Eddie George Named Head Coach at Bowling Green State

News summary

Eddie George, the former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL star, has been named the head football coach at Bowling Green State University, thanks in part to a nudge from Urban Meyer. During his introductory press conference, George shared how a drive through Bowling Green, Kentucky, coincided with a text from Meyer asking if he would be interested in the position. George, who previously coached at Tennessee State, expressed his excitement about leading the Falcons and emphasized his commitment to a fast, physical, and disciplined style of play. Bowling Green's athletic director, Derek van der Merwe, noted that Meyer's endorsement was pivotal in the hiring process, while George aims to elevate the program following a lackluster previous season. The Falcons' first game under George is set for August 28 against Lafayette. George's return to coaching has reignited hope for the football program's future success.
