Dwayne Jarrett spoke to the media for first time since being arrested for DUI. He didn't specifically address the arrest, but did talk about football and trying to bounce back from a disappointing rookie season.

   "I think I've improved so much in the last year and now I'm taking it one step at a time," Jarrett said. "I'm paying more attention to detail. Everybody is talented at this level, so you have to take care of the little things. And that is what I've been doing this off-season is working out and learning the playbook. It's so much easier than last year."

   when asked to put last year in perspective, Jarrett said, "It's a whole learning transition thing. The whole thing, jsut becoming a pro, learning the program, learning the new atmosphere. It's all a near learning experience. I went through the trials and tribulations last year and this year I'm looking up and up for things to go good."

   Check back with the Carolina Growl soon as I'll post a story on Jarrett in a little while. Also, I will update my blog following an interview with Steve Smith.
