Sun Belt Conference Commissioner Karl Benson Since being named the fifth commissioner of the Sun Belt Conference on February 16, 2012, Benson has helped reinvigorate the Sun Belt with his optimism, energy and enthusiasm. Immediately after his hiring, Benson set out to change the attitude and perception of the Sun Belt – going as far as re-imagining the brand, membership, and student-athlete experience of the league that had just entered its second decade of membership in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). His vigor and forward thinking have often been called upon during his tenure – perhaps best exemplified when he hit the ground running in the spring of 2012. Benson quickly set the tone for the future of the Sun Belt Conference by adding Georgia State, UT Arlington and Texas State to the league after only being in his post for several weeks. In May of 2012, Benson had begun to further shape the Sun Belt Conference by promoting the league’s rebranding efforts. Sure enough only a year later, the Sun Belt had unveiled a new logo and new mantra - “Together We Rise” - that is in-line with the optimistic attitude that Benson has become so well-known for. Further solidifying the place of the Sun Belt Conference, Benson helped lead the league to 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 throughout the course of the day on March 27, 2013. Benson’s foresight was called upon once again when the conference completed its 12-team alignment with the addition of Coastal Carolina to the league. CCU made a splash as it entered the Sun Belt as the Chanticleers baseball team won the 2016 College World Series. In addition to strengthening the league through membership additions and rebranding efforts, Benson has been able to secure new homes for Sun Belt teams in the football postseason. As part of the College Football Playoff (CFP), the Sun Belt continues to find itself among the 10 premier college football conferences and the system is guaranteed universal access based on performance – there are no automatic qualifiers for the playoff system. Additionally, the CFP provides a spot among the premier bowl games of college football to the highest-ranked champion from the “Group of Five” conferences: the Sun Belt Conference, American Athletic Conference, Mountain West Conference, Mid-American Conference and Conference USA. The CFP has provided much excitement as of late, but bowl games have long been a tradition in college football and the Sun Belt has established its own bowl tradition. The league has secured ties to no fewer than five bowl games, having added three bowl games since Benson became Commissioner. In addition to the potential of the College Football Playoff, the league has guaranteed berths in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl – an honor it has held from its very first football season -- the Dollar General Bowl in Mobile, Ala., the Raycom Media Camellia Bowl in Montgomery, Ala., the AutoNation Cure Bowl in Orlando, and the NOVA Home Loans Arizona Bowl in Tucson, Ariz. No football conference in NCAA history has developed that quantity of bowl partners in its first 16 years of existence. Postseason opportunities will also expand further as Benson led a push for the Sun Belt Conference to hold its first ever football championship game as the league’s presidents and chancellors, as well as athletic directors, voted unanimously to play the game beginning in 2018. Football is far from the only area where Benson has been a driving

