West Georgia Wolves
OUTLOOK
THE OUTLOOK
P
Preseason optimism is always the order of the day
in college football. Everyone is undefeated, everything is new and fresh, and the possibilities for
the coming season seem endless.
The 2008 West Georgia Wolves are no different. And, for the Wolves, the part about everything being “new” and “fresh” is more than applicable.
The Wolves are starting over in 2008.
At the helm of West Georgia’s
program is first year coach Daryl
Dickey. The veteran mentor was
named last December to the post,
and was given a daunting task:
return UWG football to the ranks
of contenders in the Gulf South
Conference and in NCAA
Division II.
Will this be an easy job? Hardly,
but the new coach doesn’t blink
when it comes to answering the
question as to whether West Georgia’s program can return to a competitive, possibly dominant level.
Dickey took the West Georgia job with no
magic wand or potion. Instead of a quick fix, he
made a commitment to “do this the right way.”
With Dickey, it isn’t just lip service. He wants the
building, to use a cliché, to be from the ground
up.
“We don’t want to be a rollover program,” says
the coach, adding, “We want kids who will be
here for the long haul.”
want to be known
“ We
as a team that is upbeat,
physical, and attacking in
nature. And, we will be a
disciplined team. We want
to play good defense and
special teams, then try to
score some points.
“Yes,” declared Dickey, emphatically. “There is
no question that it can be done. This university
has the ideal academic environment, social environment, and proximity to Atlanta. And, with the
quality of high school football played in this state,
I’d say all the ingredients are there.”
”
~Coach Dickey
To accomplish that, Dickey
knew he needed a top staff to begin the process of mining a deep
pool of talent in Georgia high
schools. The job is to identify
the right players, bring them to
Carrollton and keep them here.
The building plan is in place.
The people to implement the
plan are also in place. Now, the
question is, what happens on the
field in 2008?
“We want to be known as a
team that is upbeat, physical, and
attacking in nature,” says the coach. “And,” he
adds, “We will be a disciplined team. We want to
play good defense and special teams, then try to
score some points.”
One thing is very clear: Daryl Dickey is in this
for long haul. He’s a competitor and a winner,
and his West Georgia Wolves will take on the
personality of their head coach.
Now a look at the 2008 West Georgia Wolves …

West Georgia Wolves
THE OUTLOOK
squad member A.J. Mitchell (6-2, 217, Fr.) and incoming frosh
recruit Randy Sides (6-3, 225).
Offense
Not a great deal of experience returns
on the offensive side of the ball for the
2008 season. Several experienced hands
are back at the wide receiver and tailback
positions, however experience is very thin
up front and at quarterback.
Matt Bailey
Along the line of scrimmage, center
Matt Bailey is the lone holdover. Bailey
(6-1, 287, Sr.) was a mainstay up front
a year ago, playing through injuries to
anchor UWG’s blocking corps. He should
be a candidate for post-season honors this
season.
While Bailey is the clear leader to claim the center spot, competition should be very keen for the other positions along the Wolves’
offensive line. A combination of returning squad members and a
large number of very exciting recruits are expected to stage a battle
royal to earn playing time at both guards and both tackles.
The most intriguing name along the blocking front for the
Wolves is that of Patrick Swoopes. A transfer from Division I
Alabama-Birmingham, Swoopes is a 6-4, 300-pound junior from
Starkville, Miss. He brings excellent size and promise to the battle
for one tackle spot.
Derek Jones, a redshirt freshman from Gilmer County, was part
of the UWG program a year ago. Jones is 6-4, 270, worked hard in
the off-season and improved during the spring. Others in the picture
at tackle include a host of exciting freshmen. Eric Sheker (6-8,
305), Todd Kidd (6-5, 305) and Sean Beeler (6-5, 290) all have
very bright futures. How much action the freshmen get this fall will
depend, in part, on how quickly they acclimate themselves to the
demands of the college game.
The outlook at the guard spots resembles the battle at tackle.
Spencer Romero (6-2, 317, So.) and Matt Johnson (6-0, 304,
So.) are returning squad members and in the picture. Also, West
Alabama transfer Kyle Yates (5-11, 268) is a redshirt freshman who
joined Johnson and Romero during spring practice.
From the recruiting class, freshman Jimmile Freeman (6-2,
330) is a very promising prospect. So, too, are other freshmen:
Jordan Ritchey (6-3, 285), Darius
Jackson (6-4, 270) and Shawn Corrigan
(6-0, 275). Youngsters behind Bailey at
the center spot include sophomore Cody
Wood (6-2, 250) and Ukandu Emeonye
(6-1, 285).
UWG has a pair of lettermen returning at the tight end position. Senior Grant
Jones (6-2, 211) and junior Adam White
(6-3, 216) lead the charge at the spot.
Also contending for duty will be returning
On the perimeter, UWG is excited by its collection of promising
wide receivers. Several bring experience to the mix; others are young
and talented. Seniors Ron Dickson (6-0, 206) and James Crowley
(6-2, 203) were mainstays a year ago, while junior Steven Billue
(6-2, 190) also saw plenty of playing time.
That trio will compete for playing time with plenty of potential
candidates. Senior transfer Wilson Kimble (6-3, 180) impressed
during spring practice. Sophomore Johnny Pope (6-2, 161), freshman Carl Snapp (6-3, 188) and sophomore Kyle Freeman (5-7,
165) have all been apart of the UWG
program.
On the incoming freshman side, the
Wolves believe they have both quality and
quantity. Some of the names to watch
include Brandon Clark (6-2, 185), Ely
Payne (6-3, 176), James Bull (5-11, 160)
and Calvin Dennis (5-10, 175). Also in
the mix are Eric Josovitz (5-11, 180),
Silas Rogers (5-11, 180), and Andrew
Smith (5-11, 180).
Ron Dickson
Much of Dickey’s preseason focus will
be on the quarterback position. Third-year sophomore Sean Gray
(6-1, 206) saw very limited playing time a year ago, but he’s the only
signal caller on the squad to have ever played in a college game. Gray
is expected to battle with redshirt freshman Kyle Padgett (6-2,
224) for the starting job during fall camp.
Beyond Gray and Padgett, squad member Chris Hirschfield
(6-1, 190, So.) returns to battle. Also at the spot are several incoming freshmen: Bobby Ervin (6-1, 175), Andrew Smith (5-10,
170) and Andrew Mathieson (6-3, 210).
An old friend returns to the West Georgia offense in 2008: the
fullback position. Battling for the spot is junior Stewart Cook (511, 220), who saw duty at the spot two seasons ago. Also in the hunt
are freshman Austin Albany (5-9, 217) and sophomore Eddie
Floyd (5-11, 215).
The tailback position has several players with limited experience.
Junior Joey Harris (5-10, 202) is UWG’s returning rushing leader,
having gained 168 yards on 40 carries in 2007. However, Harris suffered an ankle injury in the Wolves’ final spring scrimmage and has
worked very hard over the summer to be ready for the season.
Yusuf Holloway (5-8, 195, So.) and George Summerset
(5-10, 180, So.) gained 103 and 76 yards, respectively, last season.
Summerset earned his initial collegiate start in the season finale at
archrival Valdosta State.
Junior Quentin Roman may also figure in the tailback picture.
The Lenoir-Rhyne transfer is a former All-South Atlantic Conference performer from his days with the Bulldogs. Also, juco transfer
Dustin Lindsey (6-0, 220, Jr.) is a former Tennessee signee who
may figure in Dickey’s plans before the Wolves get deep into the
season.

