HOME COOKIN’The Bucs have won 21 of their last 26 home games over the past four years, including a perfect 6-0 record in 2006. CSU had a 12-game home winning streak, stretching from Oct. 15, 2005 to Oct. 20, 2007. The streak was the second-longest in the nation at the time it ended and matched the longest home run in Big South history. Coastal Carolina also won 12 consecutive home games between Sept. 11, 2004 and Nov. 12, 2005. Enduring a loss to Wofford on the road that was originally scheduled as a home game has given the Bucs the opportunity to go undefeated at home with home games remaining against Presbyterian and Edward Waters.

On The Road AgainWith week two’s game being changed to a road game, CSU started the 2008 season with three-straight road games. Combined with a bye week,CSUdidnotplaytheirfirsthomegameuntilSept.27whentheybeatNorthGreenville,27-0.NeverbeforehasCSUplayedtheirfirstthree games on the road. Five times (1997, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007) CSUhasplayedtheirfirsttwogamesawayfromBuccaneerField.

weekly returnsCSU had a couple of award-winning performances in their win over Gardner-Webb. Interior Defensive Lineman Kamalu Umu was named Big South Choice Hotels Defensive Player of the Week. Umu recorded fivetotaltackles,aQBhurryandaninterception.Alsorecognizedwas freshman punter Andy Brown, who recorded a 45.1 yard average on seven punts and pinned the Bulldogs inside their own 10-yard line four times. Brown was awarded Big South Freshman of the Week honors. CSU has also had the Big South Special Teams Player of the Week (Gerald Stevenson - 9/6/08) and the Big South Freshman of the Week (Chris Kuzdale - 9/13/08).

G-MoneyGerald Stevenson has continued to make his name known around the country with his electric kick return abilities. After earning Big South Special Teams Player of the Week (11/3) and Big South Freshman of the Week (11/10) honors last season, he has already earned Big South, and TSN National Special Teams Player of the Week in 2008. Both honors came after he set a Big South record with 255 return yards on seven returns against Wofford on Sept. 6. Combined with his receiving total (33) and 14 rushing yards, Stevenson posted a school-record 302 all-purpose yards against the Terriers, the second-best total in Big South History. With one return for 25 yards against the VMI Keydets (Nov. 1), Stevenson became the CSU career record holder in total number of kick returns with 58. He passed Mike Washington, who logged 57 returns in 2001-02. The Sophomore needs just 111 yards to pull even with Washington for the most Kick Return Yards in program history

Conference KudosCharleston Southern had four players selected to the 2008 Big South Preseason All-Conference team. Wide receiver Dee Brown and center Alex Bragg were named to the offense, while defensive lineman Jake Killeen and linebacker Josh Mitchell were named to the defense. All four selections are in their senior year.

After the 2007 season, the Bucs had a total of nine players named to the Big South All-Conference teams. Four of those selections return, includingfirst-teamoffensiveselectionDeeBrown.Second-teamtightend Ryan Ard returns, but moves to the defensive line in 2008, while second-team defense selections Jake Killeen and Okeba Rollinson also return for CSU.

In MemoryThe Charleston Southern football program con-tinues to remember Eddie Gadson. Gadson was a walk-on wide receiver, who fought to earn a scholarship,andwasnamedfirst-teamall-confer-ence as a redshirt freshman. The summer before the 2005 football season, Gadson was tragically killed in a car accident. The team rallied behind hismemorytowintheirfinalfivegamesoftheseason,claimingtheirfirst-everwinning season, and their first-everBigSouthChampion.Each year, a golf outing is held to help raise money for the scholarship created in his honor; the Edward A. Gadson Memorial Scholarship. The Scholarship is awarded each year to a walk-on who shows the same heart and determination that Eddie was known for.

Scholarship Recipients2008 - Matt Bach

2007 - Alex Thomas2006 - Darius Jackson

Second ChancesA number of Buccaneers on the current roster started their careers elsewhere. One of the most notable transfers on the roster for CSU is quarterback Tribble Reese, whojoinsCSUforhisfinalyearofeligibilityfrom Clemson University. Andrew McKain, who transferred in from the Air Force Academy will also look to make an immediate impact on the Bucs at the linebacker position. Darius Gaither also joined CSU from the Clemson program, making his presence known immediately with a team-leading nine tackles against Miami (Fla.).

Reese’s PiecesAftertransferringfromClemsonforhisfinalyearofeligibility,seniorTribble Reesemadehisfirst-careerstart(August28)againstMiami.Reesefinishedthegame10-21with81yards,butmost importantlyhelped lead the offense to a turnover-free game. CSU went only one game in 2007 (Nov. 10 vs. Presbyterian) without throwing an intercep-tion. Against Wofford, Reese wrote his name in the record books with 30 completions (3rd all-time at CSU), and 46 pass attempts (6th all time at CSU). His four touchdown passes against Miami (Ohio) ties him with the second-highest total ever in Big South history. After connecting with Gerald Stevenson for three touchdowns in the Bucs loss at Stony Brook, Reese was tied for the Big South lead with 11 touchdown passes. Reese posted another two aerial TDs against VMI and stands atop a number of BIg South categories: Pass attempts (257); Pass comple-tions (152); Total Offensive Plays (331); Interceptions (10). Reese is currently 3rd in total offensive TDs with 14 (13 Pass).