force for the success of the Sun Belt, however. Upon his hiring, he immediately secured office space for the conference headquarters in the world-famous Mercedes-Benz Superdome in downtown New Orleans. Adding to the “Big Easy” flavor of the conference, he also brought the conference’s men’s and women’s basketball championships to New Orleans – and the coinciding tournaments will continue to be played in the hometown of the Sun Belt through 2019. Back-to-back first round NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament wins in 2014 and 2015 further pushed the Sun Belt brand to the mainstream, as has the conference’s success in the sports of softball and baseball. The Sun Belt continues to be on the cutting-edge in terms of television and digital streaming and sports officiating. The conference’s partnership with ESPN in the last several years has resulted in a tenfold increase in the availability of Sun Belt events available to a national audience. And by merging the Sun Belt’s football and men’s basketball officiating under the umbrella of the Southeastern Conference, the Sun Belt has been able to incorporate the latest in video and technology to ensure that the rights calls are being made and evaluations are always taking place. Benson came to the Sun Belt after serving as the commissioner of the Western Athletic Conference since 1994. During his time at the WAC, Benson developed numerous multi-year agreements with postseason football games, including the Holiday Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Copper Bowl, Las Vegas Bowl, Silicon Valley Football Classic, GMAC Bowl, New Mexico Bowl, the Humanitarian Bowl, Sheraton Hawaii Bowl, Poinsettia Bowl and Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl. Under Benson’s leadership, the WAC achieved noted success by sending multiple teams to Bowl Championship Series (BCS) games as well as having sent a total of 38 teams to bowl games since 2001. Benson served on the NCAA Management Council from 1999-2002 and a five-year term on the NCAA Men’s Basketball Committee from 2002-06. Prior to his time at the WAC, Benson served as the commissioner of the Mid-American Conference for four years. There, he implemented several innovative projects and was instrumental in the formation of the Las Vegas Bowl. Prior to taking the reins of the MAC, Benson served on the NCAA staff for more than four years where he was the director of NCAA championships when selected as MAC commissioner. Benson joined the NCAA staff in January 1986, as a compliance representative and was appointed assistant director of championships in June 1987. He was promoted to director of championships in 1988. In that position, Benson actively supervised eight assistant directors in their administration of 68 NCAA championships. A native of the state of Washington, Benson graduated from high school in Pullman in 1970, attended Spokane Falls Community College and then received a bachelor of science degree in physical education from Boise State University in 1975. He has also completed course work toward his master’s degree in athletics administration at the University of Utah. Benson played baseball at both Spokane Falls Community College and Boise State University before serving as the baseball coach at Fort Steilacoom Community College in Tacoma, Wash., for eight years and as the director of athletics at Fort Steilacoom from 1979-84. From 1984-86, he was an assistant baseball coach and an administrative assistant in the athletics department at Utah. He received the Distinguished Alumni Award from Boise State in April of 2006. Benson is also a member of the Spokane Falls and Fort Steilacoom Halls of Fame. Benson was born on December 1, 1951 and has been married to Sarah Glaza since October, 2016. His daughter Jessica, 25, is a 2014 graduate of the University of Southern California with a degree in Broadcast Journalism. She is currently a Sports Anchor and Reporter for WATN-TV - an ABC affiliate in Memphis.

The Arkansas State Experience It is well-known that collegiate athletics departments across the country place a common emphasis on graduation, but Arkansas State has taken it a step further by fulfilling a bold promise of 100 percent job placement for all its graduating student-athletes.

A-State continues to reach that goal through its newly-developed Red Wolves Leadership Academy, which strengthened with a new study abroad component added to foster global awareness which is often cited by employers as a positive attribute they seek.

Arkansas State student-athletes took part in the first study abroad program offered by any university and their athletics department in the nation in the summer of 2015. The program goes hand-in-hand with the Red Wolves Leadership Academy, designed with the sole purpose to obtain 100 percent job placement for all student-athletes upon graduation.

The Charles Luter Family Academic Success Center at Arkansas State University, located in the Performance Enhancement Complex, is yet another resource that Red Wolf Student-Athletes have for their studies and advancement. The center serves as a resource to assist student-athletes in various aspects of their academic, athletic and personal lives. The center has a very active tutoring program with the goal of providing each student-athlete with the best possible assistance available. The tutorial program is designed to act as a supplement to the class itself and as a support to student-athletes. A total of five academic advisors are also available to student-athletes in order to monitor academic progress. Three advisors are assigned to football and two are assigned to the other 11 sponsored sports.

The Coastal Carolina Experience Coastal Carolina University is a comprehensive, public liberal arts institution in Conway, South Carolina. The University offers 73 major fields of study toward the baccalaureate degree, 18 master’s degree programs, two educational specialist degrees and a Ph.D. program in coastal and marine systems science across five academic colleges. A diverse population of more than 10,400 students from across the country and around the world engages with a world-class faculty, and they all enjoy an inspiring cultural calendar and a tradition of community interaction fueled by more than 160 student clubs, organizations and honor societies. Students learn, study and interact in high-quality facilities, including the HTC Student Recreation and Convocation Center, the Bryan Information Commons, and the Lib Jackson Student Union. The 19 Coastal Carolina athletic teams compete in Division I of the NCAA as members of the Sun Belt Conference. The University’s mascot is the Chanticleer, a proud, fierce and quick-thinking rooster derived from Geoffrey Chaucer’s “Canterbury Tales.” The football, softball and baseball teams all compete in the new TD Sports Complex, which houses the award-winning Springs Brooks Baseball Stadium. The University comprises 115 main buildings on 633 acres, including the Coastal Science Center and the Burroughs & Chapin Center for Marine and Wetland Studies on the East Campus, and the General James Hackler Golf Course, a public 18-hole golf facility adjacent to campus. The University also offers courses and events at several satellite locations along the Carolina coast. A 1,105-acre tract, including a portion of Waties Island, provides a natural laboratory for extensive study in marine science and wetlands biology on an Atlantic coast barrier island. Coastal Carolina University is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award the baccalaureate, master’s and doctoral degrees.

