2012 BUCS’ COACHING STAFF
HEAD COACH JAY MILLS The 2012 season will be Jay Mills’ 10th 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. From 2005-2009, Mills and the Buccaneers were the winningest coach and program in the Big South Conference, while also facing the most FBS opponents of any FCS school during the same stretch. 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 offenseive record books. 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, while Gerald Stevenson shattered the all-purpose yardage record for CSU and the Big South. The 2009 squad was also named the Big South Sportsmanship Award winner. 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. Members of Fellowship of Oak Brook Church where Mills serves as a deacon, Mills and his wife, Kimberly, reside in Goose Creek and are the parents of six children; Stacey Jo (27), Josh (23), Jared (22), Chris (20), Derek (19) and David (14), and on July 12, 2008, the Mills added son-in-law Ryan Tié to the family, and the Mills’ first grandchild, Evelyn, was born last fall. His son, Jared, graduated from CSU in the spring of 2011, and is engaged to Meredith Bradley, who also graduated from CSU in 2011 and is the daughter of Assistant A.D. James Bradley.

2012 PREVIEW Following a trying 2011 season which added fuel to offseason workouts, Charleston Southern looks to turn the page in 2012 and return to the winning ways which saw the program compile the Big South’s most victories from 2005-2009. Morale will not be a problem for the Bucs, as excitement continues to abound – both within the team itself and in the athletic department as a whole – over the new Athletic Facility that the football and track programs call home. Completed in July, the center houses spacious locker rooms for football and track, as well as a state-of-the-art athletic training facility. CSU football moved into its new digs just before the calendar turned to August, and has already enjoyed the upgrades. “One of the reasons I came to CSU is because of the improvements that were coming,” CSU junior quarterback Malcolm Dixon said. “It’s great to have a new locker room. Our old one was small so this is great for the whole team to have some more room – some man space. It’s exciting to think when I look back on this, I can say I was one of the first to use it. That’s special for me.” Perhaps no one within the Buccaneer Football family has a better perspective on the new building than 10th year head coach Jay Mills, who acknowledged the role played by every CSU athlete to strap on shoulder pads since the university began its football tradition in 1991. “This facility is built on the shoulders of the past players,” said Mills. “Facilities make a difference, no doubt about it. But it is the people that make this place.” In keeping with that philosophy, the players that comprise this year’s CSU roster hope to instill pride in those that came before them by making significant strides from a season ago. SCHEDULE CSU has challenged itself in recent season openers against the likes of Central Florida, Florida, and Miami. The Bucs will have to wait until week three to face off an FBS opponent this year, but the first two contests of the campaign figure to be pivotal in the march toward success.
OFFENSE The battle for the starting quarterback position was one of the prominent storylines of spring ball for Charleston Southern, and continues to be so during fall camp. Redshirt junior Derek Hatcher supplanted junior Malcolm Dixon at the top of the depth chart in the spring, and each has provided highlights in the lead-up to the season. Hatcher, a left-handed thrower from Orange Park, Fla., has seen limited game action to this point of his career, but showed great improvement in his passing and decision making to assume the top spot in spring. Dixon, a former wide receiver who started eight games as the Bucs’ signal caller last season, continues to grow as a quarterback and a passer. The Tifton, Ga. native possesses a strong arm and intangibles, but his greatest asset may be his athleticism and ability to make plays on the move. No matter who gets the starting nod come opening day, it would not be a surprise to see the other receive snaps between the lines on Saturdays as well. Whoever is behind center at The Citadel on September 1 will have an experienced and talented receiving corps at their disposal. The leader of the group is junior Nathan Perera. Perera had only six catches through four games last season, but erupted for 37 grabs, 642 yards and four touchdowns over the last seven contests of the year. That performance earned him a nod to the Big South’s First Team All-Conference Offense, as he concluded the campaign second in conference games with 5.33 receptions and 94.4 yards per game. Perera hauled in ten passes for 232 yards – nine off the program’s single-game record – and two touchdowns against Stony Brook, and that kind of game-breaking ability is the reason he was tabbed to the Big South’s All-Conference Preseason Team. Perera may take most of the headlines, but CSU’s other receivers can wreak havoc in opposing secondaries, and feature a diverse array of talents. Senior Mike Davis, a former junior college running back, thrived in the slot last season, finishing second on the club in receptions with 23. Davis figures to remain a primary target in the short to intermediate passing game, where his sure hands and powerful running style make him tough to handle.
Added excitement surrounds CSU’s opener, as the Bucs travel to downtown Charleston to meet The Citadel for the first time since 2007. A renewal of the Holy City’s local rivalry, and a primetime kickoff to boot, will fuel the Bucs’ fire as they look to down the Bulldogs for the first time since a dramatic 38-35 overtime triumph in 2006. Following The Citadel matchup, CSU returns home to christen the new athletic facility with its first gameday experience. Jacksonville will be the opponent for the Bucs on September 8, as CSU looks to avenge a narrow road loss to the Dolphins last year. CSU then heads back on the road in week three, jetting to Champaign, Ill. for a matchup with Illinois, marking the Bucs’ first-ever meeting against a Big Ten foe. A road bout with Shorter, and a home date with Edward Waters, put a bow on CSU’s out-of-conference slate. As usual, CSU will be tested in league play, as it faces the top three teams in the Big South (as predicated in the preseason coaches’ poll) on the road in Stony Brook, Liberty, and Coastal Carolina. Home clashes with VMI, Presbyterian, and Gardner-Webb also highlight the docket and figure to generate interest among the local CSU fan base.

