2013-14 Sun Belt Men’s Basketball ABOUT THE SUN BELT
When Louisiana-Monroe quarterback Kolton Browning scampered 16 yards for the game-winning, overtime touchdown against eighth ranked Arkansas on September 8, it represented a banner moment for the Warhawks and the Sun Belt Conference. “It’s a great feeling; we feel like we deserve it,” Browning said after the game. “We believed the whole time, and we’ve believed that we could put something like this together. We knew this moment was coming.” Browning’s sentiment that his teams moment had finally arrived was a common attitude not just for ULM during the 201213 season. In fact, ULM’s win set off a firestorm of accomplishments for the Sun Belt Conference in what would become the most successful year in conference history since the league began sponsoring football. For the first time in league history, the SBC sent four teams to postseason bowl games. The SBC also posted a 7-2 record against Conference USA and tallied the highest non-conference win total in league history (19). This success led to the conference having its highest ever ranking in the BCS computer poll average – finishing ahead of both CUSA and the Mountain West Conference. League-champion Arkansas State defeated #25 Kent State in the GoDaddy.com Bowl 17-13 and Louisiana-Lafayette won its second consecutive R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl with a 43-34 victory over Conference USA’s East Carolina. The SBC has won four consecutive R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl games and six out of the last seven New Orleans Bowls with opponents having come from CUSA, the Mid-American Conference and the MWC. The 2012-13 men’s basketball season saw the league put
together its best non-conference RPI in four years while sending two teams to the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship. WKU earned its second consecutive trip to the NCAA postseason after winning the SBC Championship title and the league’s automatic qualifier. It was the Hilltoppers fourth appearance in the last six years and their 23rd in program history. Middle Tennessee, meanwhile, earned an at large bid to the NCAA Tournament which marked the first time since 1989 that the Blue Raiders reached the tournament. Notably, the Sun Belt’s men’s and women’s basketball teams combined for a record tying seven postseason appearances this past season. Of course, football and basketball weren’t the only sports that saw success. A Sun Belt Conference record-tying four baseball teams (Louisiana-Lafayette, Troy, South Alabama and Florida Atlantic) were selected to an NCAA Regional in 2013, marking the third time this has occurred and first since 2002. 2013 saw one of the best seasons on record for baseball as four of the league’s ten teams posted 40 or more wins for the first time since the 1990 season. Those outstanding win totals helped the SBC rank fifth in the country in RPI behind only the ACC, SEC, Pac-12 and Big 12. In total, Sun Belt baseball teams went 163-102 during the 2013 season in non-conference action with 13 wins over topranked opponents in 2013, including NCAA Tournament No. 1 overall seed, North Carolina. For the first time in Sun Belt Conference softball history, three teams earned bids to the NCAA Division I Softball Championship including Louisiana-Lafayette, South Alabama and WKU.
In 1979 the Sun Belt Conference became known as a leader in college sports broadcasting by being the first conference to sign a long-term contract with ESPN. Sun Belt Conference events can be seen regularly on the ESPN family of networks today. 4
ABOUT THE SUN BELT The Ragin’ Cajuns got out of a basesloaded threat in the seventh inning to win the NCAA Regional Championship over the host institution and ninth-seeded LSU, 1-0. South Alabama won its second consecutive SBC Championship title and hosted an NCAA Regional in just its seventh-year as a program. WKU earned its first-ever SBC Softball Championship by winning the 2013 regular season. The SBC finished 156-123 against non-conference opponents with nine wins over the USA Today/NFCA Division I Top-25. On the volleyball court, WKU earned its first NCAA Tournament win in school history, defeating Loyola Marymount 3-0 in the first round. It was the team’s seventh NCAA Tournament appearance, a SBC best. The Lady Toppers concluded their 2012 season with a 33-4 record and 15-0 in league play. The 33 wins were tied for the most in school history. The 2012 squad also posted the longest winning streak in school history at 25-straight wins,
as it went 75-5 in sets during the streak. WKU dropped only one set in conference play. In total the SBC posted an 86-82 nonconference record including wins over No. 10 Dayton and No. 22 Michigan. For the third consecutive year, the Sun Belt Conference had three student athletes represent the league at the NCAA Cross Country Championships. Joseph Chebet of WKU, who earned SBC Most Outstanding Performer, was also named an All-American after finishing 35th in the 10k race at the NCAA Championship. On the women’s side, SBC Most Outstanding Performer Katharine Showalter of Georgia State and Kristina Aubert of Arkansas State advanced to the NCAA Championship. Sun Belt Conference men’s golf saw two teams selected to play in the NCAA Championship and a total of three individuals make the field. Georgia State men’s tennis seniors Lucas Santa Ana and Victor Valente rallied to a 6-4, 7-6 (6) win against the No. 9-ranked doubles pair of junior Tom Jomby and