The Georgia Southern Experience The academic component of Georgia Southern’s Student-Athlete Services employs 18 tutors, five mentors and six dual role mentors/tutors. After moving to Cone Hall in 2011, the new space provides 17 study rooms to student-athletes along with 36 computers for use.

Eagles in Transition is a student-athlete specific career counseling opportunity that helps studentathletes tailor their resumes, network with alumni and businesspeople in the area, and complete mock interviews. The program began in the 2014-15 academic year. Career Month hosts workshops throughout one month to stress students’ futures and careers beyond college. Eagle Expo is a job fair available to all students to meet with potential employers. Academic Services also refers student-athletes to Career Services to help them with career aspirations and networking.

A nationally recognized program, the Georgia Southern University Concussion Research platform is dedicated to the scientific understanding of sports-related concussion and their resulting consequences. The program’s primary line of research is related to identifying and understanding the lingering deficits which appear to persist well past recovery on standard clinical testing. Recently, with the inclusion of the Helmet Impact Telemetry System, the research program has been expanded to further understanding the relationship between helmet impacts and the resultant impairments in postural control.

The Eagles Men’s Golf team competed in an international tournament in October 2014 in St. Andrews, Scotland against St. Andrews University. The match was reported to be the first collegiate golf match held on the Old Course in St. Andrews.

The Idaho Experience The Vandal Academic Support Services office is dedicated to guiding student-athletes toward graduation, through the collaboration of cross campus resources to monitor and support student-athlete academic progress and NCAA eligibility. To fulfill this mission, they focus on nurturing study and social skills, encouraging initiative, self-motivation, and accountability. Additionally, the office strives to develop positive meaningful relationships within the Vandal community and beyond, creating well-rounded, employable graduates.

The University of Idaho was recognized as the 2013-14 Excellence in Management Cup champion by the Laboratory for the Study of Intercollegiate Athletics at Texas A&M University. The award, given annually since 2008-09, honors the athletic department that best demonstrates effective spending in correlation with championships earned. Information is drawn from the NCAA Championships database and the Equity in Athletics Data Analysis. Institutions are ranked on how much they spend per championship. The University of Idaho has finished in the top 15 for three consecutive years.

Since 2005, the University of Idaho has made $40 million dollar upgrades in facilities, including total renovation of its training room and construction of a new academic lab.

Student-athletes take a class at the beginning of their eligbility where strategies are developed for setting academic, athletic and career goals, and achieving academic success. This includes study strategies, orientation to UI and life as a student-athlete while coping with NCAA and conference eligibility requirements. This course provides the basic foundation and building blocks for the NCAA Champs/Life Skills Program.

The Louisiana Experience The Student-Athlete Academic Success Center at Louisiana is committed to providing student-athletes with positive learning experiences through several academic support programs. The newly renovated space provides student-athletes and mentors a variety of spaces including: a study hall lounge, two computer labs, twelve small scale tutor rooms, two medium scale tutor rooms, and a classroom that meets the everyday academic needs of student athletes.

The center provides a free tutoring service for all student-athletes to assist them in achieving success in the classroom. Tutorial services are available each semester in most courses, particularly math, science, and English. The university employs 21 tutors, all upper-class students who have excelled in the subject area in which they are tutoring.

Beyond tutoring, the Academic Coaching Program offers intensive, one-on-one academic progress tracking and guidance to academically at-risk student-athletes, and to those who may have difficulties with time management or study skills. Through daily interaction with an Academic Coach, studentathletes receive assistance in setting objectives and goals to accomplish their coursework, while building the necessary time-management and organizational skills to empower academic success.

