Head Coach Jay Mills The 2008 season will be Jay Mills’ sixth season at the helm of the Buccaneers’ ship, taking CSU from a 1-11 mark in 2003 to a Big South Conference championship in 2005, and a school-record nine wins in 2006. Mills helped lead the Buccaneers to the nation’s second-longest winning streak at 14 games stretching over the 2005 and 2006 seasons, garnering their first national ranking in school history. Honored with the All-American Football Foundation’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2002, Mills was named the 2005 Big South Conference Coach of the Year, and the 2005 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 I-AA 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 (24), Josh (20), Jared (19), Chris (17), Derek (16) and David (11), and on July 12, 2008, the Mills added son-in-law Ryan Tié to the family.

Charleston Southern Buccaneers

2008 Football Outlook The upward trends continued for Charleston Southern as they won at least five games for the fourth-straight season in 2007, making the 2007 senior class the first in school history to leave with a winning record (26-17). “Our theme for my first season here was ‘The Tradition Begins,’ and our 2007 senior class certainly helped start a solid tradition here,” said Head Coach Jay Mills. For 2008, the Bucs will return the majority of the offense, losing just three starters from last year. It will be the defensive side that will have some rebuilding in front of them, having lost All-American linebacker Jada Ross, among other key components of a defense that posted the fifth shutout in school history, last season. For the second year in a row, the Bucs will face an FBS opponent, having played Hawaii last season. The 2008 schedule features the University of Miami (Fla.) on opening day of the season, followed two weeks later by the Redhawks of Miami (Ohio). OFFENSE For the second time in as many years, there will be a new face running the offense having lost Eli Byrd and Sidney Bryant, who split time in 2007. Transfer A.J. Toscano (Jr., 6-2, 208) and redshirt freshman Gabe Gilmour (R-Fr., 6-2, 180) battled throughout spring drills for the starting spot going into fall camp, with neither able to gain a decided advantage. Clemson transfer Tribble Reese (Sr., 6-2, 215) joins the campaign for signal-calling duties.

Senior Wide Receiver Dee Brown

Three of the top-four receivers will come back, led by All-Big South selection Dee Brown (Sr., 5-11, 180), who brought in 898 yards and nine touchdowns on 69 receptions. He had three touchdowns over 50 yards, including a 57-yarder against Hawaii. Having already been a dependable target for three years, Markus Murry (Sr., 5-10, 185) will return for his final season in the blue and gold having surpassed 1,300 yards for his career to move into fifth all-time. Starter Tim Jones (Jr., 6-4, 205) also returns having provided a tall target. At running back, the Bucs got a spark from a number of different legs after senior Kenny Harper broke his leg early in the season. DeMarcus Moon (So., 5-10, 190) proved to be solid in the backfield, leading all rushers with 404 yards on 67 carries. B.J. Hackworth (R-Fr., 6-0, 227) showed enough promise in spring practice to earn the most improved running back award and should make an impact in the running game this fall. Expect freshmen Antwan Ivey (Fr. 5-7, 180), Mike Springer (Fr., 6-0, 185) and Okoye Manley (Fr., 6-2, 225) to get a good look during fall camp.

Senior Defensive Lineman Jake Killeen

2008 Football Outlook

2008 FB Media Guide

Despite losing all-conference selection and four-year starter Rick Howell, the offensive line is confident, returning six up front with starting experience. Donald Fondren (R-Sr., 6-3, 305) and Jarrett Johns (R-Jr., 6-5, 302) will anchor the ends of the line, while Alex Bragg (RSr., 6-5, 280) and Jordan Lancaster (Jr., 6-4, 295) will hold down the interior, with the return of Zach Mitchell (Jr., 6-3, 300) and J.W. Myers (Sr., 6-4, 299) who were out last year with injuries. Redshirt freshmen B.J. Baker (6-5, 295) and Levi McFatter (6-4, 285) showed promise this spring and will vie for playing time as well.

