In 1883 in order to enhance the town's status, he founded Florida's first private college, DeLand Academy. In 1885 a freeze destroyed the orange crop, putting DeLand in financial trouble. He left for home and entrusted the school to friend and town trustee John B. Stetson, the inventory of the cowboy hat. In 1889 the school was renamed John B. Stetson University due to all the financial support from Stetson and were named the Hatters.

It's worth noting that Stetson (starts 4 guards) and Northwestern don't start what you'd consider a traditional center. Thus, if you're looking for a reason to pull the trigger on starting Roby/Copeland this is it and will be the rational you'd hear him give Kent Pavelka about it. Players to watch: Divine Myles Undersized 5'11" SG Myles is currently on pace to become Stetson's all-time leading scorer and the senior does it by using his quickness to drive to the hoop as the majority of his shots come in the paint. He's a better 3pt shooter than his 33% leads on. The Skinny Stetson is a fast paced team that starts 5 seniors so while they're not a particularly good team they're slightly dangerous in the sense they could make a run at a team on a poor shooting night. While they have actually won 4 road games this year, they're just not good and haven't beaten anyone good in years. You'll see some inside scoring from freshman big man Abayomi Iyiola and starting point guard Angel Rivera will do some damage but really it's all about containing Divine Myles and Evan Taylor should be up for the task. If nothing else this should be an entertaining game to watch as the Hatters get after it on offense. The Huskers break will be limited against this guard oriented team that doesn't turn the ball over and gets back on defense after a shot goes up. Expect this one to be over by half time and the sounds of Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song to indicate that Thorir is checking into a decided game.
