*EDITOR’S NOTE- This story orginally ran in 2012 as a part of the Class of 2012 Troy Sports Hall of Fame ceremony.* Football coaches seem to come and go with the change of the seasons in recent years; well at least everywhere but Troy University. Larry Blakeney has roamed the sidelines of the field that now bears his name for an almost unheard of 22 seasons and has led the Trojans to some unprecedented success. Already the all-time winningest coach in Troy football history, Blakeney is the second-longest tenured active coach in the country trailing just Virginia Tech’s Frank Beamer (26 years). Blakeney has amassed 169 victories to just 98 defeats in his 22 seasons with the Trojans. He has led the Trojans to eight conference championships, including a run of five straight Sun Belt titles from 2006 to 2010; a feat that has been matched or bested at the Football Bowl Subdivision level by only Alabama under Bear Bryant, Florida State under Bobby Bowden, Ohio State under Woody Hayes, USC under Pete Carroll and BYU under LaVell Edwards. Blakeney’s impact ranges far past the white lines that confine the football field. Shayne Wasden, Troy’s assistant head coach and a former player under Blakeney at Auburn, was one of those young men affected by Blakeney. “Coach Blakeney has had a positive impact on countless lives in his long, successful coaching career,” Wasden said. “While his success will be measured by many through wins and losses, Coach Blakeney’s true success should be measured by the number of boys he has helped become men. Coach Blakeney is a man of character and he tries to instill qualities in his players that will not only make them better players, but more importantly better people. “I have had the privilege to both play for and coach under Larry Blakeney. Throughout the years I have known him; I have always admired his work ethic, kindness, and his genuine love for people. Because of his loyalty, dedication and pivotal role in Troy University’s growth he is more than deserving of this honor.” A member of the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame, Blakeney guided Troy’s assent from Division II to the Football Championship Subdivision and now the Football Bowl Subdivision. When the Trojans made the jump to Football Bowl Division status in 2001, Blakeney made NCAA history becoming one of only two coaches to lead a program from NCAA Division II to the FBS. To say the Trojans have dominated the Sun Belt Conference since joining the league in 2004 would be an understatement. To go along with the record five league titles, Troy has won 45 league games, had 41 players named first team all-conference and averaged over 28.0 points per game. Blakeney has also established a substantial pipeline to the NFL

as 21 of his former players have heard their names called in the NFL Draft, while numerous others have signed free agent deals as 63 of his former players have played professionally. Blakeney has led the Trojans to 15 winning seasons, including six seasons of 10 wins or more, and he currently stands fourth among all college coaches to have manned a sideline in the state of Alabama with 169 victories. He led the Trojans to a pair of FCS Semifinal appearances and the FCS postseason seven times, including an NCAA-record four consecutive seasons after making the move from NCAA Division II in 1993. His list of firsts also includes leading the Trojans to five bowl games over a seven-year period. Blakeney and his wife Janice reside in Troy. They have three daughters; Kelley Taylor, Julie Ivory and Tiffany Rash. They have three granddaughters; Caroline, Madeline and Danielle.

titles as a member of the Trojans and helped lead Troy to four bowl appearances.

A native of nearby Eufaula, Ala., Jerrel Jernigan is one of the most prolific players in Troy football history. A seven-time All-Sun Belt Conference selection, Jernigan’s name is littered throughout the Troy record book and included in the box scores of some of the school’s most memorable football games.

As a sophomore, he broke Troy’s 40-year-old receptions record as he pulled down 77 catches despite missing the equivalent of two games to injury. His record didn’t stand for long as Jernigan broke his own mark two seasons later when he caught 84 passes en route to his third straight All-Sun Belt First Team honor as a wide receiver – he was twice named first team as an all-purpose player and twice named second team as a return specialist.

