2010 Jackrabbit Football

WELCOME TO SOUTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITYWelcome football fans!

As president of South Dakota State University, it is my pleasure and privilegeto join you at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium and the 97th Hobo Day football game.

My wife, Marcia, and I also extend a special welcome back to campus to ourfellow alumni. We’re so pleased that you have marked this date on your calen-dars to gather with thousands of other Jackrabbit fans — some from Brookingsand some from much farther away.

Each year, homecoming celebrations bring alumni back to campuses fromcoast to coast. These events give us a chance to see what’s new, who’s old andthose places and people we remember fondly.Homecoming is a time to express pride in the university and its accomplishments, and we havemany to celebrate.

Enrollment was announced in late September at12,816 students — another new record. Thisgrowth, about 3.5 percent, is consistent with projections and includes a record 2,247 newfreshmen and a record 1,475 graduate students.

Since Hobo Day 2009, students and facultyhave begun using several new facilities on campus, including:

• Dykhouse Student-Athlete Center outside the north end zone;• Avera Health and Science Center, home for academic programs in Pharmacy

and Chemistry and Biochemistry;• Jackrabbit Village residence hall complex, home to 400 students living on

campus;• Seed Technology Laboratory on the Innovation Campus; and• Renovated biology and microbiology laboratories in Ag Hall and Dairy-

Microbiology, a project that should finish during this academic year.

And we’re not done. Construction should start yet this fall on the second phaseof the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science building and the McCroryGardens Education and Visitors Center. These projects have been made possibleby generous donors and engaged students who share strong desires for this uni-versity to achieve national distinction.

Research awards won by faculty surpassed $66 million for Fiscal Year 2010.These grants and contracts fund scientific discovery, strengthen the Ph.D. programs at State, attract outstanding graduate students and spur regional andstatewide economic development.

Please take an opportunity to walk around the campus and talk to our facultyand students. Speaking for all of us at South Dakota State, we’re glad you’rehere!

Sincerely,

John Stiegelmeier has built the South Dakota State University football team into a consistent winner and aprogram on the rise in the ranks of the Division I Football Championship Subdivision.

Overall, Coach Stig has led the Jackrabbits to an 85-64 record (.570 winning percentage). SDSU has postedeight consecutive winning seasons, including the school’s first six campaigns at the FCS (formerly Division I-AA) level. The Jackrabbits have had a winning record in 11 of Stiegelmeier’s 13 years as head coach, includingsix with seven or more wins.

The 2009 season proved to be a memorable one as Stiegelmeier led the Jackrabbits to their first FCS playoffappearance and the program’s first postseason appearance in 30 years. The Jackrabbits finished as runner-up inthe Missouri Valley Football Conference with a 7-1 record and finished the season 8-4 overall. Nationally rankedfor the entire season, including appearing in the top 10 for two weeks, the Jacks finished the 2009 campaignranked 11th in both the FCS Coaches' and Sports Network media polls.

In 2008, the Jackrabbits entered another new era in their Division I pursuits as they joined the nine-team Missouri Valley Football Conference. With the transition from Division II completed, SDSU fell just short of aplayoff berth in its first season of eligibility, ending the year with a 7-5 overall record and 6-2 mark in the MVFC.Of SDSU’s five losses, four came against ranked FCS opponents, including conference co-champions NorthernIowa and Southern Illinois. The team’s other loss was at the hands of Football Bowl Subdivision opponent IowaState in the season opener.

The Jackrabbits cracked the FCS national polls for the first time in late October 2006, after posting back-to-back come-from-behind victories over CalPoly and UC Davis. After climbing as high as No. 19 on the final week of the regular season, the Jackrabbits finished the 2006 season ranked 22nd by theSports Network.

SDSU began the 2007 season in a preseason national poll for the first time, checking in at No. 20 in the Sports Network poll. The Jackrabbits droppedout of the rankings after a season-opening loss and didn’t return to the top 25 until the final poll of the season with a 19th-place showing.

The Jackrabbits continued their ascension at the FCS level during the 2008 season, reaching the 12th spot in the Sports Network poll after openingleague play with home victories over No. 14 Youngstown State and No. 15 Western Illinois in back-to-back weeks. In all, SDSU was ranked seven weeks.

