Duquesne (4-3 / 1-1) @ Robert Morris (2-4 / 1-1) Saturday, Oct. 24, 2015 at 6:00 p.m. Joe Walton Stadium (3,000) - Moon Township, Pa.
Radio: ESPN 970 AM (Chris Shovlin - play-by-play & Brian Cleary - color) Audio on the internet at: www.970espn.com / Live Video: www.necfrontrow.com Top Story - The Robert Morris University football team returns to action after a bye this Saturday, Oct. 24, as it continues Northeast Conference play by facing local rival Duquesne at 6:00 p.m. at Joe Walton Stadium. RMU suffered its first league setback of the season last time out as it committed too many turnovers to keep up with Sacred Heart. Duquesne was also dealt its first conference loss in its last game as it fell to preseason favorite Bryant on the road one week ago. Robert Morris scored its third touchdown on special teams in 2015 last time out, breaking the single-season program record in that category. It has scored via a blocked punt, a punt return and a kickoff return. RMU has claimed a league-leading eight weekly awards thus far and has won at least one in every week in which it has competed. There are 27 Colonials on the roster that have a hometown within 50 miles of Pittsburgh in advance of this Steel City clash. RMU will hit the road next weekend for the first time in nearly a month as it continues league play with a Halloween date at Central Connecticut State that will air on ESPN3. Quick Stat of the Evening - Robert Morris is coming off of its lone bye of the 2015 season, and if history is any indication, this should bode well for the Colonials. RMU is 16-9-1 (.635) all-time when playing after an off week, including 16-8-1 (.660) in the regular season. Last season was the first since 2007 in which RMU had a bye but did not win at least once following an off week. The Colonials are 11-4 (.733) all-time when playing at home following a bye. Robert Morris is 2-1 (.667) all-time against Duquesne following a bye with all three of those contests occurring at home. The last time these teams meet in Moon the Dukes claimed a 21-20 victory after RMU had a bye. The Colonial victories in the series when coming off a bye came in 2010 and the first year the teams ever met, 1994. Robert Morris won those contests by scores of 34-11 and 28-6, respectively. Duquesne has never played RMU when the Dukes were coming off a bye. Saturday's Opponent - This will be the 17th overall meeting between Robert Morris and Duquesne and the 13th consecutive year that the schools have met. The Dukes have won backto-back games in the series to take the all-time lead, 9-7. Two of the past three games have come down to the final minutes with the Colonials claiming a come-from-behind win in 2012 and the Dukes eking out a one-point win in 2013. Three of the past four meetings in the series at Joe Walton Stadium have been one-possession contests. For more information on the all-time series against Duquesne, including the last game recap, please see page four of today’s game notes. On This Date (Oct. 24) in Robert Morris Football History - Robert Morris has played only once previously on October 24, and it dropped a tough, one-point decision. Like this weekend, that game was also a home, league contest. It represented the Colonials’ lone NEC loss en route to a conference title in 1998. RMU scored in the game’s first minute, but Monmouth tallied three of the four remaining scores in the half to take a 20-13 lead into intermission. The Hawks tried to pull away by tacking on another touchdown midway through the third, but the Colonials rushed for two touchdowns to respond. However, RMU missed the extra point on the game’s final score and dropped a 27-26 affair. The game was quite even statistically with the Hawks holding a slim edge in total yards, 423-416. Monmouth did not commit a turnover, though, while the hosts coughed the ball up twice. Archie Wannamaker (1996-98) rushed for 107 yards and one touchdown on just 12 carries. John O’Connell (1995-98) led all players with 12 tackles.