She then took 11th in the 200 meters with a time of 23.53. Mokone finished in 14th in the 800 meters after earning All-American Second-Team honors. At the 2013 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championship 11 Sun Belt student-athletes were named All-Americans. Among the highlights, ASU’s Nelvis competed in the finals of the 100-meter hurdles. Sun Belt student-athletes have a history of performing well in the class room as well. With sights set on raised benchmarks, 96.2% of teams that will make up the 2013-14 Sun Belt Conference are performing above the future Academic Progress Rate (APR) standard of 930 as the NCAA released its latest figures in June.
Beginning with 2012-13 NCAA Championships, teams must earn a minimum 900 four-year APR or a 930 average over the most recent two years to be eligible to participate. For 2014-15 championships, teams must earn a 930 four-year average APR or a 940 average over the most recent two years to participate in championships. In 2015-16 and beyond, teams must earn a fouryear APR of 930 to compete in championships. 153 of 159 Sun Belt teams are currently performing above the 930 benchmark. Each year, the NCAA tracks the classroom performance of student-athletes on every Division I team through the annual scorecard of academic achievement, known as APR. The rate measures eligibility, graduation and retention each semester or quarter and provides a clear picture of the academic performance in each sport. The most recent APRs are multi-year rates based on scores from the 2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11 and 20112012 academic years. While the accomplishments of the Sun Belt’s studentathletes and coaches deserve great praise, so to do the league’s administrators who have helped set the tone for the future of the conference. “We We have never been as strong as we are now academically and financially and I believe we are getting stronger all the time

ABOUT THE SUN BELT
Future Sun Belt member Appalachian State has one of the most passionate fanbases in college football. The Mountaineers will join the conference as a fulltime member on July 1, 2014 along with Georgia Southern. Idaho and New Mexico State will also join at that time as football only members. athletically,” outgoing Sun Belt Conference President and Troy University Chancellor Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr. said recently. “I truly believe that the best is yet to come.” A busy day in the Sun Belt Conference this past March culminated with the additions of Appalachian State and Georgia Southern as all-sports members and Idaho and New Mexico State as football playing members. All four announcements took place on March 27. Both Appalachian State and Georgia Southern bring with them highly successfully football programs and each team will begin the process of transitioning to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) immediately. The 2014 Sun Belt football season will mark the debut of both in the league schedule and standings. Additionally, both the Mountaineers and Eagles will be able to compete for the league championship in football for the 2014 season. Both teams will first be eligible to compete in a spot for a postseason bowl game come the 2015 season. Idaho and New Mexico State are familiar partners of the Sun Belt Conference, having been football members from the league’s inaugural year of football in 2001 through the 2004 season. Both members played an integral part of forming the Sun Belt Conference for football and now add strength to the league. Both teams will be immediately eligible to compete for the Sun Belt football championship and also for a spot in postseason bowl games. With new members and a new mindset also comes a new logo and mantra. The conference unveiled its new logo and brand after a nearly yearlong examination of the impact, sustainability and
core values associated with the Sun Belt Conference. “Together We Rise” is the new mantra for the conference and it is the foundation and essence of the contemporary logo that the league will now be identified with. Understanding market place competition and the need to standout from its competition, the Sun Belt Conference began examining and defining its brand identity and the need for a complimentary logo to embody that brand. “The unveiling of our new logo comes after months of review of how we wanted to express the ‘new’ Sun Belt Conference,” said Sun Belt Conference Commissioner Karl Benson. “It is a very exciting chance for us to display the opportunity and optimism that exists in the Sun Belt Conference as we move forward.” The league office and its member institutions worked with SME, Inc. for the project. SME is a renowned strategic brand development firm which was responsible for the rebranding of the Pac-12 Conference and Big Sky Conference among other prominent collegiate and professional sports properties. The overarching goal of the process was to create a bold and fresh new identity built upon a foundation of unity that corresponds to the Sun Belt Conference’s future success and also honors the foundation built over the past 37 years. The Sun Belt Conference will contest the 2013 football season with eight members – Arkansas State, Georgia State, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana-Monroe, South Alabama, Texas State, Troy and Western Kentucky University. UALR and UT Arlington compete as non-football members. 7