During the 2007 season, SDSU claimed its first conference title since 1963 by winning the Great West Football Conference championship. After starting 0-3 for the second consecutive season, SDSU reeled off seven wins in its final eight games, including a 29-24 victory over previously undefeatedNorth Dakota State the final week of the season, to claim the GWFC title with a 7-4 overall record and 4-0 mark in league play.

In leading SDSU to the GWFC title, Stiegelmeier was named conference coach of the year and was honored by the American Football Coaches Association as the Division I Football Championship Subdivision Region 5 Coach of the Year. In addition, he was named as one of five finalists in the FCSfor the 2007 Liberty Mutual Coach of the Year Award.

After posting back-to-back 6-5 seasons in 2004 and 2005, the Jackrabbits rose another notch in 2006 as they compiled a 7-4 overall record, finishing theseason ranked 21st in the final FCS poll conducted by The Sports Network and 22nd in the College Sporting News coaches’ poll. Following an 0-3 start,the Jackrabbits rebounded by winning seven consecutive games for the first time since 1963. Three of the victories came in the closing minutes against nationally ranked teams, setting up a showdown with North Dakota State on the final week of the season for both the Dakota Marker and Great West Football Conference title. Although SDSU fell short in the championship game, the Jackrabbits finished with their most victories since 2003 and their bestmark in the three-year history of the GWFC at 3-1.

Stiegelmeier, 53, is the 20th head coach for the Jackrabbits. His tenure of 13 years as head coach is the second-longest head coaching stint in school his-tory.

The Selby, S.D., native first became acquainted with the Jackrabbit football program as a student assistant under John Gregory during SDSU’s onlyother NCAA playoff season in 1979. With the Jackrabbits’ victory at McNeese State (La.) on Sept. 30, 2006, Stiegelmeier passed Gregory (55-50-3 from1972-81) for sole possession of second place on the SDSU career wins list.

After graduating from SDSU with degrees in mathematics and physicaleducation, Stiegelmeier enrolled in graduate school at the University ofNorthern Iowa, where he served on the coaching staff of a Panther squadwhich posted a 7-4 mark in 1981.

Stiegelmeier coached at Eau Claire (Wis.) North High School from 1981-84, then returned to his home state as defensive coordinator, secondarycoach and recruiting coordinator at Northern State University from 1984-87.Northern was 8-3 in his last season with the Wolves and finished fourth inthe nation in total defense.

Stiegelmeier returned to his alma mater in July 1988, joining WayneHaensel’s Jackrabbit coaching staff as secondary coach and recruiting coordinator. After Haensel stepped down following the 1990 season,Stiegelmeier was elevated to defensive coordinator by new head coach MikeDaly.

In six seasons as defensive coordinator, Stiegelmeier helped guide theJackrabbits to a 41-23 record, turning in a winning record in all six seasons,including five seven-win seasons. That track record of success helpedStiegelmeier secure his first head coaching position in December 1996,when he was named Daly’s successor.

LUKE MEADOWSAssistant Head Coach • Offensive Coordinator •Offensive Line

Luke Meadows continues his long association with South Dakota State University football as he entershis ninth season as offensive line coach. The longest-tenured assistant on John Stiegelemeier’s coach-

ing staff, Meadows is in his fifth year with the role of assistant head coach and also holds the title of offensivecoordinator.

A Hot Springs native, Meadows began his coaching career as an undergraduate student at SDSU. Afterearning a bachelor’s degree in 1999, he continued on as a graduate assistant with the Jackrabbits during the1999 and 2000 seasons, coaching the running backs, including Jackrabbit career rushing leader and All-American Josh Ranek.

He then spent a season as offensive line coach at Wartburg College in Waverly, Iowa, before returning toSDSU in July 2002.

In 2005, Meadows coached an offensive line that helped pave the way for the leading rushing attack in theGreat West Football Conference, averaging 227.4 yards per game. During Meadows’ time on staff, the

Jackrabbits have posted four of the top 10 single-season rushing totals in school history and five of the top 10 single-game rushing performances. Inaddition, SDSU has recorded four of the top-10 scoring averages in the program’s history, including 35.6 points per game in 2008. The 2008 squadalso set an SDSU single-season record with 427 points in 12 games, scoring 40 or more points in a game six times.

With Meadows on the coaching staff, SDSU has established 11 team single-game and single-season offensive records, including rolling up 689yards of total offense in the 2005 Hobo Day victory over Missouri-Rolla. Jackrabbit players he has coached also have established 30 new individualschool records during his tenure.

