“Frank has been a big part of what we’ve accomplished at LSU both on and off the field. He’s ready to be a head coach. He’s worked long and hard for this opportunity and I couldn’t be happier for Frank and his family. He’s going to do a great job and we are going to miss him.”

“Frank Wilson has been preparing for this day for years and there is no doubt in my mind that UTSA got a great young head coach that will inspire, teach and model what winning in life and football looks like. He is a special coach and friend that all of UTSA will soon come to love.” — Hugh Freeze, Mississippi head coach

— Les Miles, LSU head coach

The Frank Wilson File Coaching Experience

hea d c o a c h Fr a nk Wi l s o n “Coach Wilson is one of the best coaches I’ve ever had. He is a man of integrity and honor and he holds true to his word. From day one, he always looked out for me. He’s a great coach, a great person and a great man. He is like family to me and I wish him much success in the future. I know he is going to do good things.” — Odell Beckham Jr., New York Giants wide receiver “Coach Frank Wilson changed my life. He gave a young kid from New Orleans a chance to compete and learn on a higher level. He opened the doors for so many of us Louisiana athletes and I’m just happy to see him making strides and becoming all that he can be. He is the true inspiration.” — Tyrann Mathieu, Arizona Cardinals safety “It’s hard to put in words how much Frank Wilson means to me, not as a coach but as a man. It is very difficult nowadays to find a man with the integrity and loyalty that he displays on a day-in and day-out basis. It is an amazing thing to see someone who has put so much hard work in to finally have the opportunity that he so willingly deserves. It’s truly been a pleasure to say I have been coached by Frank, but more importantly to know him as family.” — Jeremy Hill, Cincinnati Bengals running back

With nearly 29,000 students and 1,383 faculty members, UTSA is the third-largest component of the University of Texas System. Ninety-nine percent of its full-time tenured and tenure-track faculty members hold doctorates or equivalent terminal degrees.

Dr. Ricardo Romo, a San Antonio native, became UTSA’s fifth president in 1999 and is the first Hispanic president in the university’s history.

Strength & Conditioning UTSA student-athletes are running faster and getting stronger thanks to a commitment to an enhanced strength and conditioning program and the renovated Patrick Clynes Family Strength & Conditioning Center.

Mission Statement

The UTSA Strength & Conditioning Department provides athletes the means by which they can train consistently, sensibly and systematically over designated periods of time in a safe, clean and professional environment to help prevent injury and improve athletics performance.

Philosophy

The philosophy of the University of Texas at San Antonio strength & conditioning program adheres strictly to the three proven scientific principles of adaptation ‌ Specificity The transfer of a training adaptation to a gain in competition performance. Overload Adaptation takes place when the magnitude of training is greater than normal and is achieved by prescribing the correct number of sets, repetitions and intensity of effort. The primary focus is the muscular and energy systems’ adaptation to overload. Periodization Training phases must be planned so that speed, agility, power and endurance will peak during the most important competitions.

N C AA Co m p l i an c e The NCAA Rules

and

Fans

Compliance with NCAA rules is one of the highest priorities for our athletics program and institution. As a member of the NCAA, the University of Texas at San Antonio is accountable for the actions of its boosters and fans. Even the bestintentioned action on a fan’s part may be a violation of NCAA rules. Please contact the UTSA Compliance Office if you have any questions concerning what is permissible. Inquiries should be directed to the UTSA Compliance Office at this address: UTSA Compliance Office Intercollegiate Athletics One UTSA Circle San Antonio, TX 78249 Phone: (210) 458-5493

Representatives of Athletics Interests A “representative of UTSA’s athletics interests,” or booster, is anyone who: • Has ever participated in or is currently a member of the various athletics department support groups; • Has made a donation to the athletics program; • Has helped arrange summer and/ or vacation employment for studentathletes; or • Has been involved, in anyway, in the promotion of UTSA’s athletics program

32

Extra Benefits

Prospective and current studentathletes may not receive extra benefits. An extra benefit is any special arrangement by an institutional employee or representative of the institution’s athletic interests to provide a student-athlete or his/her family a benefit not authorized by NCAA legislation. Extra benefits would include, but are not limited to: • An employment arrangement for a prospect’s relatives; • Gifts of clothing or equipment; • Cosigning of loans; • Providing loans to a prospect’s relatives or friends; • Cash or like items; • Use of an automobile; • Any tangible items, including merchandise; • Free or reduced-cost services, rentals or purchases of any type; • Free or reduced-cost housing • Use of a college’s athletic equipment; • Sponsorship of or arrangement for an awards banquet for high school, prep school or two-year college athletes by a college, athletics representative or its alumni groups; • Employment of a student-athlete at a rate higher then the wages paid for similar work; and • Payment to a student-athlete for work not performed.

Recruiting

Only coaches and athletics department staff may be involved in the recruiting process. Athletic representatives are prohibited from contacting a prospective student-athlete or members of his/her family by telephone, letter, e-mail, or in person for the purpose of encouraging participation in athletics at The University of Texas at San Antonio. This includes contacting prospective student-athletes on social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) The prohibition remains in effect even after the prospect signs a national letterof-intent (scholarship offer). You can do your part by forwarding names of any potential recruits to the UTSA coaching staffs.

Prospective Student-Athlete

A prospective student-athlete is a person who has started classes for the ninth grade. You can become a prospect even if you have not started the ninth grade, if a college gives you or your relatives any financial aid help or other benefits that it does not give others. Before a prospect can make an official visit to UTSA, he/she must present (1) a score from a PSAT, SAT or ACT test (through an official high school or testing agency), (2) an academic transcript, and (3) must register with the NCAA Eligibility Center and must be placed on the institution’s Institution Request List with the NCAA Eligibility Center.

Visiting UTSA Official Visit: An “official visit” is a visit paid in whole or in part by the university and cannot exceed 48 hours in length. A prospect can make a total of five official visits, with a limit of only one per university. Unofficial Visit: An “unofficial visit” is a visit made at the prospect’s own expense. The university may provide (a) three complimentary tickets to an on-campus athletics event in which the university’s team is competing and (b) transportation to view offcampus practice and competition sites within a 30-mile radius. Prospects can make as many unofficial visits as they want. More information concerning recruiting and initial eligibility can be found online at: ncaa.org goUTSA.com

C-USA maintains longtime relationships with the Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl and the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl in the central region as well as the Gildan New Mexico Bowl in the southwest and the Hawaii Bowl in the far West. C-USA has secondary agreements with two bowls also located right within the league’s footprint, giving teams the opportunities to participate in the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth, Texas, and the Independence Bowl in Shreveport, La. In these bowls, C-USA will have the opportunity to face opponents from the American Athletic, Big 12, Big Ten, Mid-American, Mountain West and Sun Belt Conferences.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF The Playoff During 2014-15 season, college football entered a new era when postseason playoffs began. The format is simple: top four teams, two semifinals played in bowl games, and a national championship game played in a different city each year. Each semifinal will be played during the New Year’s holiday with the national championship game in prime time on a Monday night at least a week later. The Selection Committee A selection committee will choose the four teams for the playoff based on their performance during the regular season, including, strength of schedule, head-to-head results, championships won, and other factors. The teams will be seeded so that No. 1 will play No. 4 in one semifinal and No. 2 will meet No. 3 in the other, with the winners advancing to the national championship game. The Rotation The semifinals will rotate among six different bowls, extending the experience to more fans. In the years when the bowls are not hosting semifinals, the bowls will feature eight other teams in four compelling matchups. For the 2016-17 season, the Capital One Orange (Dec. 30), Goodyear Cotton Bowl (Jan. 2), Rose Bowl presented by Northwestern Mutual (Jan. 2) and Allstate Sugar Bowl (Jan. 2) will host its regular bowl games, while the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl (Dec. 31) and Fiesta Bowl (Dec. 31) will host semifinals. The College Football Championship will be held on Monday, Jan. 9, in Tampa, Fla.

