Game Preview

Georgia State vs. Army With 22 starters returning from last year’s bowl-winning squad, Georgia State opens the 2021 season by hosting Army in a nationally-televised game at Center Parc Stadium. Head coach Shawn Elliott’s 2020 Panthers earned their third bowl berth in the last four seasons and defeated Western Kentucky 39-21 in the LendingTree Bowl to finish at 6-4 overall, 4-4 in the Sun Belt Conference. Army, coached by Jeff Monken, is coming off a 9-3 season, capped by a 24-21 loss to West Virginia in the Autozone Liberty Bowl. They are receiving votes in the Associated Press and AFCA Coaches preseason polls. The Panthers enter 2021 on a three-game winning streak after ending 2020 with victories over South Alabama, Georgia Southern and Western Kentucky. GSU has won four of its last five games. Georgia State returns all 11 starters on offense and nine starters on defense as well as its punter and placekicker, and 10 of those returnees were named to the Preseason All-Sun Belt Conference team. Top playmakers on offense are sophomore quarterback Cornelious Brown IV, running backs Destin Coates and Tucker Gregg and a bevy of talented pass catchers, including wideouts Sam Pinckney and Cornelius McCoy and tight end Roger Carter. But the backbone of the offense is an experienced offensive line led by four-time allconference left guard Shamarious Gilmore. That cast will look to pick up where the Panthers left off in 2020, when Georgia State averaged a schoolrecord 33.3 points. GSU returns 97.6 percent of its offensive yardage the 2020 unit that averaged 424.3 yards per game. That includes 100 percent of GSU’s passing yardage, 99.1 percent of its rushing yards and

96.4 percent of its receiving yards. Every player who scored a point returns. Defensively, the Panthers return all-conference performers at each level with Dontae Wilson and Hardrick Willis on the defensive line, Blake Carroll at linebacker and cornerback Quavian White and safety Antavious Lane in the secondary. That quintet helped Georgia State rank No. 7 in FBS with a school-record 35 sacks and No. 8 with 21 turnovers forced. Placekicker Noel Ruiz ranks among the FBS active leaders in career points and field goals. Georgia State and Army are meeting in Atlanta for the second time in three years after the Panthers captured the first meeting 28-21 on Oct. 19, 2019. Quarterback Dan Ellington, now on the GSU coaching staff, hit tight end Aubry Payne with the go-ahead 8yard touchdown pass with 7:41 to play, and the GSU defense made a late stand, sealed by Quavian White’s interception at the 2-yard line with one minute left. The game against Army kicks off the most challenging schedule in program history as the Panthers also face a non-conference games against North Carolina and Auburn on the road and Charlotte at home before Sun Belt Conference play. Georgia State faces seven teams that played in bowl games in 2020, including six foes who won eight or more games. Three GSU opponents are ranked in the Preseason Top 25: North Carolina (No. 10 AP/No. 9 Coaches), Louisiana (No. 23 AP & Coaches) and Coastal Carolina (No. 22 AP/No. 24 Coaches). Auburn (both), Army (both) and App State (Coaches only) are receiving votes. Georgia State is one of just five Group of 5 teams with three preseason ranked opponents on its 2021 schedule.

CENTER PARC STADIUM HOME OF THE GEORGIA STATE PANTHERS

14


CENTER PARC CREDIT UNION STADIUM is the home of Georgia State football. The Panthers took over this iconic property, formerly Centennial Olympic Stadium and then Turner Field and venue for Major League Baseball’s Atlanta Braves, for the 2017 season. The facility was renamed Center Park Credit Union Stadium as part of a 15-year, $21 million agreement between Center Parc Credit Union, a division of Atlanta Postal Credit Union (APCU), and Georgia State Athletics, announced on Aug. 11, 2020. Center Parc Stadium features 25,000 seats for football, a FieldTurf playing surface on “Pete” Petit Field and dramatic views of the Atlanta skyline. The conversion process incorporated the existing seating areas on the north, west and south sides of the stadium with a new grandstand constructed on the east side, formerly the outfield. The Panthers enter their fifth season in this impressive venue, which also houses the Football Operations Suite, completed in 2019. All of the program’s day-to-day operations are at Center Parc Stadium, including weight room, meetings rooms, coaches’ offices, athletic training room and equipment room.

