Head Coach Jay Mills Jay Mills is entering his fifth season at the helm of the Buccaneers’ ship, taking the Buccaneers from a 1-11 mark in 2003 to a Big South Conference championship in 2005, and a school-record nine wins in 2006. Last year, Mills helped lead the Buccaneers to the nation’s second-longest winning streak at 14 games, garnering their first national ranking in school history. Following the 2005 season, Mills was named the 2005 Big South Conference Coach of the Year, and the Buccaneers were named the “Team of the Year” by collegesports.com. During his tenure at CSU, the Buccaneers have literally rewritten the record books offensively. Under his direction, CSU quarterback Collin Drafts became the school’s all-time leading passer and all-time leader in total offense in only three seasons. Mills is recognized nationally as a top offensive mind, having operated highly successful passing offenses at Harvard and Boise State University prior to becoming CSU’s head coach. Mills served as the Crimson’s quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator for seven seasons, leading the school to high national rankings for total offense and establishing numerous school records. In 2001, Harvard committed the fewest turnovers of any Division I-AA school and ranked 11th nationally in total offense. In 2000, Harvard set school records for passing yards (2,885) and total yards (4,679). During those two seasons, eight offensive players earned All Ivy League honors. After serving three seasons as a graduate assistant at Notre Dame, one year under former South Carolina head coach Lou Holtz, Mills was named quarterbacks and passing game coordinator at Boise State. Mills helped guide Boise State to a pair of NCAA Division IAA playoff appearances, including a berth in the national semifinal game in 1990. Boise State was ranked second nationally in total offense in 1987. Mills’ experience as a head coach came at the University of Minnesota Morris, where he helped lead the program from NAIA status to NCAA Division II status in 1993. Mills and his wife, Kimberly, reside in Goose Creek and are the parents of six children; Stacey Jo (23), Josh (19), Jared (18), Chris (16), Derek (15) and Eddie (10).

2007 Football Outlook After the most successful season in school history, including the first-ever national ranking, the secondlongest winning streak in the country at 14 games, and a school record nine wins, the Bucs will try to continue the upward trend, despite losing some of the most prolific players in school history. The Buccaneers will, for the most part, return the entire defense in tact. The offense is not the same story, missing some of the key components from the past few seasons. Most notably, 2005 Offensive Player of the year and 2006 all-conference quarterback Collin Drafts, wide-out Bryant Burch, who signed with the CFL’s Calgary Stampeders, and wide receiver Maurice Price, who signed a free agent contract with the Kansas City Chiefs after leading the country in receiving in 2006. “Still in our infancy as a university and a football program, team CSU moves forward at an ever increasing rate,” said Head Coach Jay Mills. “We are thankful for the blessings and lessons of the past and approach 2007 with optimism. I am confident the promise of this budding football program will bloom into a tradition of excellence.” Offense The Bucs lost Drafts, who ended his career after starting the last four seasons, leaving little experience for the backups. Eli Byrd (R-So., 6-1, 200) played quarterback in just one game last season, coming in to try to mount a comeback against Liberty, completing eight of his 13 pass attempts, scoring two touchdowns; one on the ground and one through the air. The early favorite as the starter, Byrd will have to hold off a charge by Sidney Bryant (Jr., 5-10, 195). Bryant was named the Most-Improved QB during spring practice, having completed 6-of-10 passes in four games last year. The wide receiver position lost a couple of key players, but will return Vernon Huger (Sr., 6-5, 210) from injury, and Markus Murry (Jr., 5-10, 177), who has been the second-leading receiver on the team each of the last two seasons. Kwame Krakue (R-Fr., 5-10, 170) had a solid spring outing, while Tim Jones (So. 6-3, 205) is one of the taller receivers, and has shown flashes of brilliance on the field. Darian Benton (R-Fr., 5-10, 175), and transfer Dee Brown (Jr. 5-10, 180) will also battle for playing time, catching the football. A promising group of freshman signees might also be asked to make a contribution. After a solid freshman campaign, Clayton Coffman (R-So., 6-2, 241) will anchor the tight ends, battling Wes Brown (R-Fr., 6-5, 230), Josh Atkinson (R-Fr., 6-5, 245) and Tyrese Harris (Jr., 6-3, 250) who could see action on both sides of the ball. The Buccaneers always have a goal of a balanced offense, but with a dominant passing attack last year, did not gain the yards on the ground that they would have liked, averaging just 3.6 yards per carry. A solid offensive line that returns intact, as well as solid backs will look to change that trend this season. Kenny Harper (Sr., 5-9, 213) looks to be the leading rusher, but not far behind is Alexius Ferguson (R-Jr., 5-9, 190), who ran well as a backup last season. Both backs broke long runs during the spring game, and got solid yardage on every carry. Ryan Ard (Jr., 6-0, 235) and Jim O’Connor (Sr., 6-0, 223) give the Bucs plenty of muscle at the fullback position. The offensive line has gotten bigger each of the last two seasons, and for the first time in recent history, returns all five starters. Both earning all-conference honors last season, Rick Howell (Sr., 6-2, 310) and Alex Bragg (R-Jr., 6-5, 285) will serve as the veteran leadership. Matt Hoisington (R-Sr., 6-3, 300) will serve as the other senior on the line at right guard, with the trio of veterans manning the inside of the line. Redshirt junior Donald Fondren (6-3, 300) and Jordan Lancaster (So., 6-4, 295) will battle for the left tackle spot, while J.W. Myers (Jr., 6-5, 295) is the early favorite to start outside on the right. Zach Mitchell (So., 6-3, 300), Jarrett Johns (R-So., 6-5, 290) and Wes Houston (R-So. 6-4, 305) will all see significant playing time and battle for starting spots. The lone newcomer to the line this year is backup center Caleb Clark (R-Fr., 6-2, 267).

