Bowl-eligibility is one of the goals of the Connecticut football pro- gram every year and Husky fans have helped develop UConn’s reputation into a school that “travels well”. Community Service Community service is an integral part of the UConn football experi- ence. Husky football student-athletes perform numerous hours of com- munity service throughout the year by visiting children at local schools, hospitals and other activities. One of the key community service activities of the UConn football team is the “Goal Line Project” at the East Hartford Middle School. The UConn football program has adopted the school and student-athletes make frequent visits to the school to provide mentoring and inspiration both in academics and athletes. During the football season, members of the UConn football team spend Monday afternoons at the school working with students. Academics Are The Priority Head coach Randy Edsall and his staff emphasizes academics from the time that the recruiting process begins until a student-athlete has earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Connecticut…and the numbers prove this point. UConn was the top BIG EAST team in the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate (GSR) survey in both October 2008 and ‘09. In the latest NCAA Academic Performance Rate (APR) results, UConn scored an impressive 949 over a four-year period. The UConn football program had the third-highest GSR for the more than 50 public universities that played in a bowl game following the 2009 season. Husky football student-athletes use the Herb and Marcia Dunn Academic Support Center in The Burton Family Football Complex to assist in their academic endeavors. BIG EAST Champions Each and every year, the Connecticut football team expects to be a factor in the race for the BIG EAST Championship. That goal came to fruition in 2007 as the Huskies won the league title in just their fourth year as a member of the conference. The Rentschler Field Advantage The UConn football team takes great pride in its winning percentage at Rentschler Field. Since the stadium opened, UConn has won nearly three-quarters of the games played there and has posted victories over teams from the BIG EAST, ACC, Big Ten and Big XII at Rentschler Field. Husky fans have responded with a 96 percent capacity mark since the stadium opened. Staying In Touch With Alumni The UConn football alumni are the roots of the excellence of the Husky program. UConn football alumni are more active and involved in the program than ever. For the past four seasons, former UConn head coaches and alumni have served as honorary coaches for the Blue-White Spring Football Game. In an effort to help members of UConn’s foot- ball team enhance their prospects for employment following college, the UConn football program sponsors a Career Information Fair twice a year. Football alumni are also invited to the field before home games to Connecting With The Fans form a tunnel as the current Huskies come running out – a gesture that Husky fans have numerous opportunities to meet and greet the Husky bonds generations of Husky players. coaching staff and players during the calendar year. Before each home game, UConn fans are encouraged to come to the “Husky Walk” as the team gets off the team buses and makes its way through a sea of Blue and White to Strength and Conditioning their locker room. The strength and conditioning program for UConn football players In February, all UConn season tickets holders and UConn Club is among the most innovative in the nation and is coordinated by Jerry members are invited to a “Signing Night Reception”, as head coach Randy Martin – the school’s Strength and Conditioning Coordinator.

National leaders Running back Donald Brown became UConn’s first NCAA Statistical Leader in 2009 as he led the country in rushing years. The Huskies became eligible for the FBS Statistics in 2002 and have finished in the top 20 for total offense twice (2003 and ’04) and three times on defense (2002, ’05 and ’08). Professional Football Former UConn players are in the National Football League in numbers that are unprecedented in school history. UConn had nine players on active NFL rosters in 2009 – the most ever in school history. In the 2009 NFL Draft, UConn had four selections in the first two rounds – including the Huskies’ first-ever First Round Draft Pick in Donald Brown, who went to the Indianapolis Colts and then played in the Super Bowl in his rookie campaign. As 2010 NFL training camps open up, there will be a minimum of 12 Husky players with teams. There were also seven former Huskies playing in the Canadian Football League in 2010. Jasper Tyrone howard January 28, 1989 – october 18, 2009 Cornerback – Miami, Florida Jasper Howard loved life, his family, football and the University of Connecticut. He came to UConn from his native Miami and Miami Edison Senior High School and made an immediate impact of the Storrs campus. Jasper broke into the UConn lineup in his freshman year of 2007 and became a starter the following season. Meanwhile, he was working towards his degree in sociology and was an active member of the community. On October 17, 2009, Jasper made 11 tackles and had a forced fumble that he recovered as UConn defeated Louisville at Rentschler Field by a 38-25 score. In the early morning of the following day, tears fell hard from the October sky as Jazz lost his life. Jasper will serve as an honorary captain for the 2010 Huskies. Jasper came to play and practice with an energy that made him the consummate teammate… forever. In Memory of Jasper howard UConn alumnus and NASA astronaut Richard Mastracchio made a special presentation to members of the Husky football team as he gave them a flag in memory of Jasper Howard that flew in space in the space shuttle Discovery. As the football team left campus to play at West Virginia, its first game since Howard’s death, student-athletes from all UConn teams came together for a sendoff. Rentschler Field one of the Country’s Newest and Most Modern BCS College Football Stadium The 2010 season will mark the eighth year of play at Rentschler Field – one of the newest and most modern college football stadiums in the BCS.

Academically, the ACC’s unique blend of public and private institutions continue to lead the way among Autonomy 5 conferences. This was once again demonstrated in the annual “Best Colleges” rankings released by US News & World Report, as the ACC was the only Autonomy 5 conference to place seven of its member institutions among the top 35 and eight member schools among the top 50. With an average rank of 54.2, the ACC led all FBS conferences for the 11th consecutive year. ACC institutions saw 96 combined teams receive Academic Progress Rate recognition awards from the NCAA in May, once again the most of any peer conference. In the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate report released last November, the ACC’s graduation rate of 91 percent was four points above the national average. Additionally, the league tied for the highest GSR among peer conferences in the sport of football, and a combined six ACC men’s and women’s basketball teams achieved perfect scores.

    Forget the Titans. Remember the Bulls. Page 1 of 4 Forget the Titans. Remember the Bulls. Last Updated: Thursday, January 8, 2009 | 6:06 PM ET Comments1Recommend25 By Conrad Collaco, CBC Sports Bulls coach Turner Gill, a former star quarterback for the Montreal Concordes, is one of only four black coaches in the 119-team first division of the NCAA. (David Duprey/Associated Press) Finally, the University at Buffalo Bulls will go to the big game. On Jan. 3, the Bulls will take on the University of Connecticut Huskies in the International Bowl at Toronto's Rogers Centre. The University of Buffalo earned the berth with a surprise win over undefeated Ball State in the Mid- Atlantic Conference Championship in early December. But the International Bowl isn't the only football game on Buffalo residents' minds. Many will be thinking about the bowl game that was never played. When you remember the Titans, remember the 1958 Bulls too. They were invited to Orlando to play the Florida Gators in the Tangerine Bowl. The invitation had a catch: the team could play, but their two black players couldn't. Running back Willie Evans and defensive end Mike Wilson were not welcome. The Orlando High School Athletic Association owned the field, and they wouldn't let blacks and whites play together. Racial divides American college football in the south was a whites-only game. In 1962, James Meredith became the first black man to attend the University of Mississippi, and he was ushered in under protest and armed guard. That year, despite death threats, Darryl Hill became the first black football player in the Atlantic Coast Conference, made up of mostly southern teams.
