James Emerson Carter (November 12, 1911 – May 9, 2012)[1] was an American football and basketball coach.
Although he had to share football responsibilities with his new basketball duties, Carter quickly moved to expand the Flyers' profile.
Carter led the Flyers to winning records in his third and fourth seasons, but the two year World War II suspension between 1943 and 1945 derailed this progress.
Following consecutive 3–13 and 4–17 seasons, the university decided to hire Tom Blackburn as its full-time basketball coach in 1947.