Jernigan led Eufaula High School to the Alabama Class 5A state title in 2006 as the team’s quarterback and was named first team all-state in the process. He also lettered in basketball and baseball, but the gridiron is where he excelled. Jernigan easily caught the eye of the Trojan coaching staff, especially head coach Larry Blakeney. “He was a guy that could make something happen out of nothing,” Blakeney said. “He was a versatile athlete and a top class person. There were things Jerrel could do on the football field that you couldn’t prepare for, he was just so athletic. If you threw it to him, you pretty much knew he would catch it. He was most dangerous after he got the ball, he had a knack for finding open space.” Jernigan, who moved to wide receiver at Troy, used his athleticism to accumulate 5,985 all-purpose yards over his career which spanned from 2007-10 - at the time he was one of just three Sun Belt players to ever eclipse the 5,000-yard mark. His versatility on the field was so defined and dramatic that Jernigan has 1,806 more all-purpose yards than the next closest Trojan on the list – Troy University Sports Hall of Fame member Perry Griggs. He also holds records for receiving yards (3,128), pass receptions (262) and pass receptions per game (5.24); Jernigan ranks in the top five in Sun Belt history in four categories as well. In his time in a Trojan uniform, Jernigan saw action in four different positions – quarterback, wide receiver, punt returner and kick returner. Jernigan won four Sun Belt Conference

Jernigan was named Sun Belt Conference Offensive Player of the Week during his sophomore season in 2008 after hauling in five passes for 131 yards and a score, rushing for 88 yards on 10 carries as well as throwing a touchdown pass against Florida International. Jernigan’s junior season was just as eventful as he caught 71 passes for 1,101 yards; totals that rank fifth and second heading into the 2017 season. “He could do it all,” Blakeney said. “He could run, throw and catch. He changed teams’ entire game plans. He wasn’t the biggest player on the field, but he had one of the biggest hearts and he is very deserving of the accolades he has received over his career especially the Troy Hall of Fame.” Considered one of the best prospects at the wide receiver position, Jernigan was selected 83rd overall (third round) by the New York Giants in the 2011 NFL Draft. He caught 38 passes for 391 yards and a pair of touchdowns in his four-year NFL career and was a member of the Giants’ Super Bowl XLVI championship team in 2012. Following his professional career, Jernigan continued his life in football as a coach where it all began for him, Eufaula High School.

Many say athletics is the front porch to any university, and nobody brought more people onto that front porch than legendary “Voice of the Trojans” Ralph Black.

“For me, and for countless numbers of people, they first learned about Troy University in depth through Ralph’s outreach and his broadcasts,” Troy current broadcaster Barry McKnight explained. “Ralph may be the most effective sales person, the most effective representative for Troy University that I have ever seen. Through Ralph, the gospel of Troy University was spread. Innumerable people got to know Troy and Troy Athletics because of Ralph Black.” Black told the story of Troy for 26 years as the play-by-play broadcaster for Troy football, basketball and baseball. “Holy Mackerel” is a signature phrase that any fan of Troy during the 1980s will surely recognize, and the call came as Ted Clem booted a 50-yard field goal as time expired to win the 1984 NCAA Division II National Championship Game. Remarkably, that was just one of four national championships that Black called during his career, as his voice painted the picture for the 1987 football national title, in addition to the 1986 and 1987 baseball national championships. Black was also part of the 1993 men’s basketball run to the national championship game. “Not many people are as good as Ralph at capturing the big moments, at transmitting the passion of what’s going on. He was an excellent big game broadcaster, and Troy played in a lot of big games in his time. It was a great marriage of opportunity for him and opportunity for Troy to have a guy like Ralph call those big games. He made it that much more special.” A native of Montgomery, Ala., Black called over 1,000 Troy sporting events from 1976 to 2002. “Anybody in the radio business, particularly sports in Alabama, knows who Ralph Black is,” McKnight said. “I got to know

him before I even came to Troy. When I came to Troy, he was a blessing and made my transition so much easier. That’s because his main concern was what’s always best for Troy. He never looked out for himself as much as he looked out for the benefit of others in the town and at the University.” Black also helped build the Troy State Sports Network into one of the largest of its kind in Alabama, at one point comprising 18 stations. “There were so many great players, so many great teams, so many great coaches and so many great personalities that would have been great no matter what, but so many people knew of them because of Ralph Black,” McKnight said. “They would’ve existed in much more of a vacuum were it not for Ralph building that radio network literally with his own hands. He didn’t have a lot of help or a lot of resources, but he would go everywhere in his car and stop at radio stations all over the state and tell them why they should be part of the network.” Black called 122 straight Troy football games, including Troy’s first season as a Division I member. “Consistency is the most difficult part of broadcasting,” McKnight said. “Anybody can get on the air and tell you for three hours where the ball is and what the score is. To do it at a high level is much more difficult, and to do it in all the places that Ralph did day in and day out is really a commitment. “Not only was Ralph so consistently there for every broadcast at a high level, but he also made it so entertaining. Anybody can get the games on the air, but Ralph not only lent a flair to each broadcast at a high level of preparedness and professionalism, but he also made it fun to listen to.” Still an important voice in the Troy community, Black is an on-air personality at WTBF and he can be heard as the public address voice for Charles Henderson High School football in addition to several local high school radio broadcasts.