Roadrunners to kick off frank wilson era this fall

he Frank Wilson era is officially underway at UTSA. Introduced as the Roadrunners’ second head coach on Jan. 15, the New Orleans, La., native has brought energy, excitement and recruiting prowess to the Alamo City. Wilson takes over a program in only its sixth year that is looking to rebound from posting just seven wins over the past two seasons combined. The former LSU assistant head coach will have a potent mix of experienced veterans and promising newcomers at his disposal as he enters his first season at the helm. The Roadrunners return 41 letterwinners, including 14 starters, from last year’s team that finished 3-9 overall and posted a 3-5 ledger to finish tied for third in Conference USA’s West Division. Wilson will make his official debut as head coach on Sept. 3 against Alabama State at the Alamodome, which also marks the Roadrunners’ first season opener at home since the inaugural game on the same day in 2011. The following week, UTSA will travel to Fort Collins, Colo., to face Colorado State for the second straight season before returning home for a Friday night ESPN2 nationally-televised matchup against Arizona State on Sept. 16. The Roadrunners are slated to open C-USA action at Old Dominion on Sept. 24 before entering their only bye week of the campaign. UTSA will return to action when it hosts defending West Division champion Southern Miss on Oct. 8, the first of three home contests in four weeks. After traveling to Houston to face Rice on Oct. 15, the Birds will welcome UTEP for Homecoming on Oct. 22 and North Texas the following Saturday. A challenging three-game stretch on the road gets underway at Middle Tennessee on Nov. 5 and is followed by the program’s third visit to Ruston, La., to face Louisiana Tech on Nov. 12. UTSA will step out of league play to meet Texas A&M on Nov. 19 in College Station before closing the regular season at home against Charlotte on Nov. 26. The C-USA Championship Game between the West and East Division winners is slated for Dec. 3 at the home stadium of the team with the better league winning percentage. C-USA will have six bowl tie-ins and one secondary arrangement for 2016. Conference teams who attain bowl eligibility may be selected for the Gildan New Mexico (Dec. 17), R+L Carriers New Orleans (Dec. 17), Boca Raton (Dec. 20), Popeyes Bahamas (Dec. 23), Hawai’i (Dec. 24), Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas (Dec. 27) or Camping World Independence (Dec. 26/secondary) Bowls. Quarterbacks UTSA has been bitten by the injury bug at the quarterback position in each of the last two seasons, as four different signal callers have started games during that span. Dalton Sturm took over the reins after Blake Bogenschutz — who was forced to give up the sport in February due to lingering concussion-like symptoms — was injured late in the victory at UTEP. The junior from Goliad took every snap for the remaining seven contests and went on to pass for 1,354 yards and 13 touchdowns and rush for an additional 361 yards and a score. Wilson added senior graduate transfer Jared Johnson, who joined the program this summer, and the Grand Prairie native is expected to challenge for the starting spot. In his three seasons at Sam Houston State, Johnson — the 2015 Southland Conference Offensive Player of the Year — piled up 5,352 passing yards,

1,601 yards on the ground and 50 total touchdowns. A pair of redshirt freshmen — Manny Harris and Jaylon Henderson — will provide depth. Harris was an all-state performer at Copperas Cove High School, where he broke many of 2011 Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III’s school records. Henderson was a two-time all-district selection at Kingwood Park High School. Running Backs UTSA welcomes back one of the league’s top running backs in senior Jarveon Williams. The Converse Judson High School product became the first Roadrunner to top 1,000 yards in a season when he rushed for 1,042 and eight touchdowns on 173 carries (6.0 avg.) in 11 contests last fall. The preseason allconference pick registered four 100-yard games, including a school-record 186-yard performance in the overtime victory at Charlotte, en route Preseason all-conference running to earning honorable mention back Jarveon Williams became the all-conference accolades. Jalen Rhodes is a speedy first Roadrunner to top 1,000 yards in a season with 1,042 in 2015. backup at tailback. The sophomore from Rowlett rushed for 242 yards and three scores in his debut campaign. Tyrell Clay, a junior from Corpus Christi, and Corbin White, a senior from Nettleton, Miss., will add depth at the primary ballcarrying position. Blake Dean, a senior from Temple, and Halen Steward, a sophomore from St. Augustine, Fla., are slated to see the most snaps at the fullback spot. Wide Receivers Another skill position where UTSA is projected to be in good hands is at wide receiver. Kerry Thomas Jr. and JaBryce Taylor combined for 81 catches, 1,013 yards and seven touchdowns as two of the team’s top targets a season ago. Thomas Jr., a junior from College Station, hauled in a programrecord 52 receptions for 541 yards and four scores en route to being named honorable mention all-conference. Taylor, a senior from Lufkin, emerged as the Roadrunners’ top deep threat last fall with 472 yards and three TDs on 29 catches (16.3 avg.). Depth will come from veterans Aron Taylor, Brady Jones and Greg Campbell Jr., along with newcomers Dannon Cavil, a junior transfer from Oklahoma, and Marquez McNair, a junior college transfer who is the nephew of the late Steve McNair. Tight Ends UTSA will have a huge void to fill at tight end with the departure of David Morgan II, the program’s first-ever National Football

« 2 0 1 6 UT S A S e a s o n O u t l o o k » League (NFL) Draft pick. He caught 45 passes for 566 yards and five touchdowns en route to garnering second-team All-America and all-conference accolades last year. Trevor Stevens, a senior from Friendswood who has seen action in 33 career contests, earned the starting job coming out of spring practice. Senior graduate transfer Jordan Jones and junior transfer Shaq Williams, who redshirted last season, also are expected to play key roles at the position this fall. Offensive Linemen The big guys up front helped pave the way for UTSA’s first 1,000-yard rusher last fall, and more than half of that group is back this year. At center, Juan Perez-Isidoro returns with 16 career games under his belt. The junior has graded out at 92 and 88 percent in his last two seasons, respectively. At left tackle, Reed Darragh, a junior from Buda, is back after recording 46 knockdowns and grading out at 93 percent in his team-leading 862 snaps in 2015. The other returning starter along the line is right guard Kyle McKinney. The junior from Boerne graded out at 91 percent and had 26 knockdowns in 10 games last fall. Austin Pratt is slated to start at left guard. The senior from Sealy finished second on the squad with 48 knockdowns in 11 contests — seven starts — last year. Clayton Woods, a sophomore from Highland Park, and Stefan Beard, a junior transfer from Chicago, will provide depth at guard. At right tackle, senior LSU transfer Jevonte Domond is pegged to earn the starting nod. Depth at tackle will come from senior Gabriel Casillas. Defensive Linemen Despite losing a pair of defensive linemen who signed NFL freeagent contracts, UTSA returns a plethora of experience this year. At one end, Marcus Davenport is back after a sophomore campaign that saw him register 49 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss, four sacks, four quarterback hurries, three pass breakups and a pair of forced fumbles. The San Antonio Stevens High School product earned honorable mention all-conference accolades and is a preseason all-league selection this year. At the other end, Kevin Strong Jr. enjoyed a breakout season in 2015, as the sophomore from Cleveland, Texas, posted 31 stops, 6.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks and a pair of pass breakups. Depth on the edge is expected to come from Romario Napoles and Ben Kane. Inside, Baylen Baker, a redshirt freshman from Abilene, has the upper hand at defensive tackle, with Vontrell King-Williams also in the mix. At the other interior spot, Jonathan Tuiolosega is back for his senior season after turning in 29 tackles, including 2.5 for loss, last fall. He will be backed up by King Newton, a redshirt freshman from Southlake Carroll High School and the son of former NFL AllPro and Super Bowl Champion OT Nate Newton. Linebackers The Roadrunners employ two linebackers in their base alignment and must fill the void left by Drew Douglas, who finished his career as UTSA’s second all-time leading tackler (242). Josiah Tauaefa, a redshirt freshman from Lake Dallas High School, caught the coaches’ eyes in spring practice and has earned his way to the top of the depth chart at middle linebacker.

