We had a mental error and they ended up coming and blocking the kick, taking advantage of some of the mistakes in which we made. Defense played outstanding, that front four of theirs is the best we've faced in conference so far this year. They did a tremendous job offensively. Our defense did a really good job against their offense.” On key elements to win against Mississippi Valley State "First thing is we have to stop the quarterback for Mississippi Valley. They've done a great a great job with the young man that they've recruited, he's extremely fleet of foot. He does a nice job running the football, nice job getting around the edge. He's extremely allusive, we missed three tackles on open field players so we're have to do a better job on open field tackling because he's an allusive guy. [Quinn McElfresh] is a good player. We played against him last year and he had to have been player of the week, he had over 200 yards against us last year. We're going to have to do a good job containing him. Then we have to put pressure on this guy when we try to keep him off down and distance, in a term called 'behind the change', not letting him stay up with the change we force him into throwing the football. When he's forcing the football, we have to put pressure on him." LEADING THE PACK -yard touchdown reception from Jay Chris- host Mississippi Valley State for Home- tophe. coming.

  • The Life and Legacy of Frank Terry Greer and His Influences on Historically Black College and University Bands
    1 THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF FRANK TERRY GREER AND HIS INFLUENCES ON HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY BANDS BY MICHAEL LLOYD SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE DR. MEGAN M. SHERIDAN, CHAIR DR. MATTHEW D. SCHATT, MEMBER A CAPSTONE PROJECT PRESENTED TO THE COLLEGE OF THE ARTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF MUSIC IN MUSIC EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2016 Running head: FRANK T. GREER 2 Abstract Frank Terry Greer was the second Director of Bands at Tennessee State University from 1951- 1972. During his tenure, he developed the marching band to become the nationally known Aristocrat of Bands. The purpose of this historical study was to preserve the history and accomplishments Greer garnered in his illustrious career. Through the research of historical documents and interviews of a former student of Greer’s and the current Tennessee State band staff, this historical study examined who Frank Greer was, how he challenged the norms of the Historically Black College and University (HBCU) music programs, and how his work at Tennessee State contributed to the history of the school and the evolution of the Aristocrat of Bands. The findings of this study revealed that Greer not only prepared his school, music department, and band to compete with other HBCUs, but also took Tennessee State’s music program to the national stage, placing them in the same realm as the bigger flagship institutions in America. Keywords: Historically Black College and University, HBCU, Tennessee State University, marching band, Aristocrat of Bands FRANK T. GREER 3 The Life and Legacy of Frank Terry Greer and His Influences on Historically Black College and University Bands The band programs, especially the marching bands, are the cornerstones of many Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU).
