Troy University believes in a total commitment to improving the lives of its student-athletes. All decisions are based on the idea that our athletes, who are the leaders of tomorrow, are students first. Our commitment is to provide the student-athlete with the assistance necessary to balance athletic and academic participation. The Troy University Athletics Department is an integral part of the University. Its mission is to assure a balance between the desire to win and the desire to facilitate positive growth of student-athletes. The athletics department will strive to graduate student-athletes who will make significant contributions to society, view their experience as rewarding and who will be proud alumni and advocates of the University.

NCAA Regulations

The NCAA has set straightforward and stringent guidelines as to whom may represent a member institution in athletics. The organization utilizes the Eligibility Center to determine eligibility for every potential student-athlete. The Eligibility Center determines if the prospect meets the minimum requirements set forth by the NCAA. The Eligibility Center looks beyond grade point average and SAT/ACT test scores. It also scrutinizes the high school transcript to determine if the student-athlete has met at least 16 academic core course requirements. These include four years of English, three years of mathematics, two years of sciences, two years of social studies and four additional academic courses. The NCAA requirements do not stop with initial eligibility. Student-athletes have to maintain a steady progression toward graduation while remaining in good academic standing with the University. This is done by maintaining a prescribed GPA (depending upon classification) and passing at least 24 semester hours of degree work each academic year. Further, NCAA rules stipulate a student-athlete must declare a degree program of studies, and thereafter make satisfactory progress toward that specific degree. This is done to help ensure the mission of collegiate athletics, which is to graduate student-athletes, not exploit them for their athletic abilities.

Student-Athlete Services Troy University student-athletes are fortunate to have the Office of Student-Athlete Services (SAS) available to them. SAS provides all student-athletes with the support necessary to make their collegiate experience as beneficial as possible. The primary goal of SAS is to develop, nurture, encourage, and inspire our student-athletes emotionally, socially and intellectually. SAS aspires to challenge our student-athletes to embrace ownership of their responsibilities. SAS also urges our student-athletes to apply the same level of dedication that makes them superior athletes to their academic endeavors.

Strength

and

Conditioning

The strength and conditioning program at Troy University continually produces prepared and conditioned athletes for the highest level of collegiate competition. Strength and Conditioning Coach Richard Shaughnessy heads the program that works with Troy's 17-sport athletics program. Under Shaughnessy's direction, the program has achieved new heights. The current weight room, located on the first floor of the Movie Gallery Stadium Tower, has been a major factor in its success. The program plays a key role in the department's efforts to build a comprehensive and competitive athletics program. It also works to provide all Trojan studentathletes with a winning edge in preparation for the playing field. The million dollar strength and conditioning facility is 10,000-square and accommodates more than 420 studentathletes. It is designed with all sports in mind with more than $150,000 in equipment. It houses cardiovascular equipment, hammer systems, power racks and a variety of leg apparatuses. Cross-training equipment and a multi-station crossover machine are among the items that have also recently been added. University courses are also taught in the facility throughout the year. The strength and conditioning staff trains and monitors each of Troy's 17 athletic teams in order to determine progress and preparedness. All athletes are tested a minimum of three times per year, according to different categories. Each member of the football team is ranked by a point system, according to the athlete's progress in the following 12 categories: bench press, squat, hang clean, vertical jumps, height, weight, 40-yard dash, 12-yard dash, box jumps, dots, jump ropes and 225 reps. The squad is broken up into seven levels from highest to the lowest: Elite, Exclusive, Ultra, Super, Champion, Player and Trojan. Ample and efficient equipment along with an experienced and determined staff allows the strength and conditioning program to constantly produce successful and prepared athletes for Troy.

Troy University has long been a leader in the field of athletic training. In 1990, the establishment of a four-year curriculum only strengthened the University’s commitment to this vital area of athletics. The athletic training staff is committed to not only providing exceptional healthcare to student-athletes, but also to providing outstanding education to student trainers. The coursework, which is accredited by the National Athletic Trainers Association, prepares students to become certified athletic trainers while working closely with the athletics department and gives them invaluable hands-on experience. The program assigns at least one certified trainer to work with each varsity sport on campus. John “Doc” Anderson, who returned to Troy following an 11-year stint as head trainer at Louisiana State, started the academic program in 1991 and continues to oversee its progress as curriculum director. Anderson was Troy’s head athletic trainer for 13 years prior to leaving for LSU in 1980. Head athletic trainer Chuck Ash, who coordinates all aspects of the athletic training program, has been with Troy for 19 years. Ash is assisted by three full-time trainers: Cherise Crisman, Diana Montgomery and Allison Steed, all of whom graduated from Troy University. The program also employs six graduate assistant trainers. In January of 2005, the athletic training program moved into its new, state-of-the art, facility on the second floor of the Movie Gallery Veterans Stadium tower. The new facility includes expanded rehab and treatment areas, hot and cold tubs for treatment of injuries, new staff offices as well as room for a medical clinic with examination rooms and x-ray facilities.

In order to be successful and progressive, the Troy athletic training program aligns itself with exceptional professionals in the field. Troy has benefited tremendously from its lasting relationship with Dr. James Andrews, one of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading orthopedic surgeons. Andrews is a member of the Troy Board of Trustees, as well as the Chief of Staff of Alabama Sports Medicine in Birmingham, which has quickly become one of the leading comprehensive sports medicine centers in the world. Andrews and his orthopedic group also team with the Troy athletic training program for the Alabama Sports Medicine High School Outreach Program. This program assists area high school coaches with the healthcare process for their athletic programs. Dr. Mickey DiChiara and Dr. Jefferey Dugas also serve as team physicians for the Trojans and have been instrumental in the development and organization of the athletic training program. With a committed staff of trainers and physicians, a competitive accredited curriculum and an updated facility, Troy has an ideal and progressive athletic training program. The ultimate beneficiary of that success is the Troy University student-athlete.