Founded in 1887 as a teachers’ college, Troy University continues to live up to its founding motto: “Educate the mind to think, the heart to feel and the body to act.” This student-centered philosophy has enabled Troy University to grow from a small teachers’ college to Alabama’s International University. TROY’s educational value has been recognized by national publications such as Forbes magazine, U.S. News and World Report and the Princeton Review. Troy University’s recognition as a “best value” university has been enhanced in recent years with major capital improvements and new academic programs, including: •The launching in 2015 of the Ph.D. program in Sport Management. •The state’s first bachelor’s degree program aimed at increasing the number of interpreters for the deaf and hearing impaired. •A renovated Barnes & Noble bookstore, including a Trojan Cafe, on the Montgomery campus. •A newly updated admissions office to greet prospective students and their families in the Adams Administration building, complete with an entrance way along University Avenue and interactive video displays and entry screens. •A renovated food court area in the Trojan Student Center, including new dining options such as Steak ‘n Shake, Boar’s Head Deli, Marble Slab Creamery and Great American Cookie. •The ongoing construction for a new 78,000-square foot Trojan Fitness Center. But TROY hasn’t just made its mark in the U.S. With more than 20,000 students enrolled from across the globe, the University has become a truly international institution. TROY serves four campuses in Alabama—in Troy, Dothan, Montgomery and Phenix City. Outside Alabama, the University maintains a presence globally and has eliminated the barriers of time and place through Troy Online. At the heart of that philosophy is an international focus that provides exposure to other cultures both here and abroad. TROY enrolls more than 1,000 international students from more than 76 countries, while at the same time providing opportunities for students to study abroad in Africa, Asia, Cuba, Europe and Central, South America and the Middle East.

“What we’ve attempted to do at Troy University is to create an environment, a culture of caring, where our students can actually experience, get to know and live, work and learn with students from around the world,” Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr., Chancellor, said. “That’s essential as they prepare to make a living and a life in today’s global marketplace.” Troy University is also home to the Confucius Institute, a center aimed at promoting Chinese language and culture and fostering business exchange opportunities. In addition, the University is home to the Center for International Business and Economic Development and the Manuel H. Johnson Center for Political Economy. TROY also led the way in the United States with its dual degree 1-2-1 program, a partnership with certain Chinese universities that allows Chinese students to start their degree program at home, transfer to TROY for two years and return to their home institutions to finish their degree. Students receive diplomas from both TROY and their home institutions at the completion of the program. TROY offers undergraduate and graduate degree programs across five colleges: Arts and Sciences, Business, Communication and Fine Arts, Health and Human Services and Education. In addition, Troy University offers a Doctorate of Nursing Practice degree, which prepares its graduates for the most advanced level of nursing care, and the Ph.D. in Sport Management. Troy University offers a vast exposure to the historical and cultural arts. On the Montgomery Campus, students, faculty and the general public can visit the Rosa Parks Museum, which celebrates the legacy of the late Civil Rights leader whose refusal to give up her seat on a city bus to a white male led to the Montgomery Bus Boycott. The Davis Theater for Performing Arts, also on the Montgomery Campus, provides a venue for a variety of local and regional musical and cultural entertainment.