The Bucs’ new fieldhouse and locker room is part of a fresh start in 2012.
2012 PREVIEW Another bright spot in 2011 was the play of junior college transfer Corvaughn Archie, who emerged as a go-to target in conference play. Archie’s breakout day came against Coastal Carolina in a back-and-forth, 45-38 shootout, as he tallied 11 catches for 204 yards. He finished the campaign with 19 catches for 355 yards, leading the club with an 18.7 yard per catch average. Junior Kirby Broome has also proven to be a reliable target over the middle, while Chase Jones emerged late in the year and brought in a pair of touchdown catches. Redshirt sophomore Estevan Cintron also has game repetitions under his belt, thanks to the three starts he earned last year. While the quarterback competition has received its share of the spotlight, the success of the CSU offense in 2012 could be largely predicated on the offensive line and an ability to generate more consistent production in the running game. Due in part to injuries, the Bucs struggled to run the football in 2012, averaging less than 100 yards per game, and three yards per carry. Nick Kemper returns as the elder statesman of the offensive line as the starting center, while right tackle Austin Spears and right guard Clayton Truitt figure to form a strong right side after gaining valuable experience a year ago. On the left side, Mose Countryman will protect the quarterback’s blind side at tackle, while Jean Bazile returns from injury to start at left guard. Jason Edmonds provides experience on the line as a back-up at guard, while the Bucs’ depth and youth is served with the likes of freshmen Blake Stone and Benny Timmons. Competition abounds at running back, where Keelyan Bryant tops the depth chart. Trey Dorsey, Teddy Allen, and Zac Frazier all figure to see carries, however. Allen led CSU with 360 rushing yards and two touchdowns in 2011, while Bryant provides speed and Frazier added burst and power. Dorsey is also dangerous and adds a big-play dimension, as he showcased his explosiveness in the return game against Central Florida and Florida State last year before succumbing to injury against Jacksonville. When Dixon is at quarterback, CSU will have another weapon in the run-game as the Jacksonville native torched his home-town school for 163 yards on 27 carries last year. DEFENSE A blend of experienced talent and impact newcomers hope to combine and produced a new and improved CSU defense. The man in charge of that unit is a new face, as Shawn Quinn takes over as defensive coordinator after spending two years as the linebackers coach at Georgia Southern. Quinn hopes to bring a Southern Conference attitude and a more aggressive style of play to the Bucs, and players have been energized by his coaching style thus far. CSU plans to implement multiple schemes, but its greatest strength may be in the defensive backfield. Senior cornerback Charles James piled up many preseason accolades over the summer, including being named Big South Preseason Defensive Player of the Year. James enters the year one interception shy of tying Phillip Ashley’s program record, and hopes to lead with his play on the field and enthusiasm on and off it. The coaching staff is also excited about the talent of junior college transfer Damian Dixon, who sits opposite James and could give opposing quarterbacks plenty of problems. Juniors Demaris Freeman and Matt Hardy give the Bucs’ experience and dependability at strong and free safety, meanwhile.
Mills and the Bucs will try to bounce back from an injury-plagued year and capitalize on depth and experience developed in 2011. redshirt junior defensive end Will Hunt looks to lead a front four which returns plenty of familiar faces. Hunt led the Bucs with four sacks and 10.5 tackles for loss in 2011, and hopes to get help from fellow defensive end Cornelius Sterling, as well as tackles Isaac McKenzie and James Smith. Sterling, McKenzie, and Jacque Carter provided valuable experience on the front, while Smith hopes to build off a stellar freshman season in which he proved his worth against both the run and pass. Junior college transfer Zack Johnson has impressed at outside linebacker in spring and fall, while Zac Johnston will man the other outside linebacker position. Gabe Middlebrook returns from injury at middle linebacker, while Brad Sweatt, Calvin Bryant, and 2nd team All-Big South performer Mike Chocholousek also hope to make a difference. SPECIAL TEAMS Strong special teams play is vital to the success of any squad, and the Bucs hope to produce that in 2012. Young talent will be relied on in the kicking game, as CSU looks to replace four-year punter and part-time place-kicker Andy Brown. Cameron Mitchell will aim to help CSU win the field-position battle at punter, while Mark Deboy takes off the kicking duties with T.J. Higgins and Tyson Pryor also willing and able to lend a hand. Charles James is always a threat in the punt game, and will hope to spark CSU as a punt returner. Sophomore Kevin Glears possesses some of the best straight-line speed on the Bucs’ roster, meanwhile, and the Goose Creek product strives to show that off as the primary kick returner alongside Trey Dorsey. Dorsey is shifty and proved tough to bring to the turf in his injury-shortened freshman season as he broke big returns against both Central Florida and Florida State.
Applying pressure on the passer is key to disrupting any offense, and

