COVERING THE PIONEERS


Frankie DeBusk is entering his fourth year as athle� c director at Tusculum College. He was named interim director of athle� cs in August, 2007 and was promoted to the full-� me post later that year. DeBusk is also beginning his 13th season at the helm of the Pio-neer football program.

DeBusk oversees the day-to-day opera� ons of the Tusculum athle� c depart-ment and the 14 sports that the College sponsors. In his fi rst three years at the helm of the Pioneer Athle� c Department, De-Busk has guided Tusculum to outstanding seasons. In the last three years, TC has captured nine South Atlan� c Conference championships, fi ve SAC Tournament � tles and 14 NCAA Division II postseason appearances. Tusculum has fi nished fourth or be� er for the Doug Echols SAC Athle� c Excellence Award, including second in his fi rst two years as athle� c director. With its outstanding na� onal postseason success during the 2008-09 campaign, Tusculum was the top league school in the NACDA Director’s Cup, fi nishing 58th of 272 Division II programs in the country. Tusculum student-athletes and coaches have garnered numerous individual accomplishments during DeBusk’s brief watch. In the last three years, 122 stu-dent-athletes have earned All-South Atlan� c Conference honors, including 55 All-Region picks and 24 All-Americans. Twelve (12) have been selected as SAC Players of the Year, including four as Region Players of the Year. Three have also garnered Conference Freshman of the Year accolades. DeBusk has also stressed academic excellence in the department, resul� ng in 272 SAC Commissioner Honor Roll recipients over the last three years, including and a school record 26 named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District Team. Thirteen (13) Pioneers have earned the pres� gious South Atlan� c Confer-ence Scholar Athlete Award for their respec� ve sports, including six ESPN The Magazine Academic All-Americans®, including Dus� n Morrow (baseball - 2008), Nicole Ferris (women’s soccer - 2008), Jarrell NeSmith (football - 2008, 2009), Simon Holzapfel (men’s cross country - 2008) and Chase Carroll (men’s golf - 2009). Three TC head coaches were either named Conference or Region Coach of the Year during the 2007-08 season. Tommy Arne� (men’s tennis) and Bre� Teach (men’s soccer) were named SAC Coaches of the Year, while Missy Tiber was se-lected as the Region Coach of the Year by the Women’s Basketball Coaches As-socia� on (WBCA). DeBusk has overseen numerous athle� c facility enhancements during his tenure as both football coach and athle� c director at Tusculum. In 2007-08, championship banners were installed in Pioneer Arena, honoring the success of Tusculum athle� cs, both past and present. The Pioneer Arena playing surface was redesigned and refi nished during the summer of 2008, while historic Rankin Hall, which houses the TC athle� c department, experienced renova� ons to its main lobby area. The Pioneer football locker room also experience a major renova� on with the installa� on of new lockers and fl oor. DeBusk, the winningest football coach in Tusculum history, has built the Pio-neers into year in and year out contenders in NCAA II, resul� ng in seven winning seasons in the last nine years. Over the past 10 seasons, TC has posted a 64-44 mark including a 9-4 tally sheet in 2008, while claiming the program’s second South Atlan� c Conference Championship and earning the school’s fi rst berth to the NCAA II Football Playoff s. For his eff orts, he was named Conference and AFCA Region Coach of the Year. His 71 victories on the Pioneer sidelines makes DeBusk the winningest grid-rion coach in Tusculum history. His victory tally is the fourth most in SAC history, while his 37 league wins are the seventh most in the conference record book. In 2008, DeBusk’s team achieved success both on and off the fi eld. The nine wins � ed a school single-season record, including victories in four of its last fi ve games. DeBusk, a 1991 Furman University graduate, established 11 school records at quarterback for the Paladins, while compiling an impressive 31-6 record. In 1988, DeBusk led Furman to a 13-2 mark while capturing the NCAA Division I-AA Na� onal Championship. His collegiate career also included three Southern Confer-ence � tles and three trips to the NCAA I-AA playoff s. He is not the fi rst member of the DeBusk family to garner the TC black and orange. His brother, Doug, was a Tusculum Hall of Fame point guard for the Pio-neer basketball team from 1991-95. In 2003, DeBusk was the recipient of the pres� gious Art Argauer Award, which is presented to the Tusculum coach of the year as selected by his peers. He was the co-recipient of the Argauer Award again in the 2008-09 year. Frankie DeBusk is married to the former Jennifer Coff ey of Bristol, Tenn. and they have one son, Ty.

