Dining opportunities for Eagle basketball players range from buffets to some of the best-liked and well-known national and regional establishments.

Grote-Thompson Hall is one of the best on-campus housing arrangements in the country. I have coached at LSU, Idaho

and Middle Tennessee, and this is by far the best housing situation that I have had for our players. With the buffets available in

the Adron Doran University Center and Alumni Tower and the number of

other dining opportunities at MSU, our players have excellent quality, quantity

and variety in their food choices.

Eagle basketball players utilize the strength and conditioning facilities at Jayne Stadium,

which include the track, the Phil Simms Weight Training Facility, and the Eagle Weight Room just off the Johnson Arena playing floor.

Strength Coach Kevin Deweese is a young and energetic coach who pushes our players hard every day. We also have excellent facilities to

work out in. The Phil Simms Weight Training Facility is one of the nicest that I have seen. It is spacious and has all of the finest equip-

ment. We also have the Eagle Weight Room that is located inside the Academic-Athletic

Center. Coach Deweese is able to utilize both of these facilities to help with our strength and conditioning program and push our players to

reach their full potential.

Donnie Tyndall, the 2007-08 Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year, is in his fifth

season as men’s head basketball coach at More-head State University.

Under Tyndall’s guidance, the Eagles have improved each sea-son, with back-to-back postseason appearances and Morehead State’s first OVC Tournament title and NCAA bid since 1984. In return-ing the Eagles to prominence, Tyndall led MSU over Alabama State in the NCAA Tournament

Opening Round, the first NCAA Tournament win for an OVC team since 1989.

Tyndall’s 2009-10 team posted the second most wins in school his-tory with 24, finishing 24-11 overall. MSU also broke the school’s record for OVC win total with 15, finish-

ing 15-3 in league play. The Eagles advanced

to the OVC title game for the second straight year

and finished the season by playing in the College Basketball Invitational, during which MSU defeated Colorado State. Tyndall is the first coach in MSU history to have back-to-back 20-win seasons and just the second coach in school history to win two postseason games.

The 2008-09 Eagles finished with a 20-16 overall record, the first time since 2002-03 that a Morehead State team has reached 20 wins. Tyndall is only the third coach in school history to have a 20-win season, and he is the only coach to accomplish the feat in fewer than four years.

Tyndall’s first Morehead State team more than tripled the win total from the previous year. The 2006-07 Eagles were picked 11th in the Ohio Valley Conference but finished seventh and advanced to the conference tournament for the first time in three seasons.

The 2007-08 team continued the steady progress by picking up 15 wins and finishing third in the conference standings even though it was picked 10th in the preseason league rankings. The season was highlighted by a 10-0

start in Johnson Arena. That start matched the best start at home in school history.

Tyndall has led an impressive turnaround in the last four years, so good that it ranks as the top turnaround in Division I men’s basketball. The Eagles’ RPI (Ratings Percentage Index) jumped a whopping 237 spots, from 321, which was where MSU was rated the year before Tyndall’s arrival, to 84th last season.

Entering the 2010-11 season, Tyndall is 47-27 in Ohio Valley Conference games since being named MSU head coach and he also has been tough to beat at Johnson Arena. Tyndall is 46-14 in “Tyndalltown” as head coach at Morehead State.

Well respected both in the Morehead com-munity and within the college coaching ranks, Tyndall was named as one of the Top 10 “Under the Radar” coaches by Athlon Sports this year. He also served as the co-chair for the MSU Capital Campaign in 2009 and was a Top 20 finalist in the voting for Lexington Herald-Leader’s Ken-tucky Sportsman of the Year in 2009.

An MSU alumnus who was a basketball letter-winner, he is the 12th head coach in the history of the Eagle program. He returned to his alma mater from the position of associate head coach at Middle Tennessee State University where he had served for four years.

A NCAA Division I assistant coach for nearly 10 years, the 40-year old Tyndall spent one season

as associate head coach at the University of Idaho. Prior to that, he was an assistant coach for four seasons at Louisiana State University. In 1996-97, Tyndall served as head coach at St. Catharine College in Springfield, Ky., for a season. After graduation from MSU, he spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Iowa Central Community College in Fort Dodge, Iowa.

“In conducting a national search and speak-ing with literally hundreds of people, it became apparent that someone with a commitment to recruiting high level student-athletes, a passion for the game and certainly a fondness for More-head State would emerge as our new head men’s basketball coach,” said MSU Athletic Director Brian Hutchinson. “Donnie Tyndall has all the requisite experience, having been a Division I assistant for nearly 10 years. He is proving himself to be absolutely the right person to lead this pro-gram into prominence regionally and nationally.”

At MTSU, Tyndall teamed with head coach Kermit Davis to lead the Blue Raiders to four consecutive winning seasons, averaging 17 wins a campaign. As recruiting coordinator, he directed MTSU recruiting efforts that resulted in two classes being ranked in the Top 25 nationally. “Hoop Scoop” ranked the 2003 class 23rd, and

the 2004 class was ranked 11th nation-ally. Each class was selected as the number one class in the Sun Belt Con-ference by that basketball publication.

While many of his responsibilities centered around recruiting, Tyndall also played instrumental roles in prac-tice and game preparation, coordinat-ing scouting reports and practice orga-nization and in academic monitoring.

While he was at Idaho, the Van-dals’ 2002 recruiting class was ranked as high as 15th nationally. Tyndall also served as scouting coordinator. As the individual in charge of academic progress, he helped the team earn a cumulative grade point average of 2.6 (on a 4.0 scale), the best at the school in more than a decade.