Senior Linebacker Josh Mitchell

DEFENSE The defensive line returns all-conference selection Jake Killeen (Sr., 6-4, 240) as well as Justin Witzmann (Sr., 5-11, 280), who showed dominance in the middle of the line in his first season at CSU. Ryan Ard (Sr., 6-0, 230), an all-conference selection at tight end, moves to the other side of the ball and will start at one defensive end spot. Dorein Perkins (Jr., 6-3, 235), has continued to improve and will vie for a starting spot, as will Chris Parris (R-Jr., 6-3, 235). Junior college transfers and the incoming freshman class will look to bolster

the front line. All-American Jada Ross will no longer be anchoring the middle of the defense for Charleston Southern, but the second-leading stopper on the team, Josh Warrior (R-Sr., 5-11, 201), will return for his final season. The linebacking corps will also have the services of Josh Mitchell (R-Sr., 6-2, 232), who will return after sitting out the 2007 season with an injury, while Air Force transfer Andrew McKain (Jr., 6-1, 225) will start at the other slot alongside Mitchell. Chris Patrick (R-So., 6-2, 225), David Jackson (R-So., 6-2, 230) and Fred Godfrey (R-So., 5-11, 210) add depth and will contribute on special teams as well. The defensive backs will notice holes as well, having lost three of the best pick-off men in CSU history in C.J. Hirschman, Jon Carmon, and David Misher. Philip Ashley (Jr., 5-11, 175) returns for 2008 as he continues to close in on the career interceptions record. Known for his hard hits, Okeba Rollinson (R-Sr., 5-11, 201) comes back for his final season, while Matt Bach (Jr., 5-10, 192) came on strong last year to record 25 tackles including 13 solo stops, and will be depended on more heavily this season. Veteran Mike McCann (R-Sr., 6-0, 200) adds experience and leadership while talented cornerbacks Jacques Bazile (R-Fr., 5-10, 165), Reggie Ellington (R-Jr., 5-9, 181) and C.J. Dancy (R-Fr., 6-0, 185) sharpen one another through competition. SPECIAL TEAMS Replacing the all-time points leader in school history is never easy, but John Paglia (So., 6-2, 175) will try to do just that in his second year. Last season, Paglia hit 22 kickoffs, averaging a team-best 58.3 yards per kick.

Sophomore Kick Returner Gerald Stevenson

Another bright spot going into the 2008 season is backup wide receiver, and kick returner Gerald Stevenson (So., 5-1, 165), who led the team last year with 24 returns, averaging 23 yards per return. 15 Promoting Academic Excellence in a Christian Environment

Bucs at the next level

Maurice Price (2004-06) WR - Kansas City Chiefs (NFL) Mike Brown (1999-2000) WR/DB - Philadelphia Soul (AFL) Collin Drafts (2003-06) QB - Green Bay Blizzard (AF2) Anthony Moore (2003-06) FB/LB - Lubbock Renegades (AF2) Vernon Huger (2004-07) WR - Georgia Force (AFL) Matt Hoisington (2003-07) OL/FB - CenTex Barracudas (IFL)

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 standout Rod Gardner. Mike Brown finished his fourth 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.

Former CSU cornerback Dounia Whitehouse also spent time in the CFL playing with the Grey Cup Champion Edmonton Eskimos.

The Citadel 7 14 7 7 35 CHARLESTON, S.C. -The Buccaneers hung tough but fell 35-14 to crosstown rival Citadel, in front of 12,885 fans, Saturday afternoon at a rain-soaked Johnson Hagood Stadium. It was a defensive battle early, as the Bucs amassed just 71 yards of total offense in the first half with 59 of them coming on one play for the lone CSU score of the first half. In his first start at quarterback, sophomore Eli Byrd passed for 137 yards, completing 11 of his 27 attempts. Byrd also led the Bucs rushing, going for 28 yards on 14 carries. Sophomore Tim Jones just missed the century mark, catching four passes for 98 yards, while junior Markus Murray had three grabs for 31 yards. Defensively, senior Jada Ross picked up where he left off a year ago, tallying 16 tackles, including two tackles for loss. Junior Josh Warrior also had double-digits in tackles with 10, and had one of two CSU sacks on the day. Senior Marco Ramirez saw his first action in a CSU jersey and recorded the other sack. A strong running game propelled The Citadel to seven points on their first drive of the game, as they marched 69 yards to take an early lead. The Bulldogs finished with 173 yards on the ground, while senior quarterback Duran Lawson connected on 21 of his 32 passing attempts for 246 yards.