2015 Robert Morris Football Game Notes vs. Duquesne (10/24/15) - Page 3
Head Coach John Banaszak Second Season - Eastern Michigan ’75 John Banaszak became the second head football coach in Robert Morris University history in December 2013. He served as an assistant coach and assistant head coach for the Colonials for 11 consecutive years prior to taking over the top spot. Banaszak was selected as Coach-In-Waiting in January 2012, allowing for a simple transition following the 2013 campaign. At the end of the 2013 season, he was named as the Assistant Coach of the Year at the FCS level as selected by the American Football Coaches Association. He was one of five coaches selected for dedication to their teams and communities. He was the first RMU coach, as well as the first from the NEC, to claim this honor. The 2013 season was Banaszak's sixth and final as assistant head coach for Robert Morris. Among his numerous duties with the program before becoming head coach, he was responsible for tutoring the defensive line and the special teams unit. Under Banaszak's guidance in 2013, Robert Morris led the NEC in net punting, punt return defense and punt return average. Banaszak was also a key component in instructing a RMU defense that finished second in the NEC in total defense within league play in 2013. Robert Morris finished its regular season ranked among the top 25 nationally in at least seven defensive categories including total defense. With Banaszak's assistance, RMU has led the NEC in total defense four times in the past 11 years and ranked among the top four nine times in the past 12 seasons. Banaszak was a key component to a 2010 defense that led the NEC in total defense as the Colonials claimed the NEC's inaugural berth in the FCS Playoffs. In 2006, he helped tutor an RMU defense that led I-AA in total defense, allowing an average of just 228.36 yards per game. 10 of the 13 players in school history to earn All-NEC recognition on the defensive line have come under the tutelage of Banaszak, including Nolan Nearhoof (200912), who was named the 2012 NEC Defensive Player of the Year after breaking both the school and league records for career sacks. Nearhoof would go on to earn AllAmerica honors, becoming the third Colonial defensive lineman to claim an AllAmerica nod under Banaszak in a seven-year span. As much as Banaszak's presence has been felt on the defensive side of the ball, the same can be said on special teams. He helped five distinct Colonials win an award at return specialist within the span of one decade. A graduate of Eastern Michigan, Banaszak signed as a free agent with the Pittsburgh Steelers prior to the 1975 season and was one of only three rookies to make the defending Super Bowl champion team out of training camp. Primarily a special teams player on Pittsburgh's Super Bowl X championship team, Banaszak started five games the following season and then started at both right end and inside tackle in 1977 before suffering a knee injury that forced him to the injured reserve list. Between 1978 and 1980, Banaszak started 45 regular-season games at defensive end as the Steelers won back-to-back Super Bowls. In Super Bowl XIII, Banaszak recorded six tackles, including a pair of sacks, and a fumble recovery in a 35-31 win over the Dallas Cowboys, which garnered him Defensive Player of the Game honors. The following year, Banaszak helped the Steelers to a 31-19 victory over the Rams.

Last RMU Game vs. Duquesne Game #11 Duquesne 22, Robert Morris 0 November 22, 2014 / Pittsburgh, Pa. Rooney Field (Attendance: 1,085) - Robert Morris had multiple school records rewritten but was unable to turn those performances into a victory as it fell to Duquesne, 22-0, in NEC action in each team’s season finale on a wet afternoon. Seniors Tony LaMancusa and Duane Mitchell both broke records along with the Colonial defense setting a new standard. Senior defensive back Antwan Eddie also had a rate stat record finalized Saturday. The Colonial defense racked up 15 tackles for loss against the Dukes, which marked a new single-game school record against a Division I foe. Mitchell caught seven passes for 91 yards to break his own single-season school record for receptions. LaMancusa broke RMU’s career punting yards record as he tallied three punts downed inside the 20 yard line. True freshman Ryan Richards Jr. led a strong defensive effort for the Colonials as he posted a team high and season high tying nine tackles, including seven solo hits, a season-best three tackles for loss and a quarterback hurry. Fellow true freshman Drew Allen posted the first interception of his career against Duquesne, an athletic, one-handed grab near the goal line. RMU held the Dukes to a 3-for-16 mark on third down after the Dukes came into the game leading the league in third down conversion percentage. After RMU’s starting quarterback was injured on the first play from scrimmage, a turnover by the Colonials would set the Dukes up with fantastic field position, which they took advantage of with a four-yard pass to take the lead. A trio of punts followed before Duquesne drove into the red zone. Despite having first-andgoal, the Colonial defense held and forced a field goal by the hosts. Allen intercepted Duquesne on its next drive before seven consecutive punts essentially brought the half to a close. RMU posted 70 yards on its final four drives of the half to the Dukes’ 51 on their final four possessions as the Colonials twice moved into Duquesne territory. Duquesne used a 12-yard pass to score on the first drive of the second half to add to its advantage. RMU would again move into the Dukes’ half of the field before turning the ball over on downs. The Colonial defense then forced a Duquesne punt with a three-and-out. Robert Morris ran 10 plays on its next possession, again moving to the Dukes’ side of the field, but would be forced to punt facing a fourth-and-long. Duquesne tacked on a field goal early in the fourth quarter before the game’s next two drives ended in punts. On the game’s final four possessions, two for both teams, each would advance the ball once into the others’ territory, but a turnover on downs and an interception ended those two chances.