Under his guidance, Meadows has coached offensive linemen who have combined for six first-team all-conference selections and second-team accolades 10 times, including 2009 honorees Ryan McKnight (first team) and Casey Knips (second team). Three of his former pupils — Mitch Erickson (Seattle Seahawks), Casey Bender (Cleveland Browns) and Casey Knips (Arizona Cardinals) — were in NFL training camps this summer.

As a unit, the Jackrabbit offensive line yielded only 12 sacks for the entire season en route to winning the 2007 Great West Football Conferencechampionship.

Meadows also played a key role in SDSU’s successful transition to the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision by serving as theprogram’s recruiting coordinator for much of his tenure.

Clint Brown enters his second season as an assistant coach with the South Dakota State University football program, filling the roles of co-defensive coordinator, defensive line coach and recruiting

coordinator.

In 2009 with the Jackrabbits, Brown helped direct a defense that played a prominent role in SDSU’s berthin the Football Championship Subdivison playoffs. SDSU ranked among the national leaders in scoring defense for much of the season, before finishing the year ranked 16th after allowing an average of 17.4 pointsper game. Four times the Jackrabbits held an opponent without an offensive touchdown.

Additionally, SDSU posted top-20 national rankings in three other defensive categories: pass efficiency defense (fourth, 99.55); rushing defense (104.33 yards per game) and total defense (17th, 289.5 yards pergame).

Brown also served as position coach for All-America defensive end Danny Batten, who was honored as Co-Missouri Valley Football Conference Defensive Player of the Year and was later selected in the sixth roundof the NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills.

Brown has coached at the collegiate level for 16 years. Most recently, Brown served as the defensive coordinator, recruiting coordinator and assistant head coach at Wayne State College (Neb.) for four seasons. During his tenure at Wayne, the Wildcats improved from four wins the first season to a 9-3 record and NCAA Division II playoff berth in 2008.

Coughlin-Alumni Stadium is in its 49th season as home of Jackrabbitfootball.

In the quest to maintain it as one of the top outdoor football facilities inthe Upper Midwest, Coughlin-Alumni Stadium has undergone majorchanges during the past decade.

A new scoreboard was installed in the south end zone prior to the 2005season. The scoreboard, which was manufactured by Brookings-basedDaktronics, measures approximately 121 feet wide by 56 feet high andfeatures a large full-color ProStar® video replay screen in the center withadditional statistical and advertising panels.

The football scoreboard was part of a $3 million upgrade to scoreboarddisplay systems and signage at SDSU athletic facilities.

Also in the past decade at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium, lights were added,parking lots were paved, new restrooms were constructed, a new ticketbooth added, and an organized tailgating area known as “The Backyard”was cleared directly north of the stadium.

CAS will see other changes this fall as the Dykhouse Student-AthleteCenter, located in the north end zone, will house the Jackrabbit footballteam for the first time.

With the addition of the lights during the summer of 2000, CAS also became the home of the Brookings High School Bobcats.

SDSU played its first game under the lights at CAS on Sept. 1, 2001,defeating Ferris State (Mich.), 34-24. The Jackrabbits have gone on tocompile a 19-5 record in night games at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium.

The natural-grass stadium opened Sept. 22, 1962, when the Jacks lost a9-7 decision to Arkansas State.

During its 49 years of operation, there have been 258 games against 59different opponents at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium, with SDSU holding a159-99 record (.616 winning percentage) on its home field.

Since moving to the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivi-sion in 2004, the Jackrabbits have posted a 25-8 mark at CAS. That in-cludes an 8-2 record at home against Missouri Valley Football Conferenceopponents.

The largest crowd ever to see a football game of any kind in SouthDakota came through the turnstiles on Nov. 17, 2007, when 16,345 fanswatched the Jackrabbits defeat North Dakota State, 29-24, for the GreatWest Football Conference title. NDSU entered the game undefeated andranked No. 1 in the FCS Coaches Poll.

SDSU also set a single-season attendance record during the 2007 cam-paign as an average of 11,218 fans attended each of the Jackrabbits’ sixhome games. Four of the games drew crowds better than 10,000 and threeranked among the 10 largest crowds in stadium history. The Jackrabbitshave performed well in front of large crowds, winning eight of the 10most-attended games.

The previous single-game attendance record was set on Hobo Day, Oct.19, 1985, when 16,193 fans saw SDSU defeat the University of SouthDakota 24-12. USD also was undefeated and ranked No. 1 in the nation atthe time.