2008 season outlook

As Troy University head football coach Larry Blakeney prepares for his 18th season of guiding the Trojans’ football fortunes, the goals for 2008 remain the same as past seasons. But, in order to reach those goals, many questions must be answered. Those questions include breaking in a new quarterback while also having young players at all of the other offensive skill positions; replacing one corner back who led the nation in interceptions, and another who was a first round NFL draft pick; going into a season with not one, but two, freshmen kickers; and, finally, facing a brutal schedule that will have his team on the road for seven of its first nine games. Answering those questions will determine the type of year the 2008 Trojans have. “We are a young football team, and we have some rebuilding to do,” Blakeney said. “But, our number one goal is to win the Sun Belt Conference, period. To win the league is critical.” And to win the league, the Trojans must be ready for the rigors of conference play very early. Troy opens the 2008 campaign against arch-rival Middle Tennessee in the “Battle for the Palladium” on August 28. The rivalry game has normally been a late-season showdown, but will kickoff the Sun Belt season on Thursday night in Murfreesboro. After the game with the Blue Raiders, Troy will face four consecutive non-conference games that includes trips to face both LSU and Ohio State. Those two teams faced off for the 2007 BCS National Title and will be looking to get back in the championship picture. Following the four non-conference games, the Trojans will travel to Florida Atlantic for a Tuesday night game in early October on ESPN. “Middle Tennessee and Florida Atlantic are the first two games we will play in the league, and those are a huge priority,” Blakeney said. “We aren’t going to say we aren’t going to try to win every game, but those two games are important. Everything we do with our personnel, with our training, with injuries, will be geared toward those two games.” Taking the necessary steps to prepare to win those games started in the spring when answers were found as to the quarterback situation, but other questions still remain. “Cornerback is a huge concern for us,” Blakeney said. “We signed some junior college guys and we have some guys here we think can play. I think we are going to be OK in other areas, but we are only one key injury away from needing some young players to step forward.”

Trojans Retool on Offense for 2008

After two record setting seasons with Omar Haugabook at quarterback and Tony Franklin running the offense, the Troy Trojans will go back to the drawing board for 2008. But, Trojan fans can rest easy because new offensive coordinator Neal Brown, the youngest coordinator in the entire Football Bowl Subdivision at 27, says nothing is going to change. “We are going to do the same types of things,” Brown said. “What we have done here for the last two years has been successful. If something isn’t broke, it doesn’t need to be fixed.” There will be differences in the 2008 Trojan attack, but that was going to happen regardless of who the coordinator is. Haugabook, the two-time Sun Belt Conference Offensive Player of the

Jerrel Jernigan Year at quarterback, is gone. In his place are a trio of young gunslingers. All of them have experience, but none has had to carry a team. All three players – sophomores Tanner Jones (Wakulla, Fla.) and Jamie Hampton (Cedar Bluff, Ala.), along with junior Levi Brown ( Mt. Juliet, Tenn.) – gave strong performances during spring ball in the battle to replace Haugabook. Hampton came away with a slight advantage, but can not get comfortable with the other two breathing down his neck. Brown said the best decision the coaching staff made in the spring was to do nothing. “We recruited some junior college quarterbacks, but we did not sign one,” Brown said. “I was a little nervous about that, but now I think it was the best decision we could have made. We had three guys who performed well in the spring and I believe we have three guys, coming out of spring ball, that we can compete with and win.” Hampton gained the advantage due in great part to his ability to run with the football. He showed off that running ability in his first collegiate game last year when he broke off a 56-yard scramble against Arkansas. “The thing with Jamie is that he can move around the pocket,” Brown said. “As the spring progressed, he got better and better throwing the football. I think he can do some really good things. He is a winner and I am excited about him. He has worked hard, is a smart kid and I feel good about where he is.”

Youth and Depth Top Concerns For Trojans

2008 TROY TROJANS FOOTBALL

2008 season outlook Jones and Brown have stronger throwing arms, and Brown has experience as a starting quarterback at the I-AA level. “Levi performed very well and Tanner improved as the spring went on,” Brown said. “Jamie has to get a lot better because Tanner and Levi are going to push him. If he doesn’t continue to work hard and get better, those other two guys are going to catch him.” But the retooling of the Troy offense does not start and end at quarterback. Also gone from 2007 are the teams’ top two rushers (including Haugabook), and the top three receivers. The offense must also replace a multi-purpose back to was a key in the running games’ improvement from the previous year. In place of those players will be a group of youngsters, all of whom have played, but none of who has been in the spotlight like they will be this fall. “Obviously, losing Omar is a great loss, but we have a guy coming in who is similar,” Brown said. “Losing Kenny Cattouse at running back, we have a guy who is similar. Losing Gary Banks at receiver, we have guys who can take up for that loss.” In the backfield, the job falls to sophomore DuJuan Harris (Brooksville, Fla.). As a true freshman in 2007, Harris showed that he can be a more than adequate backup by rushing 82 times for 372 yards. Now, he will be asked to shoulder more of the load, but he won’t have to do it alone. Speedy senior Xavier Moreland (Williamson, Ga.) (eight carries, 35 yards) returns and they will be joined by a junior college runner and a pair of high school signees. Junior Maurice Greer (Denver, Colo.), who comes to Troy from Garden City Community College, is the most likely candidate to make an immediate impact in the backfield with Harris. “DuJuan Harris has a chance to be really good, the sky is the limit for him,” Brown said. “We feel good about Greer because he is an older kid.” Greer was named Mr. Football in Colorado as a senior and was ranked as a top 10 running back in the nation. But, his football career was interrupted by cancer. “Greer was outstanding coming out of high school and he had a great freshman year in junior college,” Brown said. “Then he found out he had cancer. He had surgery, went through the chemo and sat out a year. When he came back, he wasn’t the same player. He had an OK year last year and, now, his body is in much better shape. “If he is as good as he was last year, he’ll help us out in the passing game and with pass protection. If, however, he is as good as he was his freshman year, then we have a great situation, because he can be a difference maker.”