La’Kel Bass, a junior transfer who redshirted last fall, is slated to start at the other linebacker spot. Ronnie Feist, a senior graduate transfer from LSU who joined the team this summer, and Marcos Curry, a junior who recorded 74 tackles last season, will push for playing time. Defensive Backs The Roadrunners use five defensive backs — three safeties and two cornerbacks — in their base set. Two of the three starters at safety last fall are back in the form of senior strong safety Michael Egwuagu and junior free safety Nate Gaines. Egwuagu, a preseason all-conference choice, tallied 62 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, eight pass breakups and three interceptions on his way to honorable mention allconference laurels last season. Gaines, a Mesquite native, posted 76 stops, six PBUs and Preseason all-conference safety three picks last year despite Michael Egwuagu registered 62 missing a pair of contests. tackles, three interceptions and a The sophomore duo of C.J. pair of INT return TDs in 2015. Levine and Carl Austin III are expected to provide depth at those two positions, respectively. At the other strong safety spot, junior Chase Dahlquist is back from a redshirt season and expected to take over for Duke Wheeler, who set a program record with 62 solo tackles last fall. He will be pushed by Justin Chavez, a junior from Irving, and Justin Moore, a senior graduate transfer from LSU who has run track (hurdles) for the Tigers the past two years. UTSA will need to replace both starting cornerbacks from a year ago, including all-conference performer Bennett Okotcha. A quartet of players in juniors N’Keal Bailey and Aneas Henricks and sophomores JaColbie Butler and Stanley Dye Jr. all will compete for playing time along with late signee Devron Davis, a prized junior college transfer from Stockton, Calif. Special Teams UTSA returns both kickers, an experienced returner and its deep snapper this fall. Place-kicker Daniel Portillo drilled 10 field goals, including a long of 51, and made 27-of-32 extra-point attempts last season. The Pflugerville native also handled most kickoff duties and enters his junior campaign with 19 career touchbacks. Victor Falcon saw brief action as a walk-on freshman in 2015, booting nine touchbacks on 15 tries. Punter Yannis Routsas averaged 39.0 yards on 63 punts, including a long of 62, in his freshman season in 2015. He will be backed up by Portillo, who averaged 37.2 yards on four punts last year. Matt Bayliss, a junior from Tulsa, Okla., served as deep snapper in all 12 contests last fall and will be backed up by Clayton Woods. Brett Winnegan showed flashes of being a dangerous return man as a freshman last year. The Pearland native set a school record with 36 kickoff returns and 747 yards, including a long of 36. He also is penciled in to handle punt returns.

Head Coach First Season (Nicholls State ‘97) @CoachWilsonUTSA

rank Wilson was introduced as UTSA’s head coach on January 15, 2016.

Wilson brings more than a decade of coaching experience in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and a proven track record as a highly successful high school head coach to San Antonio. Widely considered one of the most valuable assistant coaches in college football, Wilson came to UTSA after a six-year stint as the running backs coach and recruiting coordinator at LSU from 2010-15, where he also served as associate head coach for his final four seasons with the Tigers. He also has been an assistant coach at Tennessee (2009), Southern Miss (2008) and Mississippi (2005-07). While at LSU, he was recognized as the nation’s top assistant coach at his position in 2011. Wilson also was named the 2011 Recruiter of the Year by Rivals.com, the 2014 NFL.com Top Recruiter in College Football and the 2015 Scout.com SEC Recruiter of the Year. As the recruiting coordinator at LSU, Wilson led the Tigers to back-toback top-five recruiting classes in 2014-15 among five total groups that ranked among the top 10 nationally. He served as the lead recruiter for a long list of prominent players, including Odell Beckham Jr., La’el Collins, Malachi Dupre, Jeremy Hill, Jarvis Landry, Tyrann Mathieu, Zach Mettenberger and the nation’s No. 1 overall recruit in 2014 in Leonard Fournette, a 2014 Freshman All-SEC honoree and consensus first team All-American a year later. Overall, Wilson has coached or recruited 25 individuals who have made it to the NFL. That list includes Beckham Jr., Collins, Hill, Landry, Mathieu and Mettenberger along with Lamin Barrow, Alfred Blue, Ego Ferguson, BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Jerald Hawkins, Kenny Hilliard, Anthony Johnson, Deion Jones, Kendrick Lewis, Terrance Magee, Ronald Martin, Dexter McCluster, Denarius Moore, Eric Reid, Stevan Ridley, Trai Turner, Mike Wallace, Spencer Ware and James Wright. In six seasons at LSU, Wilson developed six running backs that were selected in the NFL Draft, including first-team All-SEC performers in Fournette, Hill and Ridley. During his tenure, the Tigers posted a 61-17 overall record, captured the 2011 SEC Championship and appeared in the National Championship Game that same season. Under his guidance, LSU rushed for at least 200 yards 39 times, including 12 300-yard games. The Tigers also recorded 45 100-

From 2005-07, Wilson served as the running backs/assistant special teams coach at Mississippi, where he recruited prominent future NFL stars Kendrick Lewis and Mike Wallace.

Perry Walker, Wilson developed 22 players who earned Division I scholarships, including 11 in 2002 to rank as the nation’s largest high school class of D-I signees. The 2002 team defeated national-power John Curtis Christian School, 20-0, during the regular season, which snapped a 136-game district winning streak for John Curtis and marked the first time that team had failed to score in 303 consecutive games, a national record. Wilson spent three years as an assistant coach at Edna Karr High School, also in New Orleans, from 1997-2000. He served as offensive coordinator at Edna Karr during the 1999 season in which the team reached the Class 3A state finals and recorded its best statistical season on offense in the program’s history. Wilson got his start in coaching as a student assistant at his alma mater, Nicholls State, working with the running backs while he finished his degree. While in Thibodaux, Wilson helped coach the first 1,000yard rusher in school history and was part of the biggest turnaround in NCAA history at the time for the Colonels, who improved from 0-10 in 1995 to 8-2 in 1996. A three-year letterman at Nicholls State, Wilson earned honorable mention all-conference honors as a running back his sophomore year.

« M e e t T h e S ta f f » What They’re Saying About Frank Wilson “Frank has been a big part of what we’ve accomplished at LSU both on and off the field. He’s ready to be a head coach. He’s worked long and hard for this opportunity and I couldn’t be happier for Frank and his family. He’s going to do a great job and we are going to miss him.” — Les Miles, LSU head coach “Coaches and players gravitate to Frank Wilson. He was a part of my staff at Tennessee and I can tell you firsthand that he develops players as well as anyone in college football. UTSA just uncovered a leader who is special on many levels. People talk about how great of a recruiter he is, but he is just as strong of a leader.” — Lane Kiffin, Alabama offensive coordinator/ quarterbacks coach who was the head coach at Tennessee when Wilson was an assistant during the 2009 season

“I had the honor to play for and be recruited by a man who was so unselfish in his work and in his life that people were drawn to his efforts and commitment, which helped them become a man foremost and then a player. I speak firsthand for how he’s stayed in contact with players even after they have left his reach. They don’t make too many like him.” — Jarvis Landry, Miami Dolphins wide receiver who was recruited by Wilson and played at LSU from 201113 “Coach Frank Wilson changed my life. He gave a young kid from New Orleans a chance to compete and learn on a higher level. He opened the doors for so many of us Louisiana athletes and I’m just happy to see him making strides and becoming all that he can be. He is the true inspiration.” — Tyrann Mathieu, Arizona Cardinals safety who was recruited by Wilson and played at LSU from 2010-11