During his tenure on John Brady’s staff at LSU, Tyndall helped recruit three classes that were ranked among the Top 25 nationally. In 2000, LSU won the SEC and advanced to the Sweet 16. Three of the recruited stu-dent-athletes went on to play in the NBA, five earned All-Southeast Con-ference honors, and five were named Academic All-SEC. As the Tigers’ aca-

demic coordinator, he helped improve the basket-ball team’s grade point average from 1.7 in 1996 to 2.65 in 2001.

During his one season as head coach at St. Catharine, he led the team to a school-record 30-5 mark and to the National Junior College Athletic Association National Tournament for the first time in school history. Tyndall was named the Kentucky-Tennessee Junior College Coach of the Year and was also named the top coach in Region VII. Illustrating his emphasis on academic achievement, the team’s grade point average improved from 1.81 to 2.64, and all six of the sophomores on the squad earned associate degrees.

As an assistant coach at Iowa Central, he had on-floor coaching and recruiting duties and organized and supervised the team’s strength and conditioning program.

A native of Grand Rapids, Mich., Tyndall played at Northview High School, then one sea-son at Iowa Central (1989-90). He was a member of Eagle teams for three seasons (1990-93). Tyn-dall played with Athletes in Action after complet-ing his career at MSU. He earned a bachelor’s degree from MSU (1993) and a master’s degree from LSU.

Tyndall has two daughters, Taylor Elise and Grace Elizabeth.

“Donnie Tyndall is an outstanding basketball coach and one of the best assistants I have ever had work with me. When I hired Donnie at LSU, there was no doubt in my mind he would eventually become a head coach. He is a wonderful person to be around, and an excellent coach who cares about the welfare and development of his players.”

John Brady, Head Coach, Arkansas State

“I know Donnie is so excited to be at Morehead State, his alma mater. He is building a solid foundation and I sense his excitement and hard work will continue to turn the program around.”

Bill Self, Head Coach, Kansas University

“As I observed Donnie as an assistant at LSU, I knew he was a very special coach. His work ethic was unmatched and his love of the game was evident. The confidence he exhibited and the respect he had for his players in practice was very impressive to me. Morehead State has a great young man running its program.”

Joe Dean, Retired Athletic Director, LSU

During his time as an assistant coach on the Division I level, prior to returning to Morehead State, Donnie Tyndall had the opportunity

to work with several players that went on to play in the NBA. Among them were former LSU standouts Ronald Dupree (left),

Jabari Smith (middle) and Stromile Swift (right).

A long-time Division I assistant coach, Wade O’Connor joined Morehead State men’s

basketball in the summer of 2010 as an associate head coach.

O’Connor assists with all aspects of the pro-gram, including recruiting, scouting and game planning. He joins the MSU program after a two-year stint as an assistant coach at Western Carolina.

While at Western Carolina, O’Connor helped lead the program to 38 wins over two seasons, including a school-record 22 wins this past season. The Catamounts beat Elon in the first round of the Southern Conference Tournament in 2009 and participated in the Collegiate Insider Post Season Tournament against Marshall. The high-light of that season was a non-conference win at Louisville. The Catamounts were the last non-Big East team to defeat Louisville in Freedom Hall.

Prior to Western Carolina, O’Connor was head coach at St. Catharine College in Kentucky, where he led the Patriots to a 23-8 record in his first season. In just four years at St. Catharine,

O’Connor led the Patriots to 94 wins. In 2005-06 the Patriots finished 25-6 overall and captured a share of the Tennessee Junior and Community College Athletic Association (TJCCAA) regular season championship, the first in school history. The Patriots were ranked as high as 16th in the country by the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA).

O’Connor spent 10 years among the NCAA D-I coaching ranks. From 1994-96 he was on staff at Marshall University, under current Florida head coach Billy Donovan. The Thundering Herd won the Northern Division of the Southern Confer-ence in 1994-95.

After Marshall, O’Conner moved onto Oliver Purnell’s staff at Dayton, from 1996-2000. In the 1997-98 season, Dayton was 21-12 and

earned a bid to the National Invitational Tour-nament (NIT). The Flyers made the NCAA Tournament in the 1999-2000 season after winning the Atlantic-10 Western Division with 22 wins.

O’Connor was the recruiting coordinator at Tulane from 2000-04. While at Tulane, he helped develop future NBA player, Linton Johnson, of the Phoenix Suns. The 2002-03 recruiting class was ranked 29th in the country of 327 Division 1 schools. In all, O’Connor has also coached and developed 50 former players who have played professionally.

O’Connor is a 1994 graduate of Bridgewater State College in Bridgewater, Mass., where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education.

Joseph Price

Joseph Price is in his first season on the men’s basketball coaching staff at Morehead State.

Price will be responsible for assisting in all aspects of Eagle basketball, including recruiting, scouting and game preparation and player devel-opment. He joins the MSU staff after stints on the Ball State and IUPUI coaching staffs and a successful playing career.

He recently concluded his third season with head coach Billy Taylor at Ball State, where he helped the Cardinals claim the Mid-American Conference West Division in 2008-09 and played a pivotal role in recruiting. That year’s recruiting class was ranked in the top 80 by hoopmasters.com.

