First Look
The Chattanooga Mocs stepped in front of the bright lights and cameras again this week to talk about heading into the second half of the Southern Conference schedule. The third-place Mocs have quite the gauntlet ahead with second-place Western Carolina this week followed by fourth-place Furman and leader Mercer.

It's Homecoming Week with everyone's favorite NFL Hall of Famer Terrell Owens in town. As always, there's a large range of activities for students and alumni to celebrate past and present focused on Saturday's kickoff against the Cats.

About the Speakers
- Coach Rusty Wright is not only the head coach, but he's also an alum. The 1996 graduate is in his seventh season at his alma mater and is one of just five all-time to win 40+ games in the Mocs hot seat.
- Wright is second all-time at Chattanooga in SoCon wins (32) and 5th in total (41). He is three behind Joe Morrison and Buddy Nix.
- WR Jamarii Robinson is on quite a run. Three of his last four catches have been touchdowns from 20, four and 42 yards out. He averages a TD every fourth catch this season.
- LB Zion Rutledge is the Mocs leader in tackles with 66. His 8.3 per game ranks third in the SoCon and is 46th nationally.

Coach Wright started the event and was followed first by Rutledge and then Robinson.