“Frank is detail-oriented and very knowledgeable. He’s a tremendous competitor and has a great smile about him, a great presence about him and he is relentless.” — Ed Orgeron, LSU defensive line coach who was the head coach at Mississippi when Wilson was an assistant from 2005-07 “Frank Wilson has been preparing for this day for years and there is no doubt in my mind that UTSA got a great young head coach that will inspire, teach and model what winning in life and football looks like. He is a special coach and friend that all of UTSA will soon come to love.” — Hugh Freeze, Mississippi head coach “Frank Wilson’s ability to reach and develop student-athletes is unparalleled in college football. He has been successful everywhere he has been because of his passion for young people, great work ethic and professionalism. He is an incredible football coach and an even better person. Coach Wilson will do a tremendous job as the head coach at UTSA.” — Kliff Kingsbury, Texas Tech head coach “It’s hard to put in words how much Frank Wilson means to me, not as a coach but as a man. It is very difficult nowadays to find a man with the integrity and loyalty that he displays on a day-in and day-out basis. It is an amazing thing to see someone who has put so much hard work in to finally have the opportunity that he so willingly deserves. It’s truly been a pleasure to say I have been coached by Frank, but more importantly to know him as family.” — Jeremy Hill, Cincinnati Bengals running back who was recruited and coached by Wilson at LSU from 2012-13 “Coach Wilson is one of the best coaches I’ve ever had. He is a man of integrity and honor and he holds true to his word. From day one, he always looked out for me. He’s a great coach, a great person and a great man. He is like family to me and I wish him much success in the future. I know he is going to do good things.” — Odell Beckham Jr., New York Giants wide receiver who was recruited by Wilson and played at LSU from 2011-13

Rollins comes to San Antonio from Tulane, where he spent nine seasons as secondary coach, including serving as co-defensive coordinator in 2015 and special teams coordinator in 2014. He played a key role in the development of three All-Americans and four NFL players in draft picks Lorenzo Doss and Taurean Nixon, as well as free agents Derrick Strozier and Jordan Sullen. In 2013, Rollins’ secondary was a big reason why the Green Wave made their first bowl appearance since the 2002 season. Tulane ranked second nationally in turnovers forced with 35, including 19 interceptions with 15 by the defensive backfield. Doss, an AllAmerica cornerback, picked off seven passes, returning a pair for touchdowns, and forced two fumbles. Additionally, Tulane allowed just 352.1 yards per game, which ranked 22nd in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). In 2014, Rollins helped lead the secondary to a combined 15 interceptions, seven fumble recoveries and a pair of forced fumbles, as the unit contributed to 22 of the team’s 28 takeaways, which ranked 21st nationally. Parry Nickerson led the Green Wave and all FBS freshmen with six picks and garnered Freshman All-America accolades. Rollins’ impact on Tulane’s secondary was immediate from the time he joined the staff prior to the 2008 campaign. In his first season in New Orleans, the group combined for 23 pass breakups, five interceptions, five forced fumbles and five recoveries. During the next four years, his defensive backs combined for 31 interceptions and 120 pass breakups while helping the Green Wave defense consistently rank near the top of Conference USA in most major statistical categories. Prior to his tenure at Tulane, Rollins was co-defensive coordinator and secondary coach at his alma mater, McNeese State, for two seasons (2005-06). He helped the Cowboys to a 23-10 record, two Southland Conference championships and a Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) playoff appearance in in his final season.

The Statesmen advanced to the 2010 NCAA Division II National Championship Game after winning their third Gulf South Conference title in four years with an 11-4 overall record. That came on the heels of a two-year stint as defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach at Tusculum. The Pioneers became an explosive and record-setting defensive unit under his direction. In 2007, Tusculum intercepted a programrecord 14 passes and it produced conference-leading marks in sacks and forced turnovers en route to an appearance in the NCAA Division II playoffs. Golding has tutored six All-Americans during his 10-year coaching career, including 2012 FCS Defensive Player of the Year and 2013 second-round National Football League draft pick Robert Alford, who was a cornerback under Golding during his senior season.

Lynn Hickey

Associate Vice President/Director of Athletics Now in her second decade of leading the UTSA Department of Intercollegiate Athletics, Lynn Hickey has made student-athlete welfare one of her top priorities while leading the Roadrunners to new heights. Under Hickey’s direction since 2000, UTSA has captured three conference commissioner’s cups and a pair of league allsports trophies while consistently winning both team and individual academic and athletics awards in all 17 sports sponsored by the university. Additionally, Hickey has helped pave the path for UTSA’s entrance into Conference USA, a Group of Five league and member of the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). Her long-term goal of taking the department to that level was realized when the league extended an invitation on May 4, 2012. The Roadrunners moved all 17 sports into C-USA on July 1, 2013. Hickey first guided UTSA to the upper echelon of NCAA Division I Athletics when the university received an invitation to join the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) on Nov. 10, 2010. In its first and only year in the conference, the department claimed the 2012-13 WAC Commissioner’s Cup. UTSA spent the first 12 years of Hickey’s tenure in the Southland Conference, where it captured 37 team championships, a pair of Commissioner’s Cups and two All-Sports Trophies under her watch. A primary reason UTSA has been able to keep pace in the ever-changing conference realignment landscape has been Hickey’s foresight to add three sports during her tenure and help best position the department for an invitation. Women’s golf and women’s soccer were added in 2005 and 2006, respectively. Then on Dec. 18, 2008, UTSA’s Athletics Initiative Business Plan was approved by the UT System Board of Regents, granting permission to start a football program. The addition of football has helped bring unprecedented regional and national exposure to the university and it has built campus spirit and community support. UTSA set an NCAA startup program record when 56,743 fans packed the Alamodome for its inaugural game, a 31-3 victory against Northeastern State on Sept. 3, 2011. The Roadrunners also set a startup program standard for average home attendance that season with 35,521. In just five seasons, UTSA has drawn more than 867,000 fans to its home games. Hickey also has led the charge for UTSA and its hosting of 14 NCAA Championship events since her arrival to the Alamo City. The university has served as host institution for the 2001 NCAA Men’s Basketball Midwest Regional, 2002 Women’s Final Four, 2003 Men’s Basketball South Regional, 2004 Men’s Final Four, 2005 Women’s Volleyball Championship, 2006 Women’s Basketball South Regional, 2007 Men’s Basketball South Regional, 2008 Men’s Final Four, 2010 Women’s Final Four, 2011 Men’s Basketball Southwest Regional, 2011 Women’s Volleyball Championship, 2014 Men’s Basketball Second & Third Rounds, 2014 Men’s Golf San Antonio Regional and 2015 Women’s Golf San Antonio Regional. In November 2014, the NCAA announced that UTSA will host the 2018 Men’s Final Four. Hickey also has been a member of numerous national committees and organizations and has received many honors while leading UTSA Athletics.

In 2007, Hickey was named to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee, one of the most prestigious appointments in all of collegiate athletics. The 10-member committee oversees administration of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship, including the selection and seeding of teams for the tournament. Hickey, whose five-year term expired in 2012, became just the second female ever selected to the committee, joining Charlotte Athletics Director Judy Rose, who served from 1999-2003. Hickey was selected as President of the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators in 2015-16 after serving on the Executive Committee the previous year. Hickey was named the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators 2005 Division I-AAA Administrator of the Year. In June 2006, she was tabbed the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics/GeneralSports TURF Systems Division I-AAA West Region AD of the Year. The San Antonio Express-News picked her as its 2010 Sportswoman of the Year and she also was selected to and completed the Masters Leadership Program of San Antonio and Bexar County. In September 2011, she received the ATHENA Leadership award from the North San Antonio Chamber of Commerce. In being named the fourth athletics director in UTSA history, Hickey assumed the lead athletics role at one of the youngest NCAA Division I universities in the country (UTSA began athletics competition in 1981). The only female Division I athletics director that oversees both men’s and women’s sports in the state of Texas, she served as President of the Southland from 2002-04 and as the league’s representative to the NCAA Championship/Competition Cabinet. Hickey also was a member of the Women’s Basketball Rules Committee from 2003-06, spending the final two years of that term as chair. Hickey came to San Antonio from Texas A&M, where she served as senior associate athletics director/senior woman administrator from 1994-2000. Her responsibilities included event management and marketing and promotions for 16 of the university’s 19 Division I sports. She also represented the Big 12 Conference as a member of the NCAA Championship Cabinet. From 1984-94, Hickey served as Texas A&M’s head women’s basketball coach. She directed the 1993-94 team to the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16, becoming at the time the lowest-seeded team to ever reach that milestone. Texas A&M finished the year ranked No. 19 in the CNN/USA Today Top 25 poll. Following the season, Hickey relinquished her coaching duties to accept the promotion to senior associate athletics director. She finished her coaching career with an overall mark of 279-167 in 15 seasons. Before her stint at A&M, Hickey was head women’s basketball coach at Kansas State from 1979-84. She averaged more than 23 wins per season in posting a 125-39 (.762) record and she led the Wildcats to five consecutive national tournament berths. She was inducted into the Kansas State Athletics Hall of Fame in September 2004. A native of Welch, Okla., Hickey graduated summa cum laude from Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Ark., with a bachelor’s degree in education. She was an All-American for OBU’s nationally-ranked basketball team and a member of the USA National Team in 1973. Hickey and her husband, Bill, have a daughter, Lauren Hickey-Garcia.