All Times Eastern * Denotes Big South Conference Game
Charleston Southern’s youth and inexperience was no match for the reigning Conference USA Champions, as the Knights of Central Florida (1-0) overpowered the Buccaneers (0-1) from the start and took the 62-0 on Saturday evening at Bright House Network Stadium in Orlando, Fla. With a large number of players making their collegiate debuts, CSU finished the night with 119 yards of total offense to UCF’s 560. Malcolm Dixon finished the night 6-of-15 for 50 yards with one interception while Richard Mounce was 3-for-3 for 20 yards. Nathan Perera led all CSU receivers with 24 yards on two catches, though Mike Davis was targeted most often with four catches for 12 yards. Tray Dorsey picked up 25 yards on seven attempts, while Teddy Allen added in 19. Andy Brown punted seven times for a total of 272 yards, and was 0-for-1 on field goals. Demaris Freeman led the Buccaneer defense with eight tackles, while Chris Kuzdale and Gabe Middlebrook each had seven. Middlebrook also had a tackle for a seven yard loss, while Delvon King picked up the Bucs lone sack of the night for a loss of five yards. Daniel Dieudonne had six tackles and a fumble recovery, and O’Brian Campbell and Matt Hardy combined for tackle for a loss of five yards. Jeff Godrey was 6-for-10 for 100 yards and ran for another 53 yards on seven attempts while Blake Bortles went 8-for-10 for 144 yards. Ronnie Weaver rushed for 107 yards on eight carries, while Josh Reese led all receivers with 97 yards on four catches. Lyle Dankenbring led the UCF defense with five tackles, with Jonathan Davis picking up the Knight’s only sack of the night for a loss of five yards and another TFL for a total of 10 yards. Josh Linam (five tackles), Ray Shipman (four tackles), Terrance Plummer (five tackles) and Toby Jackson (four tackles) each recorded a TFL, and Josh Robinson grabbed the only interception of the game for a 32-yard touchdown. The Knights overpowered the Bucs from the start, picking up touchdowns on their first two possessions. Five straight rushes from Weaver set up a seven-yard rushing touchdown for Godfrey to put UCF up 7-0 two and a half minutes into the first quarter. The Bucs’ inexperience showed on their first possession, as Dixon threw two incompletions in just his fourth career start to force a punt by CSU. The Knights were able to capitalize once again with a two-yard run by Latavius Murray to give them a 14-0 lead with 7:51 to go in the first quarter. CSU couldn’t pick up the first down on their next drive, and were once again forced to punt the ball way. However, a UCF fumble on the punt was recovered by Dieudonne at the UCF 44-yard line. CSU picked up the first down on a 19-yard Dixon pass to Perera and later went for it on fourth-and-three. Unfortunately, the Knights kept them out of the end zone and took over on downs on their own 20-yard line. Led by Godfrey, the Knights marched 80 yards down the field to add another TD on a one-yard run by Godfrey, stretching the UCF advantage to 21-0 with 10:56 to go in the half. At first, it looked as though CSU’s Charles James picked up his first interception of the season to give the Bucs the ball at the one-yard line; however, the play was overturned after further review allowing the Knights to convert on the drive. The Bucs had no answer to the Knights’ offensive prowess, going three-and-out on their next possession.

