Eddie George Named Bowling Green's New Head Football Coach

The former NFL star and Tennessee State coach takes on a five-year contract to lead the Falcons in the Mid-American Conference.

Eddie George, a Heisman Trophy winner and four-time NFL Pro Bowler, has agreed to a five-year deal to become Bowling Green's head football coach.
George leaves Tennessee State after four seasons, where he led the Tigers to a conference title, an FCS playoff berth, and a 24-22 overall record.
He replaces Scot Loeffler, who departed after six seasons at Bowling Green to become the quarterbacks coach for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Bowling Green officials highlighted George's leadership, student-athlete development, and potential to elevate the program in the evolving college sports landscape.
This marks a return to Ohio for George, who starred at Ohio State, winning the 1995 Heisman Trophy and later becoming the Tennessee Titans' all-time leading rusher.