The stadium project was started after Charles Coughlin, a 1909 graduateand former student-athlete, donated $50,000 towards the building of a newstadium to replace State Field. The remaining $250,000 of the original$300,000 cost was raised from alumni, students and friends of SDSU.

The newest athletic facility at South Dakota State University, theDykhouse Student-Athlete Center opened in early 2010.

The Dykhouse Student-Athlete Center will help Jackrabbit Athletics take another step forward in its mission to produce student-athletes as Lifelong Champions.

The 30,000-square-foot facility:• Houses an academic center for all SDSU student-athletes.• Serves as the home of Jackrabbit football with coaches offices,

locker room, meeting rooms, a strength and conditioning centerand athletic training facilities.

• Provides a dedicated area to showcase the program to recruitsand donors.

The Dykhouse Student-Athlete Center is equipped with sevenmeeting rooms for the Jackrabbit football team to accommodate offense, defense, special teams,as well as specified position space asnecessary.

The home of Jackrabbit football players consists of a state-of-the-art locker room, which is second to none in the region. It embodies everything that Jackrabbit Athletics stands for: Honor, Tradition and Excellence.

Players will have the opportunity to condition and train in the4,100-square-foot Strength & Conditioning Center, filled with thelatest strength training and fitness equipment.

The Dykhouse Student-Athlete Center was made possiblethrough leadership gifts from the Dana and La Dawn Dykhousefamily and South Dakota businessman and philanthropist T. DennySanford.

Dana Dykhouse, president and Chief Executive Officer of FirstPremier Bank in Sioux Falls, is a 1979 graduate of SDSU. He lettered three years for the Jackrabbit football team, earning honor-able mention all-North Central Conference honors as a defensivetackle in 1978.

The Chicoine Champions Room is named in recognition of thegift provided by the Jeff and Chris Chicoine family of Lake Forest,Ill. Jeff Chicoine is a 1968 agricultural economics graduate andfootball letterwinner. The Chicoine Champions Room will serve asa hub for football recruiting and will be transformed to a donorhospitality suite on gamedays.

To date, the Dana and La Dawn Dykhouse family, T. Denny Sanford and nearly 50 other donors have given more than $6 million in support of the project. Many have accelerated their giftsto the University, which has increased the amount of the donationsthrough interest earned.

22 The Bum

The date – November 2, 1912.The event – first Hobo Day at State College.Hobo Day is said to have originated with s

everal students eating ice cream and talking at alocal drug store in 1912. The topic of conversa-tion was a way to rescue the sagging schoolspirit, caused to some degree when State lost itsfirst two football games of the season: 34-0 toCarleton, and 73-7 to the University of SouthDakota.

Many ideas of a homecoming day were broughtup, but none were taken with any enthusiasm untilsomeone mentioned an idea that had been at-tempted elsewhere. Although the idea wasn’t verysuccessful in other places, it did seem to hold somepotential for South Dakota State.

Thus, the biggest one-day event in SouthDakota was born.

Prior homecoming activities had featured atraditional “nightshirt parade” with snake dancewhich led the students through Brookings untilthey arrived at the train depot in time to meet thenight train.

That practice continued until one fall when thecollege authorities decided it was undignified forfemale students to participate in this activity.

Thus the idea for any new tradition had to in-clude the female students. Costumes conceivedin 1912 had males dressed as hoboes and girls asmaidens.

Even the first Hobo Day would prohibit theuse of the razor. Student regulations that yearstated that any male student show shaved afterthe Monday morning preceding the festivitieswould be initiated into the Bull Moose Clubwith a barrel and an oak lathe. Girls had to wear

their hair in a braid and anyone who failed to doso would be “painted with red ink and have theirhair braided.”

Students, dressed in costumes, assembled atthe Old North Chapel before they marched to thedepot to meet the Yankton College football team.

The parade started toward the train depot witha Hobo Band and the entire student body follow-ing to meet the Yankton team.

The Industrial Collegian reported: “At therally, onlookers couldn’t tell whether they werein an 1849 Indian village or a twentieth centurydivision point of the Northwest railroad.”

On the way back to campus, most studentsstopped at Brookings residents’ back doors and“bummed” ingredients for mulligan stew.

Weary Willie made his first appearance in1950 and Dirty ’Lil became an annual attractionin 1976.