Frankie DeBusk is entering his 13th season as head football coach at Tusculum College. Since taking over the TC football program, DeBusk has built the Pioneers into yearly contenders in NCAA Division II, resul� ng in eight winning seasons in the last 10 years. He is also serving the dual role as athle� c director at Tusculum, a posi� on he assumed in August 2007. Over the past 10 seasons, TC has posted a 64-44 mark including a 9-4 tally sheet in 2008, while claiming the program’s second South Atlan� c Conference Championship and earning the school’s fi rst berth to the NCAA II Football Playoff s. His 71 victories on the Pioneer sidelines makes DeBusk the winningest gridrion coach in Tusculum history. His victory tally is the fourth most in SAC history, while his 37 league wins are the seventh most in the conference record book. In 2008, DeBusk’s team achieved success both on and off the fi eld. The nine wins � ed a school single-season record, including victories in four of its last fi ve games. The Pioneers won its last three regular season games, including a thrilling 45-44 win over 15th-ranked Carson-Newman College to claim a share of the SAC � tle. DeBusk mentored fi ve All-Americans on the 2008 squad, including the program’s most prolifi c quarterback in Corey Russell. Russell established 15 school, conference and NCAA II records, while fi nishing as a na� onal fi nalist for the Harlon Hill Trophy, which recognizes the

Division II College Football Player of the Year. Russell was named the SAC and Region Off ensive Player of the Year. He was also named Male Athlete of the Year by both Tusculum and the South Atlan� c Conference. For his eff orts, DeBusk was named the SAC Coach of the Year for the fi rst � me in his career. He led Tusculum to the second round of the NCAA Playoff s as the Pioneers ended the season ranked No. 16 in the American Football Coaches Associa� on (AFCA) poll. He was later named the AFCA Super Region 2 Coach of the Year. The 2008 club also boasted Academic All-America® � ght end Jarrell NeSmith. NeSmith was named the SAC Scholar Athlete, but he would later haul in the biggest award the league has to off er as he was named the 2008-09 recipient of the SAC Pres-idents Award. In his career, NeSmith earned the SAC Scholar Athlete Award three � mes (2007, 2008, 2009), a fi rst by any league football player. He also repeated as SAC President’s Award winner in 2009-2010. On only three occasions has a football player earned the SAC Presidents Award in the 21-year history of the honor (all three were from Tusculum). NeSmith earned Academic All-America® First Team honors in 2009 and was a Na� onal Football Founda� on Scholar Athlete and was one of 16 na-� onal fi nalists for the NFF William J. Campbell Trophy, which was won by Florida’s Tim Tebow. From 2000-05, the Pioneers recorded fi ve consecu� ve winning seasons, a fi rst in school history. In 2003, Tusculum posted a 9-2 record, including 6-1 in league play to earn the school it’s fi rst SAC Football crown. The 2003 team fi nished listed in the top 50 na� on-ally in 10 sta� s� cal categories and fi nished the year ranked 19th in NCAA II. That squad also featured fi ve All-Americans, including Harlon Hill Trophy na� onal fi nalist and Pi� s-burgh Steelers’ second round dra� pick Ricardo Colclough. In 2001, the Pioneers posted an 8-2 record as that squad � ed for second place in the conference and fi nished ranked 21st in the na� on. That team also went unde-feated at home (6-0) for the fi rst � me in the modern era of football at Tusculum. The .800 winning percentage made TC the second winningest gridiron squad of the 19 four-year ins� tu� ons that sponsor football in the state of Tennessee in 2001. Only the University of Tennessee (11-2/.846) had a be� er season. Solid special teams play has been a trademark of DeBusk’s teams as the Pioneers are consistently ranked amongst the na� on’s leaders in pun� ng, kicking and returns. In 2005, Octavius Love was the NCAA II Na� onal Sta� s� cal Champion for punt return average (20.2 ypr). For his eff orts, Love garnered All-Ameri-can recogni� on. The 2001 team boasted two of the best special team players in the land in All-American return specialist Donald Amaker and All-American kicker Paul Czerniak. Czerniak led the na� on in fi eld goals, while Amaker was listed na� onally in punt and kickoff returns. Colclough also garnered All-Ameri-