The Cox Communications Athletic Center is home to the administrative staff and the football coaches. Adjacent to the Cox Communications Athletic Center is the 41,426-seat Cajun Field which is home to the Ragin’ Cajuns football team. In the spring of 2008, Cajun Field received a new synthetic surface which made it one of the finest in the South.

The ULM Experience As part of the ULM Athletics Academic Improvement Plan, the athletic department recently added new staff, increased tutoring opportunities, improved the administrative technology and expanded the supervised study program. Continuing its commitment to academic excellence, ULM opened the doors to the Clarke M. Williams Student Success Center for the 2008-09 school year. The center is an academic-orientented building containing a computer lab, individual and group study rooms and counseling areas/ ULM recently honored the first 66-person class in the “Maroon and Gold Society”, which is an honors program for ULM student-athletes based on their academic success. Career counseling and internship opportunities are available to student-athletes and all students through the ULM Office of Career Connections. Career Connections hosts career fairs, conducts individual sessions and offers workshops on various related topics. The mission of the ULM Student Success Center (SSC) is to encourage and assist students in the exploration of their interests, the pursuit of their goals, and the development of their intellectual knowledge and skills as they strive to reach their full potential. ULM also has four athletic academic counselor positions including one coordinator of academic counseling. There are also many academic advisers who serve the entire student population including student-athletes. Athletic academic counselors do not advise for coursework; they “pre-advise.” The athletic academic counselors also perform several functions specific to student-athletes, including individual academic counseling, working with the coaching staffs of assigned teams, tracking continuing eligibility and completing Prospective Student Athlete evaluation.

Dr. Renay Scott SWA

The New Mexico State Experience Since the 2005-06 academic year, the New Mexico State University Athletics Department has been following a game plan not only to thrive on the field of competition but to help its student-athletes succeed in the class room. The Academic Support Programs & Services Center (ASPSC) offers a full range of support and referral services to assist student-athletes in their holistic growth and development. The goal of the program is to create an equitable, diverse environment that supports student-athlete excellence in academics and athletics while also engaging with the university community in achieving and celebrating the Aggies’ success. The ASPSC employs two full-time Academic Coordinators, Life Skills Coordinator, Lead Student Development Specialist, 10 Student Development Specialists, and three work study students who are all dedicated to helping student-athletes develop the skills necessary to become independent and successful learners. The ASPSC currently serves 475 student-athletes, with an average of 120 on a daily basis. The academic center is open 72 hours a week for student-athletes to engage in their educational pursuit through the programs and services. ASPC also instituted the A+ Aggie Program, with priority given to student-athletes who have tested into developmental courses, have a documented learning disability or who have been identified as having a marginal academic profile based on their high school or NMSU academic portfolio. New Mexico State University’s Athletic Department has established a plan in which all student-athletes are expected to complete a 15-hour credit requirement of Community Service. With this requirement in effect, Aggie student-athletes have been involved in the community more often than in previous years. During the 2016-2017 academic year all sports combined completed over 6,000 hours of community service.

The South Alabama Experience The centerpiece of South Alabama’s student-athlete support system is the 4,500 square foot Athletics Academic Support Services of Office. The facility includes staff offices, four private tutor rooms, study tables and carrels, and a computer lab with 30 computers. The Athletics Academic Services staff assists student-athletes with planning their class schedules and deciding on a degree program that will suit their needs. Six athletic academic advisors advise studentathletes along with a faculty or staff advisor from the student-athlete’s college an additional 40 to 60 tutors from a wide variety of academic disciplines are hired throughout the academic year. Monitored Study Hall is required for all freshmen, first-year transfers, student-athletes with a cumulative GPA below a 2.50, and any student-athlete who the coaching staff and/or the sport-specific athletic counselor believe would benefit from the experience. The Athletics Academic Services staff utilizes contemporary web-based technology to proactively gather in-term progress report information from University faculty members. This allows staff to monitor a student-athlete’s academic profile throughout the semester and stay abreast of situations where a student-athlete may be struggling and/or underperforming. Academic Services teaches a freshman student-athlete class that all student-athletes must take. Topics include study skills, time management, nutrition, financial management, overall health and welfare, etc. Academic Services is in the process of creating a junior-/senior-level class that will focus on career planning. Student-athletes are encouraged to take advantage of the university’s Career Services Center. Last year Athletics Academics Services held a two-session workshop covering resume, interview techniques, and business attire.