Price oversaw guard development at Ball State, playing a key role last year in the maturation of sophomore guard Randy Davis into one of the MAC’s premiere guards. Under Price, Davis raised his scoring average to 10.3 points per game on the year, an improvement from 2.7 points per game as a freshman. His average jumped to 13.2 points per game against conference opponents, making him BSU’s leading scorer in league

games. Freshman guard Jauwan Scaife earned MAC All-Freshman honors, finishing the season third on the team in scoring at 10.2 points per game, ranking third best among MAC rookies. Price also was instrumental in the development of guard Brandon Lampley who earned Honorable Mention All-MAC honors during 2008-09, his senior year. Lampley finished second on the team in scoring at 10.0 points per game and led the MAC in three-point shooting during conference play at 53.5 percent shooting.

He spent five seasons as an assistant coach at IUPUI prior to Ball State. At IUPUI, Price’s primary role included player development, oppo-nent scouting and recruiting, while also working with the post players along with individual defen-sive and shooting instruction. In 2005-06, IUPUI was among the nation’s best free throw shooting teams, and in 2004-05, the Jaguars’ Brandon Cole and Akeem Clark teamed to create one of the most formidable three-point shooting duos in the country.

In addition to his prowess at instructing guards and teaching shooting, he has played a role in the development of post skills as well. His work with 2003 Mid-Continent Conference Player of the Year Odell Bradley allowed Bradley to develop into an inside-outside threat as a senior. Price’s post work came to fruition when the Jaguars’ out-rebounded opponents by better than three boards per contest in 2004-05.

Price was named to the Indiana Basketball Hall

of Fame’s 2007 Men’s Silver Anniversary Team which recognizes outstanding high school gradu-ates from 25 years earlier. Price is well respected among his basketball peers for his ability to shoot and teach up-and-coming players the fundamen-tals of shooting.

Locally active in his communities, Price has made numerous speaking appearances all over the state of Indiana including to youth groups prior to Indiana Fever games at Conseco Fieldhouse. He was a motivational speaker for the Executive Service Corps of Indiana through the United Way, speaking to students about athletics and academics.

Price played collegiately at Notre Dame for coach Digger Phelps (current ESPN Analyst). He also played for a core of talented assistant coaches in Pete Gillen (Virginia), Jim Baron (Rhode Island) and Gary Brokaw (NBA’s Charlotte Bob-cats). Following his senior season, he was chosen in the 1986 NBA Draft by the Washington Bul-lets in the seventh round.

The Irish went 84-37 with Price on the roster, including a run to the postseason National Invi-tational Tournament (NIT) finals his sophomore year. During his senior season, when he averaged a career-best 6.2 points per game as the first off the bench, the Irish ranked as high as tenth in The Associated Press poll. When he finished he ranked fifth all-time at Notre Dame in career games played (115). He now stands 16th in that category in the Irish record books.

The 6-foot-5 Price played professionally over-seas in France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Bel-gium and Spain. He also instructed at the Swiss All-Star Basketball Camps every summer during his playing career. With St. Prex in 1987-88, Price helped the basketball club to the Switzerland Second Division League-B Championship. He also played with Dallas Mavericks’ star forward Dirk Nowitzki in Germany for DJK S. Oliver Wurzburg in 1998-99.

Prior to college, he excelled on the hardwood at Marion High School in Marion, Ind. He was a three-time All-North Central Conference selec-tion for Indiana Hall of Fame coach Bill Green. He also served as team captain and was a member of the Indiana All-Star Team and a Mr. Basketball candidate as a senior.

He was the junior varsity coach at Indianapolis Manual High School in 2001-02.

Price received his bachelor’s degree in sociology from Notre Dame in 1986. He has one daughter, Naomi.

Assistant Coach

Notre Dame, 1986First Season

Joseph brings a track record of being an out-standing recruiter. He is very charismatic and personable, and having played at the highest level [Notre Dame], and 13 years profession-ally in Europe allows him to be a great mentor to our players.


19 Adam Howard joined Donnie Tyndall’s staff

in the summer of 2009 as a graduate man-ager. He was promoted to assistant coach in the summer of 2010.

Howard’s duties include assisting with all aspects of the program, from in-game coaching and practice preperation to recruiting and travel coordination.

Howard was a four-year letterman at Western Kentucky for current South Carolina head coach Darrin Horn. While at WKU, Howard was part of three post-season appearances: the 2004-05 NIT Second Round (24-9), the 2005-06 NIT First Round, where the Hilltoppers lost to even-tual champions South Carolina (23-8), and the 2007-08 NCAA Tournament (12 seed) Sweet 16. That Sweet 16 team beat Drake in the first round and San Diego in the second round before falling to Final Four participant UCLA in the Sweet 16.

He was a part of 96 wins in four seasons and was awarded the Danny Rumph Most Outstanding Teammate Award for three seasons (2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08) after the passing

of his teammate and friend Danny Rumph (who passed from cardiomyopathy, which caused heart failure during a pick up game in his home-town of Philly) at the conclusion of Howard’s freshman season.

Following college, Howard worked as a host to the University of New Mexico in the Cancun Challenge 2008-09, where he first met coach Tyndall. In the summer of 2009, prior to join-

ing the MSU staff, he worked as a counsler at the Freshman All-American Camp for the top 150 Freshman to be in the country. Howard also assisted on the Derek Smith All-Stars 16U AAU team in the summer of 2009.

A graduate of Paul G. Blazer High School in nearby Ashland, Ky., Howard earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Mass Communication from Western Kentucky.


Adam HowardAssistant Coach

Western Kentucky, 2008Second Season

Adam reminds me very much of myself at the same age. He has a great passion for the game, is a relentless recruiter, and has no ego when he comes to work. I feel his ability to relate to our players will be very advantageous to our program.

