Tiger Ba a sketba a ll 2006-0 0 7 Outlook The first phase of the Cy Alexander era was to move Tennessee State basketball from the bottom of the Ohio Valley Conference to middle of the pack. After seven years of not finishing above .500 in conference play, Coach Alexander and the Big Blue have accomplished the feat the two past seasons. Entering his fourth season with the Tigers, Coach Alexander looks to put Phase Two into motion, going from the middle of the pack to the top of the OVC. The team to accomplish this task seemed to be intact with 2004 OVC Freshman of the Year, Bruce Price, returning from a season ending injury, last years point guard Reily Ervin, Andrae Belton and the front court of returnees Clarence Matthews, Larry Turner, Courtney Bohannon and Mississippi State University transfer Jerrell Houston. But, another season ending injury to Price will thrust Ervin back into the role of running the offense. Price averaged 19.3 points and 5.8 assists in just six games last season before getting hurt in a game against Ohio State on December 23, 2005. “I am disappointed for Bruce, he had worked so hard to get back into shape,” stated Alexander. “But, we won’t let the team use his injury as a crutch.” Entering Phase Two, TSU needs to be steady and consistent as they expect to be in the top tier of the conference. The Tigers still feel they have enough pieces to put them in contention to achieve one of their goals of hosting a first round game in the OVC tournament and make a run at the OVC title. “We were so dependent last year,” said Alexander. “We need someone to step up before camp begins. I would like to see who will immerge as a leader.” Ervin will have the reigns once again, but this time he will have the experience of being the court general. The junior from Memphis, Tennessee, averaged 9.1 points, 4.9 assists, and 1.5 steals-pergame as he took over for Price. Tennessee State also returns two other starters in seniors Jr., Matthews and Turner. Matthews, a 6’7” forward, has been selected

as the pre-season conference Player of the Year by two national publications after shooting .545 (144264) from the floor and averaging 13.7 points and 8.5 rebounds-per-game, while starting in all 28 games last year. Turner, the 6’11” center, a transfer from the University of Oklahoma, played in 24 games last season for the Tigers, starting in 22, and averaged 4.3 rebounds and 6.0 points-per-game. Turner and Matthews teamed up for 73 blocked shots and helped TSU to 3.86 blocks-per-game, which was second best in the OVC. Bohannon, a senior forward, and Belton, a junior guard, each averaged 16.8 minutes per game. Bohannon averaged 3.5 rebounds and 2.9 point, while Belton chipped in 3.4 points and 1.9 rebounds. The Tigers season will be based on the productivity of potential from Turner and Matthews on the boards and the ability of Ervin and Belton to be consistent and successful. As well as the knowledge they have of the system. The addition of Houston and junior college transfer Moraye Ivy, add to the depth. Houston averaged 2.3 points and 2.2 rebounds in 13 games for the Bulldogs, while Ivy put up 12.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 2.4 steals for legendary coach Verties Sales at Southwest Tennessee Community College. “I like this team and I like their character,” Alexander commented. “The returners know what it is going to take to be successful. We need good senior leadership and we have good people who understand what is needed to take us to the next level.”

Schedule Coach Alexander’s squad will look to keep up their home court dominance, as they have compiled an 18-6 record over the past couple of seasons. They also look to improve on the five road victories the team achieved last season. TSU will face another challenging schedule this season as they

open with NIT participant Western Kentucky followed by a trip to Lawrence, Kansas, to take on the perennial national power Jayhawks. Both games are a part of the Las Vegas Invitational. The Tigers will return from Vegas and travel down to Alabama to take on the nationally ranked Crimson Tide on December 2, followed with a contest with Middle Tennessee State. The Big Blue opens the home portion of the schedule with Southeast Missouri State and Eastern Illinois, a pair of OVC games, on December 7th and 9th, respectively. Coach Alexander will get the services of Belton and Houston, who will sit the first eight games due to compliance reasons, for a match-up at Auburn and a home game against 2006 Bracket Buster opponent Ball State. The 2007 part of the season consists of a majority of OVC play, as well as a non-conference game with Fisk on January 15 and an ESPN Bracket Buster game on February 17. The Tigers are 1-0 in Bracket Buster play and will host an opponent to be named at a later date. “Tough!”, expressed Alexander. “It is a very challenging schedule that opens with us being thrown into the frying pan against Western Kentucky and Kansas. Our non-conference games will prepare us for a tremendously tough OVC schedule.” The 2006-2007 Tigers will dedicate the season to Bruce Price, who will have to spend another year rehabbing to finally play his third season for TSU. The Big Blue will look to step into Phase Two with “Hard Work, Dedication, and Commitment”.