sun Belt Conference together we rise

The Sun Belt Conference will hold its first ever football championship game as the league’s presidents and chancellors, as well as athletic directors, voted unanimously to play the game beginning in 2018. “This is a historic moment that represents yet another step forward for the Sun Belt Conference,” said Commissioner Karl Benson. “The membership of the Sun Belt has been engaged in a significant number of advancements for the betterment of the league - to an extent this is the culmination of those efforts.” “Sun Belt football student-athletes will make everlasting memories playing in the championship game during the upcoming years. This championship will be a first-class experience – and we look forward to it being a launching-pad for a team to reach the College Football Playoff’s ‘New Year’s Six’ bowl games.” Recently announced was the establishment of the 2018 eight game football schedule format with two five team divisions, as well as the criteria for determining the representatives in the Sun Belt Football Championship Game, and the determination of the host site for the game. The two football divisions established beginning with the 2018 season are: East: Appalachian State, Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Troy West: Arkansas State, Louisiana, ULM, South Alabama, Texas State The winners of each division will meet in the championship game. The game will be played at the home stadium of the divisional winner that has the best ranking in the College Football Playoff (CFP) poll.

In 2001, the Sun Belt Conference began sponsoring football and created the inaugural New Orleans bowl in December of that year. The conference now stands as one of the 10 premier college football leagues in the country. With the recent debut of the College Football Playoff, the Sun Belt is guaranteed universal access based strictly on performance. A worthy football team in the Sun Belt can be in the national championship picture, and the league is a permanent part of the “Group of Five” conferences (joining the American Athletic Conference, the Mountain West Conference, the Mid-American Conference and Conference USA) that will send its highest-rated champion to a premier January 1st bowl game. The Sun Belt Conference went from having two primary bowl partnerships to five in 2016. From 2001 to 2009 the Sun Belt Conference had only one bowl partner.

The Sun Belt Conference’s “Together We Rise” motto isn’t just hyperbole. It’s proven fact on many different levels, not the least being its place in the hierarchy of collegiate athletics. As the league celebrates four decades since its founding in 1976, the Sun Belt has positioned itself to have a voice in determining the future as college sports continues to change and evolve. ≥

This is the league that initiated basketball’s shot clock … the league that was the first to partner with a fledgling ESPN cable television entity that is now the “world leader” … the league that went against the status quo and inaugurated football to start the century, the first already-existing Division I conference to ever take that step … and the league that is on the forefront of “new media” and Internet-based advancement.

The Sun Belt is all about change – change for the better. The league’s embracing of innovations and advancements, its constant efforts to adapt in the ever-changing world of college athletics, and its continuing process of evolving to better serve its membership has been well documented since the very day the conference was founded.

But one thing hasn’t changed. Since that founding, the Sun Belt Conference has always been a league of opportunity. Athletic and academic programs who have shown progressive thinking and the desire to improve have always found a home in the Sun Belt.

Opportunity is not a word that the Sun Belt takes lightly. The conference is uniquely positioned to provide opportunities for its student-athletes. Each Sun Belt institution has dedicated funds and resources to construct or expand modern studentathlete academic centers. This past year Sun Belt member institutions awarded over $50 million in scholarship funds to over 3,000 student-athletes while also contributing over $2 million from the Student Assistance Fund (SAF).

The Sun Belt Conference’s membership consists of 12 football members – Appalachian State, Arkansas State, Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Idaho, Louisiana, ULM, New Mexico State, South Alabama, Texas State and Troy. Little Rock and UT Arlington compete in all-sports as non-football members while Idaho and New Mexico State are football only members. Coastal Carolina joined the Sun Belt Conference in all sports but football in 2016. The CCU football program will begin Sun Belt play this season.