Maze Stallworth

Basketball Support Staff

Donnie Tyndall’s first recruit at Morehead State, former Eagle standout Maze Stall-

worth, has joined Tyndall’s staff as a graduate manager for the 2010-11 season. Stallworth, who finished his undergraduate degree in Uni-versity Studies, was a key cog in Tyndall’s back-to-back 20-win seasons.

Stallworth became the Eagles’ all-time leading 3-point shooter during his senior season. During his junior season, he set the records for triples made (87) and attempted (229) in a single season. He added to that total as a senior, finishing his career as the Eagles’ all-time leader with 283 3-pointers made and 736 attempted. Both records broke former MSU great Ricky Minard’s career marks. He was just one 3-pointer shy of the single game record as well.

Stallworth ranks 15th all-time in scoring at MSU, and was the 28th player in Morehead State history to reach 1,000 career points,

As a senior, he averaged 17.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.0 steals and 2.0 assists and was named Second-Team All-State by both the Lexington Herald-Leader and the Louisville Courier-Journal. He was the all-time leading scorer in John Hardin history with 1,491 points.

Graduate Manager

Morehead State University, 2010First Season

Maze was my first recruit when I came to MSU. There is not a tougher, better, more loyal person to myself and to Morehead State than Maze Stallworth. I truly believe he will be an outstanding coach and have a great career.

2010-11Season Outlook

Having a roster full of new-comers and high expecta-

tions is a rare thing in college basketball, but that’s exactly what Morehead State coach Donnie Tyndall faces as he enters year five at his alma mater.

The Eagles, who were picked second in the Ohio Valley Confer-ence preseason poll, return five players off of last year’s team and have nine new faces. But among those returnees is a core of play-ers who have been instrumental in returning MSU to prominence within the OVC and making the Eagle program one of the most recognizable mid-majors over the past three years.

Coming off of a record-break-ing season, Tyndall whose teams have improved each season he’s been at MSU, faces the daunting task of matching or bettering last year’s record number of confer-ence wins (15) and second best overall wins (24). The top spot on Tyndall’s to do list, however, has more to do with postseason play. He’d like to return the Eagles to the NCAA Tournament with the intent of winning a game in the big dance.

Tyndall’s high expectations come from a quick glance at the 2010-11 MSU roster. Dominating center Kenneth Faried returns for his senior season as Tyndall’s big-time rebounder and energetic fan favorite. The reigning OVC Player of the Year and two-time OVC Defensive Player of the Year, Faried flirted with the NBA in the spring before returning to Morehead State with the intention of bringing another OVC title to MSU.

Faried’s return makes the paint a very difficult place for MSU’s opponents on both ends of the floor, but after being short a true power forward last season, Tyndall has made sure Faried won’t be alone in the post. Miami (Ohio) transfer Drew Kelly is a physical, big-bodied talent that is slated to be the starter in the four position once he completes his transfer year in residency as pre-scribed by the NCAA. Kelly, a 6-7, 225-pound sophomore can play the four or five position and will both compliment and substitute for Faried.

“Drew is a physically tough player who’s a good rebounder and a good passer and he will allow us to do some things with Kenneth that we haven’t done in the past,” Tyndall said.

Junior college transfer Romaric Lasme will also see significant time in the four position. Not as physical as Kelly, Lasme is a 6-7, 215-pound junior out of Laramie County Community Col-lege who is long, athletic and has strong shot-blocking tendencies. He is still improving his skill set and adjusting to Tyndall’s system, but will be able to contribute immediately.

Tyndall’s other options in the post include a trio of freshmen. Arthur McMillan, a 6-6, 235-pound freshman has the talent and size to play immediately, but must adjust mentally and physi-cally to the rigors of the college game. Dionte Ferguson is another player Tyndall expects will devel-op into a nice player and has good potential, but is a raw talent. A freshman, Ferguson is 6-7, 215 pounds and can play in either post position. Shannon Williams is the third post player in the 2010 recruiting class. A 6-8, 230-pound freshman, Williams will add much-needed depth to the Eagles front line.

Outside of Faried, the core of returnees are all guards, which will prompt Tyndall to run a three-guard system in order to get his most experienced, best players on the floor for the majority of the minutes. All four returning guards have starting experience and two of the four are versatile enough to play any of the three guard positions.

Leading that class is senior Demonte Harper. A preseason All-Conference selection, Harper is a 6-4, 185-pound, talented guard who will be Tyndall’s go-to perim-eter player. Harper will be the Eagles’ starting point guard, but expect to see him play some shoot-ing guard and some three-guard. He is the most versatile offensive

player MSU has and is a legitimate scoring threat from off the dribble or as a bull’s-eye perimeter shooter. As a four-year player in Tyndall’s system and a four-year teammate of Faried’s, Harper has a sixth sense about the Eagle offensive game and personnel, so he can be creative in his ball distri-bution to create opportunities for other players.

“Demonte is battle-tested and he’s really embraced the [point guard] position more than in the past,” Tyndall said.

Fellow senior Sam Goodman will start at the three-guard slot. A 6-2, 185-pound guard, Good-man’s athleticism allows him to leap and defend both quick guards and larger forwards. MSU’s best perimeter defender, Goodman has improved

for the Eagles this season.

significantly over last season. His jumping ability makes him an exciting offensive player, especially in his ability to chase down offensive rebounds and create second chances.

“Sam has really improved, he’s a great offen-sive rebounder and our best perimeter defender,” Tyndall said.

Juniors Terrance Hill and Ty Proffitt will share time at the two guard position, but look for the 6-4, 200-pound Proffitt to serve as a utility guard, much like Harper. A natural shooter, Prof-fitt is a heady player who can run the point as a true floor general or play the three guard.

