2009 VMI Preview

More experience could be key to Keydet Football success in '09.

Second-year head coach Sparky Woods will lead a squad that will have a powerful rushing attack, a revamped defense, a more veteran look and more depth on the roster than has been seen this decade. VMI returns 41 letterwinners and 18 starters this fall, including nine on offense as well as nine defensively. Freshman, a classification that has been splashed liberally through VMI football rosters over the years, will not be as prevalent on the 2009 roster. Last year, 47 players held freshman eligibility status.This fall, that number has been reduced to 33. Combine those elements with another productive spring practice and off-season strength and conditioning program, and the Keydets enter August camp with raised expectations for a program that has taken the measured and methodical steps to improvement. In 2008,VMI doubled its win total from the previous year and finished with a winning home mark for the first time in six seasons.

Offense

In Woods’ first year at the helm, the VMI spread option offense continued to roar, as the Keydets averaged 34.4 points per game and led the nation in rushing, averaging 357.5 yards per contest and setting school and Big South single-season marks in the process. In addition, the Keydets converted all those ground yards into 37 rushing touchdowns, the second-most in conference history. At home, the offense was even more formidable, as the Keydets went 4-2 at Foster Stadium and averaged 42.7 points per game. The year culminated with 648 yards in the season finale with a conference-record 10.45 yards per play.

Quarterback

Leading the returnees on offense is senior quarterback Tim Maypray, a dynamic playmaker who was voted 2009 Big South Conference Offensive Preseason Player of the Year. A quick scan of Maypray's 2008 accolades leaves no doubt as to why he is regarded as a premier performer. Converted to QB after playing slotback his first two seasons, Maypray rushed for 1,266 yards, the fifth-best season in VMI history. He ranks second in career all-purpose yards in BSC history (4,279) and had six 100-yard plus rushing games in '08, including a career-high 235 yards against Presbyterian, 134 yards vs.W&M and 130 yards vs. Ohio.

Slotback Depth and experience highlight the slotback positions with four upperclassmen all with starting experience returning this season. At "A' back, senior Zach Collins will rotate with junior Gabe Itoka, while juniors Michael Rainey-Wiles and Bryan Barnson will patrol the "T" slot.

Maypray, the only player in league history with at least 1,000 career rushing yards and 1,000 career receiving yards, was twice named Big South Player of the Week in ‘08 and had seven straight games with at least a 40+ yard run and four games with at least a run of 60+ yards.

Collins, the most experienced of the group, again proved to be a big part of the offense in 2008, playing in all 11 games with 10 starts at slotback. He led the position in knockdowns with 25 and was fourth on the team in rushing with 313 yards on 34 carries, scoring three touchdowns. Itoka has proven to be a valuable reserve, spot starter and special teams player in his career, gaining 232 yards rushing for a 6.4 ypc average and reaching the end zone three times last season.

The Keydets boast one of the best quarterback tandems in the FCS ranks, as senior quarterback Kyle Hughes returns to augment the VMI offense. The presence of Hughes gives VMI a respected passing presence, which was further developed in spring practice and will force opposing defensive coordinators to prepare differently for the VMI attack.

Rainey-Wiles has big-play explosiveness and tied for the team lead in receptions while ranking second in receiving yardage last season, starting all 11 games. Barnson converted from wide receiver to slot last year, giving the position quality depth in the process. He participated in 344 total plays and lettered for the second time after gaining 135 yards on 20 carries for a 6.8 average.

The Williamsburg native has great poise and presence while possessing a respected throwing arm. He has improved his execution of the option game and is a returning all-conference performer that gives VMI the depth that is desired at the QB position by any team running an option system. When Hughes was inserted at QB last year, the Keydets utilized Maypray's big-play capability even more while keeping defenses honest. Maypray caught seven passes on the year, including a 75yard TD vs. Presbyterian in the season finale.

Running Back VMI also has a capable duo at the all-important "B" back position that helps trigger the ground game. Senior Howard Abegesah returns to lead an experienced running corps and has thrived at the "B" back position, bringing all the tools to the position as a physically-tough and punishing runner. Abegesah recovered from injury to finish in strong fashion last year and should again vie for all-conference honors among the league's elite runners. He enters the season with nine career 100-yard games, tying him for fourth-most in school history, and was selected Second Team AllBig South Conference in 2008. Abegesah ranked fifth in the BSC in rushing and finished the season with back-to-back strong Senior Tim Maypray was voted as the Big South’s efforts against Stony Brook (109 yards) and 2009 Preseason Offensive Player of the Year.