THE OUTLOOK
Defense
Defense was a major struggle for West Georgia in 2007. Opponents shattered the record book as the Wolves surrendered yards
and points by the bushel. UWG must
improve, quickly and dramatically, for a
turnaround in the program’s fortunes in
2008.
The Wolves’ top two returning tacklers
are both linebackers. Senior Ray Mitchell
(5-10, 200) seems entrenched at the strong
side, or Sam, backer spot. Michael Reardon (5-11, 211, Jr.) is two-year letterman
and plays in the middle.
Four returning squad members play
behind Mitchell. They include Mitchell
Dean (6-2, 235, Jr.), Willie Barnes (6-2, 214, Fr.) Alex Coleman
(6-0, 202, Jr.), and Kendricus Matthews (5-11, 211, Fr.). Behind
Reardon is a trio of highly regarded newcomers. This group includes
John Weatherford (6-1, 213), Nick Popiel (6-3, 220) and Kyle
Bowman (6-1, 230).
Ray Mitchell
The battle for playing time at the Will, or weak side, linebacker
spot should also be very spirited. Junior Timothy Gregory (6-2,
235) will be among the contenders, as are returning squad members
Marcellus Hunter (6-0, 200, So.) and Andrew Geschke (6-2,
218, So.). Also, frosh recruit Robert Hill (6-0, 195) could develop
into a contender for playing time.
Along the line, the Wolves’ new four-man front scheme will
feature a few holdovers and many new faces. In the middle, senior
Brandon Thompson (5-10, 233) will
contend for snaps at the tackle post. Other
candidates there include squad member
Chandler Weatherby (5-11, 291, Fr.)
and a pair of incoming freshman recruits:
Juan Pickett (6-1, 270) and Dante Reid
(6-2, 240).
Newcomers are also expected to
dominate the battle for the job at the nose
position. Prep signees Terrance Turman
(6-1, 295) and Willie Pitts (6-2, 290)
bring lots of promise and great size to
Michael Reardon
the UWG program. Others who may be
in the picture include James White (6-0, 260, So.) and Gregory
Rodriguez (6-3, 290, Fr.).
The end positions are like the rest of the defense: a mix of the
young prospects with a sprinkling of holdovers. Most of the latter
have limited experience. Seniors Nick Hensley (6-1, 216) and
Kelvin Ferrell (6-5, 235) are both three-year lettermen and have
started games. Beyond them, however, none of the remaining end
contenders has played the position at the collegiate level.
Other candidates for playing time on the outside include redshirt
freshman Duke Banks (6-3, 218), sophomore Brendan Nestor
8
West Georgia Wolves
(6-5, 240), sophomore James White (6-0, 260), sophomore Brett
Collier (6-3, 224), and junior Joshua Mitchell (6-2, 241). All
have been part of the UWG program and were part of the off-season
program and spring drills. Newcomers may also figure in the fight
for time at defensive end. Candidates include Darrius Wilborn
(6-0, 265, Fr.) and Rene Leon (6-0, 220, So.).
In the secondary, UWG returns twoyear regular Marcus Wise (5-9, 168,
Sr.) at one corner. Sophomores Waylon
Kimble (5-10, 170) and Dwate Strickland (6-1, 187) are also contenders to see
plenty of action at the corner spots. Others
in the debate include redshirt freshman
Dontavious Smith (6-0, 175), and
incoming freshmen Tre Hudson (5-10,
165), and Brandon Larkin (5-11, 180).
Sophomore letterman Wymon Kelley
Marcus Wise
(5-11, 186) is among the top contenders
to win the job at the rover position. Transfer Gregory Carson (6-0,
190), frosh recruit James McGee (5-10, 178) and newcomer Eddie
Brown (5-11, 180) are also at the position.
At free safety, sophomore Braxton Foster (5-10, 180) came
through spring practice as a top contender for the job. Other names
in the mix include incoming freshmen Will Jones (6-1, 205) and
Justin Beard (6-1, 200), returning squad member Nicholas Pavao
(6-0, 165, So.) and redshirt freshman Seth Satterfield (6-1, 205, Fr.).
Specialists
Special teams a year ago at West Georgia were a mixed bag.
With Jared Guberman (5-9, 197) the Wolves had a very good
punter and a superb kicker. Guberman was
among the nation’s most accurate field goal
specialists, missing only twice en route to
winning All-GSC, All-Southeast Region
and All-America honors.
If one talented placement specialist
wasn’t enough, the Wolves this summer
welcomed back Adi Brkic (6-4, 190, So.)
to the program. As a freshman in 1995,
Brkic kicked three field goals of over 50
yards, including a 54-yard boot to set a
new school record. His range, especially on
kickoffs, could be a factor this fall.
Jared Guberman
Beyond the kickers, UWG also returns a very reliable long snap
specialist. Junior Micah Hurst (6-3, 200) has handled the job well
the last two seasons, and is an excellent athlete on punt coverage.
Good kicking games, however, require more than just good kicking, punting and snapping. In other areas, UWG’s special teams a
year ago were, to be charitable, abysmal. Kickoff and punt coverage
was too often exploited, the return game was generally unproductive, and the team was far too vulnerable to having punts blocked.
THE OUTLOOK
Beyond identifying the return specialists, much of preseason will
be devoted to an emphasis on special teams. An old football theory
says that the quickest equalizer for a young and building football
team is a top flight kicking game. Dickey doesn’t dispute that theory.
Coaching Staff
A mix of youth and experience will be alongside Dickey for the
2008 football season. A veteran coach with excellent connections,
the Wolves’ new boss assembled an outstanding cast of teachers,
recruiters and strategists to help lead UWG football back to its
rightful place.
Offensively, veteran Jeff Fela will tutor the offensive line and
will serve as offensive coordinator. Fela had previously worked with
Dickey at Presbyterian, and the Wolves’ boss has tremendous confidence in Fela’s abilities.
Also on the offensive side, Lamont Seward will handle UWG’s
wide receivers and help coordinate the team’s academic support program. A pair of promising graduate assistants will also work with the
offense. Ryan Locke will work with the fullbacks and tight ends,
while Chad Pickett handles the tailbacks. Dickey will serve as his
own quarterback coach.
On the defensive side, James Colzie joins the staff as defensive
coordinator and will tutor the secondary. Colzie, a former Florida
State star, last season coached defensive backs and coordinated special teams at rival and Division II champ Valdosta State.
Russell Rothar, a former Presbyterian star, is UWG’s linebacker
coach. Rothar was recruited by and played for Dickey at PC. Louis
LeBlanc is UWG’s defensive line coach. Also, the former Alabama
aide serves as the Wolves’ recruiting coordinator. Also working on
the defensive side for UWG are grad assistants Charlie Wilburn
(defensive line and recruiting) and Robert Walden (secondary).
Also, Dave Ware returns to work with the kicking and punting
specialists.
A week later, the Wolves return to a Carrollton, but in a new
venue: Richards Stadium at Central High School. UWG faces SIAC
and state rival Clark Atlanta at Richards, a move necessitated by the
rebuilding of Grisham Stadium.
UWG begins league play in Week 3, heading to Arkadelphia,
Ark., for a date with Ouachita Baptist. Next, the Wolves are in
Carrollton for their debut on Grisham’s new rug vs. North Alabama.
Following an open date, the Wolves begin their October slate with
a visit from Henderson State. After the Reddies come to call, UWG
will travel to Arkansas-Monticello, welcome Arkansas Tech to town
for Homecoming, and then provide the Homecoming opponent for
West Alabama a week later in Livingston.
The season’s final two weeks as challenging as possible. First,
UWG travels to Cleveland Field for a Thursday night TV game with
Valdosta State. This marks the first time since 1994 that the Blazers
have not provided the opposition for West Georgia’s regular season
finale. That comes nine days later, in Carrollton, when the Delta
State Statesmen visit Grisham Stadium.
Overview
The road back to respectability, contention, and championships
won’t be an easy for the West Georgia Wolves. However, it is clear
to all that this program has taken the first steps. A quality coaching staff, a roster of hard-working and positive attitude players has
already helped lay the first level of foundation.
How will this translate into the won-loss record in 2008? No
one knows. However, the promise for a very bright future for West
Georgia Wolves football is very much real.
Schedule
A football team that plays in the Gulf South Conference is guaranteed a rugged schedule. The GSC is the deepest, most demanding
NCAA Division II league in the nation. Not only does no conference go deeper in quality teams, the excellence of the league’s top
programs is unquestioned.
Valdosta State is the defending national champion, while North
Alabama and Delta State were clearly among the nation’s top five
teams is season ago. UWG plays them all in 2008, though not in
succession as the end of the schedule, which was the case the past
two years.
The Wolves open the season with a pair of non-conference game.
First is a visit to Birmingham, Ala., for a date with Division I-FCS
Samford. The game marks the first meeting with the Bulldogs since
the 1992 season opener.