“Ty can play some point, but we want him to play off the ball too. We also need his leadership ability on the court,” Tyndall said.

Hill is a 6-1, 170-pound athletic sharpshooter who has developed into a threat to drive the ball. He also adds a tenacious defense, pressuring the ball.

“Terrance might be the most improved player in the OVC; he’s shooting the ball with a lot of confidence and driving now,” Tyndall said. “He’s also a guy that really pressures the ball.”

Along with Harper and Proffitt, expect trans-fer Lamont Austin to see significant time at the point guard position. A 6-0, 175-pound junior, Austin was recruited by Tyndall to play the point and can be good in defensive pressure as well, where he’s skilled at guarding off the dribble. Fel-low freshman Reggie Williams is a combo guard and has the potential to play the point guard or shooting guard. He can drive and shoot, much in the same mold as Harper, and if he has the right mindset, he has the makings of a true scorer. Kevin Gray will come off the bench to provide a scoring spark. Arguably the Eagles’ best shooter, Gray is a 5-10, 175-pound freshman.

The final player on the 2010-11 Eagle rosters is walk-on Taylor Maze. A product of nearby Bath County High School, Maze is rehabbing from knee surgery and is expected to red-shirt this season.

“This is the deepest team we’ve had during my time at Morehead State,” Tyndall said. “I like our athleticism and I think our press and pressure defense will wear people down.”

The Eagles will have their hands full with a tough schedule that includes several successful mid-major programs and a talented Ohio Valley Conference.

“We’ve got Ohio State and Florida, OSU is a preseason Top 20 and Florida is preseason #16,” Tyndall said. “Northern Iowa was a Sweet 16 participant, Kent State was an NIT participant that won the MAC regular season and is picked to do so again and Ball State is picked to win the other side of the MAC.

“The OVC is the deepest it’s been in years, you look at EKU that went to the post season last year, Murray State won an NCAA Tournament game and we went to the post season. The other top teams, Eastern Illinois and Austin Peay will be tough too.”

Despite the tough schedule, Tyndall likes the way his team is shaping up, mostly in their character.

I really like that our best player is very humble and I think that trickles down,” Tyndall said. “We’re aggressive but unselfish and our players care as much about the assists as scoring buckets.”

That’s a team trait that will serve the Eagles well, turning a crop of new faces, past successes and high expectations into another winning sea-son and championship run.

Demonte Harper is a versatile player that

will contribute significantly.

Kenneth Faried will try to return the Eagles

to the Big Dance as a senior.

Entering its 63rd year, the Ohio Valley Confer-ence continues to build on the success that has

made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. For only the second time in a decade, the Conference expanded by adding Southern Illinois University Edwardsville as the league’s 11th member in 2008. The move expanded the OVC’s geographical footprint to the St. Louis market and marked the first change in membership since expanding to the state of Alabama (Jacksonville State, Samford) in 2003.

The 2009-10 school year saw a change in lead-ership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences.

The OVC’s proud history dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles (Turkey) Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions combined with Morehead State, Louis-ville and Evansville to form the OVC.

In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept a black student. In 1958, Marshall Banks earned athletically-related aid at Morehead State, which signed a second black athlete, Howard Murphy, a year later. In 1961, Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic opportunities to African-Americans.

In 1955, the OVC became only the second six-member league nationally to earn an automatic bid to the prestigious NCAA Men’s Basketball Tour-

nament, which, at that time, was limited to only 24 participants. The Conference quickly proved worthy of that bid, as Morehead State defeated Marshall (107-92) and Wayne State (95-84) in the 1956 tournament.

Fifteen years later, former OVC member West-ern Kentucky became the first and only Conference team to reach the Final Four. The Hilltoppers defeated Jacksonville, Kentucky and Ohio State before losing to Villanova in double overtime. WKU went on to finish in third place after beating Kansas 77-75 in the consolation game.

Since that time, the OVC has recorded some of the biggest upsets in the history of the NCAA Tournament. Perhaps the most famous moment came in 1987, when Austin Peay came from fourth place in the regular season to win the OVC Tour-nament and earn the league’s automatic bid. The Governors drew powerful Illinois, and were such big underdogs, that ESPN broadcaster Dick Vitale promised to stand on his head if APSU won the game. After a 68-67 victory over the Illini, and a narrow 90-87 overtime loss to eventual Final Four participant Providence in the second round, Vitale made good on his promise in a visit to Clarksville two months later.

Murray State added to the OVC’s string of upsets in 1988 when it knocked off 14th-ranked North Carolina State, 78-75. The Racers’ M&M Boys - Jeff Martin and Don Mann - combined for 39 points in the win. MSU nearly went on to the Sweet 16 that year, losing to eventual national champion Kansas, 61-58. A bank shot by Mann that would’ve given the Racers a one-point lead rolled off the rim with three seconds left. In 1990 as a No. 16 seed, Murray State took No. 1 seed Michigan State into overtime before falling 75-71; that game still marks the closest a No. 16 seed has come to knocking off a No. 1 in men’s tournament action. More recently, Murray State has dominated the OVC Tournament, reaching the championship game every year in the 1990s. The Racers’ 14 OVC Tournament Champi-onships are the most among all OVC schools.