The Industrial Collegian of Nov. 5, 1912, reported: “the first Hobo Day was one of thebiggest days SDSC has ever seen.” And theyhadn’t seen anything yet.

For the record, the initial idea worked — theJacks won the football game, 6-3.

HOBO DAY HISTORY

BURYING THE RAZOR was a popular ritual leading up to Hobo Day in yearspast.

Youngstown State is rebuilding the founda-tion of its storied football program under first-year head coach Eric Wolford.

The Penguins have undergone an offensivetransformation this season, upping their aver-age scoring from 21.1 points per game in 2009to 33 points per game in 2010.

Running the football has been key for thePenguins, who are averaging 228.1 yards pergame on the ground. Sophomore JamaineCook leads the rushing attack with 781 yards,averaging 5.9 yards per carry, and seventouchdowns. Adaris Bellamy has ground out395 yards and scored eight times.

As a team, YSU has scored 22 of its 28touchdowns on the ground. The Penguins fea-ture a veteran offensive line anchored by threeseniors, including left guard Eric Rodemoyer,a second-team all-Missouri Valley FootballConference a year ago.

The passing game has been directed by red-shirt fresman Kurt Hess. The Dayton, Ohio,native has completed 63.2 percent (108-of-171) of his passes for 1,195 yards and sixtouchdowns.

The receiving corps has been led by seniorDominique Barnes. An honorable mention all-MVFC honoree a year ago, Barnes has twiceas many catches as the next closest receiver onthe team with 35 receptions for 467 yards andtwo touchdowns. Barnes has big-play ability,scoring on an 80-yard pass against Penn Stateand an 86-yard punt return a week later versusButler (Ind.).

Overall, Barnes is averaging 13.3 yards perreception and 19.5 yards per punt return.

Other primary targets have been ElyDucatell, who has tallied 17 receptions and atouchdown, and Cook, who has caught 11passes out of the backfield.

Cook also has returned kicks on a limitedbasis this season.

The Penguins’ defensive unit has beenpaced by junior linebacker John Sasson, wholeads the team with 55 tackles. Fellow line-backer Deonta Tate is third on the squad with47 tackles, including four for loss, while thethird starter, David Rach, has collected teamhighs with five tackles for loss and two sacksamong his 43 stops.

Hometown product Donald D’Alesio rankssecond on the squad with 48 tackles from hisfree safety position as part of a strong second-ary.

Cornerback Brandian Ross leads the teamwith two interceptions and five pass breakups,along with contributing 35 tackles.

At the opposite corner, Randy Louis hasnotched 30 tackles and an interception.

Up front, defensive tackle Torrance Nichol-son has turned in a strong first half of the sea-son, collecting 27 tackles, four tackles for lossand a sack.

Senior kicker Stephen Blose has beensteady for the Penguins, connecting on 7-of-9field goal attempts and converting all 28 point-after tries. Blose is 6-of-7 on field goals under40 yards this season, but does have a 43-yarder to his credit.

Jake Smith has handled the bulk of the kick-off duties and redshirt freshman Nick Liste hashandled the punting chores. Liste is averaging41.7 yards per boot and has landed 10 of his26 punts inside the opponents’ 20-yard line.

SENIOR PROFILE

COACH STIG’S COMMENTS“Kyle Minett literally hit the ground runningwhen he got to South Dakota State University.He came to us after a tremendous high schoolcareer and has improved every day. He goes fullspeed on the field and in the classroom. As arunning back he is the complete package. He isexcellent at running, receiving and blocking.When Kyle does something, he does it to thebest of his abilities. He is a great leader who demands excellence from everyone in the program. On a lighter note, Kyle eats more thanany running back I have been associated with.His eating habits mirror those of his favoriteplayers, the offensive line. Bottom line, whenKyle takes the field, he will Make a Difference.”

MacNeil, a research geneticist with the USDAAgricultural Research Service, is considered bysome of his peers as one of the leading beef geneti-cists in the world.

His theories on genetics and economic benefit have become standardsin the industry. The key word there is “become.”

“The beef cattle industry was very slow to recognize the critical importance of melding economics with genetics for decision-makingpurposes,” according to Wade Shafer, director of performance programsat the American Simmental Association. That didn’t stop it from being ahigh priority for MacNeil since the beginning of his career, which startedat SDSU in 1976.

numerous noteworthy marks, but the public knows him best as thePride’s band director.