Point Guard Andrae Belton, 6-3, 185, Jr., 2L *Reily Ervin, 5-10, 160, Jr., 2 L #Bruce Price, 6-3, 205, Jr., 2L Cody Waddey, 5-10, 160, Sr., 1L Ladarious Weaver, 6-1, 165, Jr., JC * - returning starter # - out due to injury Price, after tearing his ACL, is a huge loss to the position and Coach Alexander will look to Ervin and the other guards to bring leadership and a strong defensive work ethic. The Tigers look for Ervin, Weaver and Waddey to be steady and to run the team with consistency night in and night out. Ervin picked up experience last year and knows what it takes to win in the OVC. He is a steady play-

er who needs to become more of a leader and looks to improve on his 66% free throw shooting from a year ago. He will look to be more consistent with his game and will get help this season from junior Ladarious Weaver, who is a versatile guard that is still learning the point. He brings good quickness and ball handling skills. Weaver has a scorer's mentality and is the teams best perimeter shooter. He will be used at the big guard position and at times together with Ervin. The Atlanta, Georgia, native averaged 27 points-pergame in high school and will be looked upon to score in the absence of Price. Former walk-on, Cody Waddey, will get a chance to play this season as he got stronger and quicker over the summer and improved his perimeter shooting. The former Franklin High School product is fundamentally sound and is extremely quick. Belton is the teams best perimeter defender and has strong knowledge of the game. He can step into the point if he is pressed into the position, but is better suited at the big guard spot.

Big Guard Andrae Belton, 6-3, 185, Jr., 2L Moraye Ivy, 6-5, 220, Jr., JC Ladarious Weaver, 6-1, 165, Jr., JC * - returning starter Ivy and Weaver look to contribute at big guard, especially before Belton returns to the court on December 19. His return will strengthen the team and increase the depth for Coach Alexander. Ivy is a tremendous talent who will challenge for the starting position. His versatility allows him to be used at both the big guard and small forward positions. He needs to work on being a more consistent shooter from 3-point range, but brings the ability to post up the smaller defenders. Weaver is more of a natural fit at this position and brings instant offense to the Tigers. He looks to contribute at both guard spots and will get stronger as the season progresses. Belton looks to pick up where he left off last year, as he showed a glimpse of his potential shooting 5for-8 from the field in TSU’s first round conference tournament loss at Samford. He is fundamentally sound and will most likely defend the opponents best perimeter player. Belton needs to be a better shooter for the Tigers and needs to build his confidence and step up as a three-year team member.

Small Forward Courtney Bohannon, 6-8, 200, Sr., 3L Jerrell Houston, 6-8, 215, So., TR Moraye Ivy, 6-5, 220, Jr., JC John Summers, 6-7, 215, Fr., HS * - returning starter Houston is a big time athlete, which Coach Alexander and his staff look for big things from. He is a versatile player who can play both forward roles. He will get his share of minutes with the ability to guard the smaller players with his quickness and the bigger opponents with his strength. Bohannon has been a role player for the Tigers and will be looked upon to play both forward positions, as well as some time at center. The coaching staff feels he will be able to handle the duties at all three positions due to his knowledge of the defensive system. He possess the ability to be a leader and has shown a great maturity on and off the court. Bohannon will draw the duty of defending the best interior player. John Summers, a high school center, will be an added shooter to the Tiger offense. He shows a strong ability to rebound and is a student of the game. The Columbus, Ohio, native is a great student with great character and will grow in his game as he improves his athleticism, strength, and quickness. Summers is known for his hustle and will also be looked at as a power forward. Power Forward Courtney Bohannon, 6-8, 200, Sr., 3L Jerrell Houston, 6-8, 215, So., TR *Clarence Matthews, 6-7, 250, Sr., 1L John Summers, 6-7, 215, Fr., HS * - returning starter Bohannon, Houston, and Summers bring needed depth, but it is Matthews who will patrol the interior with center Larry Turner. Matthews led the OVC in overall field goal percentage (.545) and rebounding (.85), and averaged 9.1 rebounds a game within the conference. For the season, he averaged 13.8 points a game and was named to the all-OVC Newcomer Team and second team all-OVC. The Beaumont, Texas, native is a tremendous athlete who is very powerful and has the ability to free himself with his post moves. The Tigers need a big year out of the senior who posted double-digit rebounds in ten games.