can considera� on in 2003 as one of the top return specialists in the land. In 2008, punter John Gregory added his name to this pres� gious list earning All-America recogni� on. Gregory fi nished third in the na� on in 2008, averaging 43.5 yards per punt, which was a new school single-season record. DeBusk’s 2000 club posted the fi � h-best win-improvement in the country by going from 2-9 in 1999 to 7-4 a year later. In 1998, the energe� c DeBusk took over a program that won only three games in its two previous seasons, becoming the third gridiron skipper since the program’s reinstatement in 1991. In 12 seasons, his teams have rewri� en the Tusculum record book by equaling or establishing over 100 team and individual marks. Since joining the South Atlan� c Conference in 1999, 64 players have earned All-Conference recogni� on, including 24 All-Region honorees and 16 All-Americans. Since his arrival at Tusculum, 25 players have con� nued their playing career at the pro-fessional ranks, including three in the Na� onal Football League. Colclough was the 38th overall pick by the Steelers, becoming the highest dra� ed player in South Atlan� c Conference history. Colclough became the third player in the history of the South Atlan� c Conference to earn a Super Bowl ring as the Steelers defeated the Sea� le Seahawks in Super Bowl XL. Kevin Wolco� , a 2003 All-American receiver, who led the na� on in recep� ons, signed as a free agent with the Tennessee Titans. Two-� me All-American tackle Alan Dunn,

the 2003 recipient of the Jim Langer Award, which is presented annually to the NCAA II Off ensive Lineman of the Year, signed a free agent contract with the Atlanta Falcons. In May 2010, receiver Nate Binder became the fi rst Pioneer to sign with the Canadian Football League as he was the fi rst pick in the fourth round by the B.C. Lions. Coming home can be a dream for many members of the football coach-ing fraternity and the Greeneville na� ve took full advantage in his rookie sea-son, guiding the Pioneers to a 5-6 record. Three of those wins came against South Atlan� c Conference compe� � on in TC’s fi rst season of NCAA Division II play. The Pioneers jumped out to a 3-0 start, including victories over SAC foes Lenoir-Rhyne University and 16th-ranked Catawba College. DeBusk came to the Greeneville campus a� er fi ve seasons as an assistant coach at the University of Cha� anooga. DeBusk, a 1991 Furman University graduate, established 11 school records at quarterback for the Paladins, while compiling an impressive 31-6 record. In 1988, DeBusk led Furman to a 13-2 mark while capturing the NCAA Division I-AA Na� onal Championship. His col-legiate career also included three Southern Conference � tles and three trips to the NCAA I-AA playoff s. He ended his playing career holding school records with 6,726 total yards, including 5,851 yards passing. He was also responsible for 55 touchdowns (38 passing, 17 rushing). For his eff orts, he was honored as Southern Conference Player of the Year in 1990. He also earned All-SoCon accolades in his fi nal two collegiate campaigns. In 1998, DeBusk was inducted into the Furman Athle� c Hall of Fame. Following gradua� on, DeBusk joined the Furman coaching staff as a graduate assistant coach in 1991 and was a restricted earnings assistant coach at his alma mater in 1992. The Paladins went 13-9 during that two-year span. DeBusk stayed within the league as he joined the Cha� anooga staff in 1993 where he worked with the Moc receivers and quarterbacks for four seasons, before assuming the role of off ensive coordinator in 1997. The Mocs posted their most successful season since 1991, with a 7-4 tally sheet in 1997. He also coached NFL standout receiver Terrell Owens, while at the Cha� anooga school. DeBusk was a two-sport star at Greeneville High School, where he guided the Greene Devils to TSSAA playoff appearances on the gridiron as well as a guard on the basketball hardwood. He is not the fi rst member of the DeBusk family to garner the TC black and orange. His brother, Doug, was a Tusculum Hall of Fame point guard for the Pioneer basketball team from 1991-95. In 2003, DeBusk was the recipient of the pres� gious Art Argauer Award, which is presented to the Tusculum coach of the year as selected by his peers. He was the co-recipient of the Argauer Award again in the 2008-09 year. Frankie DeBusk is married to the former Jennifer Coff ey of Bristol, Tenn. and they have one son, Ty.