On the Troy Campus, the Janice Hawkins Cultural Arts Park, named for the University’s First Lady, is home to an amphitheater, walking trails and a collection of outdoor sculpture, including 200 terracotta warriors by renowned sculptor Huo Bao Zhu. The park is also home to the International Arts Center, which includes the Huo Bao Zhu Gallery, the Fred Nall Museum, and Warriors Unearthed designed by Frank Marquette, an interpretive center explaining the significance and design of the terracotta warrior exhibit. The center is also home to studio and classroom space for the University’s Graphic Design program. TROY’s College of Communication and Fine Arts provides more than 200 public performances and artistic presentations each year, to an audience of more than 250,000 people. More than 20 percent of the students on the Troy Campus are involved in music study through the Sound of the South Marching Band, choral ensembles and private lessons. This year, the Concert Chorale ensemble performed at the historic Carnegie Hall and a group of music, theatre and dance students performed at the Danza in Arte a Pietrasanta Festival in Italy. Students on the Troy Campus looking to get involved in University life can choose from nearly 200 different campus service, religious and social organizations. Cocurricular organizations include the “South of the South” marching and concert bands, Collegiate Singers and Trojan Dance Repertory Ensemble. In addition, TROY offers a variety of activities to enhance the quality of student life on campus. Troy University has an active Greek Life, with 13 fraternities, 10 sororities and five music fraternities on its Troy Campus. A fraternity village consisting of seven two-story houses was opened in 2010. The Troy Campus has two active studentled publications, The Tropolitan and the Palladium. Also, the award-winning TROY TrojanVision broadcasts three live student produced newscasts daily.

AROUND CAMPUS

33rd year University of Montevallo, ‘67 Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr., a native of Mobile, Alabama, was named Chancellor of Troy University Sept. 1, 1989. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Montevallo and his doctorate from the University of Alabama. Upon completion of his bachelor’s degree in 1967, Hawkins was commissioned a lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps and served as a platoon leader during the Vietnam War. For his combat duty, he received the Bronze Star, the Purple Heart and a citation from the Korean Marine Corps. Hawkins has overseen an era of change and growth at TROY, as he led the merger of the worldwide Troy State University System into the unified Troy University, an initiative called “One Great University.” More than $350 million has been invested in capital improvements by the Hawkins Administration, including new academic buildings on all four of TROY’s Alabama campuses. Chancellor Hawkins served as the catalyst for the University’s evolution to an international institution, as TROY has attracted record numbers of students from other nations and established teaching sites around the world. During his tenure, academic standards for admission have been increased, new degree programs were established in all academic colleges, and intercollegiate athletics joined the highest level of NCAA competition. Hawkins’ professional background includes his service as an assistant dean at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (1971-1979) and as

president of the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind in Talladega (1979-1989). In 1985, he was honored by the University of Montevallo as Distinguished Alumnus of the Year, and was the recipient of the 2003 AllAmerican Football Foundation’s “Top College President” Award. In 2005 he was inducted into the Hall of Fame of Murphy High School in Mobile, Alabama. In 2007 he was recognized as the “Alabama Citizen of the Year” by the Alabama Broadcasters Association. In 2011, Dr. Hawkins was recognized with the Chief Executive Leadership Award presented by the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) and as the March of Dimes River Region Citizen of the Year. In 2012 he received the Distinguished Public Service Award from the Secretary of the Air Force for his service on the Air University Board of Visitors from 2004-2012. In 2014 he was one of nine university presidents/chancellors worldwide— and the only one in North America—to receive the World Confucius Institute’s Individual Performance Excellence Award. In October 2016 Dr. Hawkins was inducted into the Alabama Academy of Honor. Three buildings are named in his honor: the “Jack and Janice Hawkins Chapel” at the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind, the “HawkinsAdams-Long Hall of Honor” and “Jack Hawkins, Jr. Hall” which serves the College of Education of Troy University. Hawkins was profiled as part of two books published in 2004: “Above and Beyond: Former Marines Conquer the Civilian

World” by Rudy Socha and Carolyn Darrow and “The Entrepreneurial College President” by James L. Fisher and James V. Koch. Hawkins serves on the board of directors of the Daniel Foundation, the Bennie Adkins Foundation, Business Council of Alabama, the American Village Trust, College Football Playoff Board of Managers, and Troy Bank and Trust Company. He has served as chairman of the Governor’s Committee on Employment of the Disabled, Board of Visitors of Marine Corps University, Better Business Bureau of Central Alabama, and past President of the Sun Belt Conference. He has also served on the Board of Directors of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU), as Chairman of the Council of University Presidents in Alabama, as President of the Southland Football League, as chairman of the Air University Board of Visitors, as a trustee of Talladega College, the Helen Keller Eye Research Foundation, and the American Foundation for the Blind. He is a member of the Troy Rotary Club. Dr. Hawkins is married to Janice Hawkins and they have two daughters, Katie, a former officer in the USAF who is married to Air Force Col. Dan Beall; and Kelly Godwin, an attorney and member of the Troy University faculty who is married to Adam Godwin, a former professional baseball player and a member of the Troy University baseball staff. Dr. and Mrs. Hawkins are the proud grandparents of Noah and Ellyotte, who live in Maryland, and Micah Mae, who lives in Montgomery.