SPARTANBURG, S.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Charleston Southern turned the ball over five times, and allowed a kickoff return for a touchdown as they fell 52-24 to 14th-ranked Wofford, Saturday night at Gibbs Stadium. It was the second-straight game on the road at a Southern Conference opponent for the Bucs as they start the season 0-2, with Wofford moving to 2-0 to start the season. In his second start of his career, Eli Byrd completed 28 of 46 passes for 264 yards and two touchdowns, but more importantly, threw three interceptions. Dee Brown was the leading receiver for CSU with 13 receptions, just missing the century mark with 95 yards. Wofford amassed 317 yards on the ground in the victory, but spread it out between 12 different rushers. Defensively it was Jada Ross leading the charge for the second-straight game with 11 tackles. Ross was the lone defenseman to reach double figures, as Josh Warrior and Matt Bach each tallied eight takedowns for CSU. Gary Blount had six stops to lead the Terriors. After falling behind quickly, a 37-yard pass from Byrd to Vernon Huger ignited the CSU offense as they put together an 11-play, 75-yard drive to tie the score at 7-7. CSU cut into the lead with 7:40 left in the half as a special teams miscue led to CSU points. A Nick Ellis punt bounced off the leg of a Wofford cover man and CSU recovered on the 10 yardline. It only took CSU one play on a roll-out pass to Tim Jones as CSU found the endzone to make it 28-14. With one chance remaining in the half, the Bucs capitalized a third-andone inside the five, setting up a touchdown pass to Vernon Huger to cut the lead to 35-21. Despite the score, the Bucs held a 228-214 advantage in total offense, including a 189-57 edge through the air at the break.

CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Buccaneers won their 11th-straight home game, Saturday, with a 44-20 beating of Johnson C. Smith at Buccaneer Field in front of an opening-day crowd of 2,384. The Bucs haven’t lost at home since Oct. 1, 2005, when they fell 27-22 to Howard. After rushing for less than 50 yards in the first two games, the Buccaneers pounded out 200 yards on the ground, with Eli Byrd tallying 184 through the air. It was the first time CSU has gained 200 rushing since Nov. 5, 2005, when they had 200 against Gardner-Webb. With the first 100-yard rushing game of the season, and of his career, Michael Jefferson led the way for CSU, gaining 104 yards and three touchdowns on 15 attempts. DeMarcus Moon had seven carries for 74 yards and scored his first-career touchdown. Byrd completed 18-29 through the air, for 184 yards and one touchdown on a 24-yard pass to tight end Ryan Ard. With eight tackles, Matt Bach led the way for CSU, while Okeba Rollinson and Jada Ross each had seven. It was the first time that Ross hasn’t led the team in tackles since the Nov. 11 matchup against Liberty last season. Ross is now seven tackles shy of tying the Big South record for career stops. The Bucs had three sacks and seven tackles for loss, as well as forcing four turnovers. Carl Richardson took the majority of the snaps under center for JCSU, completing 10 of his 21 passing attempts for 103 yards. Backup Ryan Carter threw two interceptions, one to Josh Warrior, and one to Jon Carmon. Fred Williams led JCSU, and all tacklers, with 14 stops. With what looked to be the final possession of the first half for CSU, the Bucs’ Nick Ellis nailed a 32-yard field goal to put CSU up by 10, 17-7 with just 22 ticks on the clock. A nice drive by JCSU set up a field goal attempt of their own with no time on the clock. Freshman Gerald Stevenson broke through the line on the attempt, though, blocking it right into the hands of Philip Ashley, who returned it 68-yards for a touchdown, giving CSU the 24-7 halftime advantage. The 68-yard touchdown was the second time in as many years that CSU has returned a blocked kick for points, as Alexius Ferguson recovered a blocked punt last year against V.M.I., going 15-yards for a touchdown.

