William Frizzelle is the defensive backs coach and special teams coordinator for the Falcons.

This is his second stint on the Falcons’ coaching staff. He was the special teams coordinator for 11 seasons and also coached tight ends and

defensive backs.

Frizzelle last coached for the Falcons in 2013, when they tied for sixth in Division II nationally and led the CIAA in blocked kicks with eight. In 2012, Frizzelle guided Tyron Laughinghouse to the top spot in the NCAA Division II rankings in yards per kick return (40.14) which propelled Laughinghouse to All-America honors.

Before turning pro, Frizzelle was an All-CIAA defensive back at North Carolina Central from 1980-1983. He still ranks among the school’s interception leaders with 10. A Greenville, N.C., native, Frizzelle graduated from N.C. Central with a B.S. degree in Political Science.

Assistant Coaches

ARUN GOMEZDEFENSIVE COORDINATOR

WILLIAM FRIZZELLEDEFENSIVE BACKS/SPECIAL TEAMS COORDINATOR

Arun Gomez enters his second season as an assistant coach and fi rst as defensive coordinator at Saint Augustine’s University. He also is the strength and conditioning coordinator.

In 2015, Gomez was the defensive line coach, video coordinator and strength and

conditioning coordinator on the team.

Gomez is a former football scholar-athlete at Saint Augustine’s University who graduated from his alma mater in 2013 with a human performance and wellness degree. He was an offensive lineman for the Falcons from 2008 to 2010.

KEVIN JONESLINEBACKERS COACH

Former great Kevin Jones returns to Saint Augustine’s University for his second stint on the football coaching staff. Jones will coach the linebackers.

During his fi rst stint from 2011 to 2013, Jones was the safeties coach. Jones was a tackling machine at

outside and inside linebacker for the Falcons from 2003 to 2006. The South Hill, Va., native was the 2006 CIAA defensive player of the year and still holds the single-game (21) modern-day school record for total tackles. A Daktronics and Associated Press Division II All-American in 2006, Jones ranks second (363) on the SAU season and career list for total tackles in the modern era. Jones played professionally for the Washington Redskins of the NFL and the Maryland Maniacs of the Indoor Football League before entering the coaching ranks.


2016 Season OutlookSaint Augustine’s University enters the 2016 football season with much optimism.

Head Coach Tim Chavous expects over 90 student-athletes including 28 returnees at practice during the preseason. He says the Falcons have the talent to turn around a program which won four games in two seasons.

Top returners on offense are wide receiver/returner Michael Allen, fullback Justin Shaw, quarterback D.J. Johnson, quarterback Julius Murphy, linemen Donald Brinkley and Jaron Rice, and placekicker/punter Sean Smith.

Allen is the team’s returning receptions leader while Shaw, Brinkley and Rice are part of a veteran group of blockers who opened lanes for former standout Roderick Davenport II, who became the University’s career leading rusher in the modern era last season. Johnson and Murphy both started in 2015. Smith showed promise as a kicker during his freshman season.

Key defensive stalwarts are defensive back Darius Cole, defensive ends Darius Goodman and Chris Roberts, defensive lineman Chasz Cosby and linebackers Trey King and Terry Warren.

Cole led the Falcons and ranked among the CIAA leaders in interceptions (5) as a freshman. He is one of three student-athletes in the modern era to intercept fi ve passes in a season. Goodman has led the Falcons in tackles for loss and sacks in his two years on the squad. Chavous is anticipating a breakout season from Roberts, who is moving back to defensive end in the 4-3 defense after

playing linebacker in the 3-4 last season. Roberts has 24.5 tackles for loss and 12.5 sacks combined in his previous two seasons.

Cosby followed up an All-CIAA rookie season with a solid sophomore campaign. He tied for second on the team in tackles.

Linebackers King and Warren excelled in their fi rst season playing heavy minutes. King led the team and ranked among the CIAA leaders in sacks, and Warren was the Falcons’ leading tacker. Coach Chavous also expects strong safety Miguel Marshall to make an immediate impact on defense after sitting out last year.

The Falcons open the regular season with a challenging non-conference schedule including road games against FCS Division I foes North Carolina A&T State (Sept. 3) and North Carolina Central (Sept. 17). Sandwiched between those games is a home encounter against perennial Division II power Carson-Newman (Sept. 10).

The contests should prepare the Falcons for the conference opponents. The Falcons host Lincoln (Pa.) on Sept. 24, Fayetteville State for Homecoming on Oct. 22 and crosstown rival Shaw in the regular-season fi nale on Nov. 5.

The Falcons are on the road for a three-game stretch against Virginia Union (Oct. 1), Livingstone (Oct. 8) and Winston-Salem State (Oct. 15). They also visit Johnson C. Smith on Oct. 29. In all, the Falcons have four home games and six road contests.

DEMIUS FRAZIER - DEFENSIVE ASSISTANT/RECRUITING

Demius Frazier returns to Saint Augustine’s University as a defensive assistant and recruiting coordinator.

Frazier was on the Falcons’ staff as linebackers coach from 2007 to 2013 after a stellar football career at Saint Augustine’s University. In 2013, Frazier helped guide Chaz Robinson to CIAA co-defensive

player of the year, all-region and All-America honors.

As a student-athlete, Frazier was part of a talented linebacking corps on the No. 2 nationally-ranked defense in NCAA Division II in 2006.

The Opelika, Ala., native was the team’s sixth leading tackler that year with 46 total tackles including 11 tackles for loss which tied for third-best on the squad. He also collected one sack and one pass interception.

In 2005, Frazier was an All-CIAA selection after recording 33 total tackles including 12 tackles for loss and 3.5 quarterback sacks. He also recovered a fumble and forced one fumble. He played a key role on the No. 4 nationally-ranked defense in Division II.

His hobbies are watching movies, playing drums and traveling.