Ivey LeagueFreshman Antwan Ivey has made an immediate impact on the CharlestonSouthernbackfield.TheFloridaAAplayeroftheyearleadstheBucs’backfieldthroughninegameswith298yardson87carries.He added a 50-yard TD reception against VMI (Nov. 1). He recorded career highs for carries (15) and yards (70), while scoring a touchdown against North Greenville University. Ivey’s totals have been dilluted by the fact that 13 players have recorded a rush this season.

Philip’S PilfersPhilip Ashley intercepted Savannah State freshman quarterback Kurvin Curry to establish a new CSU career record with his eighth interception. He has now passed Jon Belk (1991-94) and Jon Carmon (2004-07) who each recorded seven picks. Ashley leads the Bucs with three interceptions in 2008, with his other two pilfers coming against Gardner-Webb (Stan Doolittle) and North Greenville (Richard Harb). Just a junior, Ashely will have his entire senior season to set the record out of reach for future Bucs.

Connecting the dotsDespite the loss of Dee Brown with a knee injury in the second week of the season, the Bucs have continued to fare well through the air.SophomoreGeraldStevensonhasmorethanadequatelyfilledBrown’s role in the offense. Stevenson has become the favorite tar-getofTribbleReese,andbothhaveflourishedasaresult.Reeseissecond in the Big South with 13 touchdown passes, with six of those going to Stevenson. Stevenson, is tied for third in the conference in touchdown catches with those six. The Sophomore also leads the Bucs with 33 catches for 407 yards. The pair connected seven times for 143 yards in the loss at Stony Brook, with Stevenson touchdown catches (3) accounting for all three CSU scores on the day. Vs. FBS OpponentsGoing into the 2008 season, Charleston Southern had played four games against FBS (Formerly Division I-A) competition. With the losses at Miami (Fla.) and Miami (OH), the Bucs are 0-6 all-time against FBS opponents. Below is a list of CSU’s FBS contests.

Vs. Non D-I OpponentsIncluding their victory over North Greenville (Sept. 27), the Bucs have won nine-straight games against non-Division-I opponents, dating back to the 2005 season. Eight of those wins have come against Divi-sion II schools, with one coming against an NAIA school. The team’s last loss to a non-Division I opponent came on Sept. 10, 2005 at home to Presbyterian, who was Division II at the time. Charleston Southern is 13-6 under Coach Jay Mills against all non-Division I opposition (holding a 13-20 record against Division I opponents).

Championship Game HonoredThe memorable 2005 Big South Championship game was honored as part of the Big South’s 25th Anniversary “Best of the Best” list of the top-25 moments in the League’s history. The game, played in honor of fallen teammate Eddie Gadson, ended in a bizarre series of events, with CSU emerging victorious in a double-overtime thriller. It wasthefirstBigSouthChampionshipforthefootballteam.



Moon RisingPlayingextensivelyintheCSUbackfieldasatruefreshman,running back DeMarcus Moon established himself as a legitimate threat on the ground. Moon led the team with 382 yards on 67 carries. The McDonough, Ga., native averaged a team-best 5.7 yards per attempt. On Oct. 6, 2007, in the game against Savannah State, Moon topped the 100-yard mark for thefirsttimeinhiscareer,carrying16timesfor103yardsinthecontest.Hisfirst-careertouchdowncameonSept.15,2007 against Johnson C. Smith. Moon, sidelined since the second week of the season, returned against N. Greenville after missing the previous two games. Moon regained the primary rushing duties against Savannah State and again enjoyed his most successful day of the season, rushing for a team-best 95 yards on 17 carries.

Dee Day InteruptedTransfer Dee Brown quickly became CSU’s primary offensive targetlastseason.Brownfinishedtheseasonwith69recep-tions for 898 yards and nine touchdowns, all team highs. He led the Big South in receptions and receiving yards, and was ranked in the top-25 in the NCAA in both categories. Brown, recognized as a pre-season Big South all-conference selection has been sidelined with a knee injury suffered in week two of the season against Wofford. He has not appeared in either of the last two games (Miami-Ohio, North Greenville) and it is uncertain what the time-table for his return wll be. CSU has had a WR lead the conference in receptions every yearinBigSouthfootballhistory(fivetotalseasons,since2002).

Run of the MillsHead Coach Jay Mills is in his sixth season as the head coach at CSU, and currently holds a career record of 31-33. Until last season, the Buccaneers had improved every sea-son under his leadership. The 2006 season set the bar high, though,astheBucswontheirfirstninegamesoftheyearbefore losses at Liberty and Coastal Carolina left the team witha9-2mark.The9-0markwascomingoffafive-gamewinning streak in 2005, giving CSU a combined 14-game winning streak, which was the second-longest in the country behind San Diego (18).