Band members’ most notable trips were to President Bill Clinton’s inaugural parade (1997), a Green Bay Packers game (1998), the NationalIndependence Day Parade (2000), the Roses Parades (2003 and 2008),and dedications of Korean and Vietnam war memorials in Pierre.

Heading into the start of the 2010 football season, six former SouthDakota State standouts were in training camps of National Football Leagueteams, continuing the Jackrabbits’ long tradition of developing players intopro prospects.

Headlining the list was Adam Vinatieri of the Indianapolis Colts. Vinatierihas earned a reputation as one the most consistent and clutch kickers in theNFL. After two Pro Bowl selections (2002, 2004), he left New England following the 2005 season as the team’s career scoring leader. Vinatieri’s career totals include 338-of-412 on field goal attempts, 82 percent, and 1,530career points. He holds the second-longest streak of consecutive 100-pointseasons to start a career in NFL history with 13 — a streak that ended duringan injury-plagued 2009 campaign.

Vinatieri also has excelled in the postseason. He holds the distinction ofbeing the only kicker in NFL history to play in five different Super Bowlgames, and made a field goal four of those games. He kicked last-secondgame-winning field goals in Super Bowl XXXVI against St. Louis and SuperBowl XXXVIII versus Carolina, as well as a game-tying 45-yard field goalin a snowstorm against Oakland in the 2001 AFC Playoffs. His career post-season totals include 42-of-51 on field goals and a perfect 51-of-51 on extrapoints. Vinatieri’s field goal totals are NFL postseason records, as are his 177points.

Vinatieri began his professional career with the Amsterdam Admirals ofNFL Europe before signing with the New England Patriots in 1996.

Four members of SDSU’s 2009 Football Championship Subdivision playoff team competed for NFL roster spots this summer, including defenisvestandout Danny Batten.

Batten became the first Jackrabbit player in 11 years to be taken in theNFL Draft, when he was selected by the Buffalo Bills in the sixth round. Adefensive end in college, Batten was moved to linebacker at the professionallevel, but will miss the 2010 season after suffering an injury.

Three other Jackrabbit standouts signed free-agent contracts following the2010 draft. Offensive linemen Casey Bender and Casey Knips agreed to

terms with the Cleveland Browns and Arizona Cardinals, respecively, whilelinebacker Chris Johnson originally received a tryout with the Chicago Bearsbefore signing with the Arizona Cardinals.

In addition, Mitch Erickson spent training camp with the Seattle Seahawks,after spending the 2008 and 2009 season on the practice squad for the DenverBroncos.

Another former Jackrabbit kicker, Parker Douglass, is playing profession-ally with the Sacramento Mountain Lions of the United Football League.Douglass kicked for the California Redwoods in 2009.

SENIOR PROFILE

COACH STIG’S COMMENTS“Conrad Kjerstad is a special student-athlete inso many ways. The first thing I think of is hisability to play the game; he has a true knack.Along with great athletic ability to make plays,he understands the game and is able to makeadjustments easily. He is excellent in the class-room and is excellent as a leader, being voted ateam captain. Conrad has made so many playsand so many great decisions on the footballfield. Unfortunately for Conrad, he had to makea tough decision this fall. Prior to getting on thefield, Conrad decided that due to medical rea-sons he would give up the game he had givenso much to. It has been tough on those whoknow him, but one thing has not changed ...Conrad Kjerstad is a Difference Maker.

MISSOURI VALLEY FOOTBALL CONFERENCE

The past four seasons have dealt great changeto the Missouri Valley Football Conference.Within that span, the league has lost a member,gained two members and changed its name.

Despite those developments, a quality nation-ally competitive product has been a constant forthe league, which celebrated its Silver Anniver-sary in 2009.

The Missouri Valley Football Conference en-ters its 26th year of existence this fall and hasproven to be one of the nation’s premier NCAAFootball Championship Subdivision (FCS)leagues.

There’s not much that has eluded the confer-ence in its first 25 years of existence. Theleague’s first two-plus decades have includednational championships, national players of theyear, national coaches of the year, No. 1 nationalrankings, and countless All-Americans.

Strong coaching and great players havehelped make the league a national force, but thestability and leadership of Commissioner PattyViverito -- the only commissioner the league hasever known -- has helped make the MissouriValley Football Conference a standard bearer onthe FCS scene. Indeed, all signs point to contin-ued national prominence for the Missouri ValleyFootball Conference as it enters its 26th seasonin 2010.

