between head coaches Lou Tepper of Edinboro and Gannon's Bill
Elias. Both were members of Gerry DiNardo's staff at LSD in 1998.

EDINBORO (0-1)

THE COACHES

Edinboro head coach lou Tepper (Rutgers‘671 is in his second season
in charge of the Fighting Scots. A year ago he matched the school
record for most wins by a first-year head coach as the Scots fin­
ished 5-6. Renowned as a defensive genius, Tepper has worked on
the staffs of some of the top programs in the country, including
Virginia Tech, Colorado and LSU. But his greatest notoriety came
at Illinois, where he coached from 1989-96. The defensive coordi­
nator and later assistant head coach from 1988-91, Tepper was
appointed the Fighting Illini head coach on December 13, 1991,
just prior to the team's appearance in the John Hancock Sun Bowl.
He would go on to guide the Illini to two more bowl games while
posting a 25-31-2 ledger. He now owns an overall mark of 30-382.

Bill Ellas (Massachusotts 771

is in his third year as the
head coach at Gannon, becoming just the third
Golden Knight head coach in 1999. He has com­
piled a 5-16 record, going 3-7 a year ago. Elias
served as an assistant at LSU from 1994 until his
arrival at Gannon. He coached the outside lineback­
ers and tight ends, and served as the recruiting
coordinator. Prior to his stint at LSU, he coached at

Vanderbilt. Elias has also had stints at Eastern Michigan, Delaware
and Massachusetts.

EAST WEEK’S GAMES
Ashlanil2l[iUnlioro9

Ashland scored the first two times it had the ball to take a 14-0
lead less than ten minutes into the contest. Sean McNichdIas' 38yard field goal cut the margin to 14-3, and the Fighting Scots
appeared ready to close the gap even further late in thd first half.
However, a fumbled snap from center was recovered by Ashland at
the Eagle 9, and the Eagles proceeded to drive 91 yards to take a
21-3 lead into intermission. In all, Edinboro drove inside the
Ashland ten yard line three times and came away with no points.

Edinboro University would like
to extend its condolences to
Ronald and Zerelda Geis on the
loss of their son Ron this past
summer. The brother of
Edinboro senior wide receiver
Josh Geis, Ron was a defensive
back at Gannon in the mid1990's, serving as a three-year
starter at strong safety.

He returned in the second half,
catching 2 passes for 29 yards.
That included a 12-yard touchdown catch, the first six-pointer of
his career.

IHJBRYREPBRT

While numerous preseason injuries, including the loss for the entire
season of starting right guard Jason Oman to ankle surgery, the
Fighting Scots came away in decent shape against Ashland. That
is for the exception of Justin Lipscomb, who suffered a broken col­
larbone and is out for the year. The redshirt freshman saw plenty
of action at wide receiver, catching one pass. He also returned 3
punts for 31 yards and one kickoff for 12 yards.

FIRST-TIME STARTERS

A total of six players, four on offense, made their first starts
against Ashland. Otto Hoover, a converted defensive lineman,
opened at left tackle. He was joined on the offensive line by
another sophomore, Anthony Peluso, who started at right guard.
Freshman Ed Brown got the starting call at tight end, with Lincoln
Bufalino, a sophomore, starting at wide receiver. On defense,
sophomore Justin Koi opened at defensive tackle, while junior Jeff
Richardson got the starting nod at strong safety.

REBIBHEBIFFICBITIES

Despite scoring just nine points, Edinboro exhibited an improved
offense, racking up 317 yards against a strong Ashland defense.
However, the Fighting Scots drove inside the Ashland ten three
times and failed to score a point. The first drive ended at the AU 9
following a fumble. The second occurred early in the third quarter,
with the Scots marching to the three before settling for a 32-yard
field goal attempt which failed. On the third drive, Edinboro came
up empty on a 4th-and-l play from the AU 7.

HEAD
COACH
UU TEPPER
Veteran Division I mentor Lou
Tepper was appointed the 12th
head football coach at Edinboro
University, officially taking charge
of the Fighting Scot program on
January 5, 2000.
Tepper inherited an Edinboro
program which had won just
eleven games in the previous three
seasons. His five-win season in
2000 matched the Edinboro record
for most victories by a first-year
head coach.
The season-ending three game
winning streak propelled the
Fighting Scots into an enthusiastic
winter conditioning session and confident spring practice.