COACHES
HEAD COACH DARYL DICKEY
D
“Daryl Dickey was born to be a head football coach,” is how
West Georgia Director of Athletics Ed Murphy sums up the
man he selected to resurrect West Georgia’s moribund football
program.
Certainly, few coaches anywhere can
boast of the pedigree, experience, and record
of excellence to compare with Dickey. Also,
as he begins his reclamation project at UWG,
it’s worth noting that this won’t be the first
time Dickey has undertaken the challenge
of breathing life into a once-proud football
program.
In 1997 Dickey entered as the new head
football coach at Presbyterian. His first Blue
Hose team came home with a mark of 5-6.
By his fourth season on the job Presbyterian
was posting a mark of 8-2, and shattering
offensive records in the process.
The 8-2 record posted by PC in 2000 was
the school’s best record in over two decades.
Their two-year aggregate record of 15-6 was
the best for back-to-back Blue Hose seasons
since the 1978 and 79 seasons.
Following the 2000 campaign Dickey
was on his way to Florida State to begin a
six-year stint as quarterbacks coach for Bobby
Bowden’s Seminoles. More success and huge
offensive numbers again resulted. Florida
State won three Atlantic Coast Conference
titles; two of his quarterbacks were named
ACC Freshmen of the Year.
Winning was part of Dickey’s makeup
long before his coaching career began. As a
player at the University of Tennessee it was
Dickey who guided the Volunteers to the
1985 Southeastern Conference title. And, it
was the Wolves’ newest boss who stunned the
college football world when he took home
MVP honors from the 1986 Sugar Bowl the
Tennessee administered a stunning 35-7 beat
down over highly favored Miami.
Then, there is the pedigree. Daryl Dickey
grew up at the knee of his legendary dad,
Doug Dickey. He saw his dad guide the
Tennessee Vols and Florida Gators as the two
most notable stops of a brilliant coaching
career. Later, the elder Dickey also gained
notoriety when he returned to Tennessee as a
highly successful athletic director.
In between wearing the orange jersey in
Neyland Stadium and his last two coaching stops, Dickey worked with success at
36
West Georgia Wolves
a variety of stops. He worked as both a
G.A. and assistant at Tennessee, coached
the quarterbacks in 1989 at Florida State,
and was the offensive coordinator and
quarterbacks coach at both Kentucky and
Georgia Southern.
When it comes to college football in
the south, the name Dickey stands for
winning. West Georgia fans believe that
the road to returning the Wolves’ program
to the ranks of GSC and Division II
contenders took on a straighter course the
day Daryl Dickey said “yes” to the offer
of becoming West Georgia’s head football
coach.
Beyond his football accomplishments
at Tennessee, Dickey also earned his B.A.
in Sociology from the Knoxville institution. He is married to the former Kendall
George. The Dickeys have three children: daughter Karis and sons Dallas James and Drew.

OPPONENTS
GULF SOUTH CONFERENCE
A
Academic excellence, 43 National Championships and a leadership role in the NCAA’s Division II make the Gulf
South Conference (GSC) something special. As a charter member of D-II, the league’s 15 universities in six southeastern states enters its 39th year of setting the standards nationally, always breaking new ground.
In the summer of 1970, six college presidents met to talk
about athletics; when the meeting ended, a new league emergedthe Mid-South Conference-started by, and to this day run by,
the CEOs, the first in NCAA history. It is that CEO-control and
involvement that makes the league work and its 14 championships (football; men’s & women’s cross country, men’s & women’s
soccer; volleyball, men’s & women’s basketball, men’s & women’s
tennis, men’s & women’s golf; softball and baseball) so bitterly
contested in a collegial manner.
From that point forward, the GSC has been giant steps ahead
of the D-II pack. Dating back to 1997, the league has found neutral sites paying sizeable guarantees for most of its team championships. NCAA Conventions regularly feature GSC-proposed or
-inspired legislation. No one wins more regionals or earns more
NCAA post-season bids. In 2004, the league purchased its own
new construction office space. But the crowning moment came in
2005-06, when the GSC debuted its highly successful “GSC-TV
Live” package which included nine football games (now 10) and
its men’s & women’s basketball tournament finals. Add to that
its web-TV show, “GSC Sports Weekly,” and the broadbanding
of most of its championships and you can see why the GSC is a
Conference paving the way into the 21st century.
We take pride in our 43 National Team Championships in 12
sports and more than 100 regional titles, especially because there
is no sacrifice on the academic side, where GSC student-athletes
regularly earn Academic All-America. The Conference added two
more Titles in 2007- 08 with Valdosta State claiming the Football
crown and West Florida winning the Men’s Golf trophy in a
playoff versus fellow league member North Alabama.
Delta State, Florence State (now North Alabama), Jacksonville
State, Livingston (now West Alabama), Tennessee-Martin and
Troy State were the charter members. Scheduling problems for
the 1970-71 academic year limited the GSC to football, won by
Jacksonville State. In 1971, the addition of Southeast Louisiana
(SELA) and Nichols State increased the membership to eight.
The league opened an office in Hammond, LA, changed its name
to the Gulf South Conference and began championships in nine
men’s sports. Mississippi College and Northwestern Louisiana
(NWLA, now Northwestern State) joined in 1972 and two years
later, NELA left for Division I with SELA and Nicholls State following in 1979.
The conference continued with seven teams until 1981, when
the CEOs admitted Valdosta State, followed by West Georgia
(1983). In 1991, Tennessee-Martin and Troy State went Division
44
West Georgia Wolves
I, briefly dropping the GSC back to seven members. An aggressive expansion under the guidence of new Commissioner Nate
Salant resulted in ten new members: Lincoln Memorial (199293); Alabama-Huntsville, Henderson State, Central Arkansas
and Mississippi University for Women (1993-94); West Florida
(1994-95); and Arkansas-Monticello, Arkansas Tech, Montevallo and Southern Arkansas (1995-96). Jacksonville State went
Division I at the end of 1992-93. Mississippi College dropped to
Division III at the end of 1995-96, and was replaced by Christian
Brothers to keep the Conference at 16 schools. In July 2000, the
GSC welcomed Harding University and Ouachita Baptist University, making it the largest NCAA conference at any level with
18 schools. MUW dropped its athletics program at the end of the
2002-03 season, decreasing the membership to 17. The Conference decreased to 15 teams in 2006-07 when Central Arkansas
moved to Division I and Lincoln Memorial moved to the South
Atlantic Conference.
Former Commissioner Jim McCullough brought the GSC
office to Birmingham. Current Commissioner, Nate Salant began
his tenure in October, 1992. He is assisted by Assistant Commissioner for Media and Public Affairs Michael Anderson, Assistant
Sports Information Directors Michael Banks and Eric SanInocencio and Senior Woman Administrator Andrea Anderson. The
Chairman of the GSC Board of Directors is Dr. David Rankin
(Southern Arkansas). Joining him on the executive committee are
Vice Chair Dr. Beheruz Sethna (West Georgia) and past-Chair
Dr. Robert Brown (Arkansas Tech). The Supervisors of Officials
are Bill Johnson (Football), John Caldwell (Basketball-West Division) and Mike Murphy (Basketball-East Division).