The Charleston Southern Buccaneers (0-8, 0-3)struck first, but couldn’t hold on to the lead as they fell to the Runnin’ Bulldogs of GardnerWebb (3-5, 2-2) by a score of 14-7 on a cold, wet Saturday afternoon at Spangler Stadium. Coming off of a strong performance in the second half of last week’s game vs. Liberty, quarterback Richard Mounce got his first career start for the Buccaneers and went 13-of-34 for 159 yard, a touchdown and an interception. Nathan Perera was his most-often targeted receiver with five catches for 78 yards. Corvaugh Archie had three catches for 48 yards while Mike Davis had two catches for a total of 23 yards, including the lone touchdown of the day. The Bucs were able to out-gain the Bulldogs 251-237 with 82 yards on the ground and 169 through the air. GWU’s 237 yards marked a season-low for the CSU defense. On the ground, it was Mounce who led the effort with 24 carries for 54 yards. BJ Hackworth had 10 carries for 17 yards, while Keelyan Bryant picked up nine yards as well. Andy Brown punted 10 times for a total of 388 yards (38.8 avg), putting two inside the 20. Michael Chocholousek led the Buccaneer defense with nine tackles, including a sack and a tackle for loss of seven yards. James Smith had 2.5 TFL and five total tackles, while Isaac McKenzie and Isaac Lowrance each recorded a sack. Demaris Freeman and Charles James each recorded seven stops, with James adding in a pass break up. James also ended the day with four punt returns for a total of 35 yards. Chandler Browning was 4-for-6 for 78 yards for the Runnin’ Bulldogs, while Lucas Beatty was 8-for-16 for 66 yards and a touchdown as GWU picked up 153 passing yards. Ricky Rhodes completed his lone pass attempt of the day for a nine-yard touchdown as well. Lyndon Leslie led all receivers with four catches for 85 yards, but it was Tray Schley’s 9-yard reception and two touchdowns that paved the way for the Runnin’ Bulldogs. They also picked up 52 yards from Ricky Rhodes and 45 more from J.J. Hubbard on the ground. Marty Patterson had 20 tackles for GWU, while Maurice Dickinson had 10 and added four sacks. The GWU defense sacked Mounce a total of seven times and recorded two interceptions and 11 quarterback hurries.

