Georgia Southern cornerback Carson Hill, right, gets physical with receiver Lester Green during practice Wednesday.
You can’t go to a Georgia Southern practice without hearing the word “new” -- new offense, new defense, new coaches, new players and new positions, just to name a few. Safety Derek Heyden and cornerbacks Laron Scott and Carson Hill have had a bird’s-eye view of all the changes from the secondary and are some of the few veterans who actually are playing a position they’re used to. “I’m glad,” said Hill, who sat out 2009 but has played the same position since becoming an Eagle in 2006.