2008 AFCA Region Coach of the Year

HEAD COACH FRANKIE DEBUSK


Marc Kolb is beginning his fourth year as off ensive coordinator for the Tusculum College football team. In March 2008, he was promoted to the posi� on of Associate Head Coach, while also mentoring Tusculum’s quarterbacks and receivers. In his brief � me at Tusculum, he has become

the chief architect of one of the most prolifi c off ensive a� acks in the na� on. In 2008, Tusculum’s “Show� me” off ense produced some amazing numbers that future Pioneer teams will be aiming for in years to come. The Pioneers scored a school-record 452 points, thanks to 62 touchdowns, including a TC-best 37 passing scores. Tusculum also established school records in pass a� empts (523), passing yards (4,179), total off ensive plays (917), total off ensive yards (5788) and fi rst downs (298). Kolb mentored one of the most prolifi c passers in school and SAC history in Corey Russell. In 2008, Russell smashed the TC and league record books, while becoming the fi rst signal-caller in school history to garner All-America recogni� on. Russell was a na� onal fi nalist for the Harlon Hill Trophy (DII College Football Player of the Year) and was named the Tusculum and SAC Male Athlete of the Year. Russell was also tabbed the SAC and Region Off ensive Player of the Year as he established 15 Tusculum records, including a pair of NCAA II bests. He recorded 300 or more total off ensive yards on 11 occasions in 2008, which are the best in DII history. Russell tallied 674 total off ensive plays, which is a new NCAA II record. The All-SAC First Team signal caller established league single-season records in total off ensive yards (4907) passing yards (4097) and touchdown passes (37). He also set TC season records for comple� ons (301) and pass a� empts (505). He also mentored All-America � ght end Jarrell NeSmith. NeSmith shined both on and off the fi eld as he was named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America® Team the past two seasons and was the recipient of the pres� gious SAC Presidents’ Award the past two years. In 2009, Kolb guided the fortunes of rookie quarterback Bo Cordell, who went on to garner SAC Off ensive Freshman of the Year honors. Cordell’s passing yardage tally of 3,458 yards (4th in NCAA II) was the second-best in school history, and fourth most passing yards in SAC history (1st by a freshman in both categories). His 3,355 total off ensive yards are the second most in TC single-season history and fourth in the SAC record book. In the season-fi nale at No. 14 Carson-Newman College, Cordell threw for a school record 524 yards, which were also the second most in conference history. On the year, Cordell passed for 23 touchdowns and was named the SAC Off ensive Player of the Week on two occasions. Cordell’s 3,458 passing yards and 335.5 passing yards per game are the most ever thrown by a NCAA Division II freshman signal caller. In Kolb’s three seasons at TC, the Pioneers have arisen as the top passing team in the South Atlan� c Conference. In 2007, Tusculum averaged 417.8 yards off ensively (31st in NCAA II), while Russell was named NCAA Division II Na� onal Off ensive Player of the Week on two occasions in Kolb’s inaugural season. In 2009, the Pioneers fi nished fourth in the land in passing yards per game, averaging 358.8 ypg. The Pioneers saw marked improvement off ensively in 2007 as TC averaged 27.8 points per game, a nine-point increase from 2006. Tusculum also posted over 1,500 more yards of off ense (4596 in 2007 vs. 3086 in 2006). Kolb came to the Greeneville, Tenn. campus a� er serving as off ensive coordinator and assistant head coach at the University of Missouri at Rolla. The Seminole, Fla. na� ve spent the last fi ve seasons guiding one of the top passing a� acks in NCAA Division II, including two years at the assistant head coaching post. He also served as quarterback and wide receiver coach from 2002-06 at UMR. The Miners led the na� on in 2006 in passing off ense, averaging 350.9 yards per game. UMR was also eighth in the country in total off ense (415.7 ypg) and 16th in scoring off ense (31.8 ppg). During his fi ve years with the Miners, UMR established numerous off ensive records and was one of the top passing squads in Division II over the last three seasons. Under Kolb’s watch, the Miners scored 132 touchdowns through the air since the start of the 2003 campaign. In 2006, he mentored All-American quarterback Joe Winters, who led the na� on in total off ense (339.2 ypg) and passing yardage (338.5 ypg) in NCAA II. Winters went 261-for-468 and completed 35 touchdowns, while the Miners’ passing a� ack recorded comple� ons to 11 diff erent receivers, including six with at least 20 recep� ons each during the 2006 campaign. He also mentored two-� me All-Americans Ashton Gronewold (2005, 2006) and Cole Drussa (2003, 2004), as well as Academic All-American® Phil Shin (2005). During his tenure at UMR, the Miners also set or � ed eight conference records and three NCAA II records.