Nathan Perera doubled his career high for receiving yards, but his close-to-record setting performance wasn’t enough as the Charleston Southern Buccaneers fell to the Seawolves of Stony Brook 50-31 on Saturday afternoon at Buccaneer Field in Charleston. Perera finished the day with 232 receiving yards and two touchdowns, just nine yards shy of the school’s single-game record. Stony Brook rushed for 355 yards with two backs topping the 100-yard mark for the second straight week. Junior Miguel Maysonet rushed for 182 yards and four touchdowns while senior Brock Jackolski added 174 yards and two scores to lead the Seawolves. Both players topped the 1,000-yard mark for the season. “They’re an outstanding football team and they have been very successful running the football against everyone they have played,” said CSU head coach Jay Mills. “We knew the key for us was to stop them from running the football. I felt like we had a good plan but at times we didn’t execute it and we had some additional injuries at key positions.” Charleston Southern had its own problems establishing success on the ground, finishing the game with minus seven rushing yard. The Buccaneers lost 31 yards rushing on a bad punt snap and lost 23 yards to sacks. The CSU effort was highlighted by junior quarterback Richard Mounce and sophomore receiver Nathan Perea, who both enjoyed career days in the passing game. Mounce, making his second consecutive start in place of the injured Malcolm Dixon, completed 19 of 41 passes for a career-high 342 yards and three touchdowns. “I thought overall, he played very solid,” said Mills of Mounce’s performance. “Richard is a competitor in everything that he does and I think he’s getting better each and every week.” Perera became the second receiver in school history with more than 200 yards receiving, finishing with 232 yards on 10 catches. His yardage was the second highest total in school history. “Nathan has continued to perform well and he’s not at full speed either,” said Mills. “I thought he went up and again competed for the football. We’ve been pushing him to become a complete wide receiver and I think he has a chance to be a very special one before it’s all said and done.” Maysonet gave Stony Brook an early 6-0 lead on a 59-yard run on the Seawolves’ second offensive play. CSU answered with a nine-play, 45-yard drive that ended with Andy Brown’s 40-yard field goal with 10:55 remaining in the opening stanza. The Buccaneers took their only lead of the game two possessions later. A seven-yard punt gave CSU a first down at the Stony Brook 40 and Keelyan Bryant capped an eight-play drive with a one-yard run to give the Bucs a 10-6 lead with 2:26 left in the first period. Stony Brook took control in the second quarter, scoring three times. Brock had a five-yard run and Maysonet had run of three and 12 yards to give the Seawolves a 27-10 halftime lead. The third quarter saw offense on both sides. Mounce and Perera combined on a four-yard pass with 11:23 left in the third quarter, cutting the margin to 27-17. Stony Brook answered five plays and 80 yards later on Maysonet’s 43-yard run but Mounce again got the Bucs on the board, this time with an 18-yard pass to Carson Leshin with 7:24 to play in the third. Back in the game and down by 10, disaster struck when a punt snap snailed over Brown’s head into the endzone for a safety. On the ensuing possession, quarterback Kyle Essington scored on a six-yard run with 2:03 left in the third, upping the lead to 43-24.

Quarterback Richard Mounce eclipsed the 1,000yard passing mark for the season and wide receiver Corvaughn Archie had a career day with 205 yards but the Charleston Southern football team (0-10, 0-5) came up a touchdown short in a tough 45-38 loss to the Chanticleers of Coastal Carolina (6-4, 3-3) on Saturday afternoon at Buccaneer Stadium in Charleston. The game was CSU’s home finale, as well as the Bucs’ annual Senior Day celebration. Mounce had his second consecutive 300-yard game, throwing for a career high 397 yards and four touchdowns. He became the first quarterback since AJ Toscano in 2009 to throw for four touchdowns, and went 27-48 on the day with two interceptions. Archie was the most often targeted receiver with 11 catches for a career-high 204 yards. The Buccaneers put up more than 500 yards of total offense for the first time this season with 514 total years to the Chanticleers’ 430. Aramis Hillary was 14-24 for 175 yards, with Jamie Childers catching four passes for 92 yards and two touchdowns. Marcus Whitener ran 13 times for a total of 106 yards, but it was Hillary and Travis Small who scored the team’s rushing touchdowns. CCU recorded seven tackles for loss and two sacks, with reigning BSC Defensive Player of the Week Josh Norman leading the defense with eight tackles. In his second game back from injury, Teddy Allen rushed 15 times for 70 yards and a touchdown, while Nathan Perera (6 catches, 93 yards) and Chase Jones (5 catches, 80 yards) each caught a touchdown as well. Zac Johnston and Mike Chocholousek were the defensive leaders on the day, with 11 and nine tackles, respectively. Coril Joseph (three tackles) recorded the lone sack of the day. Chocholousek and Jacque Carter each picked off a Coastal Carolina pass. A fumble by the Buccaneers turned into points for the Chants, who scored on a 29-yard catch by Jamie Childers to take a 45-31 lead with 7:11 to go. Mounce hit Jones for 12 yards on the next drive and moved the chains 12 more yards with a 12yard pass to Archie. Jones had another catch for 14 yards before a personal foul on Coastal Carolina brought up first-and-10 at the CCU 38. Mounce found Archie for 28 yards before a pass interference penalty moved the spot to the CCU 2-yard line. Zach Frazier then ran in a 1-yard touchdown to cut the deficit to seven at 45-38 in favor of the Chanticleers. Neither team would score on their next possession as they Chanticleers took a knee to end the game with 45-38 win.