HONOLULU, HI - After leading by only 11 points at halftime and playing without injured Heisman Trophy candidate Colt Brennan, the 19th-ranked Hawaii Warriors flexed their muscle in the second half and outscored Charleston Southern 45-0 over the final two quarters en route to a 66-10 victory at Aloha Stadium Saturday night. In a game that ended close to 4 a.m. on the east coast, the Buccaneers (1-3) played a solid opening half in the program’s first-ever match-up against a ranked FBS (formerly Division I-A) opponent, and found themselves trailing 21-10 at the intermission. But the Warriors (4-0, 1-0 WAC) scored two touchdowns in the first 1:12 of the third quarter, as Ryan Mouton returned the opening kickoff 90 yards for a score and three plays later Adam Leonard returned an interception 36 yards for a touchdown, quickly putting Hawaii in front 35-10. CSU forced three Hawaii turnovers and three punts in the opening half, but none afterwards. On offense, the Buccaneers gained only five first downs and 117 total yards in the second half, while CSU committed eight of its nine penalties following halftime. Senior linebacker Jada Ross recorded 10 tackles and a forced fumble to lead the CSU defense, and in the process passed Coastal Carolina’s Jamar Leath to become the Big South’s all-time career tackles leader. Byrd finished 13-for-31 through the air for 184 yards, while back up Sidney Bryant took over in the fourth quarter and completed 6-of-10 attempts for 55 yards. CSU’s Josh Warrior intercepted Graunke’s first pass of the game in the opening stanza, and David Misher picked off another offering late in the half to set up Nick Ellis’ 48-yard field goal that cut Hawaii’s lead to 21-10 going into the locker room.

North Greenville 13 7 7 6 33 TIGERVILLE, S.C. – The Charleston Southern (2-3) offense returned to form as they tallied 546 yards of total offense in a 46-33 victory over North Greenville (1-4), Saturday night at Younts Stadium. Sophomore quarterback Eli Byrd was hot from the beginning, completing 10of-11 pass attempts, including his first six. He finished the first half 21-30 with two touchdowns, one interception, and 258 yards. The Bucs added 78 yards on the ground as they out gained the Crusaders 336-261 in the first half. Byrd continued his trend as he rewrote the record books in the victory completing a record-setting 34 passes on 54 attempts for 398 yards. His 54 attempts falls one short of the school record, while his 398 yards through the air is also the second-best in CSU history. The Bucs added 139 yards on the ground as they turned in the most complete offensive performance of the season, much to the pleasure of Head Coach Jay Mills. The Bucs wasted no time putting points on the board, as a pair of passes to Vernon Huger and Markus Murry set up a 20-yard Nick Ellis Field goal. It took just six plays, 68 yards, and 3:06 for CSU to go up 3-0. A quick three-and-out forced by CSU’s defense gave the Bucs the ball back with plenty of time left in the half. The Bucs drove down the field, but faced decision time on fourth-and-three on the NGU 24 yardline and 1:01 on the clock. Coach Mills elected to go for it, and Byrd completed the seven-yard pass to Ryan Ard to pick up the first down. After an apparent touchdown reception by Huger was called out of bounds, Byrd threw one up for grabs in the endzone, and Derrick Miller came down with it for the Crusaders. The Buccaneer offense wasn’t finished, though as they drove 52 yards down the field in seven plays and :50 making it a two-point NGU advantage with 8:07 to go. A fake punt with 6:00 on the clock was read perfectly by the Buccaneers. As Warrior drug down the punter, Jones heaved the ball up in the air, and into the endzone where the Bucs recovered for the touchdown, putting them up by four. The Bucs elected to go for two and a fade pass to Huger made it 39-33 in favor of the Bucs, their first lead since the opening drive of the game.

