He has rebuilt the program in the two years since taking the job and has the Choctaws again mentioned among the conference's elite. The team has shown steady progress under Joseph's guidance with a 2-8 first year record and 5-5 season last year. The 2007 Choctaws return 16 total starters including record-setting quarterback Adam Shaffer, preseason All-American wide receiver Jake Allen and All-Ameri- can punter Jonathan Russell. Joseph led the Choctaws to a .500 record in the tough American Southwest Conference last year despite the loss of quarterback Adam Shaffer in the first game of the season. The Choctaws did not miss a beat offensively as the team went on to rank 11th in the nation in total offense (420.3) and passing yardage (276.6). All-American wide receiver Jake Allen produced the best statistical season for an MC wide receiver finishing with a school record 1,024 yards. Quarterback Brad Madden passed for 2,025 yards, the 5th highest total in school history. Under his tutelage a two seasons ago, freshman quarterback Adam Shaffer set all of MC’s freshman passing records including passing yards, completions and touchdowns.
