  • NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 43, No
    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 43, No. 2, Feb. 27, 2004) NCBWA President’s Message By NCBWA President Jeff Hurd Before basketball’s March Madness descends upon us, it is a little amazing that some Division I baseball teams are approaching the 20-game mark (notably Kansas at 9-7-1 through Feb. 23 and Cal Poly at 12- 4 prior to its Feb. 25-29 games). Before you know it, the NCAA Regionals will be upon us. This absolutely is one of the busiest but most intriguing times of the college sports year with as many as 10-12 sports occurring simultaneously from baseball to men’s volleyball to golf to indoor track to gosh- knows-what. It’s also refreshing to welcome the initial 2004 NCAA Division II NCBWA poll to this month’s newsletter and to see some of the baseball teams from cooler weather regions migrating south for the annual ritual of spring break baseball. The incessant pings of the aluminum bats remind us that the sights and smells of springtime and conference baseball cannot be far off; enjoy and sneak out of the arenas when time permits for some great diamond activity. Sincerely, Jeff Hurd - NCBWA President - Western Athletic Conference NCBWA Division I Players of Week The NCBWA Division I National Players of the Week are into their third week of the 2004 season. Nominees for the aw2ard are taken from Conference players of the week and announced on Tuesday. NCBWA Vice-President Mike Montoro of Southern Miss ([email protected]) coordinates the weekly awards.

Richard Bernstein , Board of Governors vice chair, is quoted in the story which ran on Dec. 3-4 in the Detroit News , Chicago Tribune , WWJ-AM , Great Lakes IT Report and WUOM-FM . An earlier Detroit News Web version story also mentioned that the board approved the creation of the School of Library and Information Science effective next year. The school will house the existing Library and Information Science program, which has grown from 125 students in 1987 to more than 600 today, according to WSU Provost Nancy Barrett . Sandra Yee , dean of University Libraries and Library and Information Science, will become the school's new dean. The Library Journal ran a feature story on Dec. 10. • A Dec. 9 WDET-FM item aired regarding Wayne State’s collaboration with the University Research Corridor • The Detroit Free Press and WDET-FM ran Dec. 3 stories about Wayne State University and Lawrence Technological University announcing plans to assist financially strained students and displaced workers. The stories indicated that Wayne State is temporarily suspending its policy of restricting registration to only those students who have paid all fees in full. Under the new temporary tuition and fee payment grace period program, students who owe $1,500 or less may register for Winter 2009 classes and have until Jan.

I think he’s a heck of a motivator. He can get the best out of guys.” “The guys at Florida are going to enjoy playing for him.

    25TH ANNUAL TUESDAY, DECEMBER 28th, 2020 Honoring Top Assistant Coaches Since 1996 OUR MISSION RECOGNIZING EXCELLENCE The Broyles Award was created in 1996 to honor my grandfather, Coach Frank Broyles. I am so proud of the award and what it has accomplished over the past twenty-five years. This award has touched the lives of so many coaches and their families, and has created a vast network of friends and colleagues through my grandfather’s legacy. Though he passed away in 2017, my grandfather’s mission carries on not just through this award, but also through the Broyles Foundation. This organization provides game plans for another kind of ‘assistant coach:’ Alzheimer’s caregivers in crisis. My grandfather built his career and his family around the pillars of teamwork, preparation, and selflessness. As caretakers of his legacy, my mother and I strive every day to uphold these values and expand upon his mission. My granfather’s values influence everything we do: just like he would have done, we are eagerly preparing for the next twenty-five years of recognizing excellence. Sincerely, Molly Arnold Broyles Award Director Coach Broyles’ Granddaughter COACH BROYLES ARKANSAS V. TULSA, 1964 THE BROYLES LEGACY Frank Broyles’ legacy of selecting and developing great assistants is unparalleled during his almost two decades as head coach at Arkansas. Broyles assistants went on as head coaches to win: • 15% of all Super Bowls • 8 Super Bowls in a span of 14 years • 5 college national championships • More than 40 conference titles • More than 2000 games Two of the three head coaches in football history to win both a National Title and a Super Bowl were his assistants, Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer.