Presbyterian (151 yards). Redshirt sophomore Chaz Jones also showed he could handle the role at "B" back and filled in well when Abegesah was sidelined by injury last year.

Wide Receivers The receivers could play an expanded role in the offense this year, as a significant portion of spring practice was devoted to developing the passing game.VMI attempted just 78 passes last year, nearly 50-percent short of the 2007 total. However, of the 36 2008 completions, a third of them went for Keydet touchdowns. Headlining the receivers group is junior Mario Scott, a deep threat who caught six passes for 90 yards last season, including a 46-yard touchdown and demonstrated his blocking ability by leading the group in knockdowns. Another receiver that could stretch the secondary is redshirt freshman Aaron Lewis, who snagged a TD pass for his only catch of the year before having his 2008 season shortened by injury. Lewis is looking forward to a healthy and productive season and will be counted on to contribute. Sophomore Justin Hickman was converted from quarterback to wide receiver in spring drills and will add depth to the group.

Offensive Line The offensive line returns four starters with substantial experience and will once again provide the foundation for the offense in its hope to achieve even greater heights in 2009. The group has collectively helped VMI garner three-consecutive Big South Conference rushing crowns, including school and Big South records of

ners and nine starters return to the unit, although several will be seeing new positions in the 3-4 alignment this fall after being moved in spring drills.

Defensive Line On the defensive line, redshirt junior Ben Brandt returns after a year at offensive tackle. Brandt will team with Patrick McKinney, a convert from linebacker, to cover one defensive end slot. Brandt led all defensive interior linemen in tackles with 39 as a redshirt freshman in 2007. McKinney has started every game of his career and has 189 career tackles, but will be working to adapt to a new position, one he excelled at in the spring. Junior Damiso Alexander will work at the other end position, has improved with two years starting experience and will be counted on for leadership.The nose guard position will be anchored by junior Josh Wine, a returning two-year starter who has also been a standout wrestler for the Keydets.Wine started all 11 games at tackle on the defensive line in ‘08 and Redshirt sophomore A.J. Gross led the team with 67 compiled 34 stops to lead all defensive front tackles in his first season on the field and garnered players. Developing depth will be a key goal Second Team All-Big South accolades. for the defensive line and several newcomers will get a good look in preseason camp as two3,932 yards and 357.5 yards per game, topping the deep slots are filled. FCS charts in 2008.The line helped the Keydet offense amass 300+ yards rushing in eight games in 2008 and keyed a conversion rate of 26-of-32 (81.2%) red-zone scoring opportunities. Heading the group is senior and three-year starter George Handler, a returning all-conference performer at guard who was voted to the preseason all-conference squad this season. Handler has 29 starts on the offensive line and is the only player to have seen action at all five offensive line positions. Also expected to return to the starting lineup are junior center James Boatright, who has made 20 consecutive starts on the offensive line and has led the team in knockdowns the past two seasons, and junior Bo Wren, who has become a dependable performer on the right side and will move to tackle after playing guard last year. Sophomore Steven Hite gained valuable experience stepping into a starting role late last season at right tackle and will move to left tackle this fall. Sophomore Rob Bailey will move into a starting role at right guard after getting a taste of action his true freshman season. Depth will be a concern and a priority in fall camp with redshirt sophomore Aaron Blue, a converted D-lineman now at offensive tackle, sophomore center D'Angelo Smith, sophomore guard James Handler, and redshirt freshman guard Dave Stradford all expected to contribute. Junior Josh Favaro will move into the tight end slot after serving as an understudy to the graduated Travis Ludden for two seasons and will be backed up by classmate T.J. Guthrie, who moved over from defense.

Defense

Overall defensive improvement will be a key to VMI’s chances for success in 2009 as 22 letterwin-