TIE-BREAKING PROCEDURES The seeds for the Championship shall be determined based on each team’s regularseason conference finish. In the event of a tie for a particular seed, the seed will be determined as follows: Two Teams 1. Highest win-loss percentage of head-to-head competition during the regular season. 2. Each teams’ win-loss percentage vs. the team occupying the highest position in the final regular-season standings, and then continuing down through the standings until one teams gains an advantage. 3. When arriving at another group of tied teams while comparing records, use each team’s record against the collective tied teams as a group (prior to that group’s own tie-breaking procedure), rather than the performance against individual tied teams. 4. If the records are the same against all teams, then the seeded position would be determined by a toss of the coin by the Sun Belt Conference Commissioner. Three or More Teams 1. Highest win-loss percentage of the tied teams against each other is first considered. 2. Each teams’ win-loss percentage vs. the team occupying the highest position in the final regular-season standings, and then continuing down through the standings until one teams gains an advantage. 3. When arriving at another group of tied teams while comparing records, use each team’s record against the collective tied teams as a group (prior to that group’s own tie-breaking procedure), rather than the performance against individual tied teams. 4. If there is still a tie, the seeded position of the teams will be determined by a draw conducted by the Sun Belt Conference Commissioner. 5. For all ties involving three or more teams, once the tie is broken and the highest-seeded team is determined, the remaining tied teams will revert back to the beginning of the applicable tiebreaker.

In ten years as head coach at UALR, Steve Shields has led the Trojans to six championships and one NCAA Tournament appearance, all while becoming the winningest coach in school history. Entering his 11th year as head coach, Shields is coming off a 2012-13 season in which he guided one of the least-experienced teams in the nation to 11 conference victories and tied the Jack Stephens Center record for most home wins in a single season (13). With just one senior and two juniors on the roster, nine of UALR’s top 11 players (in terms of minutes played) were freshmen and sophomores. Despite their youth, the Trojans managed to go 13-3 on the season at home, tying the 2007-08 Trojans for the most home victories in a single season since the unveiling of the Jack Stephens Center in 2005. Junior Will Neighbour earned All-Sun Belt Honor (Third Team) for the second-straight season, becoming the tenth all-conference selection in Shields’ tenure as head coach.
Trojans Players to Watch Will Neighbour - Sr., F, 6-10 Will Neighbour enters his senior season at UALR with the chance to become the first player in program history to be a three-time all-conference honoree. After collecting Second Team All-Sun Belt honors as a sophomore in 2011-12, Neighbour was named Third Team All-Sun Belt in 2012-13. As a junior, he led UALR in scoring (10.7 ppg) and rebounding (7.0 rpg) while blocking 32 shots and totaling 39 steals. The Grayshott, England-native ranked fifth in the Sun Belt in rebounding and 12th in the league in field goal percentage (44.2 percent). He racked up five double-doubles last season and led the team in rebounding 22 times, including 16 of the season’s final 19 games. Neighbour was named the Sun Belt Player of the Week on Jan. 28 after averaging 17.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 1.0 block on 64.7 percent shooting in the Trojans’ wins over Florida Atlantic and North Texas.

Leroy Isler became one of UALR’s most consistent and effective players in his first season with the team, averaging 7.4 points and 3.3 rebounds while leading the team and ranking 12th in the Sun Belt with 1.3 steals per game. He started 28 of 32 games as a junior, thanks in large part to his emergence as the Trojans’ best wing defender. UALR was at its best when Isler played well, sporting a 7-4 record when the Brooklyn, N.Y.-native reached double figures in scoring. The Trojans were 5-2 when Isler grabbed 5-plus rebounds and 7-3 when he totaled two-plus steals. Isler ended the season strong, scoring 10-plus points in each of the Trojans’ final four games, including 13 points on 5-of-9 shooting in UALR’s win over Arkansas State in the regular season finale. He scored a season-high 15 points on 4-of-8 shooting in UALR’s 69-56 win over SMU (Nov. 24) in the Hoops for Hope Classic in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

Georgia State head coach Ron Hunter begins his third year at the helm of the Panthers, leading GSU to 37 victories in his first two seasons. The 2012-13 season saw him guide nine newcomers and just one senior to 15 wins as he prepared to lead the squad into the Sun Belt this year.
Panthers Players to Watch R.J. Hunter - So., G, 6-5 Leading the team on the court is Freshman All-American R.J. Hunter, Ron’s lone son. As a freshman, Hunter was one of just three freshmen in the country to average at least 17.0 points and 5.0 rebounds per game, the others being drafted among the top 15 in the NBA Draft.
Devonta White - Sr., G, 5-11 Hunter’s quarterback is point guard Devonta White. With his final basket of the 2012-13 season, he scored his 1,000th career point, becoming just the 17th Panther to accomplish the feat. He needs 516 points in his senior season to set the school scoring record.

