the Ole Miss soccer team.

Strong Finish Forbus ready to end her OM career on great note BY JOHN DAVIS SPORTS EDITOR

A little over a week ago, Addie Forbus finished her last summer conditioning workout as an Ole Miss Rebel. This past Thursday, the senior from Amory started her final set of preseason practices with the team. “It doesn't seem real to have one more semester to play here,” Forbus said about heading into 2016. “It is exciting to think that this one will be our best one yet, but it doesn't seem real that I've played three seasons here. I feel like I just go here.”

Before Forbus arrived in Oxford, she was the most decorated high school player in the state of Mississippi, with 231 goals scored. Despite all the accolades, Forbus didn't come in with any expectations in the sense of making it to a certain round or to a championship in postseason play. “I think that played in my favor. If you would have told me that my senior year in high school, that in two or three years you were going to make it to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament, I would have probably looked at you like you were crazy,” Forbus said. “It's definitely been more than I could have

hoped for or expected.” The win over Clemson to advance in the NCAA Tournament was a big one, but Forbus said it was tough to top the win over Texas A&M last season because it came on the road in front of such a hostile crowd. A&M paid the Rebels back by beating them in the SEC and NCAA Tournaments, so this year's meeting is highly anticipated. “You know what to expect when you play against them. That doesn't make it any easier but we're not scared of A&M and we've shown that we can beat them at any location,” Forbus said. “I'm definitely excited to play

them again. We're out for some revenge against them. We know we're the better team and we're capable of beating them. It was great beating them in front of their fans and now it's time to do it in front of ours.” Forbus is a completely different player since she left Amory. She is a different player since arriving in Oxford, saying she has learned new things each season. “I think each year, I've picked up on something that was lacking in the previous year,” she said. “Hopefully this fourth and final year will be just a culminaTURN TO FORBUS PAGE 13

QB Club holds successful Kickoff Meeting BY JOHN DAVIS SPORTS EDITOR

Ole Miss football has been on the national radar for the past few seasons due to trips to the Chick-fil-A Bowl and the Sugar Bowl. The turnout at Friday night's annual QB Club Kickoff Meeting proved that Ole Miss fans enjoy supporting a winner. Almost 600 people attended the event at the Manning Center to hear Hugh Freeze talk about the team heading into the start of summer camp. Athletics director Ross Bjork also spoke, as did coordinators Dan Werner and Dave Wommack. Lee Meek, the president of the QB Club, said silent auction raised the most money it has at any event. The powder blue helmet signed by Archie Manning sold for $1,500. “We would be doing good if we had 500 and we had 575 and had seating for 600 and

other bills, but I think we're going to come out doing pretty good. This was probably one of our most successful kickoff meetings.” Freeze didn't address the NCAA investigation, but he did talk about the winning and how people have taken notice and how the Rebels are one of the relevant programs now. “He said that's why people are saying things about us and after us because we're right up there with them and we have the players that can play,” Meek said. “His speech was more upbeat and about the kids with fall camp starting and what they were doing to have a successful season. Ross went back to 2012 and gave a lot of figures and all the things that have changed like how much more the budget was and that was real interesting to see what had increased in the four years since he's been here.” All money raised goes towards support-

ing the football budget, or buying things that aren't covered by the administration. Each of the membership dues is tax deductible, and anyone who is not a member can join online at www.omqbclub.com. Even if people can attend the monthly meetings held during football season, the money raised from memberships still makes an impact. “We tell them it's joining to help the football program and the meetings are just one of the perks of being a member,” Meek said. “Both Hugh and Ross both thanked us for the support over the years and for the things that weren't in the budget. And Hugh said if each person in here knows one person that's not a member, they needed to get them to join the club.” john.davis@journalinc.com Twitter: @oxfordcitizenjd