Sr., F, Clarence Matthews

Matthews will work on staying out of foul trouble after being disqualified from six games last season and picking up four fouls in another 12 contests. He is up for the challenge ahead, feeling a bulls-eye has been put on his chest by being named a pre-season Player of the Year candidate. The goal is to keep him in the moment and focus on the task at hand.

Center Rashad Armstrong, 6-8, 260, Fr., HS Courtney Bohannon, 6-8, 200, Sr., 3L Clarence Matthews, 6-7, 250, Sr., 1L *Larry Turner 6-11, 240, Sr., 1L * - returning starter After transferring from Oklahoma, Turner did not live up to the hype in his first season with the Tigers. He never seemed to get into “tip-top” shape and came in very raw offensively. But after spending a summer working out and attending a “Big Man” camp, the 6’11” senior enters in shape and brings a tremendous amount of confidence to his game. He has the ability to run the court and is working on the ability to attack the boards this season.

www.t tsut tige ers.com m

The Milledgeville, Georgia, product needs to be more productive to open more opportunities for himself and Matthews. Coach Alexander will also look to the two big men to battle for rebounds in the OVC. Bohannon and Matthews will spell Turner at times along with freshman Rashad Armstrong, who has the potential to be a contributor in time. Armstrong is an intelligent player who has leadership qualities, but will need to get into top shape. If the Tigers can get the big time play that is expected out of Matthews and Turner, along with the continued improvement from Ervin and Belton, who both showed potential last season, the Big Blue will make a strong step into Phase Two of Coach Alexander’s plan.

Darren Tillis is set for his fourth season at Tennessee State University. He comes to the program after serving as an assistant coach at Clemson University. Tillis, a 1982 NBA first-round draft pick for the Boston Celtics, will work with the TSU post players along with other duties as assigned by head coach Cy Alexander. He joined Clemson in April 1998 with head coach Larry Shyatt. Tillis was also with Shyatt at Wyoming and helped the Cowboys to a 19-9 record and a berth in the National Invitation Tournament. After a stellar high school career at Lincoln High in Dallas, Tillis was recruited to Cleveland State by an assistant coach named Larry Shyatt. Within the Cleveland State program, Tillis flourished, serving as a four-year starter for a program that averaged almost 18 wins a season. In fact, Cleveland State won exactly 18 games each of his last three years and had a winning season every year. As a senior in college, Tillis was named a Sporting News Honorable Mention All-American, thanks in part to a 17.3 scoring average and 12.8 rebound average in 1981-82. He is still considered one of the greatest players in Cleveland State history, and ranks first in school history in career blocked shots (171), second in rebounds (1,045) and fourth in scoring (1,423).

In 1983-84 he was traded to the Golden State Warriors.

In 1984-85, Tillis's playing career moved to Europe and the Italian League, perhaps the finest European professional basketball league. He played in Italy two years and his team won the championship both seasons. He averaged 20 points and 10 rebounds per game for the two seasons. At the end of the 1985-86 season, Tillis suffered a head injury, as an opponent undercut him while dunking. The injury led to a battle with epilepsy and it put his career on hold. Tillis sat out 1988-89, then played a year in Spain before retiring from active play permanently. Tillis began his coaching career in Europe as head coach of Ockelbo, Sweden. He was the head coach of that professional team for two years, 1993-94 and 1994-95. His first stint as a Division I college coach was in 1995-96 at SMU where he worked under John Shumate. He returned to school full time in 1996 and earned his bachelor's degree from Paul Quinn College in Dallas. The following season, 1997-98, he was back in the coaching ranks working for the man who recruited him to college, Larry Shyatt. Tillis played a big part in Wyoming's most successful season in 10 years.

All ties will be broken starting at the top of the conference standings and working down. The tiebreaking system will utilize the following factors, in order, until all ties are broken. TWO-WAY TIES 1. Records in head-to-head competition are compared, with the higher seed going to the team that has won the most games against the other. 2. In the event step 1 does not resolve the tie (i.e. if the two teams split their games during the season), then the records of the tying teams against the No. 1 seed shall be compared. The team with the better record against the No. 1 seed shall gain the higher seed. 3. If the potential No. 1 seed is among tied teams, the process in step 2 will begin at the highest point in the standings which does not involve a tied team. 4. The process continues, through the No. 11 seed, if necessary. 5. In the event the tie cannot be broken, seeds will be determined by a coin flip. MULTIPLE TIES 1. Composite records between the tying teams will be evaluated to determine if one team has won more games against the other tying institutions. 2. In the event step 1 does not solve the multiple ties, or reduce the multiple ties to one tie, then a comparison of records of the tying institutions against the No. 1 seed will occur. The team among the tying institutions with the better record against the No. 1 seed will receive the higher seed. 3. If the potential No. 1 seed is among tied teams, the process in step 2 will begin at the highest point in the standings which does not involve a tied team. 4. The process continues, through the No. 11 seed, if necessary. 5. In the event this process does not resolve the ties, seeding will be determined by a coin flip. Note: If a multiple tie is reduced to a tie between two teams, the two-team tiebreaker formula will then be utilized. Ties involving teams higher in the standings are always broken before ties involving teams lower in the standings.