Center Parc Stadium was originally constructed as the 85,000-seat Centennial Olympic Stadium and used for the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games, including the Opening and Closing Ceremonies and the track and field competition. Ground was broken on the stadium on July 10, 1993. Following the Olympic Games, much of the north end of the stadium was removed in the conversion to the 49,000-seat baseball park that served as the home of the Atlanta Braves from 1997 through 2016. The first baseball game at Turner Field was played on April 4, 1997 as the Braves defeated the Chicago Cubs 5-4. The stadium hosted the National League Division Series a total of 11 times (1997–2005, 2010, 2013) and the NL Championship Series four times (1997–1999, 2001), as well as one World Series (1999), one NL Wild Card Game (2012, the first in baseball history), and the 2000 MLB All-Star Game. The Braves played their final game at Turner Field, a 1-0 victory over the Detroit Tigers, on Oct. 2, 2016. In November 2016, the Board of Regents approved Georgia State University’s purchase of 38 acres of the 68-acre site for $22.8 million, and the conversion process began in early 2017. Georgia State opened its new home against Tennessee State before 24,333 fans on Aug. 31, 2017.

Head Coach

SHAWN ELLIOTT 2017 – Present

Highlights of Elliott’s first four years at GSU include the first bowl victory in school history, Georgia State’s first winning season as an FBS program, and school-record seven-win campaigns in both 2017 and 2019.

A coaching veteran who brought 20 years of experience in winning programs, Shawn Elliott was introduced as Georgia State’s third head football coach on Dec. 9, 2016. He came to GSU after highly successful stints at South Carolina, where he served as the co-offensive coordinator, offensive line coach and interim head coach, and Appalachian State, where he coached the offensive line. In 24 seasons as a Division I coach, Elliott has been part of 21 winning seasons, 19 teams that reached the NCAA playoffs or a bowl game, and three consecutive NCAA FCS titles from 2005-07. That success has continued at Georgia State, where Elliott has led the Panthers to bowl games and winning seasons in three of his four years in Atlanta, including the first two bowl victories in program history. Elliott and his staff navigated the unique challenges of 2020 to steer the Panthers to a winning season, capped by a victory in the LendingTree Bowl, marking the first back-to-back winning records and bowl

berths in school history as well as the program’s highest winning percentage at .600. The 2020 Panthers featured another prolific offense that averaged a school-record 33.3 points per game and an opportunistic defense that ranked in the top 10 in the nation in sacks with 35, another school record, and turnovers forced with 21. Along the way, a program-record 14 individuals earned All-Sun Belt Conference honors. Other highlights of Elliott’s first four years at GSU include the first bowl victory in school history, Georgia State’s first winning season as an FBS program, and school-record seven-win campaigns in both 2017 and 2019. The 2019 season began with another major first for the Georgia State program as Elliott’s Panthers earned a dominating 38-30 victory over Tennessee at Neyland Stadium for the school’s first win over a Power 5 opponent. Elliott was named the Dodd Trophy National Coach of the Week, and his Panthers were recognized as the FWAA Reveal Suits National Team of the Week. That is the third time that Elliott has been part of the National Team of the Week; his Appalachian State (Continued on page 19)