At receiver, the loss of Banks was about more than the numbers he produced on the field. Being just one year younger than the Trojans’ new coordinator, Banks was like having an additional coach on the field. “We are going to miss Gary Banks, no question about it,” Brown said. “His production, we’ll be able to replace that, but what will be hard for us will be to replace his leadership. We have guys who can do all of the things that Gary did except we don’t have the big, strong, physical guy right now.” Despite losing the top three players in terms of receptions from last year, the Troy receiving corps returns 15 players who recorded at least one reception last year. Ten of those 15 players found their way into the end zone at the end of pass plays last year. But, like at running back, none has ever been asked to be”The Man”. The most likely candidate to fill that role will be sophomore Jerrel Jernigan (Eufaula, Ala.). As a true freshman last year, Jernigan started to come into his own toward the end of the season and he finished the year fourth in receptions (30) and third in receiving yards (337). “We have experience there,” Brown said. “Every kid we will put out there has played in a game. The difference is, those guys have to transition to being starters. They will be counted on more this year. “We want to move Jerrel around and get him as many touches as he can handle. He has to show that he can be more durable than he was last year. He is dynamic with the ball and can do some special things. We want to get him the ball, but he is going to determine how much we can do.” Senior Mykeal Terry (Fullerton, Calif.) is the most experienced of the returning receivers, but he had a down year in 2007 after finishing second in receiving the previous year. Kennard Burton (Pahokee, Fla.) and Gerald Tate (Sarasota, Fla.) are two other

games last year, and junior Steven Merkel. “Potter, Adams and Merkel will all get a chance at right guard,” Brown said. “Potter may have a slight edge, but he has to play better. A lot of his problem was because he was overweight. He is down to about 305 now and he moves better. Now, if we can get him playing low, he has a chance to be a good player.” Clark came out of nowhere last year to take the starting job at right guard from Chambliss. “He is a tough kid who competes, even though he is a little undersized,” Brown said. “I didn’t even know who he was coming into camp. The first week of practice we figured out who he was. We gave him a chance and he ended up starting. He has gotten stronger, put on some weight, and we expect good things from him.”

Depth Will Be Key Concern on Defense

The focus of the Troy defensive staff during spring ball was simple – find replacements for Leodis McKelvin and Elbert Mack at cornerback. Obviously, that is easier said than done when you are talking about the No. 11 overall pick in the NFL Draft and the top pass thief in all of college football. Replacing those two players will still be of utmost priority once the Trojans report to camp in late July, but that will be far from the only area of concern. While returning starters dot the depth chart on defense, behind them there is very little actual game experience.

seniors who will try to build on what they did last year after arriving at Troy from junior college. Juniors Cornelius Williams (Hoover, Ala.) and Andrew Davis (Pelham, Ala.) also have two years in the offense, and, along with sophomore Austin Silvoy (St. Augustine, Fla.), will be expected to increase their production in 2008. Two newcomers, junior college transfer TeBiarus Gill (Mobile, Ala.) from Jones County Junior College and freshman Chip Reeves (Stone Mountain, Ga.) will also have a chance to contribute. The only skill area on offense where there is no ready replacement is at the H-Back, or fullback, spot. Last year, Sean Dawkins manned that position and was able to run, block, split outside and run pass routes and catch passes. That role will be divided this year with junior Travis Boyd (Lacey’s Spring, Ala.) taking more of the tight end/pass catching duties, while junior Nathan Nolin (Graceville, Fla.) takes over more of the fullback duties. Nolin moved to offense from linebacker in the spring and impressed his coaches. “He has to put on some weight, but he has a great work ethic, is a great guy to have on offense,” Brown said. “He can catch, runs well and, if he continues on, he is a guy we can use. He is not Dawk, but if he can be the fullback and H back then he’ll play some snaps and help us out in the running game.” Boyd, a former walk-on like Nolin, saw some playing time at tight end last year and will likely see that duty increase this fall. “He had a good spring last year and ended up playing about 20 snaps per game,” Brown said. “He still has to get better, but I think we will use the tight end more this year than we did last year. It helps so much in this offense to have a tight end, especially running the football.” Entering 2007, the biggest question marks were up front where only one starter returned. Those questions were answered and now, entering the 2008 season, Troy has six players back with significant starting experience up front. “Those guys were the unknown last year,” Brown said. “We had a couple of guys we knew were pretty good, but those guys played a lot better than we thought. A lot of the credit for that goes to John Schlarman, but they played higher than expectations. This year they will be called on to lead the offense.” The line features anchors at both tackle spots and at center. Tackles Dion Small (Americus, Ga.) and Chris Jamison (Columbus, Ga.), along with junior center Danny Franks (Bartow, Fla.) make up the glue of the offense. All three have All-America ability and tons of experience. “We are going to lean on those guys a lot to lead this offense, and I expect us to be better than we were last year, and we were pretty good up front last year,” Brown said. “It makes me feel a little better with a young quarterback and young running back, having those guys up front.” Both guard spots could be up for grabs in the fall, even though both positions have returning starters. Wesley Potter (Bellevue, Wash.) started every game at right guard and Tyler Clark (Alabaster, Ala.), a walk-on, started five games at left guard. Both will get pushed by junior Steven Adams (Bruce, Fla.), who had a great spring, as well as senior Will Chambliss (Catula, Ga.), who started seven