In June 2008, presidents of the nine-memberGateway Football Conference and the 10-mem-ber Missouri Valley Conference approved a rebranding initiative that changed the footballconference name from the Gateway FootballConference to the Missouri Valley Football Conference. It represented the second namechange for the football league. Initially, the conference competed as the Gateway CollegiateAthletic Conference (1985-91) and the GatewayFootball Conference (1992-2007).

Although the league shares the Missouri Val-ley name, the football-playing members com-pete under a separate administrative umbrella, asthe Missouri Valley Conference and the MissouriValley Football Conference will remain separateentities.

While the 2009 season didn’t produce a national championship, it was a successful one,as Southern Illinois and South Dakota State represented the conference in the playoffs,marking the 15th-straight season in which atleast two teams have participated in post-seasonplay. For three-straight weeks to close out theregular season, Southern Illinois enjoyed the No.1 national ranking, while RB Deji Karim ofSouthern Illinois and DE Danny Batten of SouthDakota State were finalists in the Walter PaytonAward and Buck Buchanan voting, respectively,with each finishing third.

The Missouri Valley Football Conference hastwo recent national championships (Western

Kentucky - 2002; Youngstown State - 1997), andleague members Youngstown State (3) andSouthern Illinois (1) own additional titles priorto their league membership, meaning six FCSchampionship trophies are housed on leaguecampuses, in addition to three (YoungstownState twice and UNI in 2005) runner-up finishes.Only five FCS leagues possess more than a single FCS championship trophy, and the Missouri Valley Football Conference is amongthat elite.

In recent years, the league has established it-self as a leader among FCS conferences. Duringthe past 13 years, the league has two nationalchampionships and eight other semifinal trips.The league’s 36-27 playoff mark in that span isthird-best among all FCS leagues, and the con-ference has had four teams reach the title gamesince 1997.

The Missouri Valley Football Conference success is not limited to the immediatepast. During the decade of the 1990’s, currentmembers of the league compiled a 34-19 markin the FCS playoffs, bettered only by the South-ern Conference, whose members were 37-19 inthat decade.

Team accomplishments have helped solidifythe Missouri Valley Football Conference as anFCS elite, but individuals at the league’s mem-ber institutions are the real source of pridewithin the conference. Thanks to great playersand strong coaching, the Missouri Valley Foot-ball Conference has reached and will maintainits place among the FCS best.

Last year, despite tough scheduling, six teamsin the conference had winning records, markingthe first time that’s ever happened in the 25-yearhistory of the league. The Missouri Valley Foot-ball Conference has had four teams (or more)with better than .500 records in the same season16 times now, including the past 12 seasons.

In 1997, Youngstown State grabbed thecrowned jewel for the conference, as the leaguehad one of its most successful seasons. In addi-tion to claiming the league’s first national cham-pionship, the Penguins finished the year rankedNo. 1, marking the first time a league memberhas held that spot in a season-ending poll. Thatyear, Western Illinois was at No. 6, marking thefirst time the league ended the year with twoteams ranked among the top six.

In 1999, the Missouri Valley Football Confer-ence trumped that, as Youngstown State finishedthe year No. 2 and Illinois State was No. 3. UNIalso finished in the top 20 in both nationally rec-ognized polls.

In 2002, Western Kentucky added to theleague’s national championship trophy case withan FCS crown, while both WKU (No. 1) andWestern Illinois (No. 5) finished among the nation’s top five in the season-ending polls. The Hilltoppers became the first school to earn

MISSOURI VALLEY FOOTBALL CONFERENCEvictories against the tourney’s top three seeds enroute to their national championship.

In 2003, four Valley teams represented theleague in the 16-team NCAA playoffs, markingthe first time any league has sent that many tothe playoffs in the same year.

In 2004, Southern Illinois spent a league-record 11 weeks as the nation’s top-rankedteam, while all eight league teams received votesfor the Top 25 at some point in the season. Line-backer Boomer Grigsby of Illinois State earneda National Defensive Player of the Year honor,while SIU’s Jerry Kill was National Coach ofthe Year.

In 2005, UNI became the fourth leagueschool to reach the FCS championship gamesince 1997, while Southern Illinois and WesternKentucky combined to hold the nation’s No. 1ranking in the top-25 polls for five weeks.

