• First year head coach Frank Wilson took over the helm on January 16, 2020 to become McNeese’s 17th head coach in school history, got his first win as the Cowboy head coach in the Feb. 13, thrilling 40-37 double-ot win against Tarleton State. • It had been 394 days since his hiring when the Cowboys took the field.

PANDEMIC, HURRICANES, WINTER STORM NOT STANDING IN COWBOYS’ WAY

• Prior to the Feb. 13 opener at Tarleton State, McNeese’s last game of competition was back on Nov. 23, 2019 against Lamar, and due to the global pandemic and two major hurricanes - Laura and Delta - the Cowboys did not play any games during the fall of 2020. In fact, unlike every other FCS team playing this spring who had a fall offseason program, McNeese was without any kind of weight or conditioning program and as spread out around the region due to no housing in Lake Charles as a result of the extensive hurricane damage. • After the hurricanes, McNeese was not able to return to Lake Charles as a team until mid-November 2020 and took up residence at a local hotel for the next 6080 days. • Facilities on campus were too damaged to conduct any kind of training so the Cowboys held weight training and conditioning drills at a local high school until the team was able to return to its facility the second week of January. • Damage to McNeese State University exceeds $200 million with much of that to the athletic facilities. • Cowboy Stadium had to have its 3-year old turf replaced and was 3-feet underwather due to the rains of Hurricane Delta... the three-level press box is totaled and will have to be replaced... most of the football team and position meeting rooms were heavily damaged, forcing the Cowboys to use the Endzone Club Room on the second level of the field house as a make-shift team meeting room. • Last week, the off week, a winter storm caused water outages so the Cowboys were not able to get any practice time in.

What They’re Saying About Coach Wilson “Frank is a great Louisiana man. He was one of the best assistant coaches in LSU history and he will do a great job for McNeese.” – Ed Orgeron, LSU head coach. “Coach Frank Wilson changed my life. He gave a young kid from New Orleans a chance to compete and learn on a higher level. He opened the doors for so many of us Louisiana athletes and I’m just happy to see him making strides and becoming all that he can be. He is a true inspiration.” – Tyrann Mathieu, former LSU defensive back and Heisman Trophy finalist and currently with the Kansas City Chiefs. “Be a pro. Coach Wilson made it a real possibility not with just the amount of work we put in, but with the culture he brought to the program. He gave us respect and responsibility and we thrived. I’m happy to see Coach Wilson help others turn dreams into reality.” – Marcus Davenport, former UTSA player and first round draft pick by the New Orleans Saints. “One of the most loving and caring coaches outside of football. The love I have for him will last a lifetime. Anyone that gets him as a coach will love him not as a coach but also as a father figure. Also he’s a God fearing man.” – Leonard Fournette, former LSU running back and current running back for the Super Bowl Champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. “Coaches and players gravitate to Frank Wilson. He was a part of my staff at Tennessee and I can tell you firsthand that he develops players as well as anyone in college football. People talk about how great of a recruiter he is, but he is just as strong of a leader.” – Lane Kiffen, Ole Miss head coach who hired Frank Wilson at Tennessee. “I had the honor to play for and be recruited by a man who was so unselfish in his work and in his life that people were drawn to his efforts and commitment, which helped them become a man foremost and then a player. I speak firsthand for how he’s stayed in contact with players even after they have left his reach. They don’t make many like him.” – Jarvis Landry, Cleveland Browns wide receiver.