team was recognized for its 2007 victory at Michigan and his South Carolina The win over Tennessee launched a record-setting 2019 season as the Panthers won seven games in the regular season for the first time and achieved their best home record with a 5-1 mark. Bolstered by one of the top rushing attacks in the nation, the 2019 team set numerous team and individual records, most notably establishing new season standards for points, touchdowns, rushing yards and total offense. The team earned a berth in the 2019 NOVA Home Loans Arizona Bowl, and 10 Panthers were named to the All-Sun Belt Conference squad. Despite taking over a Georgia State program playing just its eighth season of football in 2017, Elliott not only guided GSU to a bowl game in his first year at the helm, but he led the Panthers to their first bowl victory, 27-17 over Western Kentucky in the AutoNation Cure Bowl. That win gave the program a school-record seven victories in Elliott’s first season. Under Elliott’s watch, the Panthers achieved benchmark performances on both sides of the ball. The 2017 GSU defense set season records for fewest points allowed per game, and fewest rushing yards allowed per game (136.4). The defense also recorded the first shutout in school history. On offense, the Panthers established new marks, since broken, for highest completion percentage (64.2) and fewest interceptions (9) in a season, as well as most total yards in a game (670) and most points vs. an FBS opponent (47). Nine Panthers earned All-Sun Belt honors in 2017. Senior cornerback Chandon Sullivan shined in the classroom and on the field as Georgia State’s first football Academic All-American and the first Panther invited to the Reese’s Senior Bowl. Sullivan, one of three 2017 seniors to sign NFL free agent contracts, is now with the Green Bay Packers. After inheriting a senior-dominated roster for his first season, Elliott’s second campaign proved to be a rebuilding year as the Panthers were forced to play numerous freshmen. Still, there were many positives during the 2018 season. First-year quarterback Dan Ellington passed for more than 2,000 yards, led the team in rushing and set a school record for fewest interceptions. Punter Brandon Wright ranked No. 3 in FBS in punting average and net while setting the Sun Belt record at 48.3 yards per kick. The Ray Guy Award semifinalist is GSU’s first semifinalist for a major college football award. Receiver Penny Hart finished his career ranked fourth in Sun Belt history in receiving yards and

eighth in receptions. He signed a free agent contract with the Indianapolis Colts, as did linebacker Chase Middleton. Hart is now with the Seattle Seahawks. Individual honors in Elliott’s first four seasons include 40 All-Sun Belt Conference honorees, Georgia State’s first two players selected to the Reese’s Senior Bowl, seven former players signed to NFL free agent contracts and a first-round selection in the CFL draft. The accolades extend to the classroom with GSU’s first Academic All-American® as well as five Academic All-District® selections. The Panthers posted a program-record 3.03 GPA in Elliott’s first semester and a 3.0 for the spring 2020 term. Before taking over the Georgia State program, Elliott worked seven seasons (2010-16) at South Carolina under Will Muschamp and Steve Spurrier, highlighted by three consecutive 11-win seasons from 2011-13 during the most successful run in the Gamecocks’ history. In addition to coaching the offensive line, he was the running game coordinator in 2010 and 2011, was elevated to co-offensive coordinator in 2012, and then served as the interim head coach following Spurrier’s retirement midway through the 2015 season. Elliott originally joined the South Carolina staff in 2010 and helped the Gamecocks reach five straight bowl games while coaching some of the most prolific and balanced offenses in school history. The Gamecocks turned in the program’s best offensive season, statistically, in 2013, averaging 34.1 points while rolling up a school-record 452.3 yards per game. South Carolina’s 2014 unit scored nearly 33 points per game while averaging over 440 yards of offense as All-America and All-Southeastern Conference offensive guard A.J. Cann paved the way. In 2010, Elliott’s first season in Columbia, his offensive line blocked for record-setting running back Marcus Lattimore, the National Freshman of the Year. In addition to Cann, a third-round draft pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2015, Elliott developed future NFL linemen Corey Robinson, Ronald Patrick, Brandon Shell, T.J. Johnson and Rokevious Watkins. Before going to South Carolina in 2010, Elliott coached his entire career at Appalachian State, his alma mater. In 13 seasons there, he was an integral part of App State’s three consecutive NCAA titles from 2005-07 as well as the Mountaineers’ historic upset at Michigan in 2007. Beginning in 1997, he worked two seasons as a defensive assistant (1997-98) and then two seasons as the tight ends coach (1999-00) before taking over the offensive line in 2001. In nine seasons as the Mountaineers’ offensive line coach, Elliott’s players earned All-America distinction 20