It was the most wins by ULL since 2002-03.
Ragin’ Cajuns Players to Watch Shawn Long - So., F, 6-9 Shawn Long is one of the players watch in the Sun Belt this year, possessing the scoring, rebounding and defensive skills to impact games in a number of ways. After a break out season in 2012-13, he will receive greater defensive attention from opponents, requiring him to continue working hard to develop his game to stay ahead of the defenses that he will see. He should once again see the lion’s share of minutes inside but needs to continue to mature and develop into a leader for the Cajuns on the court. He plays well with his back to the basket while possessing the shooting range to bring his game to the perimeter as well.

Elfrid Payton has developed into one of the most versatile players in the country. The catalyst for the Cajuns as the starting point guard, he is responsible getting the rest of the players involved offensively. His competitiveness and drive serve as a positive example for the young Cajuns to follow. He is adept at getting to the basket off the dribble while his improved shooting range have made him an even tougher player to defend. Started all nine games for Team USA at the FIBA U19 World Championship, helping team to the gold medal. Averaged 6.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 2.3 steals, shooting .575 from the field (23-40) and .900 from the line (9-10) with Team USA. In 2012-13 he was first team NABC All-District, first team All-Sun Belt and second team All-Louisiana by the LSWA.

Head Coach Keith Richard Keith Richard returned to his alma mater to become ULM’s seventh men’s basketball head coach on April 22, 2010. Now in his fourth season, Richard seeks to restore the rich tradition of the program -- something he knows very well. Richard became the second ULM men’s basketball coach - joining Mike Vining - to have also been a student-athlete and an assistant coach for the program. He was with the Warhawks in both capacities for six of the program’s seven NCAA Tournament appearances in the 1980s and early 1990s. Richard has compiled 164 victories in his 12 seasons as a head coach at ULM and Louisiana Tech. More importantly, Richard completely rebuilt the program academically in his first three seasons. The team’s Academic Progress Rate (APR) has increased dramatically in each of Richard’s three seasons. The NCAA has lifted many of the sanctions against the program due to its outstanding improvement.

Head Coach Matthew Graves
Dec. 29 * Arkansas State ..................................................... L, 54-63
After spending the last 10 seasons as an assistant on the staff at Butler, where his efforts helped the Bulldogs advance to back-to-back NCAA Tournament championship games while appearing in the event in six of the last seven years, Matthew Graves enters his first season as head men’s basketball coach at the University of South Alabama. During his tenure at Butler, Graves has helped the program to an overall record of 244-98 (71.3%), a berth in national postseason tournaments each of the last eight seasons and eight straight years with 20-plus victories. Following the 2009-10 campaign that saw the Bulldogs finish 33-5 after falling to Duke 61-59 in the national title contest, he was promoted to associate head coach; in his first year in that role, Butler returned to the NCAA Tournament championship game after defeating Pittsburgh, Florida and Wisconsin — the first, second and fourth seeds — in the Southeast Region while going on to post a 28-10 record.
Jaguars Players to Watch Augustine Rubit - Sr., F, 6-7 Augustine Rubit enters his senior season poised to become one of the greatest players in South Alabama and Sun Belt Conference history. Already the first player to lead the league in rebounding three straight years, the 2012-13 SBC Player of the Year needs 120 boards to become the conference’s all-time leader and could become the sixth Sun Belt player to record 2,000 points in a career. Rubit finished second in the Sun Belt in scoring (19.4) and doubledoubles (16) last season and paced all players with 10.5 boards per contest, which also ranked 10th in Division I. He was one of two players in the nation to rank in the top 25 in both scoring and rebounding. Rubit was prolific in getting to the charity stripe last season, setting a new school mark with 198 free throws made and ranking second in the NCAA in free throws made (6.8) and free throws attempted (8.3) per game.