the first time in program history, and the Trojans followed with another Sun Belt Tournament semifinal berth in 2021. Women’s indoor track & field posted its best-ever finishes in 2020 and 2021, while soccer took home a second-place finish in the Sun Belt in 2019.

In just two years as Troy’s Director of Athletics, Brent Jones has overseen a restructuring of the department’s external and internal teams that has led the department to set records in academics, licensing, attendance and season ticket sales. Jones leads the department under his W-4 mantra – Winning in the Classroom, Winning on the Field, Winning in the Community and Winning in the Stands. On the court, Troy posted one of its top Bubas Cup (Sun Belt All-Sports Trophy) finishes in recent years in 2020 despite many high-scoring spring sports not earning points due to the COVID-19 stoppage of play. Additionally, Jones guided the Troy Athletic Department through the most-unprecedented years in collegiate athletics due to COVID-19 with Troy operating a full capacity from a staff, student-athlete and sport participation standpoint, and Troy’s football team playing an 11-game schedule. On the court, the success of Troy’s teams has been plentiful. The Troy women’s basketball program won its third and fourth Sun Belt Conference titles in the last six seasons in 2020 and 2021. The volleyball program posted one of the best turnarounds in the nation in 2019 which saw it advance to postseason play for

This past season, the Troy softball program finished second in the Sun Belt Conference and earned an at-large selection; Troy’s first NCAA Tournament appearance in 25 years. Additionally, Troy baseball finished third in the Sun Belt, Gemma Finch advanced to the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championship in the 800m and men’s tennis entered the Sun Belt Tournament as the league’s No. 2 seed. The women’s cross country team turned in its best-ever finish at the Sun Belt Championship and the men’s basketball team won a game in the Sun Belt Tournament for the first time since 2018. Off the field of play, Jones has led Troy Athletics to extraordinary levels. Eleven of Troy’s 15 programs finished with grade point averages over 3.0 in the unprecedented 2019 spring semester while the collective student-athlete population posted a 3.11 GPA and eight total programs finished with a 3.5 GPA or higher. That success continued into the 2020-21 academic year, with 58 student-athletes receiving their degrees during the winter and spring commencement ceremonies. He currently serves as vice chair for the Sun Belt Conference Athletics Directors, the cochair of the Sun Belt Conference’s Marketing, Communications and Branding Committee, was appointed to the Sun Belt’s Name, Image and Likeness Committee and began a four-year term on the NCAA Committee on Sportsmanship and Ethical Conduct in the spring of 2021. He will assume the chair role of the Sun Belt Conference Athletics Directors for the 2023 season. Troy’s facilities have also been upgraded under Jones’ watch with new turf in The Vet, a new court design in Trojan Arena and a state-ofthe-art volleyball playing surface. Additionally, the volleyball and track & field offices in Trojan Arena have gone through a rebranding process. Troy’s tennis courts underwent a rebranding effort in the spring of 2021 in addition to the playing surfaces receiving upgrades, while the Troy Soccer Complex will have new turf in place for the 2021 season. Prior to the 2021 football season, Troy released a new premium seating area in the South End Zone of The Vet -- the Ultra Lounge -- which sold out a month prior to the season. Jones led a renegotiation on Troy’s multimedia rights deal with Playfly Sports, which has increased revenue for Troy Athletics for years to come. Additionally, Troy secured a new partnership with Affinity Licensing, which significantly

amplified Troy merchandise volume in the marketplace in addition to increasing revenue and better serving Troy’s fans and merchants. Thanks in part to a new partnership with IMG-L Ticket Solutions, the Trojans set numerous benchmarks during his four-plus years at Troy, including record-breaking attendance numbers for Troy football, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, volleyball, softball and baseball.