CHARLESTON, S.C. – Charleston Southern posted their first shut out of the season as they gave up just 66 yards of total offense to Savannah State in a 28-0 beating in front of the Homecoming crowd of 2,829 at CSU Stadium. The 66 yards given up by the defense is the second-fewest in school history and the fewest since the Bucs gave up 64 yards to Edward Waters last season, the last time that CSU shut out their opponent. The Buccaneer defense picked off three passes allowing just 26 yards through the air. Savannah State was held to just 1.1 yard per play, while the Buccaneers averaged 6.2 yards per attempt. Jada Ross led the charge defensively for CSU with 13 stops, and was only out done by Savannah State’s Antwan Allen, who plays with just one eye after a childhood accident took the sight from his other. Josh Warrior and Dennis Justiniani each had eight tackles, and were in the backfield all afternoon. Warrior had three tackles-for-loss for 22 yards, and one interception, while Justiniani had 1.5 tackles-for-loss including a sack for a three-yard loss. Each finished the game with eight tackles. Starting quarterback Eli Byrd played just two series before being taken out of the game in favor of backup Sidney Bryant. Bryant took advantage of the opportunity, as he completed 13 of 25 pass attempts for one touchdown and one interception. Bryant passed for 171 yards, with five passes and 76 yards going to Dee Brown. The Bucs pounded the ball on the ground all day, tallying 272 yards on the ground. Adding 182 yards through the air, the Bucs accounted for 454 total yards, their second-highest total of the season after totalling 537 yards last week against North Greenville. The 272 yards is the most since CSU ran for 397 yards in 2005 against West Virginia Wesleyan. Freshman DeMarcus Moon recorded his first 100-yard game as he went for 103 yards on 16 carries. Nick Ellis was a perfect six-for-six on the day with four field goals. Ellis is the first kicker in school history to hit four field goals in a game.

CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Charleston Southern Buccaneers (3-4, 0-1 Big South) struggled to stop a strong Liberty Flame (4-3, 1-0 Big South) rushing game as they surrendered 30 second-half points in a 50-10 loss, Saturday afternoon at CSU Stadium. Liberty ran the ball 45 times and averaged 6.3 yards as they amassed 283 yards against the CSU defense. Rashad Jennings had 20 carries for the Flames with 131 yards and two touchdowns. The Bucs did most of their offensive damage through the air as Eli Byrd completed 12-20 passes for 168 yards and one touchdown. Byrd also had two interceptions, while backup Sidney Bryant also threw two interceptions. Bryant finished the game having completed 8-14 passes and 84 yards. Jada Ross led with a game-high 17 tackles, while Josh Warrior added 10 for the Bucs. Coming into the game in the second-half, Jonna Lee tallied seven stops. Neither team was able to get into the backfield much, as Justin Witzman and Marco Ramirez combined for the only tackle for loss for CSU. Trey Jacobs had one tackle-for-loss for Liberty, while Tim Torrence and Pierre Tinsley combined for the other stop behind the line of scrimmage. The lone CSU touchdown came on the second play of the game as Byrd found Dee Brown cutting across the middle of the field. Brown made a move and dashed 62-yards to strike first blood and put the Bucs up 7-0 just 1:09 into the game. On the first play in the second, Nick Ellis connected on a 37-yard, gametying touchdown, but it would prove to be the final points of the day for Charleston Southern. The Flames rushed for five touchdowns on the ground, as they handed Charleston Southern their worst home loss since a 42-0 defeat at the hands of Presbyterian, Sept. 10, 2005. The loss also ended the Bucs’ home-winning streak at 12 games, which tied the Big South record, and was the third-longest in the nation, behind Appalachian State (30) and San Diego (22).

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C. – It was homecoming at Gardner-Webb, Saturday, as they hosted Charleston Southern in the second Big South game of the year for each team. Two years ago, the Bucs spoiled the homecoming celebration with a 38-7 trouncing of the home team. This year, the Bulldogs got their revenge with a heartbreaking 29-25 defeat of Charleston Southern, breaking the two-game winning streak that CSU held. Eli Byrd, still battling a sore shoulder, split time with Sidney Bryant behind center. Bryant got the majority of the snaps, completing 19-29 passes for 146 yards and two touchdowns. Byrd had 66 yards on an eight-of-12 passing night. Dee Brown had six catches for 40 yards, while Alexius Ferguson caught five passes for 47 yards out of the back field. The Runnin’ Bulldogs lived up to their name, rushing for 186 yards on a season-high 45 carries. Patrick Hall accounted for 100 yards on just 13 carries. Dobson Collins led all receivers with 10 receptions and 114 yards, as quarterback Stan Doolittle passed for 200 yards against the CSU defense. CJ Hirschman led the CSU defense with 10 stops, while David Misher, Jonna Lee and Josh Warrior each had eight tackles. Cedric McGowan and Mario Brown each had 10 tackles for GWU. The defense came up huge on the first series, and after the snap was fumbled on a 40-yard field goal attempt, the kicker Evan Kay; tried to run the ball for the first down. A solid hit forced a fumble, and Jada Ross picked it up with no one in front of him as he scampered 77 yards to pay-dirt to put CSU up 7-0 just four minutes into the game. The return was the third-longest fumble return in Big South, and in Charleston Southern history.