« Game 2 — Saturday, Sept. 12 » Kansas State 30, UTSA 3 San Antonio, Texas (Alamodome)

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Anu Solomon threw four touchdown passes to help No. 22 Arizona beat UTSA, 42-32, but the Wildcats suffered a big blow when All-America linebacker Scooby Wright went out early with a left knee injury. Arizona struggled defensively, was uneven on offense and had trouble putting away the Roadrunners at home. Those areas can be fixed, but losing Wright could hurt a lot worse. Wright, who swept the major defensive player of the year awards last season, went out in the first quarter, tried to return and went back out after one play, but he spent the second half in street clothes, walking with a cane. Even with Wright out, Arizona’s defense struggled. The Wildcats scored two defensive touchdowns, but gave up 525 total yards to UTSA, which returned just two offensive starters. The offense was good at times, sputtered others, finished with a pedestrian-for-them 392 total yards. Solomon had 229 yards on 22-of26 passing and Nick Wilson ran for 97 yards on 22 carries. Led by Blake Bogenschutz, UTSA picked apart Arizona’s defense throughout the night. A redshirt freshman, Bogenschutz shook off throwing an interception for a touchdown on his first pass to throw for 332 yards and two touchdowns on 25-of-43 passing. The Roadrunners missed some chances, though, and their two turnovers were immediately turned into points, leading to a third consecutive loss to Arizona. The Roadrunners have given Arizona a bit of trouble over the past couple of seasons, including last year’s 26-23 setback at the Alamodome. This year, the Wildcats have most of their skill players back on offense and UTSA returned six starters overall, the fewest in the Football Bowl Subdivision. No surprise then that the Roadrunners got off to a shaky start. Bogenschutz had his first pass intercepted by Anthony Lopez and returned for 23 yards for a touchdown. UTSA’s Brett Winnegan then took the ensuing kickoff 102 yards for a touchdown, but that was called back for a block below the waist. The Roadrunners also had a 17-play drive lead to no points when Daniel Portillo missed a 33-yard field goal and were behind 14-0 after Solomon hit David Richards on a 6-yard touchdown pass. Yet they kept churning out yards, particularly after Wright went out. He went down in the first quarter, tried to return the next series, but lasted one play before heading to the bench to wrap ice around his knee. Bogenschutz set up Portillo for a 19-yard field goal, then threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to David Morgan II. Even after Solomon ducked and dodged his way through UTSA’s defense to set up a 21-yard touchdown pass to Johnny Jackson, the Roadrunners still fought back. Portillo hit a 33-yard field goal and Bogenschutz followed with a 2-yard touchdown run just before halftime, pulling UTSA to within one at 21-20. UTSA had a 328-202 advantage in total yards in the first half. The Wildcats got off to a quick start after intermission, going up 35-20 after Solomon hit Nate Phillips on a 4-yard touchdown pass and Jamar Allah scooped up Aaron Grubb’s fumble for a 22-yard touchdown return later in the quarter. Bogenschutz hit Aron Taylor on a 32-yard touchdown pass, but Solomon found Cayleb Jones for a 4-yard score to push the lead to 42-26. Jalen Rhodes 16-yard run midway through the final quarter closed out the scoring.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Making his first career start at quarterback on any level, Joe Hubener led Kansas State to a 30-3 victory against UTSA on Saturday afternoon at the Alamodome. The victory snapped Kansas State’s seven-game losing streak at indoor facilities. The Wildcats’ last victory indoors was 1993 against Minnesota in the now-defunct Metrodome. Hubener had a career-high 243 yards passing, completing 12-of-23 attempts, and also rushed for 58 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries. He is taking over for Jesse Ertz, who suffered a seasonending knee injury on the third play of Kansas State’s opener last week. UTSA’s defense appeared to fluster Hubener early, sending multiple defenders on blitzes. The 6-foot-5 junior frantically called for a hurried snap early in the opening drive and was forced to call timeout on the same possession to prevent a delay. Hubener walked out of the pocket shaking his head following that timeout as Kansas State running back Charles Jones tapped his thumb and fingers together to mimic talking. Hubener settled in after the initial drive, guiding Kansas State (2-0) to three straight scoring drives to open the second half. The Wildcats amassed 418 total yards. Kansas State’s defense struggled early, too, before stifling UTSA’s frenetic offense. The Roadrunners (0-2) marched 41 yards on six plays to open the game before incurring consecutive false start penalties. The break allowed the Wildcats to catch their breath and gain their bearing against the no-huddle offense. UTSA settled for a 51-yard field goal from Daniel Portillo. Kansas State did not allow another score and allowed just 37 yards rushing on 25 carries. Wildcats linebacker Will Davis batted down a pass at the goal line intended for Triston Crossland on fourth-and-goal at Kansas State’s 2-yard line late in the second half. Roadrunners senior David Morgan III set up the attempt by carrying Nate Jackson a few yards on an 8-yard reception after the 5-foot-11 defender jumped on the back of the 6-foot-4 tight end. Coming off a 42-32 loss to No. 22 Arizona in which they gained 525 total yards, UTSA was limited to 229 yards by Kansas State.

« Game 4 — Saturday, Sept. 26 » Colorado State 33, UTSA 31 San Antonio, Texas (Alamodome)

STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Oklahoma State forced seven turnovers, all of which led to points, and the No. 25 Cowboys rolled to a 69-14 victory against UTSA on Saturday. Mason Rudolph completed 17-of-23 passes for 280 yards and two touchdowns and Chris Carson rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries for Oklahoma State (3-0). Blake Bogenschutz was 8-of-13 for 58 yards and a touchdown for UTSA (0-3), but he also fumbled twice and threw two interceptions before he was taken out of the game late in the second quarter. Third-string quarterback Dalton Sturm had an immediate impact, accounting for 91 yards in the final 5:25 of the second quarter. Overall, Sturm completed 7-of-13 passes for 109 yards and ran for 47 yards on 10 carries. Jarveon Williams gained a seasonhigh 90 yards and a touchdown on 17 rushes. The seven turnovers and 69 points allowed were opponent records against UTSA. The Roadrunners had six turnovers against San Jose State in 2012 and gave up 59 points against Houston the following season. Fumbles by Bogunschutz on UTSA’s first two possessions helped Oklahoma State take a 14-0 lead just 2:27 into the game. Devante Averette’s 6-yard fumble return made it 7-0 only 45 seconds in, and Carson’s 26-yard run made it 14-0 two plays after Jordan Burton recovered the ball on the UTSA 37. After gaining 42 yards on 15 carries in his previous game, Carson nearly matched that, gaining all 37 yards on that possession, in two plays. An interception later in the first quarter eventually led to Ben Grogan’s 24-yard field goal, making it 17-0 with 2:25 remaining. The Roadrunners pulled to 17-7 early in the second quarter when Bogunschutz connected on a 4-yard touchdown pass to Kerry Thomas. A fourth UTSA turnover led to another Oklahoma State touchdown when Kevin Peterson’s interception gave the Cowboys the ball on the UTSA 30. Six plays later, Carson’s 1-yard TD run made it 24-7 with 5:25 left in the second.

