COACHING STAFF new single-season records for completions (244) and plays (554). ULM landed six players on the All-Sun Belt team following the 2011 campaign, including first-team selections Ken Dorsey and Darius Prelow. In his first season in charge of the program, Berry led a team that saw 17 freshmen and sophomores start games and featured 23 freshmen and sophomores on the offensive and defensive depth chart. Berry’s Warhawks faced one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the nation; ULM faced Auburn (BCS National Champion), Arkansas (Sugar Bowl) and LSU (Cotton Bowl). ULM fell just short in its bid for the program’s first-ever bowl appearance. One of nine head coaches in the NCAA to also coach an individual position, Berry made the difficult decision to give the reigns of the offense to redshirt freshman Kolton Browning. The decision paid off. Under Berry’s guidance, Browning was named the Louisiana Freshman of the Year in addition to earning Freshman All-America honors from College Football News. Browning finished third in the NCAA among all freshmen after averaging 247.4 yards of total offense per game in addition to tying the ULM records for touchdown passes in a game (5) and consecutive 200-yard passing games (8). Browning led the Sun Belt with a 61.9 completion percentage and tallied the second most yards of total offense in ULM history (2,937). Defensive end Ken Dorsey, safety Darius Prelow, wide receiver Luther Ambrose, linebacker Cameron Blakes and Browning were all named All-Sun Belt in Berry’s first season. Berry’s first season at the helm of the Warhawks included a 28-14 victory over Troy. The Warhawks held the Trojans to their lowest offensive output in a Sun Belt game since 2006 as they snapped the Trojans 13-game Sun Belt win streak. He was reappointed to the American Football Coaches Association Board of Trustees in 2010 and he will serve as the third vice president during the 2013 season. The Board, which consists of 18 head coaches, formulates policy and provides direction for the organization, which was founded in 1922 by Amos Alonzo Stagg, John Heisman and others. The AFCA has more than 11,000 members from all levels of the profession. Berry was ULM’s offensive coordinator from 2004-05, where he helped guide the Warhawks to the 2005 Sun Belt Conference Championship and quarterback Steven Jyles to Sun Belt Player of the Year and Offensive Player of the Year honors. Berry has diligently displayed a “championship” mentality and approach he has infused into his players, staff, administrators and supporters, all with an eye for competing for a Sun Belt Conference championship as soon as possible.
