The consensus is a resounding 'Yes," "You don't see the kind of person Steve really is because of the glare of his coaching accomplishments," said Chris Kennedy, academic coordinator in the Duke athletic depart- ment.

The 'Golden Boy' "The good of' Gator days are back." - Gay McDonald, wife of UF attorney Tom McDonald who negotiated Spurrier's contract The clock was ticking down in the 1966 UF-Auburn contest, and like the familiar script toan old movie, quarter- back Steve Spurrier knew the task that lay before him. With the score tied at 27, the Gators faced fourth down, and a long field goal would give UF the victory a masterful two-minute drill by Spurrier that After SUZETTE CMOK -- ALLIGA10 inside the 40-yard line, the Gators' senior brought UF football the best the state has to offer. quarterback called timeout and strode to the sideline to haw head football coach Steve Spurrier said he plans to make UF confer with Coach Ray Graves.

  • LSUS Men's Basketball Roster Continues to Grow
    LSUS Men's Basketball Roster continues to grow AUGUST 09, 2005 Shreveport, LA---Men’s basketball is returning for its junior year at LSUS with new expectations, new goals, and a roster full of new faces. The Pilots 2005 journey ended with a loss in the round of Sweet 16 at the NAIA National Tournament in Kansas City, MO, and a final regular season ranking of #7 in the nation. The season’s last game also brought to an end the college careers of five outstanding young men and extremely talented athletes in the likes of Derrick Hill, Justin Collins, Abraham Saxon, David Walker, and Derrick Rogers. “Those 5 guys will be remembered forever here at LSUS.” Commented head coach Chad McDowell just days after returning from the NAIA national tournament. “They will always be family and will be given credit for helping build our program in such a short amount of time. Replacing these guys will be tough. They are more than just great players; they are great young men and fierce competitors.” With such a dramatic roster renewal, most NAIA fans and supporters may be thinking “well, they better have enjoyed the ride while it lasted.” This may be the case for many programs that may have to suffer through the heartache and hard times of a rebuilding year after such a successful run at the ultimate goal of a national championship; this however is not the case for the LSUS Pilots. The Pilot fans are excited to see the returners and the players the have coming in.