on 12 occasions, including four different linemen who received first-team All-America accolades. He also coached All-American and future NFL tight end Daniel Wilcox in 2000. In 2003, offensive lineman Wayne Smith was the first pick in the Canadian Football League Draft. From 2005-07, Elliott coached threeconsecutive Southern Conference Jacobs Blocking Trophy recipients. Elliott helped lead the Mountaineers to 10 NCAA playoff berths in 13 seasons with two trips to the national semifinals and three appearances in the quarterfinals in addition to the three championships. Elliott was one of three App State coaches to earn the NCAA’s Award of Valor for their efforts in rescuing two individuals from an automobile accident in 2000. The two head coaches under whom Elliott spent the bulk of his time as an assistant coach, Spurrier at South Carolina and Jerry Moore at Appalachian State, are both enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame. Elliott was the first player in Mountaineer annals to appear in the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs four separate seasons. He was a four-year letterwinner, helping the Mountaineers to two Southern Conference titles and a combined record of 36-16. He served as a co-captain of the 1995 Appalachian State squad that finished 12-1 while earning all-league distinction as a defensive end. A native of Camden, S.C., Elliott earned his bachelor’s degree from Appalachian State in 1996. He is married to the former Summer Scruggs, also an App State grad and a standout tennis player for the Mountaineers, and the couple has two children, Maddyn and Max.

Director of Athletics

CHARLIE COBB Charlie Cobb enters his eighth year at the helm of the Georgia State Department of Athletics and 17th as a Division I athletics director, leading a transformation for the program throughout campus and the city of Atlanta. Cobb was hired in August of 2014 to build a winning program “the right way” per former President Mark Becker. Since his hire, multiple new facilities have opened, while student-athletes maintained above a 3.0 Grade Point Average for the 13th-straight year, including a record 3.40 GPA in spring 2020. Georgia State also received the Sun Belt's Institutional Graduation Award twice under his tenure. Cobb currently serves on the NCAA D1 Council and was also recently appointed to the College Football Playoff (CFP) Management Committee. Among Cobb’s biggest projects has been participating in the acquisition, purchase, and re-purposing of Turner Field, transforming the former Major League Baseball venue into the home of Georgia State football, now named Center Parc Credit Union Stadium in recognition of the $21 million, 15–year naming rights agreement reached in 2020. Phase One of the project was completed in August 2017 and included new east side seating and an artificial surface field for the football team. Phase Two moved all football operations to the stadium in 2019 as part of a $300 million plan to transform the 68-acre site. Future construction plans include the completion of an ‘Athletics Neighborhood’ as part of the development, including a new Convocation Center set to open in August 2022, baseball stadium, softball stadium, soccer facility (opening in August 2021), and track and field venue. The Bobby Jones Golf Practice Facility also opened in 2019. On the field, the Panthers have garnered unprecedented success as football earned its first-ever appearance in a bowl game in 2015 and two years later winning the AutoNation Cure Bowl in Orlando. A third bowl game appearance in five years came in 2019, followed by a fourth with a win in the 2020 LendingTree Bowl. Men's basketball pulled off a shocking upset in the NCAA tournament in 2015 and returned again in 2018 and 2019. Since returning to the Sun Belt in 2013, men's basketball has won more 50