In 2006, Youngstown State won its second-straight league championship and the Penguinswere joined in the playoff field by Illinois Stateand Southern Illinois. That marked only the second time in league history the league hadmore than two teams qualify for the 16-teamplayoff field. SIU’s Arkee Whitlock was a national player of the year award winner (College Sporting News) and was third in theWalter Payton Award balloting.

In 2008, six teams were nationally ranked inthe same poll, marking the first time in leaguehistory that had happened. Those six teams wereranked for four consecutive weeks. NorthDakota State held the nation’s No. 1 spot for itsfirst two weeks as a conference member, whilerookie coach Dale Lennon of Southern Illinoisbecame just the third mentor to win Coach of theYear honors in his first league season.

The original Gateway Conference wasfounded as a women’s athletic organization inAugust 1982, following the dissolution of theAssociation of Intercollegiate Athletics forWomen. In September of that year, Patty Viverito was named the first commissioner ofthe newly founded conference, a position shemaintains today. Before moving to its permanentheadquarters in St. Louis, the conference spentthree organizational months on the campus ofEastern Illinois University.

In July of 1992, the 10-team conference disbanded as its women’s programs realignedwith their men’s teams in their respective conferences. The league assumed its new nameon July 1, 1992, becoming the Gateway FootballConference, an NCAA FCS football leaguecomprised of seven Midwest institutions.

The Gateway Conference football divisionwas born on August 21, 1985, when the Gate-

way Conference President’s Council voted toadd a FCS football division for six of its mem-bers to the previously all-women’s athletics organization. Founding members of the footballdivision were Eastern Illinois, Illinois State,UNI, Southern Illinois, Southwest MissouriState (now Missouri State) and Western Illinois.The creation of the football division marked thefirst time in college annals that football wasadded to a women’s conference. In June of1986, Indiana State became the seventh memberof the conference.

In the 25 years of the football division, leaguemembership has been stable -- with only fivefluctuations since 1986 Eastern Illinois left theleague to join the Ohio Valley Conference in1996, while Youngstown State joined the confer-ence in 1997 to return league membership to itsoriginal seven-member status. League member-ship reached what was then an all-time high ofeight members for the start of the 2001 seasonwith the addition of Western Kentucky. The Hilltoppers left the league after six years to jointhe Sun Belt (FBS) North Dakota State andSouth Dakota State joined for the start of the2008 season, giving the league nine membersfor the first time.

The Missouri Valley Football Conference isamong 10 FCS conferences that receive auto-matic bids to the NCAA FCS Championship.The conference has had an automatic bid since1986, as the FCS Football Committee waivedthe league’s two-year waiting period and grantedthe league an automatic bid after just one year.

The Missouri Valley Football Conference isthe only automatic FCS qualifying conferencethat sponsors football as its only sport, as theleague completed its service to women’s athlet-

ics following the 1991-92 season. Although theleague no longer sponsors women’s sports, theleague has an historical place in the developmentof intercollegiate women’s athletics.

The 10 founders of the original Gateway Collegiate Athletic Conference currently belongto three conferences. Eight members joined theirmen’s programs in the Missouri Valley: Bradley,Drake, Illinois State, Indiana State, MissouriState, UNI, Southern Illinois, and Wichita State.Eastern Illinois is now in the Ohio Valley Conference, while Western Illinois competes inThe Summit League.

Members of the Missouri Valley FootballConference (and initial year of membership) include: Illinois State University (1985), IndianaState University (1986), Missouri State Univer-sity (1985), North Dakota State University(2008), the University of Northern Iowa (1985),South Dakota State University (2008), SouthernIllinois University (1985), Western Illinois Uni-versity (1985), and Youngstown State University(1997).

Five Missouri Valley Football Conferencemembers also compete in the Missouri ValleyConference (Illinois State, Indiana State, Missouri State, Northern Iowa, and SouthernIllinois). Three league schools compete in TheSummit League (North Dakota State, SouthDakota State, and Western Illinois), whileYoungstown State competes in the HorizonLeague for its other sports.

In its decade of operation, the Gateway spon-sored championships in 10 women’s sports andfootball. The women’s sports were basketball,cross country, golf, indoor and outdoor track &field, swimming and diving, tennis, softball, volleyball and, early on, field hockey.

SOUTH DAKOTA STATE officially opened the Missouri Valley Football Conference era bydefeating Youngstown State, 40-7, on Sept. 6, 2008, at Coughlin-Alumni Stadium. TheJackrabbits ended their inaugural season in the MVFC with a 6-2 league record.
