Former NFL All-Pro RB Eddie George Appointed Head Coach by Bowling Green: Source
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter


Eddie George, the former NFL All-Pro and current head coach at Tennessee State, is set to embark on a new journey as the head coach of Bowling Green. This exciting update was shared by a source with The Athletic on Sunday.

Bowling Green plans to publicly announce the news later on Sunday, according to a source from the school.

George, who famously clinched the Heisman Trophy in 1995 while playing for Ohio State, steps in to lead the Mid-American Conference (MAC) team. He takes over following Scot Loeffler’s departure to an assistant coaching role with the Philadelphia Eagles.

The news first broke through a report by The Toledo Blade.

Bruce Feldman also tweeted about George’s move: “SOURCE: Tennessee State head coach Eddie George, the 51-year-old Ohio State legend, has accepted the head coaching job at Bowling Green. The hire is expected to be made official later this afternoon. Under George, TSU last season won its first conference championship since 1999.…”

During his time at Tennessee State, George chalked up a 24-22 record over four seasons. Last year was particularly noteworthy as he led the team to a 9-4 finish and a spot in the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs, earning the title of Big South-OVC Coach of the Year. In January, George was considered for the Chicago Bears head coaching position, but ultimately, Ben Johnson, the former Detroit Lions offensive coordinator, was chosen.

George’s tenure at TSU began a year after Deion Sanders took over at Jackson State, setting off a wave of former NFL players taking coaching roles at HBCUs. This year, Norfolk State brought on Michael Vick, and DeSean Jackson joined Delaware State.

With his new role, George becomes the third Black HBCU head coach to land a position in the Football Bowl Subdivision, following in the footsteps of Willie Jeffries in 1979 and Sanders in 2023.

The Falcons are coming off three straight bowl game appearances and posted a commendable 6-2 record in MAC play in 2024. However, since 2015, they haven’t managed to surpass the seven-win mark in any season. The team’s roster is undergoing a rebuild, particularly after the departure of key players like All-American tight end Harold Fannin Jr.

On the NFL stage, George shined brightly, earning four Pro Bowl selections with the Houston Oilers/Tennessee Titans. His remarkable career led to the retirement of his No. 27 jersey by the Titans in 2019, and he was named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year back in 1996.
