News Release NEWS RELEASE 100 Legends Lane • Waco, Texas 76706 • (254) 754-9900 • Fax: (254) 754-7373 • www.afca.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DECEMBER 19, 2016 AFCA CONTACT: Vince Thompson, Director of Media Relations 254-754-9900 EASTERN WASHINGTON’S COOPER KUPP AND MISSOURI STATE’S DYLAN COLE HIGHLIGHT THE 2016 AFCA FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP SUBDIVISION COACHES’ ALL-AMERICA TEAMS WACO, TEX. — Four-time AFCA All-American Cooper Kupp of Eastern Washington and Norfolk State linebacker Deon King headline the 2016 AFCA Football Championship Subdivision Coaches’ All-America Team announced today by the American Football Coaches Association. The AFCA has selected an All-America team since 1945 and currently selects teams in all five of its divisions. Beginning this year, the AFCA has started selecting a first and second team. What makes these teams so special is that they are the only ones chosen exclusively by the men who know the players the best — the coaches themselves. Kupp, who became the first player in FCS history to be named a four-time AFCA All-American, leads FCS in receiving yards per game (126.7), is second in receptions per game (8.9), and is third in receiving touchdowns (15). Kupp has now broken 15 FCS, 11 Big Sky and 25 EWU records in his illustrious career. Cole led the FCS with 142 total tackles and was second in the nation with 85 solo tackles. He also recorded eight tackles for loss, two interceptions, four pass breakups and three forced fumbles. 2016 AFCA Football Championship Subdivision Coaches’ All-America Team - First Team Offense Pos Name Ht.

(Jackson) *-2015 All-American Team Background: The five teams now chosen for each AFCA division evolved from a single 11-player squad in 1945. From 1945 until 1967, only one team was chosen. From 1967 through 1971, two teams, University Division and College Division, were selected. In 1972, the College Division was split into College I and College II. In 1979, the University Division was split into two teams — Division I-A and Division I-AA. In 1996, the College I and College II teams were renamed Division II and Division III, respectively. In 2006, the Division I-A and Division I-AA teams were renamed Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) and Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), respectively. In 2006, the AFCA started selecting an NAIA-only team. From 1965-81, a 22-player (11 offensive, 11 defensive) team was chosen. In 1982, a punter and placekicker were added to the team. A return specialist was added in 1997, giving us the current 25-player team. The return specialist position was replaced by an all-purpose player in 2006. Top Teams: Delaware has the most AFCA All-America selections of any current FCS school with 29 selections by 26 players. The Blue Hens are followed by Montana (28/27), Eastern Kentucky (26/24), Eastern Washington (26/22), North Dakota State (23/21), Northern Iowa (22/19), Grambling State (20/19), New Hampshire (20/17), Lehigh (19/19), Furman (19/18), South Carolina State (19/18), North Dakota (19/17), Portland State (18/17), Weber State (18/17), Eastern Illinois (18/16), Youngstown State (18/16), Northern Colorado (17/14), Montana State (16/16), Western Illinois (16/15), Cal Poly (16/14), James Madison (15/15), Abilene Christian (15/14), Stephen F. Austin (15/14), Tennessee State (15/14) and South Dakota State (15/12). 2016 Conference-by-Conference Breakdown: Colonial – 7; Big Sky – 6; Missouri Valley – 6; Southwestern Athletic – 6; Southern – 5; Mid-Eastern Athletic – 4; Big South – 3; Patriot – 3; Pioneer – 3; Southland – 3; Ohio Valley – 2; Ivy – 1; Northeast – 1. -(MORE)- 2016 AFCA FCS COACHES’ ALL-AMERICA TEAM PAGE 3 OF 3 Consecutive Years: Eastern Kentucky leads all schools, having had at least one player named to the AFCA FCS Coaches’ All- America Team in each of the first 15 years a FCS team was chosen (1979-93). Eastern Washington has the longest current streak at nine straight years from 2008 to present. Double Duo: For the first time in FCS Coaches’ All-America Team history, teammates have earned back-to-back honors. Tennessee- Chattanooga’s Keionta Davis (DL) and Corey Levin (OL) were both named to the 2015 and 2016 teams. They join seven duos in FBS: USC’s Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush (2004 and 2005); Army’s Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard (1945 and 1946); Notre Dame’s George Connor and Johnny Lujack (1946 and 1947); Michigan State’s Bubba Smith and George Webster (1966 and 1967); Ohio State’s Jack Tatum and Jim Stillwagon (1969 and 1970); Notre Dame’s Ken MacAfee and Ross Browner (1976 and 1977) and Colorado’s Joe Garten and Alfred Will iams (1989 and 1990).

  • Search Firms
    SEARCH FIRMS By Martin J. Greenberg I. INTRODUCTION When a university looks to fill a vacancy within their athletic department, the process for doing so is sophisticated. Whether a search firm is hired, or an athletic director is conducting the search, the qualifications that are sought in a Head Coach are extensive.