ners, are our biggest concerns,” Jeremy Rowell, who is entering his third season as defensive coordinator, said. “We have good experience coming back in our starters, but not much behind them.” Corner remains the top priority, with senior Trevor Ford (Miami, Fla.), a transfer from Florida State, and sophomore Chris Bowens (Columbus, Ga.) tentatively penciled in as starters. Both showed flashes of their ability in the spring, but neither was consistent enough to etch their name in stone on the depth chart. Both players will be pushed by junior college signees Kedric Manning (Eatonton, Ga.) and Jorrick Calvin (Baton Rouge, La.). A pair of freshmen, Bryan Willis (Columbus, Ga.) and KeJuan Phillips (Waycross, Ga.) will also get a look. “Corner is a concern after losing those two guys because we don’t have anyone else who has played,” Rowell said. To help ease the burden on the corners, the Trojans will lean heavily on a trio of veteran safeties. Seniors Sherrod Martin (Griffin, Ga.), Terence Moore (Columbus, Ga.) and Tavares Williams (Gainesville, Fla.) have all played a lot of football over the last three years for the Trojans. “Those guys will be the leaders back there,” Rowell said. “We are going to do some stuff with those guys to protect those corners a little, at least until we see what they can do. Hopefully, two of those corners will step up and we won’t have any worries in the secondary. We feel pretty good about the nickel and the safeties.” Martin, who Rowell says is the Trojans’ best defender, moves back to free safety this year, switching places with Moore at the nickle. The move will give the Trojans a little bit bigger player in Moore to send on blitzes and help in the run game. Of course, the key for the success of any secondary is the amount of pressure applied at the line of scrimmage. Up front, the Trojans have six veterans – three at end and three at tackle – to apply that pressure. But, like everywhere on the defense, there isn’t much experience past those first six guys. “We’ve got good experience coming back up front,” Rowell said. “We have Dion Gales (New Orleans, La.), Steve McLendon (Ozark, Ala.) and Maurice Coleman (Eufaula, Ala.) back inside, and two of those three have started. We have to have a little help

there on the interior. “At end, we lost Shawn Todd, but we get Brandon Lang (Tucker, Ga.) back from injury. We have a couple of JC guys coming in and a couple of young guys coming on, for depth. With Lang, Kenny Mainor (Brunswick, Ga.) and Cameron Sheffield (Portal, Ga.), all pretty good guys, back. The biggest deal is depth. We have to add some bodies and build up.” Lang missed most of last season after suffering a torn ACL in the win over Oklahoma State. With his combination of size (6-4, 249) and speed, he has a chance to be a cross between former Trojans DeMarcus Ware and Osi Umenyiora, although Rowell doesn’t want to hang that label on him just yet. “Lang is a big-time player,” Rowell said. “He has great size and a good motor to make plays. He doesn’t have the kind of speed that Demarcus had, but he has more size. He doesn’t have as much strength as Osi, but he has more speed. He is more of a combination of the two, but he is not on their level yet. Fortunately, he still has two years left, but he definitely has a chance to be in their category.” Junior Boris Lee (Fargo, Ga.) returns to anchor the linebacking corps after leading the team in tackles last year. Rowell said he has a chance to be better this year because he will enter the season with more size. “Boris has gained some weight, up into the 220s, which will be 20-25 pounds heavier than last year,” Rowell said. “He has another year of experience. He is a wonderful football player, but he needs to keep getting better.” Lee will be flanked my another former walk-on at the Will linebacker spot. Junior Bear Woods (Macclenny, Fla.), who came to Troy as a quarterback, came into his own last year and continued to make strides in the spring. “He had a great spring, made a bunch of plays and is a very smart player,” Rowell said. “He will be able to help us. But, behind those guys we have to find some depth. Guys like Donnell Golden (Quitman, Ga.), Lennie Richardson (Ashburn, Ga.) and Xavier Lamb (Tallahassee, Fla.) need to step up and be ready to help out. David McDowell (Asheville, NC) had some minor injuries last year, but he will need to step up and help us this year.”

2008 season outlook The one area where the Trojans have no experienced returnees is on special teams. Last year Greg Whibbs handled all of the placements and most of the punting, while Leodis McKelvin was an All-American as a return man. Both leave big shoes to fill. A pair of redshirt freshmen will take over the kicking duties. Michael Taylor (Pensacola, Fla.) will handle placements and kickoffs while Will Goggans (Douglas, Ga.) will assume the punting duties. “I worry a lot about that,” Blakeney said. “We can do some things to help those young guys out, but we have to be good at it. I think both of those guys have a chance to be good.” The positive for both is that the holder, Austin Silvoy, and snapper, Derick Thomas (Elba, Ala.), are back. Last year was the first for either of them to handle those duties and both performed well. The race to fill the shoes left by McKelvin is wide open and will likely be split among several players. Sophomores Jerrel Jernigan and KeJuan Harris handled most of the returns in the spring, but they will likely be challenged for the jobs by incoming junior Jorrick Calvin, who handled returns in junior college, as well as diminutive freshman T.J. Mitchell (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.), a speedy running back from south Florida. “I think Jerrel is a guy who can shoulder a lot of the load,” Blakeney said. “He is a guy who could make, or break us, if he can stay healthy.” To help ease the transition of the kickers and returners, the Trojans will employ a host of experienced special teams players on both the kick coverage and return teams. Headlining that group will be seniors Sherrod Martin, Terence Moore and Xavier Moreland along with junior Courtland Fuller (Columbus, Ga.) and sophomore Bryant McKissic (Phenix City, Ala.).