After former member Middle Tennessee State won a first round game in 1989, the league had a drought as no other OVC team won a NCAA Tournament game for the next 19 years. But Morehead State, coming off a thrilling double overtime OVC Tournament victory over Austin Peay, topped Alabama State 58-43 in the Opening Round game at Flyer Arena in Dayton, Ohio. The game was played in front of an Opening Round record crowd of 11,346; that crowd included many MSU fans who made the three hour drive from Morehead for the game. The Eagles season would

come to an end three days later when they lost to No. 1 overall seed Louisville, despite playing the Cardinals close for a majority of the game.

In 2009-10, Murray State made OVC history by winning a record 31 games (31-5) on its way to the league’s regular season and tournament cham-pionship. In the first round of the NCAA Tourna-ment, the No. 13 seed Racers topped Vanderbilt in thrilling fashion when senior Danero Thomas hit

a jumper as time expired to lift MSU to a 66-65 victory. It marked the first OVC team to advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament since 1989, and snapped a skid of 71-straight loses to Southeastern Conference foes (dating back to 2000-01). In the second round the Racers pushed eventual national runner-up Butler to the brink before losing 54-52.

Through its 62 years, 12 teams have won or shared the league’s regular season men’s basketball title. Murray State heads the list with a Conference-record 21 outright or shared basketball crowns. Other past champions include former member Western Kentucky (19), Morehead State (9), Austin Peay (8), Eastern Kentucky (6), Tennessee Tech (5), former member Middle Tennessee (5), Tennessee State (2), former member East Tennessee State (2), Southeast Missouri State (1), UT Martin (who won its first in 2008-09) and former member Akron (1).

Among the coaching greats in men’s basketball have been Western Kentucky’s E.A. Diddle, who retired with 759 victories and 10 OVC titles; John Oldham, who was a member of the very first All-OVC squad and went on to win seven OVC crowns during his coaching tenure at Tennessee Tech and Western Kentucky; Paul McBrayer, who guided Eastern Kentucky to 219 wins and three OVC crowns; and Cal Luther, who is the only person in Conference history to win men’s basketball Coach of the Year honors at two league schools - Murray State and UT Martin. Current Austin Peay head coach Dave Loos became the winningest coach in OVC history in 2009-10, netting his 319th victory and passing Luther on the all-time list. Loos enters the 2010-11 season with 331 victories.

There have been an equal number of great play-ers including Western Kentucky’s Clem Haskins, who is the only three-time OVC Player of the Year. Several players have won OVC Player of the Year honors twice: Western Kentucky’s Jim McDaniels (1969-70 and 1970-71), Murray State’s Les Taylor (1971-72, 1972-73), Jeff Martin (1987-88, 1988-89), Popeye Jones (1989-90, 1990-91) and Marcus Brown (1994-95, 1995-96), Austin Peay’s Otis Howard (1976-77, 1977-78), Middle Tennessee’s Jerry Beck (1980-81, 1981-82), Akron’s Joe Jaku-bick (1982-83, 1983-84), Tennessee State’s Carlos Rogers (1992-93, 1993-94) and UT Martin’s Les-ter Hudson (2007-08, 2008-09).

The OVC also has the honor of being the only conference to boast the nation’s leaders in scoring, rebounding and assists all in one season. That feat was accomplished in 1991-92 by Morehead State’s Brett Roberts (28.1 ppg), Murray State’s Popeye Jones (14.4 rpg) and Tennessee Tech’s Van Usher (8.8 apg).

In 2007-08, UT Martin guard Lester Hudson became the first men’s Division I player to record a quadruple-double in a game, when he registered

25 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 10 steals in a victory over Central Baptist College. Hudson, who ranked fourth in scoring nationally as a junior, returned for his senior season in 2008-09 and was second nationally in scoring (behind Davidson’s Stephen Curry) at 27.5 points a contest. Hudson earned numerous honors (including OVC Player of the Year and OVC Male Ath-lete of the Year in each 2008 and 2009 and All-American status from several outlets) before being drafted by the Boston Celtics with the No. 58 pick of the 2009 NBA Draft. Hudson became the first draft pick for the league since 2004 and only the third pick of the last decade for the OVC.

The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes excel-lence in the classroom. Six Scholar-Athlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female athletes, while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot on the Commissioner’s Honor Roll. Addi-tionally, the league annually presents one institu-tional Academic Achievement Award, as well as separate team awards in each Conference-sponsored sport. Since the College Sports Information Direc-tors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-America program began, the Ohio Valley Conference has had 192 student-athletes honored with the award, including 25 over the last two years (2008-09, 2009-10).

Through the early years of the league, admin-istrators wrestled with fan behavior due to the close proximity of the Conference members and the intense rivalries which developed. Just as it did decades ago, the OVC took the leadership role on what has become a national issue. In 1995, the OVC implemented a first-of-its-kind “Sportsman-ship Statement,” a policy which promotes principles of fair play, ethical conduct and respect for one’s opponent. The statement has become a model for others to follow across the nation, and has answered the challenge of the NCAA Presidents Commission to improve sportsmanship in collegiate athletics. Additionally, the OVC annually presents the Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award, in honor of the former Morehead State student-athlete, coach and athletics director, to a junior or senior student-athlete with significant athletic contributions who best exemplifies the characteristics of sportsmanship and citizenship. Most recently, the Conference has also implemented the OVC Institutional and Team

Sportsmanship Awards, which are presented to one institution and 18 sport-specific teams voted by their peers to have best exhibited the standards of sportsmanship and ethical conduct as outlined by the OVC and NCAA.

The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross coun-try, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, ten-nis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle.