2007 Football Outlook “Our offense enters a period of transition,” continued Mills. “Gone are the marquee names that have been easily recognized by Buc fans. The 2007 offense will rely on a number of individuals stepping up to absorb the void. I am sure we have entrusted that responsibility to a group that will produce a successful transition.” Defense An ever-improving defense will make giant strides in 2007, returning 10 starters from last year, including all of the linebackers. The Bucs lose just one defensive back from a squad that broke the school record with 18 interceptions last season. One seemed to be the loneliest number for 2005 Defensive Player of the Year Jada Ross (Sr., 5-10, 234) as his 127 tackles in 2006 was one shy of his own school record, and he missed repeating as player of the year by one vote. Ross will return for his senior season and will be joined at the linebacking position by seniors Josh Mitchell (Sr., 6-1, 232) and Jonna Lee (Sr., 6-0, 250). The trio of seniors will have to hold off charges by David Jackson (R-Fr., 6-2, 230), Travis Jefferson (R-So, 5-11, 220), and Chris Patrick (R-Fr., 6-0, 230), who was named the Most Improved Linebacker after spring practice. Okeba Rollinson (Jr., 6-0, 170) and C.J. Hirschman (Sr., 5-11, 195) anchor the backs, both earning allconference honors last year, and expected to repeat in 2007. Sophomore Philip Ashley (So., 5-11, 175) returns from a record-setting two interceptions in the final game of 2006. Eight players in school history have intercepted two passes in the same game, and three of them (Ashley, Hirschman, and Jon Carmon (Sr. 5-9, 195)) will take the field this fall. Transfer Dennis Justiniani (Sr., 6-2, 240) burst on to the scene last year, leading the conference in tackles-for-loss en route to earning first-team all-conference honors. He will be joined up front by Dorein Perkins (So. 6-3, 218), who stole the show in the spring game with three pass breakups and two sacks, and Stonewall Randolph (Sr., 6-3, 235), who earned Most Improved honors in the spring. Brandon Horton (Sr., 6-0, 248), Marco Ramirez (Sr., 6-3, 250) and Carl Kramer (R-So., 6-4, 255) all return to the line as well, and will battle a solid class of newcomers for playing time. Junior college transfers Jacob Killeen (R-Jr., 6-4, 240), Quinton Johnson (Jr., 6-2, 260) and Justin Witzmann (Jr., 5-11, 280) are expected to see considerable playing time and provide the front with excellent depth. “If the long-held belief that defense wins championships is true, then I approach 2007 with great anticipation,” said Mills. “While the offense has received a large amount of the accolades in recent years, our defense has become noteworthy itself. This year’s unit has the potential to be our best yet.” Special Teams Nick Ellis, the all-time points leader at Charleston Southern, will serve as a utility kicker for CSU, having seen action on field goals, punts, and kickoffs since his freshman season. Ellis was 33-35 in PATs, with a 6-9 mark on field goals, including two longer than 30 yards. Incoming freshmen John Paglia (Fr., 6-2, 175) and Collins Harper are promising additions to the kicker and punter rosters. The Big South’s leading punt returner, Hirschman will again drop back to field punts, having stepped in nicely last season, returning one punt 85-yards for a touchdown. Murry will again return kickoffs, but looks to get more opportunities in 2007 with the loss of Burch. “We take great pride in our performance on special teams,” Mills said. “They have played a vital role in the squad’s success the past two years. With increased depth and focus, the expectations are even higher in 2007.”