GAMEDAY » INDIVIDUAL CAREER RECORDS

Chip Lindsey, one of the nation’s most innovative offensive minds, begins his third season as Troy’s head coach. Lindsey, 46, has been the architect of some of the nation’s most electric offenses since moving to the collegiate ranks and his first two seasons with the Trojans were no exception. Additionally, he navigated the Trojans through the unconventional 2020 season as Troy was able to play 11 of its 12 scheduled games with the lone cancellation coming because of an opponent’s inability to play. In 2020, Troy ranked 21st nationally and second in the Sun Belt averaging 290.2 passing yards per game while sophomore quarterback Gunnar Watson led the league with 237.9 passing yards per game and by completing 70.1 percent of his pass attempts, a mark that ranked seventh nationally and third all-time in Troy history. The Trojan offensive line was also one of the best pass blocking units in the country as the group checked in third (at least 300 passing attempts) nationally per Pro Football Focus’ OL Pass Blocking Efficiency – Troy allowed just nine sacks, six quarterback hits, 45 hurries and 60 pressures in 494 passing situations. Linebacker Carlton Martial tied for first nationally with 113 tackles, which included a 21-tackle game against Coastal Carolina. The Trojans improved 63 spots nationally in scoring defense from 2019 to 2020 and 38 spots in total defense. Troy led the country with four defensive scores and the Trojans finished the season ranked as the nation’s No. 15 defense per PFF. In his first season, the Trojans topped the 500-yard mark in total offense on six different occasions to tie the program’s DI record and scored 35-plus points eight times; the second most in program history and fourth most in Sun Belt Conference history. The Trojans finished ninth nationally in passing offense (313.2), 25th in scoring offense (33.8) and 18th in total offense (456.3). He also guided quarterback Kaleb Barker, just 331 days removed from an ACL injury, to one of the best seasons in Troy history. Barker finished third nationally in completions per game (24.92), fifth in yards per game (302.3), fourth in 300-yard passing games (6) and 14th in touchdown passes (30). Among the Troy all-time greats to play the position, Barker finished third in touchdown passes and passing yards (3,628) and fourth in completions (299). Both Barker and receiver Kaylon Geiger were named to the All-Sun Belt First Team and Geiger was the league’s Newcomer of the Year. On the defensive side of the football, Martial became just the 12th player in the last 20 years to finish a season with 100 tackles, 15 tackles for loss and three interceptions on his way to AllAmerica honors while true freshman safety Dell Pettus was named a Freshman All-American. Both offseasons saw the positive momentum continue as Lindsey and his staff signed two of the top recruiting classes in program history. The 2020 class was the second-ranked class in the Sun Belt

@TroyAthletics

and the third-highest rated class in school history according to 247Sports. Troy added 17 threestar players in the class including several ranked near the top 100 in their position nationally. The most-recent class featured the highest per-player average ranking and didn’t include a handful of Power Five conference transfers. Lindsey’s first stint at Auburn as an offensive analyst resulted in the Tigers winning the SEC Championship and making a BCS National Championship run, while his most recent tenure on The Plains saw Auburn set school records and post one of the best offensive seasons in SEC history. In 2017, Auburn became just the eighth team in SEC history and the first in Auburn history to rush and pass for 3,000 yards in a season. The Tigers also ranked 26th nationally in total offense and set an Auburn record scoring 327 points in SEC play. Auburn won the SEC West Division after knocking off a pair of top-ranked teams in Georgia and Alabama over a three-week period. All-SEC quarterback Jarrett Stidham, the second Auburn player ever to throw for 3,000 yards in a season, led the SEC and ranked ninth nationally in completion percentage. Running back Kerryon Johnson was SEC Offensive Player of the Year, and Ryan Davis set an Auburn receiving record with 84 catches. Prior to leaving for Kansas, Lindsey’s final season at Auburn saw the Tigers defeat Pac-12 Champion Washington and nationally-ranked Texas A&M. Lindsey returned to Auburn from Arizona State, where he served as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in 2016. The Sun Devils started 5-1 before losing three quarterbacks to injury; running back Kalen Ballage tied an NCAA record scoring eight touchdowns in a 68-55 win over Texas Tech.