2006-0 07 OVC Pre-S Season selections The Tennessee State University Men's Basketball team has been predicted to finish second in the 2006-07 Ohio Valley Conference race. TSU forward/center Clarence Matthews was selected to the Preseason All-OVC first team. The preseason team and predicted order of finish were voted on by the league's head coaches and sports information directors. During the 2005-06 season, Matthews, a 6-7, 250 lb senior from Beaumont, TX, averaged 13.9 points per game and was finished as OVC leader in rebounds with 239 in 28 games (8.5 rpg) and Field Goal percentage (.545). He led the league in both offensive rebounds with 86 (3.07 pg), and defensive rebounds with 153 (5.46 pg). He was second in the conference in Blocked Shots with 47 (1.68 pg). "I'm happy that Clarence was picked for this preseason honor." said TSU head coach Cy Alexander. "His play has shown him to be very deserving of this " Alexander continued, "I guess the conference voted us preseason number two with the thought that we would have Bruce Price back with us, but his absence will mean we have to work extra hard to meet that standard (#2)." Tennessee State will open their regular season schedule on November 19th, playing at Western Kentucky in the first round of the Findlay Toyota Las Vegas Invitational Tournament. From WKU the Tigers travel to play at Kansas on November 21st and then on to Las Vegas to face Prairie View A&M on November 24th and either Chattanooga or Towson on November 25th. The Tigers will play at Alabama (12/2) and Middle Tennessee (12/7) before opening at home with two OVC games against Southeast Missouri (12/7) and Eastern Illinois (12/9). TSU will close out the calendar year playing at Auburn (12/19), hosting Ball State (12/22) and traveling to Loudonville, NY for a match-up with Siena.

The Ohio Valley Conference ennessee State has been a member of the Ohio Valley Conference since 1986. The OVC is entering its 59th year and continues to build upon the success that has made it the nation’s eighth oldest NCAA Division I conference. TSU claimed one of the most prestigious honors recently when it was the recipient of the 2000-2001 OVC Academic Achievement Banner. The OVC Academic Banner is given annually to the institution whose student-athletes have the highest combined grade point average as compared to the average of the full-time entire student body. TSU’s accomplishment marked just the third time in the 17 years the award has been given that an institution outside of the Kentucky membership had won the award. Over the last decade the OVC has grown, not only in the number of athletic opportunities provided for student-athletes, but in terms of the number of institutions in the league. In 2003-04, the OVC expanded into Alabama for the first time as Jacksonville State and Samford became members of the conference.

A dynamic, doctoral granting, research institution, Tennessee State University has evolved from its founding in 1912 as a normal school for Negroes. In 1922, the institution became a four-year teacher's college and began granting bachelor's degrees. By 1941, there was a substantial upgrade of the educational program, paving the way for the school to award its first master's degree in 1944 and to be granted university status in 1951. After being designated as a land grant university in 1958, the institution emerged as Tennessee State University (TSU) in 1979. Today, TSU has two campuses. One is located in North Nashville and occupies more than 500 acres. The Avon Williams campus is located downtown near the State Capitol and central business district. Both campuses have undergone physical transformations with renovations and new buildings that create pleasant and state of the art learning environments. The academic program has also evolved, offering more than 44 bachelor's degrees, 26 master's degrees, a specialist degree, and doctoral degrees in six areas. It is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Throughout the years, Tennessee State University has attracted an outstanding faculty. They continue to distinguish themselves. Most recently, a member of the faculty cast his vote in the debate that removed Pluto from the list of planets. The faculty have positioned TSU as one of the leading institutions in research and sponsored program funding in Tennessee. Currently, Tennessee State University has an enrollment which exceeds 9,000 students from nearly all of the 50 states and 38 countries. Likewise, TSU has nearly 25,000 alumni throughout the United States and abroad. Among this group are many who have distinguished themselves both nationally and internationally. Most would agree that the best known alumnus is Oprah Winfrey. This storied past clearly positions Tennessee State University to sharpen its competitive edge as it educates tomorrow's leaders.