games than any other program in the league. Before returning to Atlanta, Cobb spent nine years as the Director of Athletics at Appalachian State. Previously he worked for six years honing his business acumen with the Atlanta Sports Council, the ChickFil-A Peach Bowl, and the Georgia Dome, before returning to his alma mater, NC State. Through the implementation of the department's strategic plan, Cobb is focused on building a Culture of Success at Georgia State based on five themes: Academic Achievement, Competitive Greatness, Ethical Behavior, Social Responsibility, and Community Engagement. Those ideals helped him build and maintain a high-performing program at App State. The Mountaineers won three consecutive Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) national championships, the first three-peat in FCS history. They also brought home eight consecutive Commissioner's Cup championships (top men's sports program in the Southern Conference) and four Germann Cup championships (top women's program). Together, they earned the men's and women's awards in the same academic year four times. At App State, Cobb helped create $50 million in facilities improvements as the Mountaineers' fundraising efforts that reached all-time highs, and surpassed the $3 million mark. The jewel of the projects was the seven-story Appalachian Athletics Center and the campaign also produced new homes for Mountaineer baseball, softball, and soccer, as well as a new indoor practice facility. The 53-year-old Cobb was a four-year letterwinner as a football player at NC State. He graduated with honors with a bachelor's degree in business administration in 1990 and earned a master's degree in sports administration from Ohio in 1992. As a senior center, he was named to the All-ACC second team and was an All-ACC academic selection. He was awarded the prestigious Atlantic Coast Conference's Jim Tatum Award, which recognizes the senior football player with the highest GPA. Cobb and his wife, Lindsay, have a son and daughter, 24-year-old Harrison, a recent graduate of Hampden-Sydney College who is now obtaining a Masters in Sport Administration at Ohio University, and 20-year-old Branan, who attends Centre College. Lindsay Cobb was an All-ACC goalkeeper for the NC State women's soccer team from 1987-90 and is the current head soccer coach at Whitefield Academy.

Panther Band

Since its debut in 2010, the GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY PANTHER BAND has become one of the most decorated marching bands in the Southeast.

The Georgia State Panther Band is in its twelfth year of existence and serves as an integral part of campus life. Referred to as “the Sound of Downtown,” the Panther Band performs a pre-game show at all home games, and halftime shows at games they attend. In addition to football games, the band performs at university and community events, as well as high school marching band exhibitions. The Georgia State University Panther Band has a distinguished history of performance. Founded in 2010 along with the University’s football team, the Panther Band has quickly made a name for itself performing for live, televised, and motion picture audiences. Rated by its peers as one of the best college marching bands in the country, the Panther Band was ranked among the top-ten bands in the nation by the College Band Directors National Association in 2013 and the top-five among the Southern Division in 2012, 2016 and 2020. In 2014, the band entertained millions along the streets of New York and on television as it participated in the 88th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. In 2013, the Panther Band proudly marched through Washington, D.C. playing the music of James Brown during the inauguration of President Barack Obama. In 2019, the Panther Band performed for over 100 million viewers as part of the Super Bowl LIII Pepsi Halftime Show. The Panther Band accepted an invitation to perform in the 2022 52

Pasadena Tournament of Roses parade. The Panther Band has proven itself as a band that truly entertains. The Panther Band is under the direction of Chester B. Phillips, Georgia State’s director of athletic bands, and T. Devin Reid, assistant director of bands. To learn more about the Panther Band visit pantherband.gsu.edu.

NCAA Compliance

The Georgia State University Department of Athletics is committed and obligated to the principle of institutional control in operating its athletics program in a manner that is consistent with the letter and spirit of NCAA, Sun Belt Conference, and Georgia State University rules and regulations.

MISSION STATEMENT The Georgia State University Athletics Compliance Office provides a comprehensive compliance and monitoring program that promotes knowledge of and adherence to NCAA, Sun Belt Conference and institutional rules and regulations among members of the Department of Athletics, Georgia State University personnel and members of the athletics community, thereby reducing infractions.

PROSPECTIVE STUDENT-ATHLETE A prospective student-athlete is a person who has started classes for the ninth (9th) grade. In addition, a student-athlete who has not started classes for the ninth grade becomes a prospective student-athlete if the institution provides such an individual (or the individual’s relatives or friends) any financial assistance or other benefits that the institution does not provide to prospective students generally.

• Money for, or a guarantee of, bail or bond; • Employment of a student-athlete at a rate higher than the wages paid for similar work; and/or • Payment to a student-athlete for work not performed.
