Why NSU has a fighting chance
The Northwestern State Demons haven't held their first practice with anything resembling their 2008 club.
But, after running into assistant coach Bobby Barbier over the weekend, I have a feeling the Demons will bounce back just fine from their rough 2007 season.
I know all coaches are excited about the new players they bring in, but Barbier is a former Academic All-American and enjoyed a very solid four-year career at NSU. So he knows what he's talking about.
The hiring of J.P. Davis as the Demons head coach allowed Barbier and fellow assistant coach Jeff McCannon to keep their jobs and that should pay off handsomely down the road.
