Jerome Stelly was a First Team All-Conference WR in 1981 and 1982 and was an AP Honorable Mention in '82. He was the team's top receiver, top scorer, and top kick return man in 1982. He holds quite a few game records in the kick return category, mostly due to one particularly exceptional game against Youngstown State in 1981 where he returned two kicks for TDs (a 99-yarder and a 97-yarder) and totaled 228 kick return yards in the game. Most of the records he set in that game were FCS or NCAA records for at least 10 years (the kick returns for TD in a game record was broken in 1994 when someone did 3 in a game). In his career, he returned 3 kicks for TDs and racked up 1,024 kick return yards (#4 on the list for kick return yards in Western history).

Lance Earl was an All-Conference Honorable Mention WR in 1991.

Matt Warner was a TE who is #3 on the list of Yards per Reception in a season (30.4 in 2008), which is #1 for TE's. He also put together 16.9 yards per reception in 2009 and 15.7 in 2007, good for #8 and #10 on the TE Yards per Reception list. In his career, he has the 9th most receptions for a TE (39), 8th (tied) most TDs (5), and 6th most yards (762).

Antoine Ford was an All-Conference Honorable Mention return man in 2013. He's tied for the 2nd and 4th most punt returns in a game (6 against UNI in 2013 and 4 against South Dakota in 2012). He also has the 4th most punt return yards in a season with 301 in 2013.

There is 1 week left until Leatherneck football is back...I repeat...1 WEEK!
Image

#7 on the Leathernecks is...
Senior Tight End Trey Dunkelberger
Image

Trey is working on his Sport Management Master's degree at Western after transferring here from Syracuse (earned bachelor's degree in Human Development), where he played for two years. He also spent a year at L.A. Pierce College. Trey is originally from Shillington, PA.

Other #7's include:
Daryl Mosby...........................1980-81
Jeff Marawski..........................1982-83
Mark Searcy...........................1983-84
Albert Brown................................ 1985
Kelvin Malone.........................1986-90
Willie Davis.................................. 1991
Donald Harris.............................. 1992
Bobby Stevens............................ 1994
Brad Freeman........................1996-97
Tito Veasey.................................. 1999
Frisman Jackson....................2000-01
Stacy Coleman............................ 2002
James Norris..........................2003-04
Mike McEachern.....................2005-08
Todd Speight..........................2007-10
Josh Hudson.......................... 2011-12
Lance Lenoir, Jr......................2013-16

Mark Searcy was a Second Team All-Conference TE in 1983 and 1984. He has the 4th and 5th best seasons for total receptions by a TE (38 in '83 and 37 in '84), is tied for the 8th best season for TDs for a TE (4 in 1983), and 8th and 9th best seasons for yards by a TE (440 in 1984 and 398 in 1983). In his career, he ranks 3rd among TE's for receptions with 79, and is tied for 10th among TE's in TDs with 4.

Albert Brown was a Second Team All-Conference and FB Gazette Honorable Mention WR in 1986. He has the 2nd longest reception in Western history with a 96-yard TD catch against UNI in 1986, and he is tied for the 2nd longest rush (yea...rush) in Western history with an 86-yard run against Kansas State in 1986. That year he led the team in receptions (39), receiving yards (595), and kickoff return yards (531, 27.9 per return w/ 1 TD).

Frisman Jackson transferred to Western after spending a year as the starting QB at Northern. He was named to the conference All-Newcomer list at QB in 2000 and then First Team All-Conference and FB Gazette Honorable Mention at WR in 2001. Frisman has the 6th longest run in Leatherneck history with a 77-yard TD run against SIU in 2000 (which set the record for the longest rush by a QB). In his career as a QB, he has the 4th best yards per attempt average (8.1), but it was as a WR that he really stood out. He's tied for the record for most receptions in a game with 14 against Indiana State in 2001, and has the #1 and #2 spots for most receiving yards in a game (286 against IN State in '01, 266 against Southern Utah in '01). He is tied for #9 (many times with another #7 player we'll get to in a minute) in TDs in a season with 7, is #6 in yards with 1,041, #2 in yards per game (104.1), #5 (tied) for 100+ yard games (4), and #1 (tied) for 200+ yard games...all set during the 2001 season. Because he only played WR for one season for us, he doesn't rank really high on most career lists, although he does come in at #18 for total receiving yards (1,298), #10 in yards per game (59.0...in large part because he played mostly QB for a season, which counts as games played, even though he didn't play WR in those games), #1 in yards per reception (20.0) and is tied for #1 for 200+ yard games in a career with 2.
Following his Leatherneck career, Jackson played for 4 seasons with the Cleveland Browns, then signed by the Jets, but was released before the regular season began. Since finishing his playing career, he has moved up the ranks with success at coaching WRs, starting here at Western, before moving to Akron, Northern Illinois, NC State, Temple, and is now the Wide Receivers coach for the Tennessee Titans.