All-American hired to help coach OM Rifle

FROM OXFORD CITIZEN REPORTS

Hannah Black, who recently wrapped up an AllAmerican career at TCU, has joined the Ole Miss rifle program as assistant coach. A native of Richmond, Virginia, Black earned AllAmerica honors in smallbore and air rifle in 2015 and 2016. She helped lead the Horned Frogs to a runner-up finish in the NCAA Championships last season and third place in 2015. “I am so excited to have Hannah join the program as our assistant coach,” Ole Miss head coach Marsha Beasley said. “She has spent the last four summers as a coach with the Civilian Marksmanship Summer Camp Program. That expe-

rience combined with her outstanding college career at TCU and accomplishments as a member of the U.S. National Team will be invaluable to us.” Black led TCU in 2016 with an average aggregate of 1173 and ranked fourth in air rifle at 591.23 and second in smallbore at 581.77. “I am really happy and excited to be part of the Ole Miss Family,” Black said. “The people I have met so far have been great and the facilities are exceptional. I am also honored to have the opportunity to work with Coach Beasley. Her knowledge and coaching track record are second to none. I’m excited for this opportunity and will work very hard to help bring a

national championship to Ole Miss.” As a freshman in 2012-13, Black became the first Horned Frog since 2006 to qualify as an individual for the NCAA Championships and earned a fifth-place finish with a 594 in air rifle. Black also has experience on the international stage. She earned a fifth-place finish in the Pan American Games in Toronto in 2015. In the fall of 2014, Black competed in the Championship of the Americas in Guadalajara, Mexico as well as the World Cup in Changwon, Korea in April of 2015. She also took part in the USA World Cup in Fort Benning, Ga., and the Munich World Cup in May of 2015.

tion of everything I've learned and it will all come together.” Last season was the best of Forbus' career so far. She was named First Team AllSEC after scoring 11 goals and posting seven assists. She ranked in the top 10 of nearly every single offensive category in the SEC as a junior. Over the past two years, Forbus has scored 18 goals and 11 assists, numbers that are at the top or right at the top of the list for the Rebels. The thing that has improved the most for Forbus since she arrived on campus was her mental game. “I think that's had the biggest impact. I get out of my own head when I play. I have a short term memory and just a well rounded place in my mind,” Forbus said. Soccer has always been in the life of Forbus. She first started playing, or kicking a soccer ball, when she was 3. Forbus didn't start playing soccer to do it as a professional or make money. If that chance is presented,

then she will take it. “It's part of me. It's my innate character, my nature. It comes so natural to me. It's instinct to play soccer,” she said. “I don't know life without soccer. At the same time, I have learned that I'm a person outside of soccer. Not to contradict that soccer has been a huge part of my life, but it's not my identity, it's my passion.” Since the first day as a Rebel, Gretchen Harknett and Forbus have been tightly bonded. They lived together for two years and Forbus said the two were like sisters. “When we're together, it's just constant laughing, non stop goofing off and smiling. There is no filter with each other,” Forbus said. “We're just ourselves with each other.” Ole Miss enters the season ranked No. 22 in the nation in the NCSAA preseason poll. The belief is the Rebels will have another strong season, and Forbus is going to do her best to help accomplish that. “I think over the last four years, what has changed the most, is our belief in ourselves. We're capable of

PAGE 13

beating top teams and not only have other people said that, we've proven that and started to believe that,” Forbus said. “I think that's really powerful. Also, our neverback-down mindset has really grown stronger.” There is a goal that Forbus scored that feels better than any other during her career. That one came against Auburn last season, and it was for a “plethora” of reasons. “One, it was a cross from Gretchen and she has been through this whole journey with me. We came in together and an assist from her made it all the better,” Forbus said. “Scoring off a header is pretty exciting. It's not your typical goal. And at the time, beating one of the top 10 teams in the country, it was a pretty great feeling to put in two goals against them. That was pretty awesome.” Ole Miss players will take part in “Meet the Rebels Day” this coming Saturday. They open the season Aug. 19 against LouisianaLafayette. JOSH MCCOY | OLE MISS ATHLETICS