LEXINGTON, Va. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Charleston Southern scored 30 second-half points, combined with a defensive shut out in the fourth quarter to come from behind to beat VMI 37-28, Saturday afternoon at Foster Stadium. CSU improves to 4-5 on the season and after earning their first Big South victory, moves to 1-2 in Big South play. The Keydets lost their third-straight Big South game, falling to 2-7 on the season. The two teams combined for over 1,000 total offensive yards, setting numerous Big South records in the process. Despite the losing effort, Tim Maypray shattered the Big South record for all-purpose yards, tallying 346 yards, including the third 200-yard receiving performance (209 yards on five catches) in the Conference. For Charleston Southern, it was Sidney Bryant who again took the bulk of the snaps, completing 12 of his 20 pass attempts for 253 yards, a career-high and his first 200-yard performance of his career. It was Dee Brown that continued to dominate the Conference, gathering nine receptions for 177 yards and two scores. Defensively for the Bucs, it was the linebacking duo of Jada Ross and Jonna Lee that each reached double figures with game highs of 15 and 12 tackles, respectively. Despite a combined 472 yards of total offense between the two teams at halftime, there were only a combined 21 points on the scoreboard. A big return by Gerald Stevenson set up a 64-yard touchdown pass to Dee Brown to pull CSU back to within a touchdown. Trying to keep the momentum, Nick Ellis tried an onside kick, recovering his own kick at the 39 yardline after it was touched by a Keydet player. Two plays later, CSU was in pay-dirt again, this time going 61 yards to Murry, who cut back into the middle of the field for the game-tying score. CSU took their first lead of the game on a 53-yard fumble return by Okeba Rollinson. It was the second fumble return for a touchdown in as many weeks after Jada Ross went 77 yards against Gardner-Webb.

CHARLESTON, S.C. - The Bucs took the lead for the first time with seven seconds on the clock as they took down Presbyterian 28-24, Saturday at CSU stadium. It was an 18-yard pass from Sidney Bryant to Dee Brown that put CSU ahead, evening their record at 5-5 with the victory over future Big South member Presbyterian (6-5). Charleston Southern will go for their third-straight winning season as they face Coastal Carolina on a game that will be televised on SportSouth. Kickoff will be at noon. The Bucs, led by Bryant, amassed almost 450 total yards of offense (449) as they took down the Blue Hose for the second-straight year. Bryant finished the game one completion short of the single-game record, passing the ball 48 times, completing 30 of them for 382 yards, and did not throw an interception. Of the 30 completions, Vernon Huger (86 yards), Markus Murry (80 yards) and Tim Jones (53 yards) each caught six. Brown had 5 receptions for a game-high 125 yards, including what proved to be the game-winner with 7.3 seconds on the clock. Josh Warrior (12 tackles) and Jada Ross (11 tackles) paced a CSU defense that held a potent PC offense to just three second-half points. The defense also picked of PC quarterback Greyson Mullins twice with Philip Ashley grabbing one, and deflecting the other into the chest of C.J. Hirschman, who held on in the endzone. After winning the coin flip, Presbyterian chose to take the ball and put their highly rated offense (second in the Nation) on display early on. The move paid off as it took just 3:19 for them to put the ball in the endzone to take a 7-0 lead. The two teams traded touchdowns and it looked like the shootout that was expected was coming to fruition. The Bucs struck on a five-yard pass to Murry after a seven-play, 32-yard drive after Gerald Stevenson set them up nicely on the PC 32 yardline with a 48-yard kickoff return. Bryant and Brown hooked up again, this time going 53 yards for the touchdown tying the game 21-21 at the beginning of the fourth quarter. The two teams had opportunities to take the lead with neither team able to until a career-long 40 yard field goal by Cam Miller put PC up 24-21 with only 1:20 on the clock. A short kickoff left CSU in good field position at their 42 yardline as they looked to move the ball down the field to put themselves in position to tie or take the lead late. Bryant found Jones on a pair of passes that set CSU up near field goal range. A holding penalty on the Blue Hose moved the ball to the 18 yardline, and with less than :20 on the clock, Bryant found Brown in the corner of the endzone for the victory.

CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Buccaneers fell to rival Coastal Carolina, 41-2, Saturday afternoon at CSU Stadium, in the season finale for both teams. Both teams finish their seasons with 5-6 overall records. Charleston Southern finished 1-3 in the Big South, while Coastal finished with a 3-1 mark. The Buccaneers struggled offensively, turning the ball over five times in the loss. For the first time in Head Coach Jay Mills’ tenure, the CSU offense managed just 65 yards through the air. They did rush for 131 yards on the ground, thanks in large part to 58-yard and 56-yard performances from Alexius Ferguson and DeMarcus Moon, respectively. Sidney Bryant started his third-straight game, but split time with Eli Byrd after the offense struggled to get down the field. Bryant finished the day 5-14 with two interceptions and just 17 yards. Byrd’s day consisted of a 6-17 performance for 48 yards and two interceptions. Dee Brown was the recipient of six passes for 16 yards, while Tim Jones had two catches for 18 yards. Defensively, Jada Ross continued to have success against Coastal Carolina, leading all tacklers with 17 stops. The big day pushed Ross past his old mark as he upped the CSU school record for tackles in a season to 131. Jonna Lee chipped in 14 tackles, while Josh Warrior also hit double digits with 11. For CCU, Anthony Steele led the way with six stops. CSU had eight tackles behind the line of scrimmage on the day, but couldn’t force the ball loose from the Chanticleers.

The Buccaneer football program continues to remember fallen teammate Eddie Gadson. Gadson went from walk-on to all-conference and was lost in a car accident before the 2005 season. 2007 would have been his senior season. His inspiration was a driving force toward the 2005 Big South Conference title. 63 Promoting Academic Excellence in a Christian Environment

2008 FB Media Guide Charleston Southern Buccaneers 2005 - A Championship Season On Nov. 12, 2005, a touchdown against Liberty with 1:10 remaining in the game clinched the first winning season in Charleston Southern history. The Bucs went on to beat nationally-ranked Coastal Carolina in double-overtime the next week to claim the football teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Big South Championship.

The 2005 team set a school record by winning their final five games of the season. The 2006 team continued the momentum, winning their first nine games to combine for the secondlongest winning streak in the nation at 14.

On April 9, 2006, immediately following the Edward A. Gadson Memorial Spring Game, fans flocked to the CSU Field House to celebrate footballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first conference championship in school history.

C h a r l e s t o n S o u t h e r n Buccaneers

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 2007-08 school year, the Buccaneers sponsored many events as a team and sent individual players to a number of different community service projects. Throughout the year, the team participated in 12 different community service projects, along with mentoring programs at two elementary schools, logging 654 total hours of community service. 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 athletes to serve as mentors at Ladson Elementary and Alice Birney Middle School, as well as participating in the Flowertown Elementary and Devon Forest Carnivals. “The (CSU) football players that served as mentors truly had a very positive impact on the boys,” said Celeste Bearden of Alice Birney Middle School. “I know this because the boys are continually talking to me about the group. The mentors really made them feel special.” 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. The football team had over 80 players show up to support the meet. “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.”

Annually, the Buccaneers partner with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes to host football summer camps. During the summer of 2007, the camps reached more than 750 young men. To raise money for the Eddie Gadson Memorial Scholarship, and the Eddie and Friends organization, created by Eddie Gadson’s parents in his memory, the Buccaneers helped at the 2008 Edward A. Gadson Memorial Golf Tournament, entering teams as well has helping around the event. The Buccaneers also sent team members to Catalyst, the Peony Street Rebuilding Project, as well as helping with Habitat for Humanity. Members also helped out with Water Missions International, a nonprofit organization working on a water purification system that was sent to Honduras to allow them safe drinking water.

“The team served with enthusiasm and were willing to help out in any way that they could,” said Corey Humphries, Catalyst Coordinator. “They provided quality service and were all respectable, presentable, and men of character and integrity.”