The Charleston Southern Buccaneers (011, 0-6) couldn’t overcome injuries to both starting quarterbacks and numerous other starters, falling by a score of 45-14 to the Presbyterian Blue Hose (4-7, 3-3) at Bailey Memorial Stadium in Clinton on Saturday afternoon in the season finale. Since the season began, starters Brad Sweatt, Chris Kuzdale, Gabe Middlebrook, Estevan Cintron, Brandan Davis, Teddy Allen and Tray Dorsey all suffered either season-ending injuries or injuries that caused them to miss significant amounts of time. Malcolm Dixon was injured in the Bucs’ loss to Liberty and was replaced by Richard Mounce for the next three games. Both Mounce and Dixon were hobbled entering today’s match up and split time at quarterback. The two combined for a total of 137 passing yards, going 7-for-23 as the Bucs put up a 270 yards of offense. Dixon went 4-for-6 with 79 yards in the air, including a 52-yard bomb to Carson Leshin. Mounce was 2-for-17 on the day with three interceptions. However, it was running back Teddy Allen that threw the lone passing touchdown of the day, a 34-yard trick play to Corvaughn Archie. Chase Jones and Mike Davis each had a catch as well. Keelyan Bryant led the ground attack, rushing 10 times for 52 yards while Allen had nine carries for 35 yards and a rushing touchdown. Zack Frazier also had 10 carries for 44 yards. Mike Chocholousek was again one of the defensive leaders for the Bucs, with 10 tackles, a tackle for a loss of three yards and a fumble recovery for 12 yards. Matt Hardy (three tackles) had the lone interception of the day, along with a pass break up and a quarterback hurry. Michael Parker had six tackles and a TFL of 12 yards, while O’Brian Campbell recorded three stops and a TFL as well. The Bucs allowed 225 rushing yards and 291 passing yards for a total of 516 yards on the day.

* - Big South Conference Champions 61
2005 BIG SOUTH CHAMPIONS 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 team’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 football’s first conference championship in school history.

BUCS 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. 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 a number of different community service projects, along with mentoring programs at two elementary schools. In 2010, CSU offensive lineman Jordan Lancaster was named to the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team. He was one of 22 athletes in all divisions of NCAA football to be named to the team, and was the first player in CSU or Big South history to receive the honor. 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 “Closing the Gap in Healthcare” 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 more than 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.” 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.”

2005 CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON PICKED AS FAN FAVORITE In 2009, the Big South Conference recently celebrated its 25th Anniversary.

The video created to commemorate the event was also named a finalist for the College Sports Video of the Year during the 2009 Global Media Awards.