Deuce to add color analysis for Saints BY PARRISH ALFORD DAILY JOURNAL

Deuce McAllister won’t enjoy calling out coaches and players, some of which were former teammates. But a color analyst has to do what a what a color analyst has to do. McAllister, the former Ole Miss star, is with the New Orleans Saints in training camp in West Virginia this week preparing for his new job as the booth analyst alongside long-time play-by-play voice Jim Henderson for WWL-AM. McAllister is replacing another former Saints running back, Hokie Gajan, who died of cancer in the spring after serving as color analyst for 15 years. Facing a linebacker after a busted assignment in the locker room will be no more fun than facing one at the line of scrimmage without a blocker in front, he says. “That’s probably the toughest part, not only the players but the coaching staff as well just because you do have a relationship with most of those guys. A couple of them I played with. You’re still friends with a lot of them. I’d much rather to brag on them and congratulate them than to call out a player for his play or a staff member for a questionable call.” When duty calls McAllister will respond. WWL (870) is the flagship station for Saints broadcasts and doesn’t hide its affection for the team but also does not distort the picture it must describe.

we were expected to do a lot as a team. Things didn’t really go our way, I ended up not running very well at conference and nationals fueled the fire.” It was during the most recent indoor season that Erb started to figure some things out in regards to his running. After some shaky moments, things started to go in the right direction for a very good outdoor season. “A lot of the time, in each race in cross country and indoor, I was mentally drained after each disappointing performance. I think part of it was mentality. I wasn’t as hungry to compete,” Erb said. “I remember in outdoor that even in the first few meets I struggled. We knew that I was in pretty good shape, it just wasn’t coming together in races. I think the defining moment in my season was at Stanford. I had a really, really close race.” Erb sat down with his coach, Ryan Vanhoy, and changed things up one last time. After that, races and results improved. For those that aren’t familiar with the steeplechase, it’s a draining race. There are five barriers to go over each lap and Erb said that is a mental exercise in itself. “You’re running pretty hard and then

“They expect you to be a professional, and that’s part of it. It comes with the territory. Obviously when the team is winning and doing well it’s better for us, but at the end of the day you have to do a job, and if it’s to be critical that’s what you have to do,” McAllister said. The Saints selected McAllister in the first round with the 23rd pick in 2001. He went on to play nine seasons and become the career rushing leader for the franchise with 6,096 yards and 49 touchdowns in 97 games. He has other business ventures in the city including a French Quarter restaurant called “Ole Saint” and interest in several P.J.’s Coffee Houses. McAllister provided analysis for a couple of road games last year while Gajan was battling the disease. McAllister was the station’s immediate choice to replace Gajan, WWL Operations and Programming Director Diane Newman said. McAllister also served as a sideline reporter for several broadcasts last year. A former Morton High School star, he remains the career rushing leader for Ole Miss with 3,060 yards and 37 touchdowns from 1997-2000. “I still follow, I’m still a fan,” he said. “I know they start camp in a couple of days. Their first five games will be the test. If they can get through those with a winning record they can be pretty special.” COURTESY PHOTO

chase since he was in the eighth grade so he is familiar with it. He was pushed towards that event by the older guys that he looked up to on his team. One of those runners actually competed in the 2008 Olympic trials, and that was another thing that wanted him to try the event. Up next for Erb is the 2016 cross country season. Ole Miss is expected to do well, but as Erb said, preseason favorites don’t always pan out that way. “Sometimes you’re working so hard to get that top spot that you wear yourself out during the season. There is a lot of room for error and once you make that error, you won’t know until it’s too late to correct it,” Erb said. “Last year was huge for us. We came in ranked in the top 10 by a lot of people and we came in fourth or fifth. We did some things right and some things wrong. We have one more year of experience this year and Coach Vanhoy is very intelligent. He looks at the whole picture and I do think this is going to be a pretty good COURTESY OLE MISS ATHLETICS year.