Linebacker The outside linebackers will be led by redshirt junior Kris Ware and redshirt sophomore Emilio Calvin, both of whom are working at new positions this year.Ware returned to action in 2008 after a year's absence and was a fixture in the secondary at strong safety last year. This spring, he was moved to outside linebacker and is one of several Keydets who made a positive transition. Ware ranked sixth on the team with 49 tackles last season and had another outstanding year of strength and conditioning, becoming one of four Keydets to attain "Super Iron Keydet" status. Calvin had 53 tackles at defensive end last year, ranking him fifth on the team, and has also adapted well to his new position. Depth at outside linebacker will come from redshirt sophomore Julian Bowers, who lettered last year and also contributed to special teams, and redshirt freshman Terrell Lynch, who is eager to show what he can do and help the position’s depth. All-Conference performer A.J. Gross headlines the inside linebackers unit that must replace the graduated Jacob Rochester, an all-academic performer. In his first year in a starting role, Gross emerged as a defensive leader and was voted Second Team All-Conference after leading the team with 67 tackles and 14.5 tackles-for-loss, a total that ranked him second in the Big South. Redshirt sophomore Eric Church won the starting job to replace Rochester in the spring, but will be pushed by sophomore Josh Sneed. Both players are looking to expand their roles after playing mostly special teams last season and earning their first letters. Redshirt sophomore Alex Ray could also be in the mix at inside linebacker and will provide depth.

Defensive Back All eight players listed in the two-deep at secondary have lettered in years past, while six have seen substantial starting experience, giving the group its most promising picture in recent years. One newcomer to the mix is Kyle Nikmard, who swapped positions with Kris Ware and moves from outside linebacker to strong safety. Nikmard sat out spring practice while recuperating from shoulder surgery, but should be ready to go at the start of August camp. He is very familiar with the defensive scheme after ranking fourth on the team in tackles with 54 total stops in 2008. At corner, sophomore Juan Thrasher edged senior Bryant Youngblood for the starting role at boundary corner, but the pair should continue to vie for playing time in preseason camp.Thrasher moved into the starting lineup at cornerback the last five games of '08 and totaled 20 tackles on the season. Youngblood, the most experienced member of the secondary, is one of six players on the squad with three varsity letters and was third on the team in tackles last year with 59. At field corner, sophomore Greg Walker is listed to start, with redshirt freshman Tracy Hairston pushing for playing time. Redshirt sophomore Byron Allen has a new home at free safety after playing cornerback last year and will be paired at the position with letterman Tyler Reedy. Allen started 10 games in ‘08 and was second on the squad in tackles with 61, while Reedy contributed as both a starter and reserve last year.

Special Teams

The kicking game is a question mark entering the season, as the departure of freshman Greg Stevens and sophomore Patrick Sweeney have jolted the depth chart. Candidates to fill the punting role include sophomore Cameron Murray and redshirt sophomore Marc Ray, while freshmen David Eberhardt and Jeff Sexton are expected to battle for the kicking job.

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. This has evolved into the Conference's mission of "Developing Leaders Through Athletics." 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, 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. In 1989, George F. "Buddy" Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton as Commissioner, and in 1990, the League received its first automatic bid - receiving an automatic qualifier to the NCAA Baseball Championship. Under Sasser's seven years of 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 August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the League's third Commissioner, and in his 13 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, re-affirming the League's vision as a distinctive athletic Conference com-

mitted 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, and has solidified Conference membership with the additions of High Point, Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian, and in 2011-12, the return of charter member Campbell University. 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 600 events annually through a partnership with the member institutions, as well as the creation of several online and social media platforms. 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, more than 200 AllAmericans, 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 four times in addition to the first men's tennis doubles at-large selection, had the No. 1 ranked men's golfer in the country, has had the nation's top scoring men's basketball team three consecutive years as well as the national men's basketball scoring leader 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 highest-ever 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 five years, while its FCS playoff berth in 2006 came in just the fifth-year of the Big South's football existence. The Conference's tagline, "Developing Leaders Through Athletics" was unveiled in 2008-09 in conjunction with the Conference's 25th Anniversary. The League also honored its heritage with the Top 25 "Best of the Best" moments in League history from 1983-2008, with Liberty University's 10-year women's basketball championship run from 1996-2007 being crowned the No. 1 moment in the Big South's first 25 years. The Conference's on-field accomplishments have been duplicated in the classroom. Annually, more than 40 percent of Conference studentathletes are named to the Big South's Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average, and the League has had more than 95 Academic AllAmericans in its quarter-century of existence.

Superintendent General Peay Schools receiving reaffirmation of accreditation. Modernized and technologically enhanced academic buildings and a full academic support staff complement splendid instructors.The Institute receives annual national and state recognition for its programs.