Bucs at the next level Maurice Price (2004-06) WR - Kansas City Chiefs (NFL) Collin Drafts (2003-06) QB - Tri-Cities Fever (AF2) Bryant Burch (2005-06) WR - Calgary Stampeders (CFL) Mike Brown (1999-2000) WR/DB - Philadelphia Soul (AFL) Just as the 2007 NFL Draft was coming to a close, Maurice Price’s phone started ringing. “I had about 15 different teams that called me, wanting to offer a free agent deal, I sat down and decided that Kansas City had the best offer,” said Price, one of the newest Kansas City Chiefs. The rookies and veterans all came together for the camp, with Price having the opportunity to learn from such wide outs as 12-year veteran Eddie Kennison and former Clemson stand out Rod Gardner. Drafts joined the Tri-Cities Fever after finishing his college career. The coaching staff of the Fever are excited to have Drafts. Offensive Coordinator Coach Cleveland Pratt commented, “Collin has a huge upside. He is a quick learner who has great pocket presence. With a whole year under his belt as a backup he will be able to go on to any arena team and start and win.” Former Buccaneer wide receiver Bryant Burch signed a multi-year contract with the Calgary Stampeders, a member of the Canadian Football League. In Calgary, Burch will see much of the same action as he saw at CSU, playing wide receiver and also returning kicks and punts. The Calgary Stampeders are coming off a 10-8 regular season record and a berth in the playoffs. Mike Brown finished his third year in the AFL, taking his Philadelphia Soul team to the playoffs in 2007. He began his post-CSU career in the AF2 with the Charleston Swamp Foxes before moving to Philadelphia, where he is noted as one of the premier two-way players in the league.

The Buccaneers had three representatives at the 2006 East Coast Bowl. Quarterback Collin Drafts, defensive lineman Phil Jordan and wide receiver Drew Rucks shined, even though their South squad lost 24-26 on a touchdown as time expired. The South held a potent North offense scoreless through the first half. On the first play of the fourth quarter, Phil Jordan got into the backfield, recording his first tackle of the day with a sack. The defensive lineman from Burlingame, Calif. would finish the day with two tackles. On the offensive side, quarterback Collin Drafts (Beaufort, S.C.) completed seven-of-nine passes for 63 yards, driving his south squad to the sixyardline before they kicked a field goal. Wide-out Drew Rucks (Jackson, N.J.) was on the receiving end of two passes, picking up 38 yards in the game. The East Coast Bowl featured 70 of the best Division I-AA, II, III and NAIA players from 33 states.

Ellis Earns Postseason Honors for Work On and Off the Field Senior kicker Nick Ellis was named to the Division I-AA Athletics Director All-Star team for his work in the classroom as well as on the field. He is the second Buccaneer to earn the honor, after defensive lineman Adam DeGraffenreid earned it following the 2005 season. The all-star team was narrowed down from 94 nominees, and was announced at the 2006 Football Championship Subdivision football championship. “These young men represent the outstanding student-athletes found in Football Championship Subdivision football,” said Don Kaverman, chair of the Football Championship Subdivision Academic All-Star Team Selection Committee and athletics director at Southeast Missouri State University. “They are the cream of the crop. We are proud of these student-athletes’ accomplishments both in the classroom and on the field.” Football players from all Football Championship Subdivision institutions are eligible for these prestigious awards. Each of the 94 nominees were required to have a minimum grade point average of 3.20 (on a 4.00 scale) in undergraduate study and have been a starter or key player with legitimate athletics credentials. He must have reached his second year of athletics and academic standing at the nominated institution and have completed a minimum of one full academic year at the nominated institution. He must also have participated in 50 percent of the games played at his designated position. Ellis’s awards did not end there, though, as he was named to the Big South all-academic team, and was named an Atlanta Boy Scout’s “Peach of an Athlete” and was honored at a banquet in March.