Now in its seventh decade of competition, the Ohio Valley Conference has grown significantly from its humble beginnings while increasing the number of athletics opportunities it provides for students. Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State Uni-versity, along with Austin Peay State Univer-sity, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennes-see State University, Tennessee Technological Uni-versity and the University of Tennessee at Martin.


Morehead State and Murray State are

picked at the top of what should be a

strong field of talent in this year’s Ohio

Valley Conference.

Welcome To

Morehead StateMeeting the educational needs

of East Kentucky while striving to constantly improve the quality of its public service, economic development and applied research programs are the primary objectives of Morehead State University.

Historically, the University traces its lineage to the Morehead Normal School, which opened its doors in 1887. The private school closed in the spring of 1922 when the Kentucky General Assembly established Morehead State Normal School. The state institution accepted its first students in the fall of 1923 and graduated its first class in 1927. Name changes occurred in 1926 when “and Teachers College” was added, again in 1930 when it was shortened to More-head State Teachers College, again in 1948 when “Teachers” was dropped and, finally, to university status in 1966. Thirteen men, start-ing with Frank C. Button, have served as presi-dent. Dr. Wayne D. Andrews assumed the office on Jan. 1, 2005.

Academically, the University offers 76 under-graduate degree programs, including eight asso-ciate level degrees and 12 pre-professional pro-grams in four colleges -- Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences; Business and Public Affairs; Education; and Science and Technology -- and 20 academic departments. There are 71 graduate degree programs plus 40 graduate level nonde-gree programs designed especially for profes-sional educators. The education specialist degree in five specialty areas also is offered. A master’s degree for physician assistants, social workers and a cooperative doctoral program, all with

the University of Kentucky, are available on the MSU campus. In 2010, the University began its doctorate in education (Ed.D.) in educational leadership degree.

Classes are conducted in Ashland, Jackson, Maysville, Mt. Sterling, Pikeville, Prestonsburg, West Liberty and other locations. Regional campus-es--located in Ashland, Jackson, Mt. Sterling, Pre-

stonsburg and West Liberty--are staffed with full-time directors. Additionally, the University offers a number of distance learning courses throughout the region via the Internet and interactive compressed video. Sixty-seven percent of MSU’s 370 full-time faculty members hold doctoral degrees.

Physically, the University is located in the foothills of the Daniel Boone National Forest in

Rowan County. The main campus, nearly 500-acres located within the city limits of Morehead, includes more than 50 major structures with a total replacement value of more than $144 million. Beyond the city, the University’s real estate holdings include the 320-acre Derrickson Agricultural Complex and Eagle Trace, a par-72, 6,902-yard public golf course. The instruc-

tional facilities includes 120 classrooms and 112 laboratories. Campus housing includes space for approximately 2,800 students in a variety of housing styles including traditional residence halls, suites and apartments.

Fiscally, the University will operate on an annual budget of $129.2 million in 2010-11 with about $41.7 million provided by the state and $52.7 million coming from tuition and fees. Additionally, grants and contracts from external sources for research, service and academic/student support projects generate more than $15 mil-lion each year. Annual private donations to the University, through the MSU Foundation, Inc., average nearly $3 million annually.

Statistically, the University has awarded more than 50,000 degrees and currently has more than 1,100 full-time employees. Enrollment for fall 2009 was more than 9,000 with the student body representing 106 Kentucky counties, 42 states and 35 foreign countries. The University attracts more than 60,000 visitors annually and its economic impact, directly and indirectly, on the Morehead area is estimated at more than $90 million yearly.

Administratively, an 11-member Board of Regents governs the University with eight citizens appointed by the governor and three seats held by elected faculty, staff and student representatives.

Management of the institution is vested primarily in five divisions--Academic Affairs, Administra-tion and Fiscal Services, Planning and Budgets, Student Life, and University Advancement.

Athletically, the University sponsors 16 inter-collegiate sports for men and women in accor-dance with the regulations of the Ohio Valley Conference, the Pioneer Football League and Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. MSU also supports an intramural program involving more than 25 team and indi-vidual sports.

A New England native who made Appalachia his adopted home, Dr. Wayne D. Andrews

has served since Jan. 1, 2005, as the 13th presi-dent of Morehead State University.

He is a graduate of Fitchburg State College in Massachusetts where he earned a B. S. degree in

1974 and of West Virginia University where he received a master’s in 1976 and a doctorate in 1977.

Dr. Andrews has nearly 35 years of higher education experience at three public, compre-hensive universities – Morehead State, East Ten-nessee State and Illinois State.

Morehead State University believes that Intercollegiate Athletics is an integral part of the University and that a broad-based intercollegiate

athletics program encourages student participation and involvement in the

total life of the University. In addition, intercollegiate athletic programs play a positive role by supporting the academic and public service missions of the University.

Dear Friends:

Morehead State University is committed to upholding the highest integrity within all procedures and practices of the ath-letic department. We are pleased to publish this note as a reference to understanding often confusing NCAA regulations.

The NCAA defines “representatives of athletic interests” as alumni, friends and boosters of the University. All member institutions are held accountable for their representatives’ actions. One violation could jeopardize the eligibility of any or all Eagle athletic programs.

As a general rule, anyone who has financially supported Eagle Athletics, been a member of any booster organization, or who has supported Eagle Athletics is considered a “representative” of Eagle Athletics.

Prospective student-athletes can be defined as a student who has started classes in the ninth grade or any younger student-athlete who has received a benefit from the institution. These individuals may only be recruited by MSU coaches who have passed the NCAA Recruiting Rules Examination. While “representatives” of Eagle Athletics may speak to any of these individu-als via telephone or in person, a recruiting effort must not be made. Also, no student-athlete or prospective student-athlete may receive any extra benefit outside of the support provided by the institution. For any questions regarding this description, please contact me at 606-783-5136.