BACKGROUND

Tepper, a native of Keystone, PA, returned to the Division II
level after coaching at Division I institutions for almost thirty
years. He is renowned as a defensive coaching genius, with a
resume that includes three Butkus Award honorees and an Outland
Trophy winner. Tepper's list of defensive standouts include Bruce
Smith, John Holecek, Simeon Rice, Kevin Hardy, and Henry
Jones, all current NFL standouts. In addition, he has worked with
some of the top head coaches in the country, including Bill Dooley
at Virginia Tech, Bill McCartney at Colorado, John Mackovic at
Illinois and Gerry DiNardo at LSU.
"Being a native of western Pennsylvania, it has been neat to be
a head coach
again and to be
had an outstanding pool of
a head coach in
candidates to choose from, but
this environ­
Lou's integrity, coaching back­
ment," Tepper
follow­
ground and national notoriety stood related
ing his first

season at
Edinboro. "I've
Edinboro provides the opportunity
to be one of the top programs in the recruited west­
ern
PSAC, and look at Lou Tepper as
Pennsylvania
for half of my
the coach to restore our program to career.
It’s a
that level"
joy to be back
home."
Tepper com­
Dr. Frank Pogue Jr.
pleted his sec­
President, Edinboro University
ond full season
as the defen­
sive coordinator at Louisiana State University last year. He began
his tenure with the Tigers on December 15, 1997, helping LSU to a
27-9 Independence Bowl win over Notre Dame. All told, he has
served as a defensive coordinator for 19 of his 33 years in the
coaching profession.

BIG TEN HEAD COACH

The 5 5-year-old Tepper was appointed the head coach at the
University of Illinois on December 13, 1991, just prior to the
team's appearance in the John Hancock Sun Bowl. He replaced
Mackovic, who left for the head coaching position at the
University of Texas. During his five year stint as the Fighting

mini head coach, Tepper compiled a record of 25-31-2, including
two more bowl appearances. He guided Illinois to a pair of wins
over Ohio State, including one at Columbus; the school's first victoty in Ann Arbor against Michigan in 27 years; and three consec­
utive wins over rival Iowa by a combined score of 122-17. Just as
impressive, Tepper graduated 91 percent of his seniors.
Tepper joined the Illinois program in 1988, serving as the
defensive coordinator for four seasons and assistant head coach for
two years. In his nine seasons at Illinois, he helped the program to
six bowl invitations, one Big Ten title and top ten rankings in the
AP and UPI polls.
He was honored as the Big Ten's top defensive assistant coach
in 1990 by The Sporting News. His defensive units annually
ranked among the best in the country, finishing 10th in 1989, 14th
in 1993, ninth in 1994, and 21st in 1995.
Tepper’s 1992 Illini squad finished 6-5-1, suffering a 27-17
defeat to Hawaii in the Holiday Bowl. Illinois went in to^
Columbus and upset Ohio State, 18-16, and posted a 22-22 tie
against Michigan in Ann Arbor.
While his ‘93 edition finished 5-6, that included a 24-21 win
in Ann Arbor against the Wolverines. The Illini made it back to
postseason play in 1994, handing East Carolina a 30-0 whitewash­
ing in the Liberty Bowl. The ‘94 squad finished 7-5, again upset­
ting one of the elite in the Big Ten. And once again it was on the
road, as Illinois shocked Ohio State, 24-10, in Columbus behind
Butkus Award winner Dana Howard.

LINEBACKERS

While Penn State has gained the reputation as "Linebacker U",
Illinois could make a good case for that designation as well during
Tepper's tenure. He produced _______________________________

VIRGINIA TECH

In 1978, Virginia Tech head coach Bill Dooley hired Tepper as
his linebackers coach. Tepper helped build the Hokies into a con­
sistent bowl contender with a defense that annually ranked among
the nation's top ten. He stayed at Virginia Tech from 1978-82,
working with Outland Trophy winner and Buffalo Bills great
Bruce Smith, among others. The 1980 Hokie edition played
Miami(FL) in the Peach Bowl.

COLORADO

Tepper joined Bill McCartney's staff at Colorado in 1983,
serving as the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach until
departing for Illinois in 1988. Tepper helped turn around a Buffalo
defense which ranked No. 100 nationally in yards allowed prior to
his arrival, to one which was as high as 11th in Division I in total
defense. He earned the title of assistant head coach to McCartney
his final two seasons, and helped the Buffaloes to the 1985
Freedom Bowl and the 1986 Blue Bonnet Bowl. Among the assis­
tant coaches at Colorado was Gerry DiNardo, who would later
bring Tepper in to direct his LSU defense.

