ULM Warhawks

"It was such an honor to serve on the Board the first time and for my peers to vote me back on now that I am a head coach again is extremely humbling," Berry said. "It is a privilege to sit on this Board and represent football coaches across the country."

The Board 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 named ULM's 14^th head coach on Dec. 18, 2009, after three seasons as the offensive coordinator at UNLV. A 27-year coaching veteran, Berry was ULM's offensive coordinator from 2004-05 and has coaching stops at Miami, East Carolina, Mississippi State, Oklahoma State, Tulsa and Tennessee. Under his guidance the Warhawks won the 2005 Sun Belt Conference championship and quarterback Steven Jyles was named Sun Belt Player of the Year.

Returning members of the AFCA Board of Trustees include incoming president Larry Kehres of Mount Union College, first vice-president Rob Ash of Montana State University, second vice-president Tim Murphy of Harvard University and third vice-president Rich Rodriguez of the University of Michigan.