REVIEW
2007 YEAR IN REVIEW
F
For a campaign that began with such high hopes, the
2007 football season was a major low point for the West
Georgia Wolves. From the giddiness of an opening day
road win, the Wolves ended the year with a mark of but
2-9.
The season’s biggest highlights were the two victories. UWG
whipped Clark Atlanta on the Panthers’ home turf to open the
year a t 1-0. Victory number two, however, didn’t happen until the
season’s seventh game as the Wolves vanquished West Alabama on a
last second field goal.
There were also weeks when UWG acquitted itself well against
top competition. The problem was sustaining the execution for 60
full minutes. For 30 minutes UWG was leading Division I-FCS
Georgia Southern, for three quarters the Wolves were eyeball-to-eyeball with Henderson State. However, the numbers game caught up
with UWG on these, and other occasions.
Individually, Jared Guberman was the most prominent of the
Wolves in 2007. The junior specialist from Boca Raton, Fla., turned
in an impressive season as both a kicker and punter. He connected
on 15-of-17 field goals and 22-of-25 points after touchdown. Also,
he punted 73 times for a 38.6-yard average, including 13 fair catches
and 23 punts inside the opponent’s 20-yard line.

September 1, 2007 • Panther Stadium • Atlanta, Georgia – Opening day is a day for optimism. This was one was no different for the West
Georgia Wolves as they traveled to Atlanta for a date with the Clark-Atlanta
Panthers. UWG was hoping its newly re-tooled offensive attack could catch
CAU and their loaded defensive unit off-balance, at least enough to secure a
win on the sun-baked Astroturf of Panther Stadium.
Mission accomplished, though the 23-11 win didn’t come without a few
anxious moments. After jumping to an early, 13-0 lead, the Wolves didn’t
put this one away until Keats Baldwin connected on a fourth quarter TD
strike to Jimmy Howard. It was the second of the day for the duo, and
provided UWG with its final margin.
Beyond the Baldwin-to-Howard combination, the Wolves also got solid
special teams play. Transfer Jared Guberman made his West Georgia debut
a memorable one by hitting on three-of-three field goal attempts, converting
both PAT kicks, and punting for a 46.3 yards per kick average.
The Wolves departed a stadium better known as the setting for the
movie DrumLine with a new foundation for optimism and a record of 1-0.

September 8, 2007 • Paulson Stadium • Statesboro, Georgia – One
couldn’t help but be a bit nostalgic as the West Georgia Wolves traveled
below the gnat line for their second game of the season. It was UWG’s first
visit in 13 years to Paulson Stadium, the scene of arguably the most stirring
win in the program’s history, and easily the biggest victory ever for a West
Georgia football team.
And, for 30 minutes, this one had a bit of that 1994 feel to it. UWG
raced to a 21-10 halftime lead in front of 21,489 fans, the largest crowd to
ever witness a West Georgia football game. However, college football games
are 60-minute affairs, as Georgia Southern reminded the Wolves with five
unanswered touchdowns en route to a 45-21 decision.
Southern, making its debut under new coach Chris Hatcher, struck
first when Jayson Foster rambled 54 yards for a score on the game’s opening possession. However, UWG answered quickly with a four-yard scoring
run by James Kennebrew on the Wolves’ first possession of the night.
After an Eagles field goal, UWG answered with a pair of second quarter
touchdowns. First, Keats Baldwin connected with Daniel Johnson on
a seven-yard score. Later, Baldwin scrambled in from 11 yards out for the
11-point halftime margin.
The second half, unfortunately, was a track meet with Foster running
both the opening and anchor legs. GSU’s diminutive quarterback sprinted
56 yards for a third quarter TD to cut the Wolves’ lead to 21-17. Zeke
2007 YEAR IN REVIEW
Rozier then burst 41 yards for a late, third quarter scored to give the Eagles
the lead for good.
In the final period GSC added three more touchdowns. Rozier and
Foster ran for one apiece, and Foster hooked up with Michael McIntosh
for an 81-yard throw-and-catch.
Though the game was a loss, UWG came out of its trip to Georgia
Southern with some positives. Despite having 30 fewer scholarships, the
Wolves play eyeball-to-eyeball with Southern for three quarters. To do it in
front of a large, hostile crowd in the first game of the Hatcher Era at Southern gave West Georgia hope for better things the remainder of the season.

September 15, 2007 • Grisham Stadium • Carrollton, Georgia – A
week earlier the West Georgia Wolves suffered a second half explosion at
the hands of the Georgia Southern Eagles. In their 2007 GSC and home
opener, unfortunately, the Wolves faced an Arkansas Tech team that was
clicking for 60 full minutes.
The result was a 52-34 shootout with the Wonder Boys claiming the
victory. The defeat spoiled an excellent night for the UWG offense. However, they couldn’t keep up the passing onslaught of Tech’s Cole Barthel
and his six TD passes.
The Wolves kept pace for much of the game. Trailing but 31-24 late in
the third quarter, UWG had its golden opportunity. Wes Myers pounced
on a Tech fumble on the eight, setting up the Wolves with a first-and-goal.
A three-yard gain, a three-yard loss, and a third-down sack resulted in Jared
Guberman hitting a 27-yard field goal to cut the deficit to but four, 31-27.
Arkansas Tech was in total control the rest of the way. Barthel ran for a
39-yard score, and then threw TD passes five-and-six. A Ryan Poole scoring pass to Justin Poole gave the Wolves their final score in the game’s last
minute.