Last Time Out - Robert Morris couldn't get out of its own way as Sacred Heart took advantage of a mistake-prone Colonial team to claim a 26-13 victory … Junior linebacker Jimmy Masson and true freshman running back Dante Satcher each found the end zone for the first time in their respective careers … Redshirt senior linebacker Jake Tkach posted a game-high and career-best 16 tackles in the setback, the first time a Colonial hit 15+ tackles in a contest since September 2013 … Redshirt senior captain Forrest Mason added eight tackles, including a career-high-tying 2.5 tackles for loss … Redshirt freshman Kyle Buss contributed six receptions for 91 yards. Dante's Peak - True freshman Dante Satcher claimed Special Teams Player of the Week honors from the NEC Oct. 12 after returning a kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown against Sacred Heart. It was the fourth kickoff return for a touchdown in program history, but it was the longest one of the quartet. It also stands as the second-longest touchdown of any type in RMU history and the longest since 1996. With his award, RMU became the first school in league history to win the special teams honor in four straight releases. Don't Be Offensive - Through six games, Robert Morris has scored five non-offensive touchdowns. It has scored twice via an interception and also from a kick return, a punt return and a blocked punt. The school record for non-offensive TD in a season is six. Interestingly, all five of its unique touchdowns this season have come in home games. Just For Kicks - RMU has done well at covering its kickoffs thus far in 2015. Junior Connor Shennan has tallied 14 touchbacks on 24 attempts, the highest percentage in the NEC. However, even when his kicks have not resulted in touchbacks, RMU is holding its opponents to just 14.3 yards per return, the best mark in the FCS. Stock Watch - Mike Stojkovic was named Northeast Conference Defensive Player of the Week for the second time this year Oct. 5. He led RMU with 11 stops in its win at Wagner and had earned his first honor after helping limit nationally ranked Youngstown State Sept. 12, as he posted 11 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss and a forced fumble against the Penguins. He has hit double digits in stops in five of six games this season and totaled 6.5 tackles for loss. Stojkovic currently leads the league in tackles per game (9.7). Rookie Records - Redshirt freshman Kyle Buss caught nine passes for 108 yards and a touchdown in just his third collegiate game Sept. 19. Buss, who also added 24 rushing yards, broke the RMU freshman single-game record for receptions with his nine grabs. Buss caught a 26-yard touchdown pass early in the second quarter in that game to find the end zone for the first time as a collegian. He leads the team with 25 catches in 2015. Sack Master - Redshirt junior Austin Trgovcich had a monster game last time out as he notched career highs in tackles (12), tackles for loss (3.5) and sacks (2.5). Trgovcich leads the league in tackles per game among defensive linemen (6.5) and is tied for the overall lead in sacks (5.0). He has posted a sack in each of the past three games. The Third Phase - Connor Shennan is the only two-time winner of the Northeast Conference Special Teams Player of the Week accolade in 2015. The junior was a perfect 3-for-3 on field goals Oct. 3 at Wagner, including connecting on the game-winner in the final minute. He is one of two NEC athletes to hit three field goals in a game in 2015 and became the fifth Colonial ever to achieve that feat. Shennan had reset his career-long with a 46-yarder the week prior while drilling two of his three kickoffs for touchbacks. Break It Up - The median completion percentage across the FCS in 2014 was 57.6%. Robert Morris has allowed only three of its past 24 opponents to reach that mark. In fact, eight times in this stretch, the Colonials have held their opponent under a 45% rate. In each of the past two seasons, RMU had a stretch where it held its opponent under a 50% completion mark in three straight games. Start Me Up - Nick Faraci enters Saturday's game with the most consecutive starting assignments of all active Colonials as he has served as the center for 39 straight games. On defense, Marcelis Branch has the most total starts among active Colonials with 26, but Andy Smigiera and Mike Stojkovic are tied for the longest active streak (17).