Schedule Makers Not Kind To Troy

Seven of the first nine games are on the road. Included in that stretch are road games against the two schools that have shared the Sun Belt Conference title with Troy the last two seasons – Middle Tennessee in 2006 and Florida Atlantic is 2007. Also included are trips to face LSU and Ohio State – both of which figure to be back in the top five in the nation this year – as well as a journey to face an Oklahoma State team that will still be smarting from the loss they took in Troy last year. “We have to play them all,” Blakeney said. “We can’t cancel the games. It is a unique schedule, but we have to find a way to shape it and make it work for us. If we can survive the first month, then we will have a lot of soft time between games later in the year. “If we can still be in the race after that first part of the schedule, then we may have a chance. But, everyone in this league can beat you.”

2008 TROY TROJANS FOOTBALL

head coach, larry blakeney

Larry Blakeney is a winner. Always has been. From his time as a quarterback at Auburn, to his highly successful high school coaching career, to his 14 years as an assistant coach at his alma mater when the Tigers enjoyed an unprecedented run of success, Blakeney has always been associated with winning and a job well done. His tenure at Troy has been nothing less. During his 17 years as head coach, he has led the Trojans to a 136-68-1 record, third best among all programs in Alabama during that span. Already the school’s longest-serving and most successful head coach of all time, Blakeney has led the Troy football program to an unequaled run of success that has taken the Trojans from Division II, to the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), and now to the grandest stage of all - the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). The Trojans took a huge step forward in 2006, capturing their first Sun Belt Conference title and winning the first bowl game in school history, a decisive 41-17 victory over Rice in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. That victory completed an 8-5 record, the best for the Troy program since the move to the FBS. The roll continued in 2007 as the Trojans earned a share of their second straight Sun Belt Conference title. The teams’ 8-4 record included nationally televised victories over Oklahoma State and Middle Tennessee. The program made its first big splash at the sports’ highest level in 2004 by producing a 7-5 record that included the schools’ first-ever bowl bid to the Silicon Valley Classic. The grand unveiling of a renovated Movie Gallery Stadium was highlighted by a 24-14 upset of Missouri that was televised live by ESPN. In 2003, the Trojans posted a 6-6 mark against one of the most challenging schedules in the nation, which included eight road games and contests against traditional powers Kansas State, Minnesota, Nebraska and Virginia. In addition, the Trojans faced and defeated Marshall and UAB and played four schools from the Sun Belt Conference. In 2003, Troy defeated

While a member of the FCS, the Trojans enjoyed their most successful run in school history. Over eight seasons, the Trojans advanced to the national semifinals twice and the FCS postseason seven times, including a NCAA-record four consecutive seasons after making the move to I-AA in 1993. When the Trojans jumped to FBS status, Blakeney again made NCAA history — becoming one of only two coaches to lead a program from Division II to the FBS, joining UCF’s Gene McDowell. Blakeney’s journey began on Dec. 3, 1990, when he was hired as the 20th head coach in school history. During the 1980s, Troy won two Division II national championships, but the program was a rebuilding project upon Blakeney’s arrival. In the three years prior to him accepting the job, the Trojans had combined for a 13-17 record. His first two seasons came during the transition period in the move to FCS status. The program was still technically Division II, although it was not allowed to

Included in the 2001 win total were three wins over FBS foes and a monumental upset of Southeastern Conference power Mississippi State, the school’s first win over a BCS-conference school. Of the team’s four losses, three came against opponents ranked in the top 15 nationally - national runner-up Nebraska, 15th-ranked Maryland and national champion Miami. In 2002, the Trojans were 4-8 against a schedule that included games against two SEC schools, three Big 12 opponents, in-state rival UAB and perennial bowl participant Marshall. The Troy defense finished fourth in the nation in total defense in 2002 despite the challenging slate.

Blakeney’s first squad finished 5-6, but a 10-1 second year, which included a 41-7 win over FBS member Arkansas State, gave Troy fans a glimpse of what was to come. Troy hit its first full season of FCS play running in 1993 when Blakeney led the Trojans to a 12-1-1 finish and a berth in the FCS semifinals. The 10-0-1 regular-season finish was the program’s first undefeated season in school history while playing a complete schedule. Troy finished the regular season ranked No. 1 in the country by the Sports Network. The following season brought an 8-4 record and another berth in the playoffs. The Trojans lost in the first round at James Madison, but they proved they deserved a spot among the elite programs, finishing the year ranked 12th. The 1995 season brought the first unbeaten and untied regular season to the school annals when Troy took an 11-0 record into the postseason before losing in the first round to Georgia Southern. Troy entered the playoffs ranked No. 3 in the nation that season. For all of the success the team enjoyed in its first three FCS seasons, Blakeney’s rebuilding skills were displayed once again during the 1996 season after the loss of 23 seniors from the 1995 squad.