September 22, 2007 • Setzler Field • Newberry, South Carolina
– Ouch! Sometimes the score of a football game doesn’t accurately reflect
what happened on the field. Unfortunately, this was not such a game. The
Newberry Indians handed the West Georgia Wolves the most one-sided
beating in UWG’s 27-year modern football history.
Newberry, the defending South Atlantic Conference champs, took
control of this game early and never let up. They dominated at the line
of scrimmage with a power running game that set the tone for the night.
Newberry’s first three scoring drives covered 80, 87 and 68 yards, almost
exclusively on the ground.
The Indians also excelled on special teams, dominating the kicking
game with a pair of long touchdown returns. Offensively, UWG moved
the ball well at times, but losing three fumbles and giving up a pair of pass
interceptions prevented the Wolves from joining Newberry in a shootout.

September 29, 2007 • Grisham Stadium • Carrollton, Georgia
– Though the 2007 football season was one of tumult for the West Georgia
Wolves, this was a team that maintained its effort and showed its character
throughout the long campaign. This Homecoming game vs. Henderson
State was a perfect example.
UWG came into this one at 1-3 and licking its wounds following the
previous week’s debacle at Newberry. Henderson State, meanwhile, boasted
of one of the Gulf South Conference’s top programs, despite its tough loss
at the hands of powerhouse Delta State.
For three quarters the smell of upset was in the air. However, the final
15 minutes belonged to the Reddies. HSU scored 27 unanswered points in
the final period to spoil homecoming with a 37-17 decision.
The game’s first half was perhaps UWG’s top defensive performance of
the season. The Wolves held Henderson’s attack to but a field goal, five first
downs, and but 79 total yards. However, UWG still trailed thanks to, again,
poor special teams play. A 72-yard punt return by Greg Godfrey allowed
HSU to carry a 10-7 lead into halftime.
The third quarter belonged to the Wolves. Keats Baldwin gave West
Georgia the lead with a 49-yard scoring pass to Jimmy Howard on the first

play of the period. Later in the quarter the Wolves drove to the Henderson
State seven, setting up a Jared Guberman field goal from 24 yards and a
17-10 lead with 2:37 left in the third.
From that point, Henderson State took total control. The Reddies tied
the game with a six-play, 68-yard scoring drive that ended with a TD on the
first play of the fourth quarter. UWG then drove to midfield and was held
on a curious fourth-and-one attempt, turning the ball over to the Reddies at
the 50.
From there, it took Henderson State only three plays to claim the lead.
Roch Charpentier passed 25 yards to Godfrey to claim a 24-17 lead.
Two more Reddies touchdowns later in the period accounted for the final
margin.

October 4, 2007 • First Security Stadium • Searcy, Arkansas – This
game had all the ingredients necessary to concoct a recipe for disaster. First,
the West Georgia Wolves found themselves saddled with the invidious
task of making a mid-week bus ride to Arkansas. That’s never an easy task,
especially when you’re making the trip saddled with a four-game losing.
And, coming off an epic-but-losing effort the week before at Homecoming
with Henderson, it was fair to wonder just how much the Wolves had left
in them.
Add one more factor to the mix: the venue and the opponent. No West
Georgia team had ever won a game in First Security Stadium. On this night
the Harding Bisons’ offensive unit made certain that UWG’s all-time record
in First Security Stadium remained winless.
Harding exploded for 47 points over the first three quarters in a 49-31
win over the Wolves. The Bisons posted 548 yards offense, netted 31 first
downs, and quarterback David Knighton threw for five touchdowns.
West Georgia did its best to hang in the game offensively. Quarterback
Ryan Poole completed 31-of-49 for 369 yards, three touchdowns, and no
interception. All three of the TD passes went to Jimmy Howard, equaling
a school record last set by Ron Dixon in the 1996 win over Valdosta State.
However, the rushing game again struggled with only 66 net yards, and the
Wolves lost four fumbles.
The defeat dropped West Georgia to 1-5 on the season, 0-3 in Gulf
South Conference play.

October 13, 2007 • Grisham Stadium • Carrollton, Georgia – The
West Georgia Wolves had their shortcomings in 2007; 2-9 records don’t
happen by accident. However, this team also had its strengths. The most
tangible of those was quarterback Ryan Poole throwing to a bevy of good
receivers. The intangible was a good attitude. No matter the adversity and
no matter the numbers on the scoreboard, this team played hard.
This victory over West Alabama was ample evidence of all of the above.
First, Poole was brilliant. The senior from Hartwell netted GSC Player of
the Week honors for his performance vs. West Alabama, completing 32of-47 for 367 yards and four touchdowns to four difference receivers. The
Wolves needed every bit of it, too, in coming from an early, 13-point deficit
to claim their first win since the season opener vs. Clark Atlanta.
West Alabama jumped into seeming control early in this one. The Tigers had two long field goal drives on their fist two possessions, then missed
a short field goal following their third. That miss was to be a predictor of

things to come later in the day for the visitors. UWA pushed its lead to 13-0
in the second quarter, driving 63 yards in nine plays for a TD on a James
Reiter-to-Dwiuan White pass. With the Wolves’ recent history, even their
most optimistic of fans feared yet another blowout was about to take place.
Those fears were erased on UWG’s next possession, a our-play, 70-yard
scoring drive. Poole hit Jimmy Howard on a 32-yard scoring strike for the
TD, and UWG was back into the game. One drive later, they were more
than that as Poole and Ron Dickson connected on a six-yard touchdown
strike and a 14-13 lead with 1:57 to play in the half.
Unfortunately, West Alabama didn’t stay down long. A 12-play, 63-yard
drive that took only 1:46 put the Tigers on top with a Tyrone Tomlin sixyard scoring run. That gave UWA a 20-14, halftime advantage.
After swapping third quarter touchdowns, the Tigers carried a 28-21
lead into the final period. UWG whittled into the margin midway in the period when James Crowley hauled in Poole’s 11-yard scoring pass. However,
there was yet another special teams breakdown when Jared Guberman saw
his PAT attempt blocked.
Special teams breakdowns, however, were not limited to West Georgia.
Nursing a one point lead, West Alabama drove 10 plays to the Wolves’ eight
yard line, from where Mitch Warfield missed a third consecutive field goal
attempt. UWG had life with the ball at the 20 and 3:59 to play.
Poole was brilliant. He completed six consecutive passes, a string that
sandwiched his scramble for a first down. The drive’s big play came on a
fourth-and-one from the UWA 46, a 36-yard throw-and-catch with Patrick
Higgins that moved the ball to the Tigers’ 10. Three running plays and a
couple of West Alabama timeouts left the ball on the four with 53 seconds
to play, and from there Guberman was automatic to give the Wolves a 3028 lead.
West Alabama moved the ball to the Wolves’ 43, but Steve Cenatus
sacked Reiter on the game’s final play to preserve West Georgia second, and
final win of the 2007 season.