Buccaneer’s Landing

Buccaneer Field and the Whitfield Stadium Center have been the home of the Buccaneer football team since the 1999 season. Going into the 2008 season, the Buccaneers are 30-21 all-time at home. The Buccaneers have posted winning seasons at home in each of the last four years and have posted just two seasons below .500 at home since the renovation. Prior to the 2005 Big South Championship season, the Buccaneers built a new scoreboard on the south end of the stadium, featuring a full-color Daktronics video board. Buccaneer Field has a 4,000 seat capacity, including chair back seats along the 50-yard line. The Whitfield Stadium Center houses the coaches’ offices, a thirdfloor suite that is available for banquets or other events, as well as a press area on the fourth floor. The top floor of the Whitfield Stadium Center is divided up to allow private boxes for each coaching staff, a home and visiting radio, as well as the press suite and stat crew. The president’s suite is also located on the top floor. Roof access is also available for television cameras to catch all of the action. Buccaneer Field will play host to six home games in 2008. November 1, CSU will hold its annual Homecoming and Hall of Fame weekend, and November 15 will feature the Buccaneer Seniors. 66 Promoting Academic Excellence in a Christian Environment

About the Big South Conference The Big South Conference is celebrating its 25th Anniversary in 2008-09, a milestone coming on the heels of unprecedented achievements and unparalleled success in League history over the past few years. Since its founding in 1983, the Big South Conference has matured into a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence on the field of play and in the classroom. The League’s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic conference is evident by athletic accomplishments on the national stage, innovative marketing and media partnerships, increased television packages, and quality athletic competition while intentionally fostering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. 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 began recruiting members into the Big South, receiving initial commitments from Augusta, Charleston Southern, Campbell University, Coastal Carolina and Winthrop. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to solicit new members. His efforts led to the additions of Armstrong State, Radford and UNC Asheville, giving the Big South more than the required six members to constitute an official conference. The Big South’s first year of competition was in the fall of 1984, and in September 1986, the Big South Conference was granted full-fledged NCAA Division I status. During its infancy and prior to securing automatic bids to NCAA Championships, the Big South made early strides in earning at-large berths in several national postseason events, including volleyball, women’s basketball and women’s golf. The League received its first automatic bid in 1990 to the NCAA Baseball Championship. 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.

In the last 15 years alone, the Big South Conference has experienced monumental growth and success in nearly every sport. During this time, the Conference has had two individual National Champions, close to 200 All-Americans, has reached the “Sweet 16” in men’s soccer, women’s basketball and baseball, has received national Top 25 rankings in men’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball, men’s outdoor track & field, and men’s golf, had an individual selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship three times, had the No. 1 ranked men’s golfer in the country, had the national team and individual scoring leader in men’s basketball twice, received an at-large playoff berth in the Football Championship Subdivision in 2006, and had an institution finish fifth in the NCAA Men’s Golf Championships – the Conference’s highestever team finish in an NCAA event. In 2006-07 alone, the Big South was the only Conference nationwide to have an at-large participant in the football playoffs (Coastal Carolina), a team in the Second Round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament (Winthrop) and a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Baseball Regionals (Coastal Carolina). In fact, Coastal Carolina’s baseball program has been a No. 1 seed three out of the last four years, while its playoff berth in 2006 came in just the fifthyear of the Big South’s football existence. In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the League’s third Commissioner, and in his 12 years at the helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the Conference to new levels. The Conference has enjoyed record levels in marketing revenue during the past several years. He has brought television coverage to Big South women’s basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in Conference history, as well as increased national television exposure to the League as a whole through aggressive and unique television packages. Under Kallander’s leadership, the Big South developed and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, reaffirming the

About the Big South Conference League’s vision as a distinctive athletic Conference committed to the quality of institutional life through athletic competition. He also spearheaded the efforts to add football as a championship sport, which came to fruition in 2002. Kallander’s long-range vision has also included technological advancements, as the Conference introduced its first live event video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to more than 500 events annually through a partnership with the member institutions, as well as the creation of a Conference blog and an online merchandise store. The Conference’s on-field accomplishments have been duplicated in the classroom. Annually, more than 40 percent of Conference student-athletes are named to the Big South’s Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumulative 3.0 gradepoint average, and the League has had more than 90 Academic All-Americans in its quarter-century of existence.