That record includes four SEC Championships and nine bowl appearances (6-2-1). In 1990, he was honored by the Chilton County Auburn Club with its “Unsung Hero Award.” Before joining the coaching staff at his alma mater, Blakeney coached seven seasons in the Alabama high school ranks. He was the head coach at Southern Academy (1970-71), Walker High School (1972-74) and Vestavia Hills High School (1975-76), compiling a 50-24-2 record. A 1970 graduate of Auburn with a bachelor’s degree in business administration, Blakeney was a three-year letterman at quarterback for the legendary Ralph “Shug” Jordan from 1966-69. He was the first sophomore ever to start for Jordan, and Auburn played in two bowl games during Blakeney’s career. The 1968 team defeated Arizona 34-10 in the Sun Bowl, while the 1969 squad lost 36-7 to Houston in the Bluebonnet Bowl. Blakeney was a two-sport star for the Tigers. He also lettered in baseball in 1968 and 1969, playing shortstop and third base for head coach Paul Nix. He earned his master’s degree in education from the University of Montevallo in 1976. He was born on Sept. 21, 1947, in Birmingham, Ala., but grew up in nearby Gordo, Ala., where he played football, baseball and basketball at Gordo High School. He is married to the former Janice Powell. The couple has three daughters, Kelley, and twins Julie and Tiffany.

2008 TROY TROJANS FOOTBALL

sun belt conference While there are 31 NCAA conferences that sponsor multiple sports, the Sun Belt is one of only eleven to participate in the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) and Football Bowl Subdivision. The Sun Belt was formed in 1976 with six members competing in four men’s sports, and today comprises 13 institutions of higher learning while sponsoring 19 championship sports for men and women. The Sun Belt Conference enters its 33rd season in 2008-2009 with a proud history of athletic and academic success. The conference sponsors 10 women’s sports - basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball; and nine men’s sports – baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, swimming and diving, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. Each of the 19 sports has seen numerous team and individual accomplishments, and 12 Sun Belt Conference schools are currently graduating its student athletes at a rate higher than their school’s student body. All Sun Belt schools are committed to excellence in the 21st century, and facility upgrades and expansion are occurring on virtually every campus. During the 2007-08 academic year alone the Sun Belt Conference accomplished numerous feats. In the fall of 2007 Middle Tennessee and Western Kentucky University both represented the league in the NCAA Volleyball Tournament – the first time the Sun Belt has sent multiple teams to the NCAA Tournament in volleyball. Middle Tennessee did not disappoint, as the Blue Raiders advanced to the “Sweet 16” – marking the first time a Sun Belt school has made the round of 16 in volleyball. The Sun Belt momentum continued in the sport of football as Florida Atlantic defeated Memphis in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. The win marked the second consecutive season that a Sun Belt team has defeated its Conference USA opponent as Troy defeated Rice in 2006. In men’s basketball, Western Kentucky University and South Alabama both received bids to the 2008 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament – the first the league has sent two teams to the “Big Dance’” since 1994. WKU’s 101-99 win over 14th ranked Drake followed by a 72-63 win over San Diego made the Hilltoppers the first Sun Belt team to reach the tournament’s “Sweet 16” since 1993. Despite losing more than half of the league’s All-Conference members from 2006-07, Sun Belt women’s basketball ranked in the top half (14th of 31) of the final league RPI rankings for the 10th consecutive year. In six of those ten years, Sun Belt women’s basketball has placed in the national top 10 for RPI. There was no shortage of success in the Sun Belt’s spring sports in 2008 as well. In tennis, Florida International and Denver represented the Sun Belt in the NCAA Women’s Tennis Tournament – with the Pioneers advancing to the second round. In men’s tennis, South Alabama and Denver represented the league in the NCAA Tournament with USA advancing to the second round. Sun Belt golf was also well represented in postseason play as Middle Tennessee’s men’s team and Denver’s women’s team both reached the NCAA National Championship. Both the Blue Raiders and Pioneers finished in the top ten of their regionals to advance to the final stage of the NCAAs. The 2008 Sun Belt softball season saw Louisiana-Lafayette reach the Women’s College World Series after defeating Houston in three games in the Super Regionals and winning the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional by defeating East Carolina and in-state rival LSU twice. In baseball, the Sun Belt Conference has sent multiple teams to the NCAA tournament each year since 1988. The 20-year streak of having two or more teams reach NCAA play is matched by only four other conferences (ACC, Big West, SEC, Pac-10). Because of its status as a member of the Division 1-A football coalition, the Sun Belt Conference has a permanent seat on the NCAA’s 17-member Board of Directors. As a result, the conference has a crucial voice on some of the most pressing issues in college athletics and will always have a role in the implementation of any future NCAA legislation and guidelines. The conference continues to utilize television to grow and promote the league. Adding volleyball, baseball and softball to

sun belt conference

The conference’s first 32 years have also produced numerous individual national champions along with Olympic track medalists including Earl Bell, Tom Hill and Al Joyner (Arkansas State), Hollis Conway (Louisiana-Lafayette), and Tayna Lawrence (Florida International). Old Dominion’s Anne Donovan received the Naismith Trophy recognizing the nation’s top women’s basketball player in 1983, helped the United States win the Olympic gold medal in 1984, and helped the Lady Monarchs capture the national championship in 1985 (one of eight women’s Final 4 appearances by Sun Belt schools: Old Dominion - 1983, 1985; WKU – 1985, 1986, 1992; Louisiana Tech – 1994, 1998, 1999). Sun Belt teams have also participated in the men’s NCAA Final 4 (UNC-Charlotte in 1977), the College World Series (Louisiana-Lafayette in 2000), the women’s College World Series (Louisiana-Lafayette in 1993, 1995, 1996, 2003), and had 10 players selected in the first round of the NBA Draft. The Sun Belt Conference is led by Commissioner Wright Waters, who is in his ninth full year as commissioner. He was named the conference’s fourth commissioner in February of 1999 following the tenures of Vic Bubas (1976-1990), Jim Lessig (1990-1991), and Craig Thompson (1991-1998). The league’s annual all sports champion is awarded the Vic Bubas Cup, named after the conference’s first commissioner. The conference office has been headquartered in downtown New Orleans since 2000 after moving from suburban Metairie, La., where it had been based since 1991. Prior to moving to the “Big Easy,” the league was based in Tampa, Fla., from 1977-1991. The original conference office was located in Charlotte, N.C., from 1976-77.