General J.H. Binford Peay III General J. H. Binford Peay III,VMI Class of 1962, became the Institute's 14th Superintendent on July 1, 2003.Through Vision 2039, he has ushered in a period of enthusiasm, growth, and change throughout all aspects of VMI. Never losing sight of VMI's primary "academic focus," which he emphasizes as "first among equals," Vision 2039 sets forth a plan that will guide the Institute for decades to come, as it moves toward its 200th anniversary. Enhancing the physical and cultural environment is a key component for the future. Full renovations of Nichols Engineering Hall, Crozet Hall, Mallory Hall, and J.M. Hall have recently been completed, with a major modernization project at Kilbourne Hall, a new Leadership and Ethics Center, and a third Barracks all in "full swing." In addition to the new third barracks structure, this project will include modernization of all rooms in the current Old and New Barracks as well. General Peay and his staff have also spent hundreds of hours buried in the details of cadet leadership functions, cadet organizations, the regimental and class systems, the Honor System, and the cadet daily schedule. "We must have the daily schedule right; leadership, cadet life, study time, management skills, and everything else at VMI evolve around that," says General Peay. Academically,VMI remains a clear leader among undergraduate colleges. In July 2007, the Institute, in a superb performance, successfully completed its ten-year Compliance Certification by the Southern Association of Colleges and

Military and athletics combine with academics to form the historic three-legged stool at VMI, and both play major roles in Vision 2039. A significant increase in commissioning is called for as General Peay emphasizes the importance of military service, not necessarily as a career, but rather for a couple of years in the true spirit of the citizen-soldier. Over the past five years, the percentage of graduating cadets receiving commissions has grown from 34% to 51%. A strong proponent of athletics,Vision 2039 (and "every cadet an athlete") calls for huge capital building efforts which will benefit intercollegiate teams, club teams, intramural sports, and the Corps in general.The initial and most obvious effort is the newly renovated football stadium at Alumni Memorial Field, dedicated - Foster Stadium - in September 2006 in honor of P.Wesley Foster, Jr., VMI Class of 1956.The Gray-Minor Baseball Stadium, named in honor of Senator Elmon Gray '46 and G. Gilmer Minor, III '63, and the Paulette Locker Room complex in honor of Bill Paulette '69 were completed and dedicated in March 2007. A lacrosse-soccer stadium, additional multi-purpose fields, new Corps confidence courses, tennis courts, RAT Challenge courses, and an improved cross country "Chessie Trail" are planned for the North Post area and will "round-out" what General Peay calls "leadership valley." General Peay considers his Superintendency as an opportunity to give something back to VMI which has had such a significant influence on his life and that of his family. His Father, J.H.B. Peay, Jr. was a graduate of the VMI Class of 1929, and he and his wife, Pamela, have two sons, who are also graduates: Jim, Class of '98, and Ryan, Class of '02. Born in Richmond,Virginia on 10 May 1940, General Peay, upon graduation, was commissioned a Second Lieutenant of Field Artillery, embarking on a 35-year career in the United States Army. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering from VMI, a Masters of Arts degree from George Washington University, and he is also a graduate of the United States Army War College. As

a cadet, he was a quarterback on the football team, a member of the Honor Court, a Battalion Commander and awarded the Institute's prestigious Cincinnati Medal at graduation. He assumed command of the 101st Airborne Division on 3 August 1989 and led the Division throughout Operations DESERT SHIELD and DESERT STORM in the Persian Gulf. Promoted to Lieutenant General in 1991, he was assigned as the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations and Plans, Department of the Army and Senior Army Member, United States Military Committee, United Nations and on 26 March 1993, he was promoted to the rank of General and appointed the 24th Vice Chief of Staff of the United States Army. His last assignment was Commander-in-Chief, United States Central Command, MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, from 5 August 1994 to 13 August 1997, with responsibility for the region encompassing twenty countries in Africa, the Middle East, Persian Gulf and South Asia. General Peay is currently Chairman, the Allied Defense Group, and a Director with BAE Systems, Inc.

Athletic Director Donny White The most ambitious capital improvements to athletic facilities in 20 years have been launched under the Vision 2039 initiative of VMI Superintendent General J.H. Binford Peay, and Athletic Director Donny White has been a guiding force in the process. Over the past several years, both the football and baseball programs have seen their facilities significantly upgraded with the additions of P.Wesley Foster, Jr. '56 Stadium and Gray-Minor Stadium. Also, the Keydet programs have hosted several highly-regarded visitors and set attendance records during White's tenure, including during the 200809 campaign, as this past season saw VMI lacrosse host top-ranked Virginia and Keydet basketball draw 5,029 to a game with Big South rival Liberty in Cameron Hall.