PERSONAL BACKGROUND

ATHLETK FUND DRIVE
Dear Friends of the Fighting Scots:

It hardly seems possible, but we’ve completed
another year of Fighting Scot athletics. The first full year
of the new millennium was an exciting campaign, as our
student-athletes once again made us quite proud on the
playing fields and in the classroom.
Our pride goes much deeper, however. Due to the
generosity of many loyal Fighting Scot fans, our Third
Annual Athletic Fund Drive eclipsed our expectations.
One area which we have stressed in our fund drive has
been endowed scholarships. I am pleased to announce
that we now offer 49 endowed scholarships.
Please allow me to take a moment and extend my
heartfelt thanks for your contributions in 2000-2001.
But there is still so much to be done. We will
always strive to be a pacesetter, and not a follower.
With that in mind, we are once again reaching out to the
entire Edinboro community to help support our athletic
program. We realize that our success lies directly with
the continuous support of our campus community, alum­
ni and friends.
Over the past few years we’ve strived to raise
funds through Endowed Scholarships, Gifts-in-Kind,
Securities, Trusts and Bequests. I’m very excited about
the formation of the Hall of Fame Scholarship. We now
have 135 members in our Hall of Fame, and thanks to
the assistance of many devoted Fighting Scot fans, this
endeavor is off to a flying start.
Once again, with no state appropriations for ath­
letic scholarships, we depend on fund raising events
such as the Annual Athletic Fund Drive to supplement
our athletic programs. Our summer camp season con­
tinues to be the main source of our financial develop­
ment, but we cannot maintain our level of excellence
without your support. Although still funded well below
the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)
allowable limit, our athletic scholarship program
attempts to create the best educational and athletic
opportunities for our student-athletes.
At Edinboro University, we are quite proud of our
past successes and rich tradition, but we cannot rest
upon past accomplishments while our sister-institutions
pass us by in the world of athletic fund raising.
Once again, we look forward to hearing from you
soon. Please feel free to contact my office with any
questions about our fund drive. I entertain any recom­
mendations or suggestions which would better our
University and its athletic department.
Sincerely,
Bruce R. Baumgartner^

IMPORTANT:Contribution can be made to the GENERAL FUND, an ENDOWMENT, or SPORT SPECIFIC ~ a
portion will go directly to the sport you designate.

Organized two decades ago, the Fighting Scot Booster Club’s primary mission
is to provide financial support for the athletic program while promoting community aware­
ness and involvement in the University.
Each spring, members of the Fighting Scot Booster Club will conduct a national and
community-wide fund raising campaign to support the cost of athletic operating expenses.
While student activity fees cover a portion of operating expenses, private funding is crucial
in maintaining the level of excellence the Fighting Scot programs have enjoyed in recent
years.
Your membership affords Edinboro University and its athletic program the opportunity
to offer a quality athletic and academic experience to its student-athletes. State appropri­
ations are not allotted for scholarships, making the Booster Club and the departmental fund
raising efforts the sole means of raising money for the athletic scholarships.

I am truly impressed with the 11 supporters below from our community who supported our players with
evening snacks throughout grueling double sessions in August. In the past, our players had nothing to
eat in the evening after two practices, conditioning and lifting. When I told them of Edinboro’s
response, they reacted with the loudest applause of camp. This is the second year the community
has reached out and assisted us. Our players continually asked me to thank each of the
restaurants/eateries below. In 30 years of coaching at the Division I level, I never had players respond
with such gratitude.
Please support our hometown restaurants! THANK YOU.

TWO GREAT NAMES,
Since arriving in Edinboro in January 2000, I have
felt it is essential that we give to the community
and vice versa. It has been very gratifying to the
response of local organizations in assisting
Edinboro football. One sucj> intsnace was assis­
tance gathered from the following civic organiza­
tions in conducting our football raffle during the
Bills/Browns scrimmage in August. There assis­
tance was greatly appreciated. Myself and my
coaching staff looks forward to working with these
organizations in the future.