The Trojans dominated the last three years of the conference, claiming the league title in 1967, 1968 and 1969. Its predecessor, the Alabama Intercollegiate Conference, was formed in 1938 by the same in-state schools, along with Marion Military and St. Bernard.

BATTLE FOR THE OL’ SCHOOL BELL

At every level of college football, there are great rivalries. For Troy, it is bitter rival Jacksonville State University. The two teams began playing each other in 1924, with the Gamecocks holding a 33-28-2 edge in the all-time series. However, the Trojans have won seven straight and 12-of-15 in the series. Both schools began as teacher colleges in the late 1800s, and when the teams first played, they created a trophy that the winner would have until the teams met again the following year. School officials determined that it was fitting for two teachers colleges to play for a school bell. The Ol’ School Bell, as it is called, has been in Troy for the past 10 years and will remain in Troy in the near future since the teams are not scheduled to play against each other.

The Trojans earned their first bowl victory in 2005, downing Rice 41-17 in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. Troy earned its way into the bowl by posting a 6-1 record in Sun Belt Conference play to capture their first SBC title.

On June 4, 1990, Troy officially withdrew from the GSC. During its 20 years in the GSC, Troy claimed six conference titles. The Trojans hold a 129-75-5 all-time record in GSC play. “THE KICK” “The Kick,” as it is called, is used to describe Ted Clem’s 50yard field goal as time expired that gave Troy an 18-17 win over North Dakota in the 1984 Division II national title game. The kick was Clem’s third field goal of the game and finished off one of the greatest comebacks in school history after the Trojans fell behind 14-0 in the first quarter. “THE KICK” - PART TWO Drew Boteler’s 22-yard field goal attempt slipped through the uprights, capping a 14-point comeback, as Troy rallied to knock off North Texas, 18-16, in the school’s first home game against a Division I-A school on Dec. 1, 200l. Boteler’s game-winner was not a picture-perfect kick. The field was soaked from rain that had fallen throughout the day, and the redshirt freshman slipped while planting to make the kick. On top of that, the kick was tipped at the line of scrimmage, leading one North Texas lineman to celebrate as the officials signaled the kick was good.

VOICES OF THE TROJANS

Over the past 25 years, Troy has had four play-by-play announcers, including current announcer Barry McKnight. For the majority of those years, Ralph Black was the “Voice of the Trojans.” Black called more than 200 of Troy’s football games, including both Division II national championships. Black served as the play-by-play announcer for all Troy sports, having broadcast two Division II national championships in baseball and the Division II championship game in basketball (1992).

T-ROY DEMARCUS WARE T-Roy, the Troy mascot and a fan favorite, has been a familiar sight at Troy athletic events since making his first appearance in the mid 1980s. T-Roy became the official school mascot after a campus-wide decision on the name for a new mascot. There was an election by the student body with “T-Roy” coming out on top.

TROJANS - THE NICKNAME

2008 TROY TROJANS FOOTBALL

The Troy athletic teams have had a variety of names through the years - from Bulldogs to Teachers to Red Wave. As the football team began competition in the 1910s, the team was called Bulldogs or Teachers (since the school began as a teacher’s college). In 1922, the group was called Trojans for the first time. That lasted until Albert Elmore’s arrival on campus in 1931. A graduate of the University of Alabama, Elmore changed the nickname to Red Wave, a variation of Crimson Tide. The Red Wave moniker stuck until 1973, when the student body was again charged with voting for its new team nickname. The first game of the season in 1973 was on the road against Northeast Louisiana (now Louisiana-Monroe). The squad departed Troy without a nickname, but students voted on the nickname that Saturday morning. The winner? Trojans. The current nickname won the election by a two-to-one margin, with the ballots being tallied hours before kickoff. With the new nickname, the Trojans battled Northeast Louisiana to a 15-15 tie.

TROJANS IN THE POLLS

During their eight years at the I-AA level, the Trojans were a mainstay in the I-AA polls. Troy finished ranked in the Top 25 every year but one (1997). Troy finished at the top of the polls in 1993, and was ranked number one for three straight weeks in 2000. Overall, the Trojans finished in the top five, four times and the top ten, five times.

TROY UNIVERSITY

Troy hasn’t always been University. When the school was founded in 1887, the school was called the State Normal School Troy. In 1929 the school changed its name to the Troy State Teachers College. That would last until 1957, when the school was renamed to Troy College. The school was then named Troy State University in 1967 . In 2004, the Board of Trustees voted to remove the “State” from the name, making it Troy University. Trustees felt the name change allows the university system to reflect its quality, funding sources and global mission better.

The second of the school’s “player-coaches,” George Penton managed the team for two seasons. Penton led Troy to its only perfect season in 1912, winning all three games. Against Highland Park on N3, 1911, Penton put himself in the game. “With the putting in of the Troy coach at fullback in the last quarter, the stubborn defense put up by Highland Park began to weaken and three touchdowns were made,” according to the game report in the Montgomery Advertiser. He is the all-time winningest coach by percentage at Troy.

