But the Great Danes, who have won four Northeast Conference championships since 2002, were not satisfied after tying for fourth place in the conference standings. “If you can’t run the ball and can’t stop the run, you will not be playing in December,” offers head coach Bob Ford, the active NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) leader with 247 career victories. “We have an opportunity to make a run at the title.” “This will be a better football team,” explains Ford, whose team ended the 2010 schedule by winning its final three games. “It’s a more experienced group, but I am concerned that we had ten players miss the spring due to injury.” For the second year in a row, the NEC champion receives an automatic berth in the NCAA FCS playoffs. OFFENSE: The Great Danes return their starting quarterback, top two running backs and leading receiver. Buddy Leathley took over the starting quarterback duties at midseason as a redshirt freshman. Leathley, who has the ability to run and throw, completed 67 of 125 pass attempts for 748 yards and four touchdowns and was third on the team in rushing with 178 yards and two scores. Dan Di Della, a 6’5" senior, took a lot of snaps during the spring with Leathley recovering from off-season surgery. He passed for 720 yards and three TDs last season. The tailback position is loaded with Dillon Romain and Andrew Smith. Romain was the NEC’s top offensive rookie after rushing for 547 yards and six touchdowns and averaging 86.7 allpurpose yards per game. Smith, a junior who has more than 1,800 allpurpose yards in his two-year career and has played multiple positions, had a team-high 724 yards and seven touchdowns on the ground. “Drew has done some great things and I am glad he is on our side,” Ford states. “Dillon is a throwback runner. He is tough and runs to his nose.” Ben Miseikis, who rushed for 163 yards and two TDs, has been productive in every situation as a tailback. Tramaine Wilson, who missed most of last season, has breakaway speed. Justin Petersen, the good-hands fullback, and Ben Carl, who can run and catch, add more dimension to the offensive attack. Leading receiver Ryan Kirchner registered the fifth-best single-season total in school history with 50 receptions for 504 yards and one touchdown. He also averaged 10.4 yards per punt return. Kevin Chillis moved into the wide receiver rotation during the final part of his redshirt freshman season. “Each player has the passion and talent, plus can catch the ball,” Ford says. “They have been productive and should have great seasons.” Tight end Paul Booker (10 receptions) can stretch the field with decent size and strength. Receivers Jameel Gay, who had 18 catches last year, was baptized as a true freshman, while John Lullen has been a solid collegian over the previous three seasons. For UAlbany to see a significant upgrade, a reshuffled offensive line must improve. Kyle O’Keefe is the top returning lineman. A 6-foot-3, 290pound left guard, the senior was slowed by injuries one year ago, but has physical toughness coupled with leadership ability. Keith Peifer (6-5, 280) has moved from tackle to right guard is in his third year as a starter where he will not have to operate in as much space. Chaz Mitchell (6-3, 270) and Jordan Migliore (6-6, 295) have the upper hand at both tackle positions as preseason begins. Mitchell is athletic and moves well. Anthony Bazzoffi (63, 335) has shown progress at left guard, while sophomore tackle Kadeem Williams (6-7, 300) is expected to blossom. Redshirt freshman Brian Parker has made the switch from tight end. DEFENSE: The Great Danes, who have traditionally been tough to run against, return seven starters on defense. “We have experience and enough depth and talent,” Ford says. Eddie Delaney (6-6, 250) and Marc Wargo (6-2, 245) are proven talents as defensive ends. Delaney, who plays with one hand, earned second-team all-conference honors for the second time as a junior. He made 41 tackles, including 4.5 for losses. Wargo had 18 tackles and led the team in sacks (3.5). Zach Gallo (6-0, 265) and Ocieka Bakou (6-0, 270) are penciled in as the starting tackles. Gallo, who has been a solid performer, totaled 32 