Buccaneers In the Community Charleston Southern University is passing along its culture of servanthood to its students, and once again, the football team has jumped on board, participating in many different volunteer projects around the community. During the 2006-07 school year, the Buccaneers sponsored many events as a team, and sent individual players to a number of different community service projects. Habitat for Humanity is one of the best-known community service organizations, and for the second year, the Bucs pitched in to help build a house for a less privileged member of the Charleston community. As they have done the past few years, the Buccaneer football team sponsored a Red Cross Blood Drive on campus. To take it a step further, the team petitioned the community and successfully filled every available spot. Coach Mills and his staff also felt that it was important for the team to be active in the local schools, sending the team as mentors to many of the different elementary schools, as well as working with a P.T.A. project at Flowertown Elementary School. This year, Charleston Southern University hosted the 2007 Special Olympic Spring Championships, with a number of football players helping out by coaching and cheering on the athletes. “We’re not only a football team, we’re also a big part of this University and of this community,” Mills said. “It’s important that our athletes make positive contributions on and off the field of competition.” Each year, Charleston Southern University hosts the Bell and Schlau Track Meet, hosting preteen and teenage athletes for a track meet. Many CSU athletes help out at the event by holding booths and clinics for the kids. To raise money for the Eddie Gadson Memorial Scholarship, and the Eddie and Friends organization, created by Eddie Gadson’s father in his memory, the Buccaneers also hosted a concession stand at the 2007 Tae Kwon Do Championships inside the CSU Field House.

“It was his number,” said kicker Nick Ellis, a high school teammate of Gadson’s, in reference to the game ending on the 21-yard line. “It was like he was saying, ‘Hey guys! Here I am.’”

The Buccaneers have dedicated each of the last two seasons to the memory of Edward A. (Eddie) Gadson. They will continue to dedicate the upcoming season to his memory as Gadson would be a senior for the 2007 season. Following this year, the football team will graduate Eddie along with his teammates.

On April 9, 2006, immediately following the Edward A. Gadson Memorial Spring Football Game, fans flocked to the field house to celebrate the first conference championship in school history. The postseason awards and championship rings were given out to commemorate what many have called one of the most important events in school history. Quarterback Collin Drafts and linebacker Jada Ross were given their trophies for being named the Big South Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year, respectively, while Coach Jay Mills took home hardware for being named the Big South Coach of the Year. Each member of the all-conference team was also recognized before each member of the team came forward to receive his championship ring.

The “Buc Dome� was packed with fans waiting to congratulate the football team on their first-ever Conference championship.

About the Big South Conference For more than 20 years, the Big South Conference has been a progressive, NCAA Division I athletic Conference reflecting the energy and growth of the Southeastern United States. Founded in 1983, the Big South has matured into a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence both on the field of play and in the classroom. Based in Charlotte, N.C., the Big South Conference’s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic league is evident by competitive success on the national stage, innovative marketing and media partnerships, increased television packages, the enhancement of the quality of the student-athlete experience, and strategic planning that has carried the Big South through the first decade of the 21st Century. Entering its 24th year of existence in 2007-08, the Big South Conference continues to emerge by providing quality athletic competition while intentionally fostering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. The League consists of eight member institutions: Charleston Southern University, Coastal Carolina University, High Point University, Liberty University, UNC Asheville, Radford University, Virginia Military Institute and Winthrop University. Two new members will join the Big South footprint in 2008-09 with the addition of Gardner-Webb University and Presbyterian College, which began its transition to Division I athletics in 2006. The Big South reached new heights in 2006-07, as the League experienced monumental milestones in nearly every sport. In football, Coastal Carolina became the first Big South member to receive a berth in the NCAA Division I Championship, being selected as an at-large participant to highlight the Conference’s fifth year of sponsoring football. In men’s basketball, Winthrop became the first Big South member to be ranked in the national top 25 and first to win a first round NCAA Tournament with its 74-64 win over Notre Dame. In women’s basketball, the Big South had two teams participate in the postseason for the first time in League history. In men’s golf, Coastal Carolina became the first Big South squad to advance to the final round of the NCAA Championship and finished fifth – the Conference’s highest-ever team finish in an NCAA event. In softball, Winthrop became the first Big South member to reach the Championship game of an NCAA Regional. In baseball, Coastal Carolina was ranked as high as No. 10 in the national polls, received a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Regional and became the first Big South member to host an NCAA Regional. In volleyball, Winthrop became the first Big South member to win a game in the NCAA Tournament. The Big South also had its first-ever women’s cross country All-American in 2006-07, as well as its first women’s golf All-American in 10 years. Additionally, Radford tennis player Martin Sayer was selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship for the second-straight year, Liberty’s Josh McDougal received All-America honors in the three running sports (cross country, indoor track and outdoor track) for the second consecutive season, and Coastal Carolina golfer Dustin Johnson was at one time the No. 1-ranked college golfer en route to earning first-team All-America honors for the second year in-a-row. The Conference again went 2-1 in the ESPN BracketBusters men’s basketball event, had