J.W. Campbell 1921-23 l 12-13-1

J.W. Campbell brought football back to the Troy campus after an eight-year hiatus. Campbell’s first season was far from a success due to the “limited numbers and raw material out of which he had to make his team.” Campbell’s vision was to build through his first season in hopes of developing “a powerful football machine before which it will take a powerful team to stand.”

As wide receivers coach and offensive play-caller for the Tigers, he helped lead Auburn to four SEC titles and coached in nine bowl games. A three-year letterwinner under Ralph "Shug" Jordan, Blakeney led the Trojans through their move from Division II to Division I-AA and then to Division I-A in 2001. He was responsible for bringing Troy back to national prominence, leading the Trojans to the I-AA semifinals twice. In Troy's first season in Division I-A, Blakeney guided the Trojans to a 7-4 record and a win over Southeastern Conference foe Mississippi State.

award winners This award is given yearly to the top defensive player in the nation at the NCAA Division I-AA level. The award was named after former Grambling State defensive lineman Buck Buchanan, who went on to a stellar career with the Kansas City Chiefs. Two-time All-American defensive tackle Al Lucas claimed the award after the 1999 season. That year, he led the Trojans with an 11-2 record and a berth in the Division I-AA quarterfinals. He finished with 126 tackles, which ranked second on the team and recorded 20 tackles for loss during the season.

NICK COLBERT 2000 SCHOLAR-ATHLETE AWARD Nick Colbert was named a 2000 College Football Scholar-Athlete by the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame. He was one 16 award recepients named in 2000 for the award which represents college football’s finest studentathletes from all divisions. Colbert graduated from Troy in May 2001 with his degree in Biology, and finished with a grade point average better than 3.7. He was an annual member on the school’s Provost and Chancellor Lists for academic excellence. Since 1959, when the first class was selected, 586 scholarathletes have been awarded the honor based on superior academic performance, outstanding football ability, strong leadership and citizenship. Each scholar-athlete is awarded an $18,000 postgraduate scholarship and honored at an annual dinner for the award. Including Colbert, there have only been eight winners from the state of Alabama, with the last being in 1991 before Colbert’s honor.

troy university AN ERA OF EXCELLENCE

Troy University’s tradition of teaching excellence dates to its founding on February 26, 1887, when an act of the Alabama Legislature established Troy State Normal School as an institution to train teachers for Alabama’s schools. Joseph Macon Dill was the institution’s first president. In 1893, the school was renamed Troy State Normal College. The Normal College offered extension courses for teachers and granted teaching certificates until 1929, when the State Board of Education changed the charter of the institution and renamed it Troy State Teacher’s College. That same year, the college moved to its present site and the first two buildings were dedicated: Shackelford Hall, named for Edward Madison Shackelford, president of the school from 1899-1936, and Bibb Graves Hall, named for David Bibb Graves, Alabama’s “education governor”. Governor Bibb Graves is also remembered for commissioning the Olmsted Brothers architectural firm of Brookline, Massachusetts, to design the campus landscape plan. Like many American universities, Troy State Teacher’s College enjoyed one of it most prosperous periods of growth in the years following World War II when returning veterans took advantage of the GI Bill. The enrollment of the College more than doubled and this growth led to the introduction of degree programs in disciplines other than education, most notably in business. In 1957, the State Board of Education recognized this expanded role and dropped “Teacher’s” from Troy State College’s name. The decade of the 1950s also marked the University’s long relationship with the United States Military, as extension courses were offered on nearby bases, first at Fort Rucker, near Dothan, and later at Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery. A separate “Troy University is more a mosaic than a portrait. It is a Troy State College teaching center was established at Fort Rucker in 1961, which evolved into the present-day Dothan Campus. A university that reflects the world of tomorrow.” similar center, begun at Maxwell Air Force Base in 1965, led to --Jack Hawkins, Jr., Ph.D., Chancellor of Troy University the creation of the present-day Montgomery Campus. These programs were the forerunners of the modern University College division of Troy University, which operates all TROY teaching sites outside of Alabama. In 1973, the University opened sites at military bases in Florida. Today, University College operates more than 60 sites in 17 U.S. states and 11 nations. In 1967, Gov. Lurleen B. Wallace appointed eight members to the newly established Troy State College Board of Trustees, removing the institution from the control of the State Board of Education. One of the first acts of the new board was to recommend the change of the name to Troy State University. The new name became official on Dec. 14, 1967. In 1975, the Phenix City Campus was opened as a branch of the main campus. In 1982, the Troy State University System was formed, as the campuses in Dothan and Montgomery were granted independent accreditation status. In April of 2004 the Board of Trustees voted to drop “State” from the University’s name to better reflect the institution’s worldwide mission. Starting August 2005, all TROY campuses were again unified under one accreditation.

A GLOBAL UNIVERSITY

Over the past two decades, Troy University has emerged as a key player in international education. In addition to the University College sites abroad in diverse places such as Korea, Germany and Malaysia, the University brings the world to Alabama, as approximately 700 students on the Troy Campus come from other nations. Chancellor Hawkins calls the TROY approach to internationalization a “three-legged stool” of student recruitment, faculty development and study abroad. More than 114,000 people around the world call Troy University their alma mater. The University’s Office of Alumni Affairs currently has chartered alumni chapters. TROY is proud of her alumni, in all walks of life, who have made a great impact in their chosen field of endeavor.