tackles. An agile junior, Bakou (24 tackles) has made the steady incline. Dean Mercuris is capable in a variety of 2010 Northeast Conference Offensive Rookie of the Year Dillon Romain (20). positions. Andrew Smith (6-2, 255) is also versatile and has every physical tool. Dave Plungas and Jon Morgan are back as the starting inside linebackers. Plungas led the team in tackles with 71 as a sophomore. Morgan, who made the successful transition from the outside and could become an allconference type, was second with 54 tackles and scored on a fumble return for the second time during his career. Raymond Dorcely, a 6-foot senior, should start at outside linebacker. Dorcely, who is usually in the right place at the right time, made 26 tackles. Alex Helmer, who improved in the spring, and redshirt freshman Kyle Jordan add depth at the position. The defensive secondary is a veteran unit. “We may be strongest at safety,” Ford states. “There is good experience with athleticism on the front level.” Jake Ciccarello, a physical safety, and Justin Hassan, a secondyear starter at free safety, each had 51 tackles and two interceptions. Justininan Mason (21 tackles) will also see time at both safety positions. Leon Saddler, who originally attended C.W. Post and had 41 tackles and four pass break-ups last season, and Duane Harper figure to be the cornerbacks. Kareem Cooper and Randall Extanus (20 tackles, 5 PBUs) are in more prominent roles. KICKING GAME: Both specialists return. Herb Glass, who handles kickoffs and placements, is among the school’s all-time scorers with 164 points. He is second in career field goals (28) and has made 86 pointafter attempts. Paul Layton averaged 40.1 yards per punt in his first collegiate season and drilled 12 kicks of 50-plus yards. 2011 UAlbany Football Albany Combined Team Statistics (as of Oct 10, 2011) All games Date Sep 03, 2011 Sep 17, 2011 Sep 24, 2011 * Oct 01, 2011 * Oct 08, 2011 Opponent at Colgate MAINE at Columbia at SAINT FRANCIS DUQUESNE Rushing gp-gs Passing gp-gs Receiving gp-gs Smith, Drew Osbourne, Omar Di Lella, Dan Romain, Dillon Miseikis, Ben Cushing, Matt Leathley, Buddy Gay, Jameel Chillis, Kevin Hutcherson, Nick TEAM Total Opponents Di Lella, Dan Leathley, Buddy Smith, Drew Fiacchi, Will Total Opponents Kirchner, Ryan King, Cole Chillis, Kevin Smith, Drew Hutcherson, Nick Gay, Jameel Booker, Paul Romain, Dillon Osbourne, Omar Miseikis, Ben Wilson, Tramaine Carl, Ben Lullen, John Petersen, Justin Total Opponents Field Goals fg 6-9 Scoring td Score by Quarters Albany Opponents gain loss 5 3 3 3 3 1 1 1 1 1 22 15 421 1 177 6 178 10 88 6 32 1 16 0 17 2 15 0 23 12 6 0 0 3 973 41 939 106 effic comp-att-int 135.54 117.51 497.20 0.00 137.23 108.34 no. 5-5 5-4 5-0 5-5 5-0 5-1 5-5 3-0 5-0 3-0 5-0 5-0 5-0 5-5 5 5 Glass, Herb Glass, Herb Smith, Drew Osbourne, Omar King, Cole Kirchner, Ryan Romain, Dillon Chillis, Kevin Petersen, Justin Miseikis, Ben Leathley, Buddy Booker, Paul Layton, Paul Di Lella, Dan Total Opponents att 5-5 73 5-0 38 5-5 33 3-0 28 3-0 9 2-0 4 5-0 5 5-1 1 5-0 8 5-0 1 3-0 2 5 202 5 210 5-5 5-0 5-5 1-0 5 5 81-135-4 7-18-1 2-2-0 0-1-0 90-156-5 88-159-6 yds avg 20 226 16 255 14 248 10 96 7 45 5 48 5 44 4 87 2 50 2 10 2 5 1 37 1 7 1 6 90 1164 88 871 pct. 01-19 6-9 6-9 5-7 1st 38 28 11.3 15.9 17.7 9.6 6.4 9.6 8.8 21.8 25.0 5.0 2.5 37.0 7.0 6.0 12.9 9.9 20-29 66.7 0-0 fg Score 34-37 15-31 44-21 41-20 38-10 L L W W W 1-1 kick 20-20 20-20 14-14 2nd 62 35 3rd 23 26 net avg 420 171 168 82 31 16 15 15 11 6 -3 932 833 td lg avg/g 5.8 5 4.5 2 5.1 0 2.9 2 3.4 1 4.0 0 3.0 1 15.0 0 1.4 0 6.0 0 -1.5 0 4.6 11 4.0 7 pct 41 84.0 23 34.2 18 33.6 16 27.3 19 10.3 9 8.0 9 3.0 15 3.0 9 2.2 6 1.2 0 -1.0 41 186.4 33 166.6 yds td lg avg/g 60.0 995 8 38.9 153 1 100.0 16 2 0.0 0 0 57.7 1164 11 55.3 871 7 td 3 3 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 11 7 30-39 2-3 50 199.0 75 30.6 10 3.2 0 0.0 75 232.8 49 174.2 lg avg/g 25 45.2 49 51.0 50 49.6 20 19.2 11 9.0 15 9.6 18 8.8 75 29.0 37 10.0 13 3.3 3 1.0 37 7.4 7 1.4 6 1.2 75 232.8 49 174.2 40-49 3-4 - - - 1 - - - - - - - - - 0-1 - 1-1 1 1-2 - - 4th OT 3 6 Total 172 119 no. 2 1 1 1 1 Punting lg blk 48 pts - 38 - 30 - 20 - 18 - 18 - 18 6 6 6 6 6 0 0 - 172 - 119 0 no.