As offensive coordinator at Southern Miss from 2014-15, he developed the Conference USA 2015 Offensive Player of the Year and current San Francisco 49ers quarterback Nick Mullens, who ranked second in the league in passing yards (4,145) and TD passes (36), and ranked in the top eight in the nation in both marks in 2015. The Southern Miss offense broke five singleseason school records in 2015: completions (312), passing yards (4,263), total offense yards (6,758), touchdowns (67) and points (528), as the Golden Eagles recorded nine wins, a Conference USA West title, and a berth in the Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl against Washington. Lindsey’s 2015 Golden Eagle offense ranked fifth in the nation in total touchdowns, seventh in total points, eighth in total passing yards and completions, and 12th in points per game and passing yards per game. The 2015 Golden Eagles tallied more than 4,200 passing yards and just under 2,500 rushing yards. The national leader with 102 explosive plays, Southern Miss was just the second school in FBS history with a 4,000-yard passer, a 1,000-yard receiver and two 1,000-yard rushers. Prior to his first stint at Auburn, from 2011-12, Lindsey served as head coach at Spain Park (Ala.) High School, leading the school to its first 6A regional championship. Lindsey served as quarterbacks coach at Troy in 2010, following a long and distinguished career as a prep coach (1997-2009) in football and baseball. At Troy, he coached the Sun Belt Freshman of the Year Corey Robinson and helped guide the Trojans to their fifth consecutive Sun Belt Championship. Robinson set a school record for completions (321) that season while his 3,726 passing yards rank as the second most in Troy history; he threw for 387 yards and four touchdowns in Troy’s New Orleans Bowl victory.

The Trojans totaled the second most passing touchdowns (33) and most completions (340) in a season in school history. A two-time coach of the year honoree (200809) at Lassiter (Ga.) High School, he guided the development of Parade All-American Hutson Mason, who broke every single-season state passing record in 2009, including passing yards (4,560) and touchdowns (54), and Phillip Lutzenkirchen, who would break tight end records at Auburn. The Trojans went 12-1 and won a regional championship in 2009, and Lindsey received state coach of the year honors from the Atlanta Falcons and the Cobb County Touchdown Club. The Associated Press, Marietta Daily Journal and Cobb County Touchdown Club named him the 2008 Georgia Coach of the Year. Lindsey served as offensive coordinator at Hoover (Ala.) High School in 2007 as the team finished 10-2 and advanced to the third round of the state playoffs. Lindsey’s first experience as a head coach came from 2005-06 at Colbert Heights (Ala.) High School, where he earned 2006 Coach of the Year honors from the Florence Times-Daily. Lindsey spent the 1997-2004 seasons as an assistant coach, including Florence, Deshler, Sparkman, and Springville High Schools in Alabama. Lindsey played football at the University of North Alabama before transferring as a student to Alabama, where he received his bachelor’s degree in history and English in 1997. He earned a master’s in educational leadership from the University of Phoenix in 2005. A native of Madison, Ala., Lindsey graduated from Bob Jones High School, where he was a three-sport letterman. Lindsey and his wife Cecily have four children: Claire, Caroline, Cooper and Conner.

Led by Michelle Ncube, the Troy Women’s Tennis program rounded out a sound fall slate to prepare for the upcoming spring league action. Troy’s best outing of the fall came at the ITA Southern Regional at the Roberta Alison Baumgardner Tennis Facility. Ncube kicked off action Thursday against McNeese State’s Natalia Mora Ballo, advancing to the Qualifying Round of 32 with a 6-3 6-4 win. The Harare, Zimbabwe native followed with a win over Samford’s Sofia Zaprianov, 6-4, 6-3, to climb to Friday’s Qualifying Round of 16. Ncube kickstarted the Friday with a 6-4 6-3 win over Jacksonville State’s Romane Mosse in the Qualifying Quarterfinals to earn a spot in the Main Draw before battling from behind, 5-0, to earn a 7-5 6-0 win over Southern Miss’ Ebru Zeynep Yazgan to advance to tomorrow’s Main Draw Round of 32. “Michelle Ncube hasn’t dropped a set all weekend despite some really long days,” said head coach Rawia Elsisi. “In her last match today, she stayed really focused on the court and came from behind against a really tough opponent. I am very proud of her for making her way through the qualifying rounds and into the main draw. She had been putting in a lot of work prior to this tournament, and it is evident on the court. She is getting better day by day.” After not dropping a set through her first two days of action and fighting through the qualifying rounds to earn a spot in the Main Draw, Michelle Ncube came up short in the round of 32 to LSU’s Mia Rabinowitz, 6-2 6-3. Led by sophomore Andrea Widing, Troy women’s tennis closed out the fall season the following weekend at the at the Roberta Alison Fall Classic hosted by the University of Alabama. After dropping the opening set 6-2 to Dolavee Tumthong, Widing rebounded for a clutch 6-3 victory in the second set.