more than 30 All-Americans, and had softball and men’s soccer televised for the first time in League history. The Conference’s on-field accomplishments were duplicated in the classroom. A total of 36 Big South studentathletes were named Academic All-District by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA), NINE of which earned Academic All-America accolades. In football, Coastal Carolina’s Anthony Franklin received an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship, and eight Big South member sports teams were honored by the NCAA for their latest Academic Progress Rate. In addition, more than 40 percent of Conference student-athletes achieved at least a 3.0 grade point average each year. The Big South Conference was formed on August 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College) Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry initially began recruiting members into the Big South. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to solicit new members. The League’s seven charter members were Armstrong State, Augusta, Campbell, Charleston Southern, Coastal Carolina, Radford and Winthrop. In 1989, George F. “Buddy” Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton as Commissioner. Under Sasser’s leadership, the Conference implemented its public relations and compliance programs, and introduced its first-ever men’s basketball television package, featuring the Big South competing among some of the finest teams in the nation. Sasser was so integral to the growth and foundation of the League that in 2000, the Commissioner’s Cup -- the annual award given to the institution with the most successful athletic year -- was renamed the George F. Sasser Cup. In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the League’s third Commissioner, and in his 11 years at the helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the Conference to new levels. He developed the Big South Marketing Group, which has resulted in increased revenues and exposure for the Conference and its members. He also brought television coverage to Big South women’s basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in Conference history and created the Big South Television Network in 2001 as a television syndicate for the League. Under Kallander’s leadership, the Big South developed and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the League’s vision as a distinctive athletic Conference committed to the quality of institutional life through athletic competition. In addition, Kallander has solidified membership with the addition of High Point in 1999, Virginia Military Institute in 2003 and future members Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian in 2008. Kallander’s long range vision has also


About the Big South Conference included technological advancements, as the Conference introduced its first live event video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to all sports. Kallander has also successfully integrated the Conference’s profile with the member institutions’ general student body, notably through the development of the Big South Academic Consortium, which sponsors the annual Academic College Bowl among League members and the Big South Undergraduate Research Symposium. In 2005-06, the Big South began its Sportsmanship Awards program and Graduate Fellowships program, honoring one graduating male and female student-athlete attending graduate school the following fall. In the Fall of 2002, the Big South welcomed the addition of football as a Conference sport, bringing the number of Division I championship programs the Big South sponsors to 18, joining men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s soccer, volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s indoor/outdoor track, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s golf, softball and baseball. The Big South receive automatic bids to NCAA Championships in men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s soccer, volleyball, men’s and women’s golf, baseball, softball, and men’s and women’s tennis.

In celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2003-04, the Big South inducted its inaugural Hall of Fame class, which included 11 former student-athletes and administrators who were an integral part in the Big South’s early development and vitality. The Hall of Fame now stands at 30 members. The League also recognizes and honors academic excellence with the Presidential Honor Roll and the George A. Christenberry Award, which recognizes student-athletes graduating with a 4.0 grade point average. Additionally, the Conference’s Sports Information Directors annually select a Scholar-Athlete in each Conference sport, plus a male and female Scholar-Athlete of the Year The Big South continues to secure aggressive and unique television packages, making the Conference one of the leaders among all Division I Leagues in television exposure for its student-athletes. Entering the 2006-07 season, the Conference will have an expanded lineup on regional network SportSouth, in addition to a partnership with the fledgling national network, The America Channel, allowing the Big South to televise its largest array of events and sports in its history. The Conference also boasts relationships with FSN South, Comcast SportsNet (CSN), Comcast Sports Southeast (CSS), College Sports Television (CSTV), Fox College Sports (FCS) and the ESPN family of networks, which will televise the 2008 Advance Auto Parts Men’s Basketball Championship game live on ESPN.