And some familiar ones ...Even though their eligibility is up, a couple of familiar faces can still

be found on the sidelines for CSU. During his offseason from Arena

ball, Collin Drafts returns for his second season as an assistant

coach for CSU. Drafts works with the quarterbacks after having set

every passing record in school history. All-Conference offensive

lineman Rick Howell has also taken off the helmet and put on the

The 2008 season will be Jay Mills’ sixth season at the helm of the Buccaneers’ ship, taking CSU from a 1-11 mark in 2003 to a Big South Conference champion-ship in 2005, and a school-record nine wins in 2006. Mills helped lead the Buccaneers to the nation’s second-longest winning streak at14gamesstretchingoverthe2005and2006seasons,garneringtheirfirstnational ranking in school history. Honored with the All-American Football Foundation’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2002, Mills was named the 2005 Big South Conference Coach of the Year, and the 2005 Buccaneers were named the “Team of the Year” by colleges-

ports.com. During his tenure at CSU, the Buccaneers have literally rewritten the record books offensively. Under his direction, CSU quarterback Collin Drafts became the school’s all-time leading passer and all-time leader in total offense in only three sea-sons. Mills is recognized nationally as a top offensive mind, having operated highly successful passing offenses at Har-vard and Boise State University prior to becoming CSU’s head coach. Mills served as the Crimson’s quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator for seven seasons, leading the school to high national rankings for total offense and establishing numer-ous school records. In 2001, Harvard committed the fewest turnovers of any Division I-AA school and ranked 11th nationally in total offense. In 2000, Harvard set school records for passing yards (2,885) and total yards (4,679). During those two seasons, eight offensive players earned All Ivy League honors. After serving three seasons as a graduate assistant at Notre Dame, one year under former South Carolina head coach Lou Holtz, Mills was named quarterbacks and passing game coordinator at Boise State. Mills helped guide Boise State to a pair of NCAA Division I-AA playoff appearances,

includingaberthinthenationalsemifinalgamein1990. Boise State was ranked second nationally in total offense in 1987.

Mills’ experience as a head coach came at the Uni-versity of Minnesota Morris, where he helped lead the program from NAIA status to NCAA Division II status in 1993.

Mills and his wife, Kimberly, reside in Goose Creek and are the parents of six children; Stacey Jo (24), Josh (20), Jared (19), Chris (17), Derek (16) and David (11), and on July 12, 2008, the Mills added son-in-law Ryan Tié to the family.

SAVANNAH, Ga. – In a sloppy affair with a combined nine turn-overs, the Charleston Southern defense came up big when they needed two as the Buccaneers won their third-straight game, 29-20 over Savannah State. The CSU defense got two big stops, one at the end of each half, to help the Bucs even their record at 3-3, while Savannah State fell to 3-4, losing for just the second time at home this season.

Josh Mitchell led the CSU defensive corps with seven tackles, while Quinton Johnson had 3.5 of the team’s 10 tackles-for-loss on the day. It was Mitchel and Chris Kuzdale who led the stop on asecond-and-goalplayattheendofthefirsthalf,keepingSSUout of the endzone and giving CSU a 26-14 halftime advantage. Kamalu Umu, recovered a bad snap with just 1:56 on the clock to seal the victory for CSU.

“I was disappointed with the turnovers, but thought our defense came up huge,” said Head Coach Jay Mills. “I thought we had taken a big step last game in working on the fundamentals and learning not to beat yourself. We had some costly penalties and inopportune times and our lack of execution was disappointing. The good news is that it is all correctable, and it’s nice to be cor-recting it after a win.”

STONY BROOK, N.Y. - Charleston Southern’s first Big Southgame was won in the last moments, their second went the other way as CSU fell 20-19 to Stony Brook, Saturday. The victory gave SBUtheirfirstBigSouthvictoryonhomecoming,movingthemto2-5, while CSU fell back below .500 at 3-4. Both teams now have a 1-1 Big South record.

A touchdown pass with 1:06 on the clock proved the difference as Stony Brook took a one-point lead and held on for the victory. Leading for the majority of the game, CSU trailed for just 3:22 in the game, but found themselves on the short-end of the score-board when it was over.

“I really want to give credit to Stony Brook,” said CSU Head Coach Jay Mills. “They came out and played very hard and really played well. It was a ballgame that seemed like it came down to one play, but really as you look at it there were about 20 different plays that if you change one of them, the entire look of the game changes. It hurts and is disappointing, but I felt like we played well enough in all three phases of the game.”

Defensively for CSU, it was Josh Warrior with 11 stops, while Chris Kuzdale forced a fumble, his second of the season. CSU also had four tackles for loss on the day and one sack by Dorein Perkins.

“My hat goes off to Coach Rocco and the Flames,” said CSU Head Coach Jay Mills. “They have really got things rolling here and played extremely well. Pair that with the fact that we really hurt ourselves and it leads to a very unfavorable score for us. Aside from football, though, I am so pleased to be associated with two teams that are here for more than just football, but really are about advancing the Kingdom of God and doing things for His glory.”
