POKES PICKED 4TH IN POLL

• McNeese has been predicted for a 4th place finish in the Southland Conference spring preseason poll • Nicholls, the 2018 and 2019 Southland Conference champions, have been picked to to win its third straight title. • Stephen F. Austin, Central Arkansas, HBU, and Abilene Christian have opted not to play this spring. 2019 SLC Preseason Poll 1. Nicholls (7) 2. Sam Houston (6) 3. Southeastern La. 4. McNeese (1) 5.

• McNeese has played seven different running backs through five games this season due to injuries, and at Northwestern State, the Cowboys were down to their No. 4-5-6 back, losing 4 and 5 during the game. Because of that, backup quarterback Walker Wood was an emergency replacement in the backfield and ended up rushing the ball nine times for 8 yards and scored his first collegiate touchdown. • McNeese is expected to get back the services Deonta McMahon (21-61, 0 TD) and Josh Parker (27-137, 0 TD). • Parker led the Cowboys against NSU with 77 yards on 16 carries before he was injured late in the second quarter. • AJ Carter (31-156, 2 TD) could also see a return to the field.

RUNNING GAME EXPLODES VS. LAMAR

• The Cowboys rushed for a seasonhigh 345 yards on 46 carries against Lamar, an average of 7.5 yards per carry. • It’s the most rushing yards in a game since running for 342 at SFA o Sept. 30, 2017. • Of those 345 yards, one was an 80-yard TD run on McNeese’s first offensive play and another came on a 45-yard TD run by AJ Carter - two big scoring plays that have eluded McNeese’s offense for the season up to that point. • The 345 is the most rushing yards in a game since running for 342 against Stephen F. Austin in 2017.

PANDEMIC, HURRICANES, WINTER STORM NOT STANDING IN COWBOYS’ WAY

• Prior to the Feb. 13 opener at Tarleton State, McNeese’s last game of competition was back on Nov. 23, 2019 against Lamar, and due to the global pandemic and two major hurricanes - Laura and Delta - the Cowboys did not play any games during the fall of 2020. In fact, unlike every other FCS team playing this spring who had a fall offseason program, McNeese

was without any kind of weight or conditioning program and as spread out around the region due to no housing in Lake Charles as a result of the extensive hurricane damage. • After the hurricanes, McNeese was not able to return to Lake Charles as a team until mid-November 2020 and took up residence at a local hotel for the next 60-80 days. • Facilities on campus were too damaged to conduct any kind of training so the Cowboys held weight training and conditioning drills at a local high school until the team was able to return to its facility the second week of January. • Damage to McNeese State University exceeds $200 million with much of that to the athletic facilities. • Cowboy Stadium had to have its 3-year old turf replaced and was 3-feet underwather due to the rains of Hurricane Delta... the three-level press box is totaled and will have to be replaced... most of the football team and position meeting rooms were heavily damaged, forcing the Cowboys to use the Endzone Club Room on the second level of the field house as a make-shift team meeting room. • Last week, the off week, a winter storm caused water outages so the Cowboys were not able to get any practice time in.

MAKING THE GRADE

• Despite having to do studies virtually in the fall, the Cowboys posted a 3.2 semester grade point average and had 11 football student-athletes compile a 4.0 GPA. • This year’s roster has eight players who have already earned their bachelor’s degree: QB Cody Orgeron, WR Trevor Begue, DL Camron Peterson, DL Isaiah Chambers, TE Jamal Pettigrew, P Bailey Raborn, LB Kordell Williams, DB Gabe Foster. 2021 McNeese Football Gameday Program

From 2005-07, Wilson served as the running backs/assistant special teams coach at Mississippi, where he recruited prominent future NFL stars Kendrick Lewis and Mike Wallace. He also developed a first-team all-conference running back in Green-Ellis. Wilson joined the Rebels’ staff after serving one year as director of athletics for the New Orleans Public School System after spending three-and-a-half seasons as head football coach and offensive coordinator at O. Perry Walker High School. Wilson led O. Perry Walker to two District 10-4A championships and the Louisiana Class 4A State Championship game in 2002. He was honored by the NFL as the 2002 Louisiana Coach of the Year and was voted by his peers as the Louisiana Class 4A Coach of the Year. Wilson also was a finalist for the 2002 Nike National Coach of the Year. During his head coaching stint at O. Perry Walker, Wilson developed 22 players who earned Division I scholarships, including 11 in 2002 to rank as the nation’s largest high school class of D-I signees. The 2002 team defeated national-power John Curtis Christian School, 20-0, during the regular season, which snapped a 136-game district winning streak for John Curtis and marked the first time that team had failed to score in 303 consecutive games, a national record. Wilson spent three years as an assistant coach at Edna Karr High School, also in New Orleans, from 1997-2000. He served as offensive coordinator at Edna Karr during the 1999 season in which the team reached the Class 3A state finals and recorded its best statistical season on offense in the program’s history. Wilson got his start in coaching as a student assistant at his alma mater, Nicholls State University, working with the running backs while he finished his degree. While in Thibodaux, Wilson helped coach the first 1,000-yard rusher in school history and was part of the biggest turnaround in NCAA history at the time for the Colonels, who improved from 0-10 in 1995 to 8-2 in 1996. A three-year letterman at Nicholls State, Wilson earned honorable mention all-conference honors as a running back his sophomore year. Wilson attended Geneva University in Beaver Falls, Pa., his freshman season, earning conference Freshman of the Year honors as a running back and kick returner. He also earned first team all-conference honors and was an honorable mention NAIA Division II All-American. Wilson received his bachelor of arts degree in general education from Nicholls State in 1997. Wilson and his wife, Tiffany, have three children: Alaina, Sabree and Frank IV.

What They’re Saying About Coach Wilson “Frank is a great Louisiana man. He was one of the best assistant coaches in LSU history and he will do a great job for McNeese.” – Ed Orgeron, LSU head coach. “Coach Frank Wilson changed my life. He gave a young kid from New Orleans a chance to compete and learn on a higher level. He opened the doors for so many of us Louisiana athletes and I’m just happy to see him making strides and becoming all that he can be. He is a true inspiration.” – Tyrann Mathieu, former LSU defensive back and Heisman Trophy finalist and currently with the Kansas City Chiefs. “Be a pro. Coach Wilson made it a real possibility not with just the amount of work we put in, but with the culture he brought to the program. He gave us respect and responsibility and we thrived. I’m happy to see Coach Wilson help others turn dreams into reality.” – Marcus Davenport, former UTSA player and first round draft pick by the New Orleans Saints. “One of the most loving and caring coaches outside of football. The love I have for him will last a lifetime. Anyone that gets him as a coach will love him not as a coach but also as a father figure. Also he’s a God fearing man.” – Leonard Fournette, former LSU running back and current running back for the Super Bowl Champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. “Coaches and players gravitate to Frank Wilson. He was a part of my staff at Tennessee and I can tell you firsthand that he develops players as well as anyone in college football. People talk about how great of a recruiter he is, but he is just as strong of a leader.” – Lane Kiffen, Ole Miss head coach who hired Frank Wilson at Tennessee. “I had the honor to play for and be recruited by a man who was so unselfish in his work and in his life that people were drawn to his efforts and commitment, which helped them become a man foremost and then a player. I speak firsthand for how he’s stayed in contact with players even after they have left his reach. They don’t make many like him.” – Jarvis Landry, Cleveland Browns wide receiver.