White is entering his 27th year in VMI Athletics, having spent 15 seasons as a coach and the past 11 years as Athletic Director. Upon his return in 1998,White immediately went to work addressing the challenging issues facing the VMI athletic department. At the same time, he has built support for intercollegiate athletics among the VMI community and its alumni. His effort has resulted in a change in conference affiliation, increased funding for operations, the development of women's athletics, and a better overall competitive environment for VMI sports. In 2008-09, the Keydet programs posted several notable results:VMI basketball posted 24 wins and came within just one victory of the program's fourth NCAA tournament appearance, as twin brothers Chavis and Travis Holmes became the top scoring twins at the NCAA Division I level. In addition, runner Donnie Cowart earned All-American honors in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, while women's soccer finished at .500 for the first time and earned its initial post-season win, a 2-1 win over Winthrop in the first round of the Big South Championship. Finally,VMI won the Big South Sportsmanship award for the fourth-consecutive season. White compiled a distinguished VMI coaching career in two sports spanning 15 years. He joined the football staff in 1971 and helped lead the Keydets to two Southern Conference Championships and a State Championship. White coached the defensive backs to a number one national ranking in 1975 and a number four ranking the following season. He served as VMI co-defensive coordinator from 1976 to 1981 and had the Southern Conference's top-ranked defense in 1977. His defensive

backfields led the conference in pass defense three times. White also recruited seven football players who were selected all-conference. In the fall of 1981,White became VMI head baseball coach and began to resurrect a program that had not won a Southern Conference game the three previous years. His 1982 debut squad compiled six league wins and White was named Southern Conference Co-Coach of the Year. His teams won 85 games in six years and his 1987 squad reached the Southern Conference championship game. While serving as baseball coach,White also taught on the Physical Education staff as an assistant professor. White is a 1965 graduate of VMI with a B.S. degree in civil engineering. As a cadet, he was a Distinguished Military Student, named Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities, and was awarded the VMI Intercollegiate Athletic Award for excellence.White co-captained the 1964 VMI football team and was selected All-Southern Conference in baseball for three consecutive years as a shortstop while also leading the team in batting. He was inducted into the VMI Sports Hall of Fame in 1975. After graduation from VMI,White was commissioned as a field artillery officer in the U.S. Army and served a tour of duty in Vietnam. His decorations include the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, and Air Medal with four oak leaf clusters. White and his wife, Bettie, have four children, Kyle, Katherine, Shannon and Bryan.

VMI Football History & Traditions

100

KEYDETS AND KANGAROOS No, the Keydet is not a kangaroo, although the term "Keydets" has been used over the years to refer to VMI's athletic teams and the kangaroo has become the established mascot. The kangaroo was adopted as VMI's mascot in 1947 when two VMI cheerleaders saw a picture of a kangaroo on the front of the magazine and realized how uncommon the animal was as a mascot.The marsupial was originally named "TD Bound", but sometime later his identity changed to "Moe". VMI is one of only four colleges across the nation to have a kangaroo as a mascot, and only one of two schools among NCAA Division I institutions.The University of Akron's "Zippy" joins "Moe" as the only kangaroos in the Division I ranks. The source and/or meaning of the nickname "Keydets" is not as easy to find.The term began to catch on in the mid 1930's - prior to that time, the football team was referred to as "The Flying Squadron". A popular, but unproven, explanation of the word "Keydet" is that due to the Southern drawl of some of the members of the Corps of Cadets, the common term cadet was transformed into Keydets.There are, of course many other possibilities. Regardless of which explanation is correct, the word "Keydet" like kangaroo, will continue to identify VMI's athletic teams.

ance in September 1958, replacing the original Little John, which was retired to the VMI museum after the undefeated football season of 1957. The cannon presently used was designed by the late Col. Cary S. Tucker of the VMI faculty and is a three-fifths scale replica of a 1750 howitzer used in the Revolutionary War. It has a 20-inch barrel, which is adorned at the top by a shield from a cadet shako. The cannon is fired when the Keydets take the field, after a VMI score, and at the end of each quarter of play.