Stacy Coleman was another successful WR to wear #7 (he also wore #80 for a season, but apparently I didn't mention him back in the #80 post). He was a First Team All-Conference WR in 2002 and was named to the AP Third Team, FB Gazette Second Team, and Sports Network Third Team that same year. Coleman has the 6th best performance for receiving yards in a game with 215 against Northern Illinois in 2002. He is #4 on the list for receptions in a season with 70, #5 for TDs in a season with 10, #3 for yards in a season with 1,103, #9 in yards per game in a season with 84.8, #1 (tied) for 100+ yard games in a season with 5, and is tied for #3 in 200+ yard games with 1...all in 2002.

James Norris was named to the conference All-Newcomer Team and All-Conference Second Team in 2003 as a return specialist. Then in 2004, he was All-Conference First Team at return specialist and Honorable Mention at wide receiver. He's tied for 5th in 100+ yard games in a season (4 in 2004), lands at #15 on the career receiving yards list (1,358), #2 in career yards per reception (18.4), and #5 (tied) in career 100+ yards games (6). Norris also has the longest punt return in Leatherneck history, with a 95-yard TD return against Eastern Michigan in 2003 and is tied for the 6th longest kick return with a 98-yard TD against Nebraska in '04. He has the 5th most punt return yards in a season (287 in '03), 3rd (tied) most kick returns (31 in '04), and 3rd most kick return yards (789 in '04).

Mike McEachern was a Second Team All-Conference DB in 2008. That season he had 2 blocked kicks, which puts him tied at #6 on the list of most blocked kicks in a season.

Like Norris, Todd Speight was another First Team All-Conference Return Specialist (this time in '09). Speight is the only player in Leatherneck history with a kickoff and punt return for TDs in the same game (vs Stephen F. Austin in '09). That punt return was an 88-yard TD, which is the 2nd longest and the kick return was a 93-yard TD, which is the 10th longest. Norris is also the only player to rack up more than 1k kick return yards in a season (1,047 in 2009). He is #1 in kick returns in a season (50 in 2009) and #1 in kick returns in a career (80). He also is #1 in career kick return yards (1,607).

Josh Hudson wasn't around long (only started for one year), but did get on a few records list in his time here. He is 8th for rushing yards by a QB in a season (138 in 2011), #2 in consecutive completions to start a game (8 against Jacksonville in 2011), and has the 3rd (tied) longest completion with a 92-yard TD pass against Sam Houston State in 2011.

Lance Lenoir, Jr....
...
...
well, if you don't know about Lance, you haven't been paying attention the last few years. I'll go ahead and do a quick rundown though on the most productive receiver in Leatherneck history:
  • Conference All-Newcomer Team in 2013
  • All-Conference First Team (WR) in 2014, Second Team (WR) and Honorable Mention (RS) in 2015, and First Team (WR) in 2016
  • STATS Third Team and HERO Sports Third Team in 2016
  • #1, #2, and #3 for receptions in a season
  • #9, #9, #9, and #9 (yea...tied with himself and two other guys for the #9 spot) for TDs in a season...7 every year
  • #1, #4, and #7 for yards in a season
  • #3, #4, and #7 (tied) for yards per game in a season
  • #1 (tied) and #5 (tied, twice achieved) for 100+ yard games in a season
  • #1 (tied) for 200+ yard games in a season
  • #1 in career receptions (273), career receiving yards (3,796...that's 1,370 more than the #2 guy), consecutive games with a reception (41), 100+ yard games (14...next best is 8), 200+ yard games (tied with two other players with 2 games), and TDs (28)
  • #2 in career yards per game (79.1)
Lance is currently fighting for a WR spot with the Dallas Cowboys and scored his first NFL TD in their second preseason game last weekend.

After missing a week, TBT Trivia is back. We are running short of days and I am having to dig pretty deep here. Way back in the early part of the last century on or about the year of 1907, Macomb was the terminus for a rail line affectionately known as "The Little Road". What western Illinois town was at the other end of The Little Road?

Clue: the answer partially lies within the question.

Huskie, you nailed (make that "spiked") it. Next week, expect a really tough trivia question related to Cookeville, TN which is where I will be.

spked -> spiked. Should have used a picture.

Hey folks, just a bit of a preface to this one. I'm going to be out of town from tomorrow (Friday) morning until Sunday evening and I won't have a computer with me, so I won't really be able to post Saturday's #5 post until Sunday, when I do the #5 and #4 post.

As mentioned before, I was out of town over the weekend, so I'm just now catching up on all the stuff.

Saturday was 5 days until gameday...
We've got two #5's on the roster currently.

Senior Defensive Back Aaron Diggs

Diggs is from Goodyear, AZ, and is, as near as I can tell, the last player of the previous coaching staff's "Arizona connection".

and...

Junior Running Back Steve McShane

Steve rushed for a team-leading 917 yards (83.4 yards per game) last season and 8 TDs. He also was a solid receiving threat (for a RB) catching for 234 yards (21.3 per game) and 1 receiving TD.