SAN ANTONIO — Jarveon Williams rushed for a program-record 170 yards and two touchdowns on just 13 carries, but Colorado State’s Jasen Oden ran for 143 of his own and Nick Stevens threw for three scres, as the Rams held off UTSA by a score of 33-31 on Saturday night in front of 24,705 fans at the Alamodome. The back-and-forth affair saw the lead change hands three different times and Colorado State (2-2) rallied from 17-9 deficit with 21 unanswered points in the middle two quarters. The Roadrunners (0-4) jumped in front two-and-a-half minutes into the contest when Jalen Rhodes capped a sevenplay, 78-yard drive with a 13-yard touchdown. That play was set up by Blake Bogenschutz’s 42-yard quarterback draw and UTSA ran the ball five times for 67 yards during the game’s opening possession. Colorado State quickly answered when Stevens connected with Xavier Williams on a 34-yard scoring pass three minutes later and the Rams then took their first lead of the night when Roadrunners right guard William Cavanaugh was called for holding in the end zone, which resulted in a safety. Daniel Portillo’s 36-yard field goal with 13:21 remaining in the second quarter put UTSA back on top, 10-9, and Bogenschutz then hooked up with David Morgan II from six yards out following a Justin Chavez blocked punt to extend the advantage to eight. The Rams drew to within one on Oden’s 2-yard run to paydirt and the Roadrunners held onto a slim 17-16 edge going into halftime. Colorado State came out of the locker room throwing and Stevens, who finished the night 15-of-28 for 255 yards, connected with Deionte Gaines and Rashard Higgins for scoring tosses of 13 and 38 yards, respectively, to retake the lead for good. Williams’ 13-yard touchdown run with 3:07 left in the third quarter brought UTSA to within six at 30-24, but Wyatt Bryan’s 21-yard field goal at the 10:53 mark gave the Rams a two-possession advantage at 33-24. Twenty-five seconds later, Williams ripped off a school-record 85-yard TD run, but the Roadrunners could get no closer and Colorado State was able to run out the final five-and-a-half minutes after UTSA punted on 4th-and-14 from the Rams’ 38-yard line.

« Game 6 — Saturday, Oct. 10 » Louisiana Tech 34, UTSA 31 San Antonio, Texas (Alamodome)

EL PASO — Jarveon Williams rushed for 133 yards and added 45 more receiving, as UTSA opened Conference USA play with a 25-6 victory at UTEP on Saturday night at the Sun Bowl. The Roadrunners (1-4, 1-0 C-USA) turned a slim 3-0 halftime lead into a 19-point win thanks to a strong running game and a season-high five takeways by the defense, two of which were returned for scores. Williams, who set the single-game record for rushing attempts with 28, now has 303 yards (7.4 avg.) and three touchdowns on the ground over the last two games and 503 for the season. A low-scoring first half that was delayed by 36 minutes in the second quarter due to lightning saw UTSA take a 3-0 lead on a 30-yard field goal by Daniel Portillo midway through the stanza. After the second lightning delay of the night with 11 seconds left in the opening half turned into intermission upon mutual agreement from both head coaches, the Roadrunners exploded for 15 points and 175 yards of offense in the third quarter. With the Miners pinned at the 2-yard line, Drew Douglas tackled Kavika Johnson in the end zone for the Roadrunners’ second safety in program history and a 5-0 lead early in the third. UTSA then marched 78 yards on just four plays on the ensuing possession. Williams had runs of 16 and 19 yards before punching it in from 25 to push the advantage to 12-0. The Roadrunners added to their lead when Michael Egwuagu picked off a Ryan Metz pass and returned it 40 yards to paydirt to make it 18-0 with 10:06 left in the third. It marked the fifth pick-six in UTSA history and the first since Triston Wade took one back 82 yards against Tulsa on Nov. 2, 2013. UTEP (2-3, 0-1 C-USA) got on the board early in the final quarter when Metz found Jaquan White in the corner of the end zone on a 25-yard connection. The Miners went for two and the pass attempt was knocked down, making it 18-6 with 12:34 left to play. UTSA put the finishing touch on the program’s third win in four all-time league openers (all on the road) when Nate Gaines picked off his second pass of the night at the 26yard line and then lateraled to Egwuagu, who went the remaining 15 yards and dove into the end zone with 1:47 on the clock. Gaines and Douglas led the defense with nine tackles apiece, while Egwuagu added eight. UTSA held the Miners to 275 yards of offense (59 rush/216 pass) and registered a season-best nine three-and-outs to go along with the five turnovers and safety.

SAN ANTONIO — Dalton Sturm tied a program record with four touchdown passes, including three in the second half, but Jonathan Barnes booted a 32-yard field goal with 10 seconds left to push Louisiana Tech past UTSA, 34-31, on Saturday night at the Alamodome. Sturm, who also rushed for 34 yards, went 18-of-27 through the air for 227 yards to go along with his four scores to lead the Roadrunners (1-5, 1-1 C-USA). In the final half, the sophomore from Goliad completed 13-of-18 attempts for 186 yards and three touchdowns. David Morgan II tied the program record he shares with Aaron Grubb with nine catches for 85 yards and a pair of scores. In his first start, JaBryce Taylor also added two touchdown receptions and nearly cracked the century mark with 99 yards of his own. Both teams failed to hold onto the ball in the early going as the first 10 points for each squad came after a turnover. The Bulldogs (4-2, 2-1 C-USA) opened the scoring with a pick-six and added a 19yard field goal following another interception. Meanwhile, UTSA turned a pair of interceptions by Trevor Baker and Michael Egwuagu into points with a 25-yard field goal from Daniel Portillo and a 10-yard touchdown reception by Morgan II. However, Louisiana Tech broke the 10-10 tie with a pair of touchdowns, including a 2-yard scoring pass from Jeff Driskel to Jarred Craft with just eight seconds to play in the second quarter for a 24-10 cushion at the half. Sturm drove the Roadrunners down the field on the opening drive of the second half and found Taylor for a 38-yard scoring connection on 4th-and-5 to trim the deficit to 24-17. But the Bulldogs answered with an eight-play, 71-yard drive that was capped by a Ricky Jones 3-yard plunge to regain the two-score lead. Trailing 31-17, the UTSA offense again cut the deficit in half with an 11-play, 60-yard drive. Sturm completed five passes during the possession and found Morgan II in the corner of the end zone for his second touchdown reception of the night. UTSA opened the fourth quarter with a quick five-play drive that ended when Taylor took Sturm’s slant pass 57 yards to paydirt with 13:38 remaining. The strike was the Roadrunners’ longest scoring toss of the season and Portillo’s extra-point knotted the score at 31. However, Louisiana Tech forced punts on the next two UTSA possessions and the Bulldogs took over at their own 22-yard line with 4:28 to play. The visitors drained all but 10 seconds from the clock and Barnes’ 22-yarder provided the final margin..