LITTLE JOHN The loud and thunderous booms that permeate the confines of Alumni Memorial Field on gameday Saturdays come from Little John, II, the Corps' own cannon.The present cannon used made its first appear-

THE 12TH MAN Few football playing institutions can boast 100 percent attendance of its student body at every home game. At VMI, the 1,400 member Corps of Cadets is present to support the Keydets for every contest at Alumni Memorial Field - from the opening kickoff to the final gun. Approximately 45 minutes before kickoff on home game Saturdays, the Corps forms in front of barracks for the traditional pre-game marchdown to Alumni Memorial Field. The Corps is also responsible for the colorful and highly visible "spirit" sheets that are draped from Cocke Hall located across the street from the north stands of the stadium. Each company in the cadet Corps designs its own banner and the project is carried out from start to finish by the respective company's "rats", or freshmen.

RHODES SCHOLARS Two VMI football players have earned the distinction of being Rhodes Scholars. Lee D. Badgett was selected in 1961, and Robert C. Randolph was named in 1967. Overall, four VMI athletes have been selected Rhodes Scholars including former VMI superintendent Josiah Bunting, III, a former swimmer from the class of 1963. ALUMNI MEMORIAL FIELD AT FOSTER STADIUM The home field of the Keydets was dedicated on October 15, 1921 in a game against the University of Virginia. In 1962, stands were constructed on the south side of the stadium, bringing total capacity to 10,000. The largest crowd to witness a game in the facility was an overflow gathering that saw VMI take on Navy on VMI and The Citadel will resume their long-time battle for the Silver Shako in 2011. The trophy is September 15, 1973. The facility awarded to the winner of the series - known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Military Classic of the South.â&#x20AC;? received a major refurbishing in 2006 ern day football, was played on the VMI Parade Ground with 50 players a as part of the Foster Stadium improvements. side and won by Washington and Lee, 4-2. VMI did not officially recognize football as an intercollegiate sport FAMOUS ALUMNI PLAYED FOOTBALL until 1891, but many games had been played by cadet squads before that General George C. Marshall,VMI's most distinguished alumnus and time. class of 1901, played left tackle on the varsity football team. Serving his KEYDETS IN THE PROS Eleven former VMI football players have risen to the professional ranks.The first was Bosh Pritchard "the Hopewell Hurricane" who played for the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants between the 1942 and 1951 seasons.The two most recent VMI football alumni to play professionally were Mark Stock, who played wide receiver for Pittsburgh, Washington and Indianapolis between 1989 and 1996, and two-time AllAmerican Thomas Haskins,VMI's all-time leading rusher, who played five seasons with the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League. Bobby Ross, who captained the 1959 VMI football team, distinguished himself as a coach in both the collegiate and professional ranks, served head coach of the San Diego Chargers and Detroit Lions, guiding the former to Super Bowl XXIX at the conclusion of the 1994. At the collegiate level, he coached The Citadel, University of Maryland, Army and Georgia Tech, winning a share of the 1990 national title at the latter. TWO UNDEFEATED TEAMS VMI has fielded two undefeated teams in its 114-year old football history. The 1920 football squad, the "Flying Squadron" under coach Blandy Clarkson, is VMI's only undefeated and untied team. In 1920,VMI posted six shutouts on the year and tore through the likes of Virginia, North Carolina, and a highly rated Pennsylvania squad coached by the legendary John Heisman.The team outscored its opposition 431-20. The 1957 squad under Coach John McKenna went 9-0-1, captured the Southern Conference championship, and attained a ranking as high as 13th in the nation before finishing at 20th in the final Associated Press poll.The team was also extended an invitation to play in the Sun Bowl. Clarkson-McKenna Hall, the football building adjacent to Alumni Memorial Field, honors both coaches by bearing their names at the front entrance.The facility was dedicated in 1990.

country as both a soldier and statesman, Marshall rose to the rank of General of the Army and Chief of Staff during World War II, and his postwar achievements included ambassador to China, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, and the architect of the Marshall Plan. In 1953, General Marshall received the Nobel Prize for Peace. SCHOOL COLORS VMI's school colors are derived from the three colors that symbolized the three prominent branches of the United States Army. Dr. J.H. Campbell, a resident of Lexington and a distinguished graduate of the Institute, is credited with drawing on the significance of these colors and in 1886, wrote "Let red represent the Artillery,White the Infantry, and Yellow the Cavalry." The colors were gradually adopted for the athletic teams into the next century. VMI FOOTBALL AND THE SOUTHERN CONFERENCE Before joining the Big South,VMI was the oldest member in the Southern Conference and competed for the league crown for 78 years. VMI was admitted to the league in December, 1924 and captured seven league football crowns as a SoCon member. VMI won SoCon crowns in 1951, 1957, 1959, 1960, 1962, 1974, and 1977.