2015 Robert Morris Football Game Notes vs. Duquesne (10/24/15) - Page 7 For Starters - When Robert Morris took the field in its 2014 season finale at Duquesne, it sported its 11th distinct offensive starting lineup in the 11th and final game. RMU, which has sported different lineups on offense in its past 20 games overall, saw 23 distinct players start on offense in 2014 alone. Through six games in 2015, 19 Colonials have started on offense. Making the Grade - Current redshirt senior offensive lineman Nick Faraci and recently graduated wide receiver Duane Mitchell were both named Capital One Academic AllDistrict First Team last November. It was the second straight year Faraci earned this honor and the first such award for Mitchell, as they continued the trend of academic successes in the football program. These two accolades gave the Colonial program at least one Academic All-District honoree in each of the past 12 seasons, a span in which Robert Morris has taken home 23 overall selections. To put that in perspective, no other NEC school has an active streak of football Academic All-District selections longer than three years. Mitchell, a finance major, became the first RMU wide receiver to ever claim this honor. Special Special Teams - Warren Robinson was named the NEC’s Special Teams Player of the Week Sept. 21. The rookie returned three punts for 89 yards Sept. 19, including a 66-yard return for a touchdown. It marked only the fourth punt return for a TD in RMU history, but it was the first ever by a freshman. In fact, he is the only true freshman among the 123 FCS programs to return a (non-blocked) punt for a touchdown in 2015. Robinson’s 66-yard scamper was the second longest punt return in RMU history. He leads the NEC and ranks among the top 10 in the FCS in punt return average (15.6). Seventh Heaven - Robert Morris was selected to finish seventh in the annual preseason Northeast Conference coaches poll. That fact may actually bode well for the Colonials on multiple fronts. In two of the past three seasons, the team picked seventh in the league has gone on to claim the NEC's automatic bid into the FCS Playoffs. Furthermore, the only other time in the past decade that Robert Morris was placed in the seventh position in the preseason poll came in 2006. RMU finished 7-4 that season and was a game out of first place at 5-2 in the league. In fact, the Colonials led the nation in total defense that season, allowing an average of 228.4 yards per game. Hurry Up – Robert Morris has run at least 80 offensive plays in a game 14 times in program history. After doing it eight times in its first 20 seasons, RMU has run 80+ plays six times since new offensive coordinator Darrin Hicks took over in 2014. The Colonials hit that figure four times in 2014 and twice in their first six games of 2015.

They'll Be Back - One interesting way to examine the state of the Colonial roster is to look at the number of players that started the season opener who will be finished with their careers after this season. Of RMU’s 22 offensive and defensive starters from its opener, only five Colonials—two on offense, three on defense—will have used all of their NCAA eligibility when the 2015 campaign is completed.
Others Receiving Votes: New Hampshire (347), Charleston Southern (210), Southern Utah (113), South Dakota (92), Grambling State (88), Southeastern Louisiana (83), Alcorn State (55), Cal Poly (39), North Dakota (39)
Times Two - One of the mainstays that returned to the RMU defense in 2015 is redshirt senior Forrest Mason. Mason earned his second straight All-NEC honor in 2014, making him just one of five Colonials ever to claim multiple all-league honors as a defensive lineman. What made that accolade even more impressive is that the league’s coaches voted him to the team despite the fact that he was only able to appear in seven games. Mason is second in the NEC in tackles per game among defensive linemen (5.7) and is tied for the team lead with 8.0 TFL. He returned his first career INT for a TD Sept. 19.

The Nurse Will See You - RMU's starting center, redshirt senior Nick Faraci, became the fifth Colonial in school history, and the first on the offensive side of the ball, to earn a prestigious Academic All-America award this past December. However, that may not even be his most impressive feat. Faraci graduated from RMU in May with the highest grade point average in his nursing class. He subsequently passed his nursing board exams in the summer to earn his registered nurse (RN) license. Faraci, who owns a 3.94 cumulative GPA, worked in four area hospitals as part of his clinical rotations over the past few years.

No Passing Zone - The Robert Morris defense did well in keeping opposing offenses from moving the ball through the air near the end zone last year. The Colonials grabbed eight interceptions in 2014 within 20 yards of the end zone they were defending. RMU has tallied four such picks in the first six games of 2015, giving it 12 grabs inside its own 20 in its past 17 games. Seven distinct Colonials have contributed to that mark. Ramming Defenses - Sophomore Rameses Owens carried the RMU offense in its road opener at nationally ranked Youngstown State. He rushed for 152 yards and two touchdowns, the first multi-TD effort of his career. It marked the third time he surpassed 150 rushing yards in his eighth collegiate start. In his first career start, Owens rushed for 199 yards at North Dakota. In doing so, he broke the RMU freshman single-game rushing mark and was also named National Freshman of the Week by The Sports Network. He also rushed for 154 yards in his first home start against Monmouth (10/4/14). Back-to-Back - Sophomore strong safety Ryan Richards Jr. was named Northeast Conference Defensive Player of the Week in the first release of the season. It marked the second straight weekly release in which he was honored as he claimed rookie accolades to close the 2014 season. Richards grabbed a pair of interceptions in the season opener, his fourth career start, while adding six tackles and a pass breakup. Richards owns a league-leading three interceptions in 2015, and four in his career, along with 32 tackles and two pass breakups. Ground Game - Robert Morris posted a sizeable advantage in rushing yards Sept. 26 at No. 6 South Dakota State (228-125). This was due in large part to the Colonials averaging 6.0 yards per carry compared to 3.5 for the Jackrabbits. It marked the 14th time in program history, but just the fourth since 2000, in which a Colonial team averaged at least 6.0 yards per carry. That effort helped RMU rush for 200+ yards in back-to-back games for the first time since 2010. Meet Mr. Smith - Kimani Smith became the third distinct Colonial in four weeks to earn Defensive Player of the Week honors from the NEC Sept. 28. He posted eight tackles, six of which were solo, along with a tackle for loss, an interception and two pass breakups against No. 6 South Dakota State. He also helped hold SDSU to a lower point total than its produced against FBS member Kansas. Smith is third on RMU in tackles (46) and tackles for loss (7.5) and ranks among the top 10 in the NEC in both categories.