Troy instrumentalists not only have the opportunity to participate in the renowned “Sound of the South” Marching Band, but also have the opportunity to perform in the Symphony Band, four concert bands, jazz Ensembles, the Basketball Pep Band and various small ensembles. The 2015 – 2016 year marked the 50th Anniversary of The “Sound of the South” Marching Band. Dr. John M. Long created the band in it’s current form in the fall of 1965. Dr. Long developed The “Sound of the South” into a collegiate ensemble that has developed a national reputation for its quality musicianship and exciting, innovative arrangements and drill design. The “Sound of the South” Marching Band entertains audiences regularly at all Troy home games and several away games. Recent away appearances include Troy University’s bowl appearances at the Silicon Valley Classic in San Jose, Calif., the GMAC Bowl in Mobile, Ala., and three appearances at the New Orleans Bowl in the Louisiana Superdome. In fact, over the past few years, the “South of the South” Marching Band has traveled tens of thousands of miles entertaining audiences literally from coast to coast. Additionally, the “Sound” has been featured on all major broadcast and sports networks including ESPN, Fox Sports South and USA television networks. Other honors which the “Sound of the South” has received is the representation of the State of Alabama at the Inaugural Parades of President Richard Nixon (1969 and 1973), President Ronald Reagan (1985), and President George Bush (1989). The “Sound” has also performed halftime shows

with Grammy Award-winning artists Brian McKnight, Lee Greenwood, The Temptations and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, Chubby Checker.

A year after Troy Track and field placed 16 Trojans on the outdoor track and field All-Sun Belt Team, with seven punching their ticket to NCAA Preliminaries, the Trojans look to run towards new heights in 2022. Last spring, at the Sun Belt Outdoor Track and field Championships, the Trojans turned in 12 podium performances, including five gold medal finishes. Still, the awards didn’t stop there as the Trojans placed nine athletes on the indoor track and field All-Sun Belt team highlighted by six first-team selections. Troy will look to break more records in 2022 as Troy set a new program record at the 2021 Sun Belt Indoor championships with a 90-point output at the meet. The Trojans finished in third place at the championships as a team. The Trojans are led by Director of Track & Field Marc, who enters his eighth season as the Director of Track & Field/Cross Country in 2021-22. Over his time here at Troy Davis has accumulated 18 Sun Belt Conference Champions, 89 All-Conference Performers, 72 School Records since 2015, 3 All Americans Recorded top finishes in school history at Sun Belt Indoor and Outdoor Championships for Men and Women over the past three years Track and field star and Trojan women freshman of the year Gracie Booher returns after breaking the school record in the 10,000m with a time of 35:43:63. After receiving the Bronze last year, SBC Championships, sophomore Cole Stewarts has his sights on more medals. The Trojans will see a plethora of new faces this upcoming year as they see 21 new athletes join this year’s Trojan squad. Earlier in the week, the Trojans saw two new signings already during the early signing period as Ethan Womack joined the Trojans from Hewitt-Trussville High School in Trussville, AL, is a decathlete, and Jasai Taylor comes from Richmond Hill High School in Richmond Hill, GA, and his event is the hurdles. He is the current Student Government Association president, but George Maxwell is also a part of the Trojan Track and Field team in his second year running the mid-distance event for the Trojans. Former Troy Track & Field athlete Gemma Finch recently announced she would continue her track and field career running professionally for Atlanta Track Club Elite. During her time at Troy, Finch won seven Sun Belt Gold medals, was named the 2020 Troy Female Athlete of the Year, is the school record holder in the 800m with a time of 2:02.81, and qualified for the 2021 NCAA Championship in Eugene, Oregon where she finished 20th. The Track and field season will culminate in Lafayette, Louisiana, with the Sun Belt Championship beginning on May 12 and running through the 14th to wrap up the year.