In his fi rst season guiding the defensive front in 2006, Samples was an All-SAC First Team choice. In 2007, Samples earned All-SAC First Team recogni� on for a third straight year, while also being named to the All-Region squad.

Tusculum College is very fortunate to have some of the fi nest in-tercollegiate athle� c facili� es in the na� on and the Niswonger Sports Complex and Pioneer Field are no excep� on. The home of Tusculum Football since the reinstatement of the sport in 1991 and soccer since 1965, experienced major renova� ons in 2000. The result is one of the most beau� ful and func� onal athle� c venues to be found on any college campus. Tusculum College alumnus and Board of Trustee member Sco� M. Niswonger fully funded the mul� -million dollar renova� on to Pioneer Field and the construc� on of the accompanying indoor prac� ce facility and fi eld house located behind the west end zone. Niswonger also funded the construc� on of the 2,500-seat baseball stadium, located be-hind the east end zone of Pioneer Field. Pioneer Park, home of Tusculum Baseball and the Greeneville Astros, has received rave reviews as one of the fi nest baseball venues in the na� on.

J.C. “Red” Edmonds Softball Field also received renovations with a state-of-the-art playing surface and the installation of a new lighting system. The Niswonger Sports Complex was dedicated Oct. 25, 2003 in ceremonies prior to the Tusculum.Carson-Newman football game. Renova� ons to Pioneer Field included a two-story press box, new ligh� ng, concession areas, restroom facili� es and improvements to spectator sea� ng. The press box facility consists of 8,000-square feet designed to match the architectural style of the campus’s most classic buildings. The press box can accommodate 30 members of the media as well as coaches, fi lm crews and scouts. A President’s Suite was also constructed and is located on the second fl oor at midfi eld and can accommodate 30 fans. Restroom facili� es were also added to the second fl oor. Below the press box fa-cility, on the stadium concourse are concession areas and rest-room facili� es. The concession area is located facing the play-ing fi eld so fans won’t miss any of the ac� on. Sea� ng for 2,500 spec-tators is located on the north grandstand, including 200 chair

back seats. Special orange “cap seats” were added during the renova� on phase along with the addi� on of new bleachers and aisle railings. Bleachers on the “visitors’ side” were constructed providing sea� ng for 1,000 spectators, giving Pioneer Field its present sea� ng capacity of 3,500. With the addi� on of grass bern areas on the north side of the complex and behind the east end zone, Pioneer Field could accommodate 5,000 spectators. That came to pass in 2003 as over 4,100 fans packed Pioneer Field to watch Tusculum defeat archrival Carson-Newman 27-18. The fi eld house behind the west end zone features locker room facili� es that can be divided into four separate dressing areas. Also featured in the fi eld house is a dressing area for offi cials, a conference room and prepara� on areas for athle� c training and medical staff s. On the roof of the fi eld house, an end zone fi lming area was also constructed.

Along with the fi eld house, concession areas and restrooms were built to serve spectators in the south grandstand area. New ligh� ng and standards were added, which has greatly improved the amount of illumina� on during home events. The ligh� ng system is iden� cal to the one used at the University of Tennessee’s Neyland Stadium in Knoxville. The bermuda grass playing surface, considered one of the best in the region, also received special a� en� on. New sod on the sideline areas for soccer and in both end zones were added. New parking facili� es were added in close proximity to the stadium and the indoor prac� ce facility. In its history, Pioneer Field has hosted several tournaments and championships over the years, including the Food Lion South Atlan� c Conference Soccer Tournament three � mes (2000-02), the NCAA Division II Region Men’s Soccer Tournaments three � mes (2004, 2007, 2008) and the 2005 NCAA II Southeast Region Women’s Soccer Championship. In 2008, the facility hosted the both the fi rst round of the NCAA Football Playoff s and the NCAA Southeast Men’s Soccer Regional on the same weekend. Last year, TC hosted a NCAA II Men’s Soccer Na� onal Quarterfi nal match.