The Big South Conference took a big step in its young history in the Fall of 2002 when, for the first time in its 19-year history, the League crowned a football champion. Football had always been a long range goal of the Conference. In the early 1990s, football seemed on the horizon in the Big South, as Charleston Southern fielded its first team in 1991 and the Conference added Liberty as a new member, which was already playing on the gridiron. However, football never got off the ground in the early part of the decade as other issues came to the forefront, including the Big South’s emergence as a basketball conference. The League was awarded its first automatic bid to the NCAA men’s basketball championship in 1992 and football was put on the back burner while basketball began to flourish. The idea was revived in 1997 when Elon joined the Big South. That gave the Conference three full-time members with football programs -- half the number needed to be recognized as a Conference by the NCAA. Two years later on Nov. 10, 1999, Coastal Carolina University announced it would add football by the Fall of 2003. The wheels were set in motion to establish a Conference home for the League’s football-playing members. After attempts to form a joint football conference with the Atlantic Sun Conference failed, the Big South began recruiting more members to join its fledgling football league. On May 23, 2001, the dream became a reality when the Big South’s Council of Chief Executive Officers voted unanimously to add football as the Conference’s 18th championship sport. It became the first sport added since 1997 when men’s and women’s indoor track were incorporated as championship sports. Shortly after the approval of football, the Big South’s recruiting efforts paid off, as the addition of Gardner-Webb University as an associate football member was announced on June 20, 2001. There were hopes that with the addition of the Runnin’ Bulldogs, a four-team League could begin play later that Fall, with Coastal Carolina coming into the fold in the 2003 season. However, scheduling conflicts could not be worked out, so the Fall of 2002 was designated as the kick-off to Big South Football. The Big South continued to look for additional members, with a goal of eventually having seven or eight playing members. On Dec. 10, 2001, one of the oldest
programs in the state of Virginia -- Virginia Military Institute, announced it would join the Big South in all sports in 2003 and maintain the Conference’s football membership at five following Elon’s departure. In 2006, the League moved one step closer to etching its status as a viable football Conference. First, Coastal Carolina Athletic Director Warren Koegel was appointed to the FCS Football Selection Committee, the Big South’s first-ever representative on a national football committee. On April 6, the Big South added Presbyterian College as its sixth football member. Presbyterian, now in the final year of its transition to Division I, officially joined the Big South in all sports in 2008. On May 26, 2006, the Big South announced that associate football member Gardner-Webb would join the Conference as full members on July 1, 2008, solidifying the Big South’s football make-up for years to come. With membership coming together, the Big South received a huge boost at the conclusion of the 2006 campaign. League champion Coastal Carolina became the first football member to advance to the postseason when the Chanticleers received an at-large berth in the NCAA Division I Football Championship. The Big South took another step closer to becoming eligible for an automatic berth when on March 20, 2007, the Conference announced the addition of Stony Brook University as an associate football member beginning in 2008. All the efforts came to fruition in the spring of 2008 when the NCAA announced the expansion of the FCS Playoffs from 16 to 20 teams beginning in 2010 and granting the Big South an automatic bid starting that year. The growth of Big South football has been exceptional since its inception just nine years ago. The Big South experienced its most successful campaign in 2006 with Coastal Carolina’s FCS playoff berth; two teams (Coastal Carolina and Charleston Southern) ranked in the national Top 25 in the same week for the first
BIG SOUTH CONFERENCE time; four appearances on the ESPN family of networks; and the first-ever NFL Draft pick and first finalist for the Walter Payton Award in Coastal Carolina’s Tyler Thigpen. In 2007, Liberty won the first of its four consecutive Big South football championships in record-breaking fashion just two years after finishing 1-10 overall; Coastal’s Jerome Simpson (second round) and Gardner-Webb’s Brian Johnston (seventh round) were selected in the NFL Draft, and the League’s five football members combined to average a Big South-record 7,488 fans per game. The Big South produced another nationally-ranked program in 2008 in Liberty, as well as its fourth NFL draft pick in three years – Liberty’s Rashad Jennings (seventh round). The 2010 season saw the Big South make noise around the country early in the season with two wins over FBS opponents on the same day, when Gardner-Webb won in overtime at Akron and Liberty defeated Ball State on the road on Sept. 11. Prior to the start of the season, Stony Brook extended its football membership through

the 2015 campaign. Individually, Liberty’s Mike Brown led the nation in total offense while Stony Brook was the only FCS team to have two 1,000yard rushers in Miguel Maysonet and Brock Jackolski. Coastal Carolina emerged from a three-way tie for first-place with the Big South’s first-ever automatic bid to the FCS Playoffs. The Chanticleers also became the first Conference member to host a football playoff game as Coastal faced Western Illinois in the first round at Brooks Stadium. The Conference also had its largest television package to date, as a record eight League games were broadcast while Big South football members appeared on TV 12 of the 13 weeks of the season. November 2011 was a special month for the Big South. The Conference had two players (Josh Norman and Justin Bethel) named official candidates for the Buchanan Award for the first time; two Big South teams (Liberty and Stony Brook) were nationally- ranked in the same week for just the second time in League history; and Conference champion Stony Brook rallied from 18 points to defeat Albany for a first round

victory in the FCS playoffs -- the Big South’s first post- season football win. Individually, the Big South had two football student-athletes (Pat Kelly and Marcus Lott) receive CoSIDA Academic All-America honors for the first time, and Norman and Bethel were selected in the NFL Draft. The start of the 2012 season features the Big South’s largest television package to date -- including a TV appearance every week of the season. With an automatic playoff berth officially awarded to its annual champion, the Big South is poised to continue its ascension as a national competitor in FCS football with an eye on advancing in the postseason and capturing the ultimate goal – a national championship.