32 (OT)
October 20, 2007 • Grisham Stadium • Carrollton, Georgia – Pundits call it “fishing for points.” It’s the temptation to roll the dice on twopoint conversions when there is an odd score early in a football game. It’s a
risky practice and far more often-than-not it’s a practice that comes back to
bite a team in rump.
The West Georgia Wolves learned that lesson in painful fashion in their
home finale for the 2008 season. UWG found itself up 19-14 following a
third quarter TD run by James Kennebrew. The Wolves then eschewed
the almost certain PAT kick, opting instead for a two-point conversion attempt that, predictably, failed.
That point looked awfully big about one hour later. Jared Guberman
drilled a 44-yard field goal on the final play of regulation that should have
been the game winner. Instead, it tied the game at 29-29 and sent West
Georgia and Arkansas-Monticello into overtime for the second straight
season.
Unlike 2006 when West Georgia got its only win of the season with a
double OT win in Monticello; this one went to the Boll Weevils. UAM’s
Johnny Polite bolted over from three yards out to hand his team a 35-32,
overtime win.
Despite the loss, Ryan Poole again turned in a monster offensive game.
He completed 35-of-59 for 388 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Both scoring strikes went to Jimmy Howard, who caught six passes
for 163 yards.
Defensively, however, wasn’t as pretty. The Boll Weevils pounded out an
obscene 34 first downs and 489 rushing yards. John L. Williams paced the
onslaught with 275 yards on 31 carries, including three touchdowns. Williams’ 275 yards rushing was the most ever surrendered by a West Georgia
defense, breaking a 15-year old school record set by Surkano Edwards of
Samford in the 1992 season opener.

October 27, 2007 • Parker Field • Cleveland, Mississippi – It was
hard to not have a few trepidations before the Wolves traveled to Mississippi
for a date with the 10th ranked Delta State Statesmen. The Wolves were
coming off a devastating overtime setback to Arkansas-Monticello, while
DSU was locked in a fierce, three-way battle for the Gulf South Conference
title, and to battle for a berth in the NCAA Playoffs.
Despite all the above, this one was a game for a half. West Georgia
turned in perhaps its most impressive defensive effort of the season during
the game’s first 30 minutes. They held the very explosive Statesmen to but
43 yards rushing and seven first downs over the game’s first 30 minutes.
Still, the Wolves trailed at intermission, 14-9.
Jeremy Ricks was the big reason for the Statesmen’s halftime lead.
First, he capitalized on yet another special teams breakdown to return the
opening kickoff 92 yards for a TD. Then, late in the second quarter, he
combined with Garrett Dewitt on a 66-yard throw-and-catch to give Delta
State their halftime lead.
The Wolves’ points came early. After missing a field goal on their first
possession, UWG cashed in on their next. A Ty Morrell pass interception
set up the attack from the Statesmen 30, and three plays later Ryan Poole
connected with Daniel Johnson on a 23-yard touchdown pass. Later in
the period Wes Myers forced a DSU fumble, setting up a Jared Guberman field goal from 28 yards out to give the Wolves a 9-7 lead.
After intermission, it was all Delta State. Robert Watts picked off a
Poole aerial on the half ’s second play, setting up a Dedrick Wilson touchdown run to give the Statesmen a 21-9 lead. Wilson and Ricks later ran for
scores, while Dewitt passed to Eric Marshall for a fourth quarter TD to
account for the day’s final margin.

November 3, 2007 • Braly Municipal Stadium • Florence, Alabama
– No team in America faced a tougher three-game stretch to close a season
than did the West Georgia Wolves. Three in a row on the road is tough
enough, but UWG was forced to close against three of the nation’s elite
power teams: Delta State, North Alabama and Valdosta State.
The sandwich game of this unenviable triumvirate was this trip to
Florence’s Braly Municipal Stadium for a date with the Lions. Just one week
after playing admirably against the Statesmen, UWG had little left to throw
at UNA. It showed on the scoreboard.
This one got off to a bit of a comical start as the first three snaps from
scrimmage results in three turnovers. The comedy of errors began when the
Lions’ Eric Denson picked off a Ryan Poole pass. UWG’s Marcus Wise
returned the favor by picking off A.J. Milwee in the end zone on UNA’s
first snap. Unfortunately, James Kennebrew fumbled on the very next
play, with Michael Johnson recovering on the 22.
After a false start penalty, UNA decided the turnover parade was over
as they launched a five-play scoring drive that ended with the first-of-three
David McCants touchdown runs and a 7-0 lead.
The McCants TD began a scoring parade that never stopped. UNA
scored 10 in the first period, 13 in the second, 14 in the third quarter, and
28 in the final period. It all ended with a final total of 65, the most ever
surrendered by a West Georgia team in the program’s modern history.

hit Patrick Higgins on a 30-yard TD strike to even the score at 7-7.
After VSU reclaimed the lead, the Wolves were off another long drive.
This one took 14 plays and ended on the Valdosta State two-yard line. From
there, Jared Guberman booted a 19-yard field goal against his former
team, cutting UWG’s halftime deficit to but 14-10.
Unfortunately, it took the Blazers almost no time to flex their muscles
in the second half. Ronnye Nelson bolted 55 yards for a score and a 21-10
Valdosta State lead on the first possession of the period.
Next came something as predictable as the autumn leaves: a special
teams breakdown by West Georgia resulting in points for Valdosta State.
Eric Williams blocked a Wolves punt, which Maurice Leggett recovered
in the end zone for the score that effectively ended any doubt remaining as
to the eventual outcome. A Willie Copeland-to-Cedric Jones TD pass in
the final period provided the final margin.
With the defeat, West Georgia ended its season at 2-9.

VALDOSTA STATE

November 8, 2007 • Bazemore-Hyder Stadium • Valdosta, Georgia
– A gauntlet more challenging than anything Clint Eastwood ever faced
on a move screen came to a close on this cold night in Valdosta. Beyond
the brutal stretch of close with three straight road games against a trio of
national powers, with the toughest one last, the entire 2007 season had
evolved into a death march for the West Georgia Wolves.
UWG was a woefully undermanned football team against most opponents this season. Yet, this was a team with good character, and it showed
week after week. Despite the losses, and despite the inevitable, this team
battled hard and tried to give itself a chance to compete.
The season finale vs. archrival Valdosta State was no different. Though
the Blazers took an early, 7-0 lead, West Georgia hung in this thing for a lot
longer than many would expect against the eventual national champs.
West Georgia’s first challenge came late in the first and early in the
second quarter. A 15-play, 80-yard drive ended at the VSU 13 with a missed
field goal. However, Wes Myers both forced and recovered a Valdosta State
fumble to set UWG up on the opponent’s 45. Seven plays later Ryan Poole