HATTIESBURG, Miss. — Jarveon Williams rushed for 88 yards and broke the UTSA single-season rushing record, but Nick Mullens threw for 343 yards and a pair of touchdowns to lead Southern Miss to a 32-10 victory against UTSA on Saturday night at Roberts Stadium. Mullens was 23-of-31 through the air, as the Golden Eagles (4-3, 2-1 C-USA) piled up an opponent season-high 556 yards of offense (213 rush/343 pass). Williams gained his 88 yards on 16 carries (5.5 avg) and surpassed David Glasco’s previous school standard of 570 set last year on a 47-yard run in the third quarter. The junior from Converse Judson now has 618 yards this season. The Roadrunners (1-6, 1-2 C-USA) came up with three takeaways in the first half — two interceptions and a fumble recovery — but could not capitalize. Meanwhile, the Golden Eagles racked up 350 yards of offense before halftime en route to a 16-0 lead. Mullens found Michael Thomas deep over the middle for a 47-yard scoring connection on the home team’s fourth play from scrimmage to help stake Southern Miss to a 7-0 lead. The Golden Eagles added three field goals from Stephen Brauchle, including 22- and 20-yarders in the final two minutes for the 16-0 advantage at intermission. Southern Miss added to its lead on the first drive of the second half after a 5-yard touchdown pass from Mullens to D.J. Thompson capped an 11-play, 75-yard scoring march. Brauchle tacked on a 39-yard field goal midway through the third quarter to make it 26-0. UTSA got on the board on its next possession. Williams broke loose for on his record-breaking run to key an eight-play, 64-yard drive that was capped by a 1-yard touchdown pass from Dalton Sturm to Kerry Thomas Jr. The UTSA defense came up with its fourth turnover on Bennett Okotcha’s second interception of the night near midfield. That led to a 30-yard field goal by Daniel Portillo that pulled the visitors to within two possessions at 26-10. The Golden Eagles answered on their next possession. Facing third-and-four at the 31-yard line, Mullens avoided a blitz and hit Jalen Richard on a 53-yard catch and run down to the UTSA 16. Four plays later, Richard punched it in from one yard out to provide the final margin. Duke Wheeler led the defense with 11 tackles, while Drew Douglas added 10. Michael Egwuagu had five stops to go along with his third interception in the last three contests.

DENTON — UTSA’s offense accumulated 475 total yards and tied a school record with 31 first downs, but North Texas rushed for 267 yards en route to a 30-23 victory against UTSA on Saturday night at Apogee Stadium. Jarveon Williams sparked UTSA’s third drive with a 21-yard scamper to the Mean Green 44-yard line and finished with a 3-yard touchdown rush around right end to give the Roadrunners an early 7-0 lead in the first quarter. DaMarcus Smith then ripped off a 40-yard run to get the Mean Green (1-7, 1-4 C-USA) to UTSA’s 21-yard line. Marcos Curry then forced the first turnover of the game for the Roadrunners with a hit on Smith, who fumbled the ball through the back of the UTSA end zone, giving the ball back to the visitors via a touchback. Following a Roadrunners punt, Tre Johnson returned the ball 30 yards to the opposing 40-yard line with an extra 15 yards tacked on due to a face mask penalty. A defensive holding infraction kept the North Texas drive alive and that was followed by Jeffrey Wilson’s 6-yard touchdown dash to tie the game at seven. Capping a 14-play 76-yard drive, Daniel Portillo tacked on three points with a 24yard field goal for the Roadrunners (1-7, 1-3 C-USA) with a minute left in the half for a 10-7 advantage. North Texas gained a 14-10 advantage with 5:58 left in the third quarter when a Jalen Rhodes fumble led to a 44-yard Mean Green scoop and score from free safety Kishawn McClain. Tyrell Clay punched in UTSA’s second touchdown of the night from four yards out to cap a 12-play, 83-yard drive to the Roadrunners the lead once again at 17-14. On the ensuing possession, Wilson toted the ball for 27 yards inside the UTSA 10 and a Willy Ivery 5-yard touchdown run helped the home side reclaim the lead, 21-17. Dalton Sturm helped the Roadrunners answer on the following drive with a 1-yard pass to Halen Steward, which made the score 23-21. However, the point after touchdown attempt by Portillo was blocked by UNT’s Austin Orr and Chad Davis returned it for a two-point conversion, knotting the score at 23-all. Smith dashed 54 yards on the next drive and put the Mean Green on top for good with a 1-yard scoring dive. UTSA was unable to march down the field with 2:13 left in the quarte and that secured the Mean Green’s first victory against the Roadrunners. Sturm completed 27-of-41 passes for 245 yards and added 78 yards on the ground on 21 carries. Kerry Thomas Jr. tied a school record with nine receptions for 75 yards. Defensively, Jason Neill posted two sacks and nine tackles and Duke Wheeler led the team with 10 stops, which was his third consecutive outing in double figures.

SAN ANTONIO — UTSA produced 424 yards of offense, but it was not enough as Old Dominion churned out 548 en route to a 36-31 victory in Conference USA action on Saturday night at the Alamodome. David Washington completed 29-of-48 passes for an opponent-record 378 yards and two touchdowns to spearhead the Monarchs’ (4-5, 2-3 C-USA) offensive attack. His two favorite targets —Jonathan Duhart and Zach Pascal — hauled in an opponent-record 160 and 146 yards, respectively. The Roadrunners (1-8, 1-4 C-USA) stormed out to a 14-3 lead after one quarter in front of the Homecoming crowd. Dalton Sturm sparked a 12-play, 80-yard scoring drive with a 13-yard dart to Jarvis Taylor over the middle, later utilizing his legs to put the offense in scoring position with a 22-yard scamper to the ODU 9. Tyrell Clay punched the ball in from 1-yard line, giving UTSA the early lead, 7-0. On the ensuing possession, Washington heaved a 42-yard pass to Pascal to the UTSA 22-yardline to help set up a Chris Kirtly 38-yard field goal that put the visitors on the board. The Roadrunners took advantage of their field position following a failed ODU onside kick attempt. Sturm marched the Roadrunners downfield completing a 15-yard pass to Kerry Thomas Jr. The drive was cultivated with a 6-yard strike to Aaron Grubb for the 14-3 lead. ODU answered with a pair of Kirtley field goals to cut the deficit to 14-9 with 5:52 left in the first half. Two minutes later, the Monarchs took their first lead of the evening on an 8-yard touchdown reception by Duhart, as ODU scored 13 unanswered points to take a 16-14 lead into the locker room. Ray Lawry, who rushed for 103 yards on 23 carries, helped extend the ODU lead to 23-14 with a 3-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, but UTSA responded. Following a Satchel Ziffer 11-yard punt, Tyrell Clay completed a 31-yard halfback pass to JaBryce Taylor down to the ODU 4-yard line and then scored on the next play to help pull the home side within 23-21 with 18 seconds left in the third stanza. The Monarchs pushed the advantage back out to nine on a 4-yard touchdown scamper by Lawry on the first drive fo the final frame. UTSA again cut into the ODU lead when Sturm hit Grubb on a 25-yard TD pass and the Roadrunners moved in front, 31-30, on a 39-yard field goal by Daniel Portillo with 7:21 left. Old Dominion quickly answered with a 40-yard catch and run along the right sideline to the end zone by Duhart to recapture the lead, 36-31. UTSA had two final chances to go ahead, but came up short on fourth downs twice as the Monarchs held on for the five-point victory. Sturm finished with 252 yards and a pair of scores through the air on 25-of-37 passing. Taylor caught seven for 85 yards, while Grubb and Thomas Jr. had six receptions apiece. Duke Wheeler led the defense with 13 tackles, his fourth straight game with doubledigit tackles, while Drew Douglas added 11 stops.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Jarveon Williams rushed for a schoolrecord 186 yards and Daniel Portillo kicked a 22-yard field goal in the first overtime to lift UTSA to a 30-27 win against Charlotte on Saturday afternoon at Jerry Richardson Stadium. Williams rushed for 155 of his yards after halftime, including a 68-yarder that helped kick start an offense that was held to 83 yards in the first half. It marked the third 100-yard rushing game of the season for the junior from Converse Judson and the 10th in program history. The Roadrunners (2-8, 2-4) found themselves trailing by four in the fourth quarter. On third-and-10, UTSA quarterback Dalton Sturm scrambled to his right to avoid the rush and hit Aaron Grubb for a 26-yard touchdown pass. The extra point gave UTSA a 2724 lead with just under eight minutes remaining. Charlotte chewed up the next 6:45 off the clock with a 16-play drive that ended with a game-tying 37-yard field goal by Blake Brewer. UTSA got the ball back with 1:11 left to play and drove to the Charlotte 35-yard line, but a 52-yard field goal attempt by Victor Falcon sailed wide left as time expired in regulation. Playing their first overtime game since a 17-14 victory against Georgia State during the inaugural 2011 season, the Roadrunners came up with a defensive stop on the 49ers’ first possession when Nate Gaines picked off a Brooks Barden pass in the end zone. On the ensuing possession, UTSA used a strong ground game to move the ball down to the 5-yard line. Portillo then drilled his first career game-winning field goal to give the Roadrunners their first win since Oct. 3. The game was scoreless for the first 27 and a half minutes until Charlotte got on the board on an 8-yard touchdown pass from Matt Johnson to Richard Murphy late in the second quarter. The 49ers had a chance to extend their lead after their third interception of the day gave them the ball at the UTSA 15. However, a fake field goal attempt rush came up short and the score remained 7-0 at the intermission. The Roadrunners struck quickly to start the second half. Williams broke loose down the right sideline for 68 yards to set up an 8-yard TD scamper by Jalen Rhodes. That capped a three-play, 91-yard drive that took just 1:11 off the clock. Charlotte answered with a 75-yard scoring march that was capped by an 18-yard touchdown pass from Barden to Murphy. UTSA responded with another quick drive, this one covering 67 yards in just five plays capped with a 24-yard scamper by Williams. The extra point knotted the score at 14-14. The Roadrunners took their first lead of the afternoon when Sturm found Kerry Thomas Jr. open in the end zone from eight yards out, one of his school-record 10 catches. However, the extra-point attempt bounced off the left upright, making it 20-14. The 49ers countered on their next possession, as Johnson hit Trent Bostick down the right sideline for a 42-yard scoring strike. The PAT was good, making it 21-20 with 2:08 left in the third quarter. Brewer extended Charlotte’s lead to 24-20 with a 41-yard field goal early in the final stanza, setting up the wild finish. Thomas tied a school record for catches in a game with nine, the second time he has done that this season, for 56 yards, while Grubb hauled in five passes for 48. Duke Wheeler led the defense with 14 tackles, including a school-record 11 solo stops. Drew Douglas addd 11 tackles, while Gaines and Bennett Okotcha had an interception apiece.

