Former Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator and assistant coach Hue Jackson, who recently completed his first season as Tennessee State's offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, was named the Grambling State Tigers' new head coach Friday morning.
"I think the landscape is changing. Eddie George (Tennessee State) and Deion Sanders (Jackson State) are doing great jobs in their respective places," Jackson said Friday. "We want to do the same here and do it even better."
The Southwestern Athletic Conference school fired Broderick Fobbs last month after eight seasons as head coach. The Tigers finished the 2021 season 3-7 overall, 2-5 in the SWAC.