RECORDS
UWG FOOTBALL… FROM A TO Z
This year’s edition of UWG Football A-to-Z is a two-fold celebration. As UWG football enters a new and exciting era, we’ll look
forward to the Wolves’ first season under the direction of new coach
Daryl Dickey.
Also, the 2008 season marks the 10th anniversary of the most
improbable of West Georgia’s three Gulf South Conference title
team. Though UWG’s championship squads weren’t preseason league
favorites in 1997 or 2000, they were ranked among the league’s top
squads and were nationally ranked at the seasons’ outset.
The 1998 season was a far different story. Under first year head
coach Glenn Spencer, West Georgia was picked sixth in the annual
GSC preseason poll. One GSC head coach thought so little of the
Braves that he picked them last.
UWG was armed with a chip on its shoulder, not to mention
good players and good coaching, and a huge dose of self-confidence.
“We’ll win one or two (tough) games just because these guys think
they’re supposed to,” said Spencer, prior to the season.
The 1998 West Georgia Braves won 10 games; some tough and
some were blowouts. They also won a ring, always a good way to
garner a measure of respect.
A – Anderson, Matt: His numbers weren’t overwhelming, not unusual
for a tight end, but this Division I (Troy State) transfer was a key
offensive contributor to the Braves’ title run. Though the Marietta
native was best known for his blocking prowess, Anderson caught 11
passes for 111 yards and a touchdown. That score, a 22-yard strike
vs. Delta State, earned Anderson the team’s top offensive honors for
the game vs. the Statesmen.
B – Blocked Punt: Special teams excellence was a given for West
Georgia football in the 90s, and the 1998 season was no exception.
The most memorable special teams play of that, or perhaps any other
UWG season, came on a sweltering October evening in Grisham
Stadium vs. powerhouse North Alabama. With the Braves up 3-0
last in the first period, UNA All-America Tony Faggioni had a punt
taken off his foot, literally, by West Georgia’s Anthony Johnson. The
backup wide receiver never broke stride on his 30-yard sprint to the
end zone. Johnson’s play was huge as West Georgia prevailed in a
24-17 decision.
C – Cooper, Vinson: Talk about your impact transfers! This Savannah
native was all that, and more, for the Braves’ in 1998. Cooper, who
signed out of high school with South Carolina, came to UWG from
the junior college ranks and made an impact from the first snap. He
earned All-America, All-South Region and All-GSC honors while
leading the team with eight sacks and 15 tackles for loss. He was
the Braves’ defensive player of the game vs. Mars Hill and North
Alabama. In the latter, Cooper was also GSC Defensive Player of the
Week as his dramatic stop on a fourth-and-goal in the final seconds
preserved a West Georgia win.
D – Dickerson, J.D.: There was more than one impact transfer on
UWG’s record setting 1998 defensive unit. Among three who
earned post-season honors was this Wrightsville native who came to
Carrollton from Georgia Southern. Dickerson was All-GSC Second
Team after leading the Braves with 110 tackles from his strong safety
position. He was also named GSC Defensive Player of the Week and
was presented the game ball for his performance in a key road win at
Central Arkansas.
E – Eagles: The moniker of an old nemesis that, for the third time in
four seasons, ended West Georgia’s season in the NCAA Playoffs.
The Carson-Newman Eagles stopped the Braves, 30-20, in Jefferson
City, Tenn. Unlike their previous visit to Burke-Tarr Stadium two
82
West Georgia Wolves
seasons earlier, West Georgia put up quite a battle in this one. Jeremy
Clements threw for 297 yards, including scoring strikes to Roscoe
Pounds and Anthony Johnson. However, the Eagles’ veer-option
attack was more than UWG could overcome in a loss that ended a
10-2 season.
F – Farias, Robert: Championship teams feature big-time players making big-time plays. Coaches call them difference makers. However,
there are always times when an unsung hero is required to step
forward in a vital situation. Enter this junior quarterback from Riverside, Calif. Farias had been the Braves’ opening night starter under
center, but lost his job when Clements led UWG to an overtime win
over Presbyterian. But, when a head blow knocked Clements out in
the fourth quarter vs. North Alabama, Farias entered to rescue the
day. He led an eight-play, 85-yard drive for the Braves’ game-winning score.
G – Grace, Oyemon: West Georgia’s list of all-time All-America players
includes this gifted linebacker from Warner Robins. Grace earned
the honor in 1999, but his performance during the ’98 title run was
more than exemplary. The former AJC player of the year had 68
tackles, including five for loss, as part of a trio of linebackers (Grace,
Casey Pennone and Matt Mosley) that ranks among the finest units
in school history. Also, his fourth quarter blocked punt provided the
points that sealed UWG’s 26-13 win over Valdosta State to clinch
the GSC title.
H – Hill, Twuan: Though his season was cut short by injury, this
talented wide receiver from New Smyrna Beach, Fla., was a top
weapon for the Braves’ attack in 1998. Hill’s biggest moment came
in UWG’s victory in Conway vs. Central Arkansas. He was on the
receiving end of a 72-yard scoring pass from Pounds for the tying
score as the Braves erased an early, 14-0 deficit. UWG won the game,
35-21.
I – Ivie, Steve: Few players contributed in more different ways than did
this Lithonia native during his UWG career. Ivie, the son of former
major league star Mike Ivie, came to West Georgia as a quarterback.
The combination of injuries and Ivie’s athleticism resulted in him
playing a variety of positions. His biggest moment, however, came
in the regular season finale vs. Valdosta State. His 41-yard, fourth
quarter TD scamper with a screen pass gave the Braves a 10-point
lead, and some breathing room, in a win over the Blazers.
J – Jam: A synonym for predicament, a jam is what the Braves found
themselves in during their late October trip to Delta State. West
Georgia entered the game against the powerful Statesmen shorthanded, after several key players were left home due to disciplinary
reasons. And, this was not the venue or the opponent to have bullets
missing from the gun. The Statesmen put three early scores on the
board, then coasted home to a 34-10 win, handing UWG their only
regular season loss.
K – Kincaid, David: You had to love a player who shows up for the first
day of preseason camp with a pet snake. A North Carolina native,
Kincaid (without his ophidian) was a top special teams star during
the Braves’ title run. The reserve tight end, who was an outstanding
blocker, was twice named UWG’s special teams player of the week:
vs. Central Arkansas and Carson-Newman in ’98.
L – Lithia Springs: The hometown of UWG’s first year head coach,
Glenn Spencer. After spending eight years on the staff, minus a
two-week sojourn to Gardner-Webb, Spencer was elevated to the
head coach job in March, following the departure of Charlie Fisher
to a post on the staff at North Carolina State. In three seasons as the
UWG FOOTBALL… FROM A TO Z
Braves’ coach, Spencer led his teams to two GSC titles, two NCAA
playoff appearances, and a record of 28-7.
M – Mosely, Matt: Nicknamed “Gator”, this native of Seminole County
was a vital cog in West Georgia’s record-setting defensive unit in
1998. He was fourth on the team in total tackles with 76, and
second in tackles for loss with 11. Also, Mosely was named UWG’s
defensive player of the game following the season opening, 24-21,
overtime thriller over Presbyterian.
N – North Carolina: UWG ventured to the Tar Heel State for only the
second time in the program’s history in their Week 2 visit to Mars
Hall. A year before the Lions had visited Carrollton, pushing the
Braves deep into the fourth quarter before West Georgia took total
control. This one was over very early as UWG ran, figuratively and
literally, to a 31-0 halftime lead and a 37-0 win. The Braves ran for
359 yards against the Lions, including two 100-yard performances.
Steve Duncan carried 16 times for 137 yards and three TDs, while
Kevin Carroll had 12 carries for 103 yards.
O – Offensive Line: An unsung backbone of almost any championship
team is the blocking corps. For this West Georgia team, however,
unsung might not have been the appropriate word. The 1998 offensive line ranked among the best of many great one tutored by
Gary Otten during his many years on the UWG staff. Tackle Chris
Williams was a two-time All-America, guard Jonathan Brinson and
center Matt Fendley both earned post season honors, and the unit’s
newcomer, sophomore Abed Taha, also developed into a two-time
All-America later in his career. Both Williams and Taha are members
of the University of West Georgia Athletic Hall of Fame.
P – Pounders: The offensive line wasn’t the only stellar unit on the
1998 West Georgia Braves. UWG’s defensive line did its share of
pounding all season. Tutored by former team captain and Braves star
Roberto Pinilla, this unit was outstanding all season. The ends; AllAmerica Vinson Cooper, Pat Brown, and Courtney Roebuck were
all big playmakers. Inside, the Braves had GSC Freshman of the Year
Channing Williams, Pierre Pluviose, and Chip Horton. Was it any
wonder the Braves’ linebackers had so much freedom to roam and
make plays?
Q – Queen: Homecoming activities always feature the crowning of a
queen. In 1998, the Braves did their part to make the proceedings
festive with a major beat down of Henderson State. UWG’s 54-3 win
over the Reddies was the most one-sided Homecoming win in school
history. It was a huge day for defense as West Georgia held their
visitors to but 123 yards offense and forced four turnovers. Jeremy
Clements threw four TD passes, while Dennison Robinson and J.D.
Dickerson each returned an interception for a score.
R – Robinson, Dennison: Still going strong as an Arena Football
League star, this native of Baton Rouge, La., was a rock in the Braves’
secondary in 1998. Robinson earned All-GSC Second Team honors,
leading the league with seven interceptions. He also has a 93-yard
punt return for a score in the win over Arkansas-Monticello, the
longest of the season in the GSC. Robinson, now with AFL’s Chicago Rush, was this season named the Arena Football League ADT
Defensive Player of the Year.
S – Sanders, Grant: A common thread through this section of looking
back at the 1998 GSC title team has been special teams excellence.
At the center of much of that success, no pun intended, was this native of Dewey Rose. His precision helped placement specialist Jeremy
Coates to a record setting career. Also, he had eight tackles following
punt snaps to Justin Allen, helping UWG surrender only 111 punt
return yards for the entire season.
T – Turner, Brian: West Georgia football big run in the 1990s featured
many stars. However, the Braves’ success would never have happened
without contributions from players like Turner. At one time a defensive end, Turner worked on getting bigger and stronger. By his senior
season the Lawrenceville native was a mainstay at offensive guard for
UWG’s title team.
U – Umbrella: This weather protection device was only a small part of
the protective gear needed when the Braves made their first ever visit
to Buerkle Field to face Arkansas Tech. A cold rain, coupled with a
wind chill factor in the 20s, made for conditions that were charitably
described as miserable. Still, one week away from a showdown with
Valdosta State, West Georgia remained focused on the task at hand
to score a hard-fought, 14-7 win over the Wonder Boys. Steve Duncan rolled for 179 yards rushing and one touchdown, plus he caught
a two-point conversion pass. Two field goals from Jeremy Coates
provided UWG’s other points in what is still the program’s only win
ever in Russellville.
V – Vapid: Prior to the 2008 season many thought this adjective would
be ideal to describe the state of West Georgia football: “lacking or
having lost life or sharpness.” Picked sixth in the GSC preseason
poll, West Georgia was voted last by one league head coach. Those
projections, as it turned, were… vapid.
W – Williams, Chris – A leader and a performer, this native of
Swainsboro still ranks among the most decorated and celebrated
players ever to wear the blue-and-red. Williams, a tri-captain of
the 98 title team, was a two-time All-America and twice earned
berths on the All-Region and All-Gulf south Conference Teams.
Also, he was a first ballot selection to the UWG Athletic Hall of
Fame.
X – X-Receiver: This was the terminology given in the Braves’ terminology of the day to, mostly, the split end position. It was a spot
manned quite nicely by Roscoe Pounds. A Villa Rica native, Pounds
came to UWG in 1997 as a quarterback from Jones County (Miss.)
Community College. He led the 98 Braves with 62 receptions for
915 yards and 10 touchdowns. Pounds remains UWG’s career pass
reception record holder with 154, including catches in a school
record 32 straight games.
Y – Youth: Despite the newness of many players, the 1998 West Georgia
Braves were not a young team. Redshirt freshman defensive tackle
Channing Williams made the most impact of any of the newcomers
as he won GSC Freshman of the Year honors. Also playing a prominent role as a redshirt freshman was defensive back Nate Coggins.
Though not a starter for the season opener vs. Presbyterian, Coggins
was on the field midway in the first period and he never left. The
Atlanta native and two-time All-America started a school record 45
straight games and was a 2007 inductee of the UWG Athletic Hall
of Fame.
Z – Zip Job: West Georgia’s record-setting defense pitched one shutout
in 1998, a Week Two shellacking of Mars Hill. What was UWG’s
most impressive defensive performance of the season came, perhaps,
in an opening night in an overtime epic vs. Presbyterian. The Braves
trailed this one 21-0 just 10 minutes into the season. But, from that
moment forward, West Georgia’s defense put the clamps on the Blue
Hose and their high-flying attack. They shutout PC over the game’s
final 40 minutes, and during the first period of overtime, to secure a
dramatic opening night win. It was a win that proved to be a springboard to a magical football season.