These are certainly not all the regulations any “representative” of Eagle Athletics must remember. However, they provide a good outline of the types of things that could endanger the eligibility of any MSU Athletics program. Again, feel free to contact us if you have any questions. Thanks again for your support of Morehead State Athletics.

Sincerely,

Richard Fletcher Associate Director of Athletics/Compliance

One of the most important aspects of the Morehead State athletic department is aca-

demics, and the department has excellent facilities and staff to provide MSU student-athletes with the best possible technology and know-how to help them succeed in the classroom.

A state-of-the-art computer center and resource center, which was also recently updated, are avail-able in the Academic-Athletic Center. Academic Coordinator Valerie Ousley and her staff of students and volunteers also provide academic monitoring, tutoring and counseling in the Academic Center.

On a year-by-year basis, Morehead State stu-dent-athletes continually rank among the best in the Ohio Valley Conference, and the athletic department once again won the OVC’s Institu-tional Academic Achievement Award for 2009-2010. In all, MSU has now claimed an OVC-record 10 Academic Achievement Banners. The award is given to the institution with the highest percentage of all its student-athletes named on the Commissioner’s Honor Roll.

Individual teams have also shown success in the classroom while excelling in the field iof play. The rifle team was named an All-Academic Team by the National Collegiate Rifle Coaches Associa-tion, and the volleyball team has won numerous Team Academic Awards by the American Volley-ball Coaches Association.

The MSU athletic department also has had a large number of student-athletes awarded an

Ohio Valley Conference Medal of Honor, includ-ing 17 for 2008-09. Rifle student-athlete Shawn Holley was the only shooter in the league to earn the rifle Medal of Honor.

The strength and conditioning program at Morehead State provides student-athletes

with the best possible physical and mental train-ing to help them perform at their peak potential.

Under the direction of head coach Kevin Deweese, the individual sport programs focus on physical and mental training and nutrition for that particular sport as well as particular athletes. Deweese and his staff develop programs that will help athletes reach their maximum potential and prevent injuries.

Athletes have several options for weight training with the centerpiece of the program being the Phil Simms Weight Training Cen-ter.

Morehead State Athletics Where Championships Happen

Morehead, Ky., is a commu-nity of nearly 10,000, nes-

tled in the foothills of the Appa-lachian Mountains in the Daniel Boone National Forest. It serves as the educational, medical, recreational and cultural center of rural north-east Kentucky and is located in the state’s Gateway Area. Morehead also is known as the “Hardwood Capital of the World.” For the many lumber industries that provide jobs and prod-uct in the area.

Situated on the state’s major east-west highway, Interstate 64, More-head is 58 miles west of Ashland, Ky., and the border of West Virginia, and 66 miles east of Kentucky’s second-most populat-ed city, Lexington. Its centralized location allows many parts of the Eastern and Midwestern United States to be readily accessible. Among the major cities within a day’s drive are Washington, D.C.; Baltimore; Charlotte; Raleigh, N.C.; Atlanta; Knoxville, Tenn.; Nashville; Cincinnati; Dayton, Ohio; Columbus, Ohio; Cleveland; Pittsburgh; Indianapolis; Detroit; Chicago; St. Louis; Mem-phis; Birmingham, Ala.; and Louisville, Ky.

Located in the heart of Rowan County, Morehead affords a wealth of activities for the outdoorsman. Just six miles from downtown is beautiful 8,270-acre, man-made Cave Run Lake, an area nationally-known for its recreation opportunities and the fifth-largest body of water in Kentucky. Hiking, biking, swimming, boating, fishing, water skiing, canoeing, bird watching, camping or enjoying the solitude of nature are some of the highlights of the activities at Cave

Run Lake. The lake is known as the “Muskie Fishing Capital of the South” and hosts numerous tour-naments each year. Daniel Boone National Forest, within which Cave Run Lake is entirely located, is visited by over five million people annually, and Morehead also is home to the Minor E. Clark Fish Hatchery, the largest fresh water fish hatchery in the U.S.

Carter Caves, just 25 miles from Morehead in nearby Carter County, is another popular outdoor spot just a short drive down I-64. The his-toric town of Maysville, Ky., a major stopover point on the Civil War-era

Underground Railroad, is located 45 minutes north on the Ohio River, and offers more enter-tainment options.

Golf is another popular outdoor activity in Morehead. Eagle Trace Golf Course, owned by the university now, is an 18-hole, par-72 course, which has hosted both the state’s men’s and wom-en’s amateur championship and has been given four stars by Golf Digest. Many other courses are within 30 minutes of Morehead.

Through administrative and athletic leadership at Morehead State, a study of athletics facili-

ties commenced in the winter of 2006 to identify a plan that would guide decisions made by MSU Athletics well into the 21st century. Heery Inter-national, acclaimed architects and facilities plan-ners, was selected to complete the study.

All potential constituent groups were con-sulted throughout the process. While MSU has much to be proud of, it became quite apparent that significant work should be done to improve the athletics physical plant.

The drawing you see here provides a map of what is to come. In all, over $89 million of work was identified and encompasses five new facilities and five

renovated facilities. The first scheduled work will be the renovation of the University’s Wellness Center into a state-of-the-art Athletics Academic Resource Building.

For more information or if you’d like to help MSU realize these goals, please contact MSU Director of Athletics Brian Hutchinson at [email protected] or at 606-783-2089.