downs, which are the second most ever by a Pioneer and needs just two more scoring grabs to � e a school record. In 2009, Bri� made 16 catches for 261 yards and fi ve touchdowns. Juniors Deonte’ Gist and Michael Rodriguez also return for the Pioneers this fall. Gist, a 5-9, 170-pound na� ve of Wellford, S.C., is back a� er making 17 recep-� ons for 276 yards and three touchdowns. Rodriguez, a 6-1, 190-pound product from Columbia, S.C., was a mul� -threat off ensive performer. He made six recep-� ons for 36 yards, but also rushed fi ve � mes, including a touchdown and also comple� ng one pass. Also returning in the receiving corps for Tusculum are junior Jonathan Ly-ons (6-2, 190, Hampton, Tenn.), sophomore Zellburge Gleaves (6-0, 175, An� och, Tenn.) and redshirt freshmen Cory McCutcheon (6-4, 185, Wesson, Miss.) and Dan Herberth (6-3, 190, Bonifay, Fla.). Making the move from defensive side of the ball is sophomore Orlando Price (6-2, 200, Columbia, S.C.), who will be joining the receiving corps and compete for playing � me at the � ght end posi� on. Tusculum will be without the services of two-� me All-SAC running back Marcus Foster this season. Juniors Fred Jones and sophomore Brian Marshall are back. Jones, a 5-7, 180-pound na� ve of Appling, Ga., has played in 17 games as a Pioneer where he has recorded 22 carries for 92 yards (4.2 ypc), including a pair of touchdowns. Marshall (5-7, 180, Cha� anooga, Tenn.), who redshirted last season, appeared in nine contests in 2008 as he ran for 128 yards on 28 a� empts (4.6 ypc), while also returning a pair of kickoff s. Redshirt freshmen Chad Coleman (6-0, 245, Andersonville, Tenn.), Jeff rey Booker (5-10, 185, Maryville, Tenn.) and Beau’Dacyus Walker (6-2, 220, Birming-ham, Ala.) will also be looking to contribute in the Tusculum backfi eld. The Pioneer off ensive front returns four starters from last year’s team. An-choring the off ensive line this season is 2009 All-SAC Second Team guard Hannibal Ruiz. The 6-2, 310-pound product of Atlanta, Ga. has started in every game he has appeared in during his Tusculum career and is a Preseason All-SAC First Team choice this year. Senior Casey Sivert (6-5, 270, Rogersville, Tenn.) returns for his collegiate fi nale, while juniors Josh Stone (6-1, 320, Smithville, Tenn.) and Dus� n Moorehead (6-4, 285, Elora, Tenn.) are back. Also returning are seniors Brandon Priest (6-2, 290, Loganville, Ga.) and Eric Jeff erson (6-1, 280, Atlanta, Ga.), junior Pat Aiken (6-1, 280, Greenwood, S.C.), soph-omores Israel Pickens (6-4, 300, Piedmont, S.C.) and Cody Kennedy (6-6, 250, Douglas, Ga.), and redshirt freshmen David Davis (6-4, 275, McEwen, Tenn.), Chris-� an Bell (6-2, 285, Mad-isonville, Tenn.) and Nate Riddle (6-6, 320, Canton, Ga.). The Tusculum de-fense returns fi ve start-ers for fi rst-year defen-sive coordinator Kevin Weston. Weston, who is entering his sixth year on the coaching staff at his alma mater, and third as assistant head coach, will be coaching the TC linebackers a� er mentoring the TC defensive line for the last fi ve years. Leading the linebacker corps is Greenwood, S.C. senior Zachary Norman. Norman (6-1, 235), a Preseason All-SAC Second Team selec� on, led the Pioneers with 69 tackles (8th in SAC) last season, in-cluding one for loss. Norman brings veteran leadership with him into his senior season having played in 26 games dur-ing his career where he has posted 111 tackles. Senior linebacker Mason Fowler recorded 25 stops in 2009, includ-ing two for loss and a pass break-up. In last year’s season fi nale at Carson-Newman, the 5-10, 225-pound prod-uct of Dacula, Ga. ac-counted for a career-best eight stops, while sophomore Brian Alexander (6-1, 225, Union Point, Ga.) fi nished with a pair of hits.