2015 Robert Morris Football Game Notes vs. Duquesne (10/24/15) - Page 9 The Founding Father - The one constant in the first two decades of Colonial football was former head coach Joe Walton. Walton, the former NFL tight end and head coach of the New York Jets, started the program from scratch, completing everything from hiring assistants to purchasing equipment. He was named NEC Coach of the Year four times in 18 seasons and guided RMU to a pair of NCAA I-AA mid-major national crowns during his time on the sidelines. Walton, currently a special assistant to the athletic director at Robert Morris, was inducted into the RMU Athletic Hall of Fame in November 2013. Get To The Chopper - A quick glance at RMU’s record when broken down proves how important it is the Colonials get off to a good start in contests. When Robert Morris is leading at halftime, the program owns an all-time record of 89-15 (.856). When trailing at the break, Robert Morris owns a mark of 15-82-1 (.158). Even going into halftime tied is beneficial, as the Colonials own an overall record of 14-9 (.609) in such games. The Magic Mark - Since the Colonials began play in 1994, there have been 77 games in which Robert Morris has scored 30 or more points. In those contests RMU boasts a record of 72-5 (.935), including a record of 43-5 (.896) in games in which the team scores between 30 and 39 points. In games in which the Colonials score 40 or more points, RMU is a perfect 29-0. RMU Football Historical Tidbits - The inaugural running back at Robert Morris, the late Tim Hall (1994-95), rushed for 2,908 yards in his two seasons as a Colonial. Hall still owns the FCS season and career records for yards per carry, with his season record of 8.7 yards per carry set in 1994 and his twoyear career record of 7.4 established in 1994 and 1995 ... Hall also ranks fourth all-time in the FCS in both rushing yards per game (153.1) and allpurpose yards per game (194.8) ... Former Colonial linebacker James Noel (2002-05) ranks sixth in the FCS record book for career tackles per game (10.7), while his career tackle total of 437 takedowns ranks 15th all-time ... Former linebacker and assistant coach Alex DiMichele (2008-10) averaged 10 tackles per game over his three years in a Robert Morris uniform, which ranks 13th all-time in the FCS record book ... Robert Morris has topped the nation in passing defense twice in the past 16 years, based on passing efficiency defense rating. The Colonials topped the charts in 1999 (with a 80.80 rating) as well as in 2006 (with a 88.70 rating). Did You Know? - Robert Morris owns the all-time FCS record for the most consecutive quarters while holding an opponent scoreless. During the 1996 season, the Colonials went 15 straight quarters without allowing a single point. In fact, the record-setting streak occurred at the beginning of the season. RMU posted three straight shutouts -- 20-0 against Mercyhurst (9/7), 38-0 against Butler (9/14) and 7-0 against Towson State (9/21) -- to open the campaign and then held Central Connecticut State (9/28) scoreless for the first three quarters before finally allowing a point for the first time all season. In all, Robert Morris went 234:04 before allowing a point in 1996. RMU went 9-2 (.818) in 1996, claiming a share of the NEC championship, and conceded just 12.9 points per game.

Robert Morris Captains Head coach John Banaszak announced after the team's final scrimmage that four Colonials will serve as captains in the 2015 season.
