Arkansas State University earned a Sun Belt Conference championship and was the league representative in the 2005 New Orleans Bowl. When Steve Roberts took over the program in December 2001, he impressed everyone with his wide-eyed enthusiasm and limitless energy. And, most of all, they believed that Roberts would bring success to the Indian football program. But, most people wouldn’t put a timetable to that hope and most will tell you that four seasons may be too soon for such an accomplishment. But, it wasn’t. Roberts and his staff weren’t going to settle for five, six, or seven seasons to pass before the Indians would be ready. They were ready in 2005. Roberts is that way. Take a look at the ASU football facilities — a new training room, weight room, locker room, recruiting room, and uniforms. And, that was last year. Now, it’s state-of-the-art ProGreen turf on the field and a repeat academic team award. Who knows what lies in the future? One thing is for sure—Steve Roberts will not rest until ASU has the type of Division I-A football program that everyone can be proud of. The only thing that hasn’t changed for Roberts, his staff and team is the base philosophy of Indian football. He may have lost some very fine players and fine young men from the 2005 squad to graduation, but don’t underestimate him and his cache of weapons. You will never hear this head coach moan and groan . . . a “positive attitude” is the name of his game. And, after four seasons, he has made believers out of a lot of Indian football fans. Roberts came to Arkansas State University and brought with him a fresh enthusiasm, energy, and an “I Will” philosophy that has been adopted by everyone associated with the pro- gram. “I Will” became the rallying cry as Roberts and his staff charged ahead through a grueling 13-game schedule in 13 weeks with no open date in his inaugural season and came within 11 points of winning the Sun Belt Conference championship and playing in the Sun Belt Conference prize—the New Orleans Bowl. ASU ended the season with a record of 6-7 and finished third in the league rankings. That tied the most conference wins since rejoining Division I-A in 1992. The Indians finished in the top ten turnarounds by Division I-A football schools for improving football records after The Roberts File finishing 2-9 in 2001. Also, attendance increased significantly in 2002. Age: 41 The 2003 season saw a lot of success as well. Attendance increased even more, Alma Mater: Ouachita Baptist ‘87 two defensive linemen ended up in the , the team won the Record at ASU: 21-28 (5 years) Sun Belt Conference academic award, and so on, and so on, and so on. The 2004 season exploded when it came to fan involvement. Take a look at the Record: 70-61-1 (13 years) Memphis game...a record crowd of 30,427 and a sea of red to cheer on the Indians.

(Head Coach, 1994-99; Assistant Coach, 1990-93), After his first season as the Indians’ football chief, Roberts became the first ASU Texas High School (Assistant Coach, 1988-89), head coach since Gene Harlow (in 1955) to win at least six games in his first year as a head coach. Also, ASU’s two road wins at Louisiana-Monroe and Idaho were the Southern Arkansas (Asst. Coach, 1987) most since 1989. High School: Robinson (Little Rock, AR) High School The 40-year-old Roberts, a native of Little Rock, was named Arkansas State’s 26th head football coach on December 21, 2001, to bring full circle his coaching Roberts Year-By-Year (Head Coach) odyssey from his home state through Louisiana and back.

2006 Arkansas State Football 8 ASUIndians.com 2006 GAME RECAPS GAME 1 September 2, Jonesboro, AR (Indian Stadium - 23, 426) Arkansas State 14, Army 6 JONESBORO, Ark. (9/2/06) — Reggie Arnold rushed for 140 yards and scored a 17-yard touchdown in his first-ever collegiate football game to lead Arkansas State (1-0) past Army (0-1), 14-6, Saturday night in Indian Stadium. Army got on the scoreboard first courtesy of a 26-yard field goal by Austin Miller in the first quarter with 8:19 showing on the clock. Arnold, a 5-9, 217-pound redshirt freshman, found his way into the end zone with 3:52 left in the second quarter for the score. Kicker Josh Arauco’s extra point put the Indians on top, 7-3. Despite a few mistakes, ASU appeared to dominate the game with tough defense and a solid offensive perform- ance behind the efforts of the Indians’ two , Travis Hewitt and Corey Leonard. The 6-1, 210-pound Hewitt started the ball game and Leonard, a 6-1 196-pound redshirt freshman came in on the Indians’ third possession. ASU’s other score came on a 10-yard run by Hewitt at the 11:54 mark in the third quarter. Miller added another field goal late in the fourth quarter to end the scoring. ASU rolled up 319 yards of total offense including 222 yards on the ground and 97 yards through the air. Army fin- ished the game with 164 yards of offense. Hewitt and Leonard combined to connect on 11 of 16 passes. Chris Miller led all Indian receivers with four catches for 21 yards. Army quarterback David Pevoto completed 12 of 23 for 95 yards and two interceptions and the Black Knights’ ground game was led by Wesley McMahand with 13 carries for 35 yards. Defensively, the Tribe was paced by safety Tyrell Johnson with nine total stops, followed by tackle Jamarrow James and linebacker Josh Williams, with seven each. Williams played his first game since the 2004 season. Free safety Jordan Murray led the Black Knights with 12. Following the win, ASU students and fans stormed the playing field and easily tore down the goal posts on both ends. The incident was the first time in the stadium’s 31-year history.