TODAY’S FEATURE

TWOISBEHERTHANONE

Edinboro has had a 1,000-yard rusher the last three seasons
and eight of the last nine years. That fete might not happen this
year, but it won't be for lack of a talented ballcarrier.
In fact, the one-two punch of Alonzo Roebuck and John
Williams could leave the Fighting Scots in their best tailback situa­
tion in years. It certainly looked that way in Edinboro's season
opening loss at Ashland. The tandem was one of the few bright
spots in the 27-9 setback.
Williams rushed for a career-best 114 yards on just 13 carries,
breaking off a 65-yard run. Roebuck also set a career high with 81
yards on 16 carries.
But those numbers indicate why the 1,000 yard streak might
come to an end. Unlike previous years where 20-30 carries would
be the norm, head coach Lou Tapper will likely split the ballcarrying
duties. That means while the talent is there, the attempts might
not be.
"Both are very capable runners," noted Tapper. "If we only
had one we'd feel like we had a good tailback. They will share the
spot"
"I was happy that we were able to have success running the
ball," commented Williams following the Ashland game. "It gives
us a look into what we can do. We have to take the game as a
learning experience. We need to eliminate the mistakes and not
shoot ourselves in the foot."
Roebuck was also pleased with the team's ability to run the
ball, but shed a little light into one of the problems with the two
back system. "When you're splitting time it's kind of hard to get
into your groove," he admitted. "You have to be hungry and want
it. It's a competition between the two to get each other going."
Both players bear a similar background. The two transferred
to Edinboro a year ago. Roebuck from Pittsburgh and Williams from
the University of Rhode Island. With Bernard Henry already in resi­
dence, it left Tepper with a pleasant dilemma, and Roebuck with a
new position, at least for the first five games. The 5'11", 198 lb.
senior moved to wide receiver, where he played the first five games
before moving back to tailback. He ended up catching 8 passes for
66 yards and carrying the pigskin 35 times for 182 yards.
"When I decided to come
here, there were only two
positions open," recalled
Roebuck, "running back and
strong, safety. I thought I
would play strong safety. I
didn't play either. I ended up
playing wide receiver. It was
for the better of the team."
Williams, a native of
Millgrove, Ontario, found the
travel involved with the
Division I level exciting, but is
glad to now be at Edinboro.
"Overall, playing at the
Division I level was a very
positive experience. You got
to travel a lot and see a lot of
the country that I wouldn't
have been able to experience.
The bottom line is football is
football. I'm just glad to be
playing."
Alonzo Roebuck
A 6'0", 197 lb. senior.

Williams was reunited with Tepper after initially almost going to
Illinois to play for the veteran mentor. He came out of Canada as
the most highly-regarded senior running back.
"Probably the first thing I looked at when coming to Edinboro
was coach Tepper," Williams stated. "His staff recruited me out of
high schooll when he was at Illinois. I was all set to go there and
then he got fired. This is nice because it's close to home, only
about three hours away. Rhode Island was nine hours away."
After choosing Rhode Island, Williams emerged as the secondleading rusher in 1999 with 222 yards. He more than doubled that
total while serving as Henry's backup a year ago, gaining 483 yards
on 140 carries. That included a 109-yard effort at Lock Haven, the
first 100-yard game of his collegiate career.
"Coming in I kind of expected for things to go the way they
did," admitted Williams. "Bernard was such a great back and
brought so much to the program. I was glad to be able to play
with him. I think we worked well together."
Roebuck, meanwhile, credits another member of the Edinboro
staff with influencing him to become a Fighting Scot. "Coach
(Scott) Browning continuously called me," noted Roebuck. "I was
really impressed with the interest he showed. Playing at that level
(Pittsburgh) was a good feeling, but I didn't get too many opportu­
nities."
Roebuck is the speed back, running a 10.6 100, and also pos­
sesses plenty of power. Williams, meanwhile, is a shifty runner.
While the styles differ, both are accomplished receivers, a must in
the Edinboro offense.
"Alonzo Roebuck has great speed," Tepper pointed out. "John
Williams has "make-you-miss" ability. They're unique in that they
are both transfers who have really become the heart and soul of
our team. Their character sticks out just as strongly as their ability.
They are tremendous role models for our freshmen players."
The differing styles give opponents plenty to worry about, and
Edinboro's tailback tandem admits they feed off each other's tal­
ents. "I don't mind sharing the position," Roebuck emphasized.
"We have a number of quality backs yvho can get the job done.
We have one goal - to win. WhatQ'^er we can do to accomplish
that."
That winning attitude
comes through in how they
want to be seen - as com­
plete players.
"I think I'm a versatile
player," related Roebuck. "I
can be a power runner, or a
make-you-miss runner. And I
can catch the ball."
Perhaps Williams sums it
up best for both talented tail­
backs. "I'm a slasher,"
Williams emphasized. "I have
the ability to make people
miss. I'm able to catch the
ball out of the backfield.
"I never wanted to be
just an average-type back.
My dad used to tell me to
never settle for being just
average. I want to be above
average.
Williams