March 9 (2) vs. No. 6 WKU .................................................... L, 59-62
While the numbers from his freshman and sophomore seasons remained consistent, Mychal Ammons managed to improve in several ways. Ammons averaged 10.8 points (21st in SBC) and 6.3 rebounds (12th) per game—both second best on the team—and doubled his 3-point output from the season before (28) while converting 39.4 percent from behind the arc, a jump from his 31.8 conversion rate in 2011-12. Ammons’ shooting percentage from the floor jumped from 40.7 percent his freshman campaign to 44.6 percent—14th-best in the SBC—last year. Ammons tallied four double-doubles last season, with two coming against league competition and another in the Jaguars’ season-opening win over No. 25/24 Florida State. He scored a season-best 21 points at Florida International, setting new career highs with five 3-pointers (in seven attempts) and five blocks.

Head Coach Scott Cross Scott Cross has presided over the most successful era in Maverick Basketball since taking over the program in in 2006. Cross has compiled a record of 122-96 over seven seasons. Of the top five seasons in UT Arlington history, Cross has coached three of those teams, including the top two. The Mavericks have gone to the postseason three times under his watch, including backto-back trips in 2011-12 and 2012-13. That marked the first consecutive postseasons in program history. Over that two-year span, only two programs of Texas’ 21 Division I programs own more wins than the Mavericks’ 43. UT Arlington had only one postseason trip in the 46 years prior to Cross’ arrival. He’s the only men’s basketball coach in school history with a winning record.
Mavericks Players to Watch Brandon Edwards - Sr., F, 6-6 Brandon Edwards enters his senior year as the Mavericks’ leading returning scorer and rebounder. Edwards started 26 of the team’s 33 games in 2012-13 and averaged 7.3 points per game. He was fifth in the Western Athletic Conference in rebounds with 8.2 per game and his 58.5 shooting percentage was third overall in the conference. Edwards appeared in 28 games in 2010-11 and all 32 contests of 2011-12. He led UTA as a freshman with 5.4 rebounds per game, while shooting 55.1 percent from the floor. In 2011-12, Edwards averaged 4.3 points and 4.4 rebounds per game and had four double-figure scoring games to go along with a pair of double-digit rebounding games.

Prior to Troy, Cunningham spent last season at Western Kentucky and the previous 12 years at Mississippi State, making 11 postseason appearances in 13 years. Before joining the Bulldogs in 2000, Cunningham spent five seasons as an assistant under legendary head coach Charles “Lefty” Driesell at James Madison and Georgia State, helping transform the Panthers into one of the winningest basketball programs in the Atlantic Sun Conference. Cunningham has been a head coach once before, leading Sue Bennett College from 1992-1995.

A constant threat to get to the basket, Myers scored in double-figures in 13 games, topping 20 points twice. His best game of last season came at Arkansas State, when he scored 21 points, grabbed seven boards and added two assists and a steal.

It followed the university’s first campaign, Investing in the Spirit, which had a goal of $75 million but raised more than $100 million. Besides the main campus at College Heights, WKU operates a satellite campus in Bowling Green and regional campuses in Glasgow, Elizabethtown/Fort Knox and in Owensboro. Notable Alumni: E.A. Diddle, Hall of Fame Basketball Coach; Gen. Russell Dougherty, retired commander of the Strategic Air Command; Julian Goodman, former president of NBC; Donald Kendall, former chairman of Pepsico; Lt.

After back-to-back Sun Belt Conference Tournament championships and NCAA Tournament appearances in his first two seasons at the helm of the WKU men’s basketball program, Ray Harper enters his third season as Hilltopper head coach in 2013-14. Under Harper, the Hilltoppers are 8-0 in Sun Belt Conference Tournament action, resulting in two championships and automatic berths to the NCAA Tournament, and WKU is 14-3 in games played on or after February 21. Seeded sixth in the 2013 Sun Belt Conference Tournament in Hot Springs, Ark., WKU won four games in four days for the second-straight season to win the tournament championship, becoming the first team in NCAA history to achieve the feat in back-to-back seasons. From there, the Hilltoppers advanced to the NCAA Tournament, where they put a scare into top-seeded Kansas before dropping a hard-fought, seven-point decision in Kansas City, Mo. WKU finished the 2012-13 season with a 20-16 record, giving the program its 41st 20-win season.
Hilltoppers Players to Watch George Fant - Jr., F, 6-6 A member of the All-Sun Belt Conference Third Team a season ago, George Fant returns to WKU for his junior season in 2013-14.

His rebound total was good for eighth in the conference, and he was named to the All-Sun Belt Conference Tournament Team after averaging 13.0 points and 7.5 rebounds per game in four games in Hot Springs, Ark. Fant scored in double-figures in 26 of 35 games played, including 10 of the final 11 games of the season as WKU won the Sun Belt Conference Tournament and advanced to the NCAA Tournament.
