Head Coach Second Year at HBU Record at HBU: First Official Season Career Record (4 Years): 27-14-1 Alma Mater: Richmond, 1984; M.E. - Baylor, 1986

Vic Shealy was named the first head football coach in Houston Baptist University history on April 9, 2012. Shealy won an NAIA national championship while head coach at Azusa Pacific University, and served as defensive coordinator and secondary coach at the University of Kansas in 2010 and 2011.

With two-and-a-half years on campus already under his belt, Shealy will lead HBU as it enters its first official season of NCAA FCS and South- land Conference football this fall. The Huskies will also open their new on-campus stadium during the 2014 season.

In 2013, the Huskies took the field for the first time, playing a seven-game developmental season and going 3-4 (record does not count toward Shealy’s career total). HBU saw several bright spots in its first campaign, averaging 24.4 points per game with a balanced attack of 165.9 rushing yards per game and 161.3 passing yards per game. Running back B.J. Kelly, defensive back Taylor Thompson, and punter David Dunkin each earned national recognition.

In addition to serving as head coach at Azusa Pacific, Shealy was an assistant at Kansas, Richmond, UNLV, Air Force, Austin Peay State, Mars Hill College and a graduate assistant at Baylor.

Shealy served as defensive coordinator and secondary coach at Kansas last season and was the secondary coach for the Jayhawks in 2010. He was the defensive coordinator at Richmond in 2009 and at Austin Peay in 1994. At UNLV, he was the assistant head coach from 2005-08, after serving as secondary coach at Air Force from 1999-2004. Shealy was also assistant head coach at Austin Peay from 1988-89.

Shealy was the head coach at Azusa Pacific from 1995-98, leading the Cougars to the NAIA national championship in his final season. He posted an overall record of 27-14-1 at Azusa Pacific, including a 12-2 record during the championship run. His first team went 4-4-1, followed by a 7-3 season in 1996, the program’s first winning season in seven years. Shealy was named NAIA Coach of the Year and the Shutt Nation- al Coach of the Year in 1998.

While at Richmond, the Spiders were ranked No. 1 nationally for seven weeks and ranked ninth in scoring defense en route to an 11-2 season. Shealy helped Air Force to a pair of bowl appearances in the Silicon Valley Bowl in 2000 and the San Francisco Bowl in 2002. He also appeared with Baylor in the Liberty Bowl in 1985 and has seen six of his former players go on to careers in the National Football League. 8 2014 HBU Huskies Football Coaching Staff

DR. ROBERT b. SLOAN, Jr.

University President

Dr. Robert B. Sloan Jr. is in his eighth year as President of Houston Baptist University, the third president in the school’s history. He came to HBU from Baylor University, where he served as both Chancellor and President. HBU has seen tremendous growth in Sloan’s first seven years as President. Enrollment has increased, building is happening all over campus and the Huskies have moved back to NCAA Division I. This is all part of Sloan’s vision to make HBU one of the premier Christian institutions in the country. Born in Coleman, Sloan grew up in Abilene before attending Baylor and earning a bachelor of arts degree cum laude, graduating “With Dis- tinction.” In his freshman year, Sloan was a member of Baylor’s baseball team. He then earned a master of divinity degree magna cum laude from Princeton Theological Seminary before conducting postbaccalau- reate research in church history at the University of Bristol, England, and earned the Doktor der Theologie degree insigni cum laude from the University of Basel, Switzerland. Before returning to Baylor to join the faculty of the Department of Religion, he taught at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and adjunctively at Hardin-Simmons University. He was the first to hold the position of chair of the George W. Truett School of Evangelism at Baylor and became founding Dean of Truett Seminary in 1993. Two years later, Sloan was named President of Baylor University. Ten years later, in 2005, Sloan was named Chancellor. While holding a full-time academic position, Sloan served as interim pastor of more than 20 churches throughout Texas and Oklahoma. He has also authored two books, edited several and published more than 50 articles during his career. Sloan has held memberships in many professional societies and learned organizations. He has held numerous civic positions in the Waco area and has served on the board of Independent Colleges and Universities of Texas, the American Association of Presidents of In- dependent Colleges and Universities, the Big 12 Athletic Conference Board of Directors, and the Group of 6 (six major athletic conferences). He was inducted into the Little League Hall of Excellence in 1996. Married to the former Sue Collier, the Sloans have seven children, a daughter-in-law and three sons-in-law: Charissa, Bryan and Amy, Eraina HBU Athletic Affairs Committee and Bryan, Michael, Alathea and Justin, Sophia and Mac, and Paul. They are also the proud grandparents of Robert Bryan Sloan IV and Theresa Fuqua Lucy Larson.