INDIVIDUAL CAREER
UWG
WEST GEORGIA
T
The University of West Georgia is a leading residential, doctoral-comprehensive university that offers a broad undergraduate and graduate curriculum based on a liberal arts foundation. Founded in 1906, the institution grew from a
district agricultural and mechanical school to a two-year institution and was granted four-year college status in 1957.
The school was recognized with university status in 1996. The motto of our university is Educational Excellence in a
Personal Environment.
The university currently offers 109 programs of study,
including 56 at the Bachelor’s degree level, 40 at the Master’s
and Specialist degree levels, two at the Doctoral level, and 11
certificates. In the Summer of 2009, the university
will enroll its first students in a new Doctoral program in professional counseling and supervision.
Enrollment at UWG was 10,677 in the 2007
Fall semester. As a state university in the University
System of Georgia, it enrolls students from most counties in Georgia as well as from about 40 other states and 80
countries.
The University of West Georgia is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges
and Schools.
The five academic entities which comprise the university are the College of Arts and Sciences, the largest of West
Georgia’s undergraduate colleges; the College of Education,
housing one of the largest teacher-education programs in the
nation; the Richards College of Business, one of only approximately four percent of the schools worldwide with separate
AACSB-International accreditation for its business and
accounting programs; the Honors College, the only college of
its kind in the state; and the Graduate School, which enrolls
one of the highest percentages of graduate students of any
institution in the University System of Georgia.
The University of West Georgia is a national leader in
debate, undergraduate research, and school improvement. The
nursing program and the College of Education are helping
to meet the state’s growing demand for professionals in these
fields.
Improved and expanded facilities, including the newly
opened Campus Center, are a vital part of the learning environment and encourage students to be involved in and out of
the classroom. Construction is under way on a new Health
and Wellness Center, which will house the Department of
Physical Education and Recreation, as well as a major renovation and addition to the Callaway Building, which houses the
geosciences program.

West Georgia Wolves
West Georgia students can be involved in the life of the
campus in many ways. The University of West Georgia fields
five men’s and six women’s intercollegiate athletics teams and
offers a wide range of clubs, interest groups, organizations,
and activities. Service learning is an important component of
the West Georgia experience.