OFFENSE Redshirt senior Nick Faraci and senior Max Robertson are the team’s captains on offense. Faraci has started each of RMU’s past 39 games at center and was selected as an Academic All-American in 2014. Robertson started 31 games at left guard over the past three seasons, but he was shifted down a spot to left tackle prior to the 2015 season. DEFENSE Redshirt seniors Forrest Mason and Mike Stojkovic are the team’s captains on defense. Mason is a two-time AllNortheast Conference honoree and is one of just five defensive lineman in RMU history to earn multiple allleague honors. He owns 121 tackles and 13.5 sacks in his career. He became the first Colonial defensive lineman to be named NEC Defensive Player of the Week in over 15 years last October. Stojkovic, who served as a captain in the latter half of the 2014 season, was ranked among the top five in the league in tackles per game last year and totaled 82 stops. He owns 158 tackles and 18.0 tackles for loss in a Colonial uniform. The Texas native began his collegiate career at FBS institution North Texas.
Robert Morris On The Airwaves Gameday Colonial football games are heard live on ESPN Radio AM-970 Pittsburgh, the flagship station of Robert Morris University athletics. ESPN 970 and RMU reached a threeyear agreement in the summer of 2013 to broadcast football, men’s basketball and men’s hockey games. The Voice of the Colonials, Chris Shovlin, and color analyst Brian Cleary call the football action. RMU Assistant Media Relations Director Spencer Kowitz joins Shovlin as color analyst for select Colonial road games. "The John Banaszak Show" is on 30 minutes prior to kickoff. Games can also be heard on the station’s website, www.970espn. com, as well as on iHeartRadio. RMU home and league games can generally be seen live for free on NEC Front Row, the conference’s online digital network. The league has added multiple upgrades in recent years, including the ability to transmit live events in HD as well as providing the ability for the viewer to use a DVR-style, in-game real-time rewind feature. Robert Morris will also have at least four games that will air on ESPN3 in 2015: 9/12 @ Youngstown State, 9/26 @ South Dakota State, 10/10 vs. Sacred Heart and 10/31 @ Central Connecticut State. Weekly Segments Coach Banaszak sits down for a weekly chat with playby-play voice Chris Shovlin most Mondays at the All Star Sports Bar & Grill in either Robinson or Canonsburg. Their discussion is aired live on ESPN 970 from 8-9 p.m. Coach Banaszak also has a weekly segment on TribLIVE Radio that generally can be heard on Wednesday at 9:45 a.m. A Colonial student-athlete is sometimes featured on ESPN 970 during a weekday afternoon.

Robert Morris By the Numbers
Colonials in the NFL
1-
The first Northeast Conference program to claim an automatic berth in the NCAA FCS Playoffs in 2010
2-
Number of teams Robert Morris faced from the Missouri Valley Football Conference in 2015, widely regarded as the best league at the FCS level
3-
Super Bowl championships won by RMU head coach John Banaszak as a defensive lineman for the Pittsburgh Steelers
4-
Number of distinct Colonials who were named NEC Rookie of the Week in 2014, tying a league record
6 - Northeast Conference championships (1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2010) for RMU in the 20-year history of the league
8 - Number of sacks RMU registered Oct. 3 at Wagner, a singlegame school record against a Division I opponent
9 - Number of receptions Kyle Buss posted in his third collegiate contest, breaking the RMU single-game rookie record
Since Robert Morris played its first season in 1994, three former Colonials have appeared in a game in the National Football League (NFL), the most among current NEC members in this span as of August 2015. Many players have “rewritten” record books at various schools. At Robert Morris, however, Tim Hall wrote the record book. Hall rushed for 2,908 yards on 393 carries in his two seasons in a Colonial uniform and was named an All-American by the Associated Press in 1995. He was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the sixth round (183rd player overall) in the 1996 NFL Draft. In 1997, he led the Raiders in yards per carry average with 5.2 and was second in rushing yards to Napolean Kaufman. On Sept. 30, 1998, Hall was shot and killed in Kansas City at age 24. Hank Fraley, who played on the offensive line for Robert Morris from 1996-1999, carved out a niche for himself in the NFL for over a decade. Fraley was a three-time Mid-Major All-American during his years at RMU before he was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers to a free-agent contract in April 2000. Fraley was later claimed by the Eagles and started at center for Philadelphia for the entire 2001 season, helping the team to the 2002 NFC Championship game. For four straight seasons with Fraley starting at center from 2002-05, the Eagles appeared in the NFC Championship game. In 2005, Fraley became the first RMU alum to appear in the Super Bowl when he started at center against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXIX. Former RMU defensive back Robb Butler played for the San Diego Chargers during the 2004 season and was featured in special teams situations, including returning kickoffs.
10 - This is the 10th consecutive year RMU played Dayton, the only non-conference foe on its 2015 slate it has faced previously