The Tusculum College Pioneers return 43 le� ermen and 15 starters when they kickoff off the 2010 football campaign. Head coach Frankie DeBusk is enter-ing his 13th season at the helm of the Pioneer program as he and his squad look to rebound from last year’s 3-7 re-cord. But despite the disappoin� ng result, the Pioneers ended 2009 on a strong note, winning two of its last three games facing the fourth most diffi cult schedule in NCAA Divi-sion II. One of the posi-� ve notes to come out of last year was that the youthful Tusculum squad gained some valuable playing experience, which should help the program for the upcoming season and beyond. The off ensive unit, which boasted one of the top passing a� acks in the coun-try, returns six starters, led by sophomore quarterback Bo Cordell, the 2009 South Atlan� c Conference Off ensive Freshman of the Year. The 6-1, 185-pound Cincin-na� , Ohio product enjoyed one of the fi nest seasons ever recorded by a Tusculum quarterback. In his fi rst Tusculum campaign, Cordell passed for 3,458 yards and 23 touchdowns. His pass-ing yardage tally estab-lished a new NCAA II Freshman record and was the second most in school history and the fourth most by a SAC signal caller. His 345.8 passing yards per game were tops in the league and fourth in the na� on. He also ac-cumulated 3,355 total off ensive yards, which was fi rst in the confer-ence and sixth in NCAA II. As a rookie, Cordell established the top three single-game passing perfor-mances in school history, including his school-record 524-yard eff ort against na-� onally-ranked Carson-Newman College in the season-fi nale. The two-� me SAC Off ensive Player of the Week went 277-for-445 for a .622 comple� on percentage, which is second in Tusculum history. Redshirt freshman Torrey Slaven was the No. 2 quarterback coming out of spring prac� ce. The 6-1, 190-pound na� ve of Winfi eld, Tenn., threw a 30-yard TD pass with 55 seconds remaining to lead his squad to a 22-19 win in the Tusculum Spring Game. Slaven played his prep football at Oneida High School where he was a two-� me All-Region and All-Tri-County selec� on. Gone from last year’s squad are Tusculum’s top four receivers including All-Americans Ryan Tallent and Jarrell NeSmith. TC’s top returning wideout is junior Rashaad Carter. The 2010 Preseason All-SAC Second Team pick posted 35 catches for 510 yards and three touchdowns a year ago. Also garnering Pre-season All-SAC honors is senior Calvin Bri� . Bri� , a 6-0, 190-pound prod-uct of Augusta, Ga., has the ability to be one of Tusculum’s best big-play receivers in school his-tory. He enters his fi -nal collegiate campaign averaging 22.68 yards per recep� on during his career, which is tops in school history. He has accounted for 1,497 re-ceiving yards (7th in TC history) and 17 touch-

IN MEMORIAMTOM BRYANT

February 14, 1952 - June 3, 2010

This season, Tusculum College mourns the loss of former Pioneer head football coach Tom Bryant, who passed away suddenly on June 3, 2010 in Rome, Ga.

Bryant served as Tusculum’s football coach from 1991-94 where he posted a 15-24 record in his four seasons on the Greeneville, Tenn. campus. Bryant orchestrated the rein-statement of football at TC a� er a 41-year absence of the sport at Tennessee’s oldest college. A� er his first Tusculum team went winless in the 1991 campaign, Bryant’s Pioneers rebounded by going 15-14 in his fi nal three seasons combined, including a 6-3 record in 1994.

“This is a sad � me for all Pioneer fans,” said Frankie De-Busk, Tusculum Director of Ath-le� cs and head football coach. “Coach Bryant led our college football program during a � me of great transi� on as the Pioneers searched for a playing iden� ty. He was a true ambassador of the game of football and will be greatly missed.”

While at Tusculum, Bryant mentored 16 NAIA All-District 24 performers, while 56 of his players earned All-Mid-South Conference honors. He also coached the program’s fi rst two All-Americans in school history in Ma� Shults and Eric Claridy. Coach Bryant is survived by his wife Laura and their two sons, Champ and Aus� n.

The most recent “mul� ple 100” happened in 2000 when Ray-mond Rains tallied 128 yards and Aaron Claridy rushed for 112 at Newberry College.