« Game 12 — Saturday, Nov. 28 » Middle Tennessee 42, UTSA 7 San Antonio, Texas (Alamodome)

SAN ANTONIO — Jarveon Williams rushed for 163 yards to become UTSA’s first-ever 1,000-yard rusher and that helped UTSA beat Rice, 34-24, on Saturday night at the Alamodome. Williams’ fourth 100-yard game of the season helped the Roadrunners (3-8, 3-4 C-USA) to their first-ever win against the Owls (4-7, 2-5 C-USA) and their first home triumph of the year. The junior from Converse eclipsed the 1,000yard mark in the third quarter and now has 1,042 for the season and 1,493 for his career. He also reached paydirt twice to tie Evans Okotcha’s school record of eight rushing touchdowns in a season. Defensively, Jason Neill racked up two sacks and nine total tackles en route to setting single-season records for sacks (8.5) and tackles for loss (11). Marcus Davenport recorded a career-high 10 stops, including a pair of sacks and three tackles for loss, one pass breakup and a key forced fumble that was recovered by Marcos Curry in the first half and led to UTSA’s fourth touchdown of the night. Drew Douglas also recorded 10 tackles, while Bennett Okotcha and Mauricio Sanchez had an interception apiece, with Okotcha’s tying him for the school’s single-season record of four. Williams accumulated 99 yards and both scores in the first half, including a 78-yard scamper midway through the second quarter that gave the home team the lead for good at 21-17 after rallying from an early 10-0 deficit. UTSA added to its lead before halftime when Dalton Sturm kept on a bootleg around left end for a 1-yard touchdown run after Davenport’s forced fumble on a sack that was recovered by Marcos Curry set up the Roadrunners at the Rice 20-yard line. After forcing two straight three-and-outs to start the second half, the Owls pulled to within 28-24 when Darik Dillard snuck into the end zone from three yards out to finish out an eight-play, 46-yard scoring drive. UTSA provided the final margin late in the third when Sturm connected with Morgan II on a 19-yard touchdown pass. That score gave the senior tight end sole possession of the school’s single-season receiving TD record and it capped a seven-play, 96-yard drive that also featured a 32-yard connection from Sturm to Morgan II. Sturm finished with 189 yards on 9-of-13 passing and the sophomore from Goliad added 50 yards on the ground. Morgan II had three catches for 76 yards, while Thomas Jr. added to his single-season receptions record with three more for 74 yards to give him 50 for his sophomore campaign. Rice got on the board first with a 45-yard field goal by Hayden Tobola on the game’s opening possession. Driphus Jackson then hit Nate German with a 58-yard bomb with 5:51 left in the first quarter to push the Owls’ lead to 10. On the ensuing drive, Williams capped UTSA’s first scoring drive with a 1-yard run after Sturm hit JaBryce Taylor and David Morgan II with 25-yard pass plays. Okotcha’s interception helped set up the next score. Thomas Jr. hauled in a 23-yard pass from Sturm over the middle and in the end zone to put the Roadrunners up, 14-10, early in the second stanza. The Owls answered, after Zach Wright hauled in a 26-yard touchdown pass from Jackson made it 17-14 in favor of the visitors.

SAN ANTONIO — Jarveon Williams rushed for 163 yards to become UTSA’Brent Stockstill passed for 257 yards and a touchdown to help Middle Tennessee down UTSA, 42-7, in the Roadrunners’ season finale on Saturday afternoon at the Alamodome. Dalton Sturm threw for 140 yards and a touchdown for the Roadrunners (3-9, 3-5 C-USA), while Tyrell Clay made his first career start — UTSA’s 23rd first-time starter this season — and he rushed for a career-high 71 yards on 14 carries, including a career-long 31-yarder in the first quarter. JaBryce Taylor hauled in four passes from Sturm for 70 yards and the team’s only score. The Blue Raiders (7-5, 6-2 C-USA) rushed for four touchdowns, led by a pair from Shane Tucker, and totaled 456 yards of offense as they scored the first 42 points of the afternoon. Stockskill led the way by completing 24 of his 30 attempts, including a 7-yard scoring toss to Terry Pettis. The visitors got on the board first on a 14-yard scamper around left end by Tucker. The extra point by Cody Clark made it 7-0 with 4:20 left in the opening stanza. Middle Tennessee tacked on a pair of scores in the second quarter to push its lead to 21-0 at the half. Jordan Parker capped a 13-play, 75-yard scoring march with a 7-yard scamper up the middle to paydirt. On the Blue Raiders’ next possession, Stockstill found Pettis open in the end zone from seven yards out to put the finishing touch on a 12-play, 78-yard drive. Middle Tennessee opened the second half with a short field thanks to a kick-catch interference call on a UTSA punt. Tucker capped a 41-yard drive with a 3-yard touchdown run and the extra point made it 28-0 with 11:53 left in the quarter. The Blue Raiders added to their cushion when Alex Dale came up with an interception off a tipped pass and took it back 34 yards for the score just before the end of the third quarter. Kamani Thomas helped provide the final score after his 5-yard touchdown run with 8:48 left to play. The Roadrunners got on the board with 6:33 remaining when Taylor hauled in a 31yard touchdown pass from Sturm with one hand. The score was the third this season for Taylor, who also finished the campaign with 29 catches for 472 yards (16.3 ypc). Playing the final game of his collegiate career, David Morgan II had three catches for 34 yards. The Marble Falls native finished with 45 receptions for 566 yards and a program-record five touchdowns, while he pushed his career numbers to 85 catches, 1,104 yards and eight scores. Duke Wheeler led the defense with 13 tackles, his sixth double-digit output of the season, to go along with a forced fumble. The senior finished the campaign with a teamleading 93 tackles, which is the third-best total in program annals.
