Niners hire Will Healy as 49ers head coach
Mike Hill and Charlotte Athletics have officially hired their new head football coach in Will Healy.
“When we set out to hire a coach, our goal was to find someone who will energize and transform the 49ers into a championship program. Will is that man. Across the country he is recognized as one of the top up-and-coming coaches in the nation,” said Hill. “His name came up time and again throughout our search as someone who is a relentless, proven recruiter who has seen remarkable success.”
Healy, National FCS Coach of the Year, will become the second youngest head coach in the FBS at 33-years old. Healy spent the last three years as head coach of the Austin Peay Governors in Tennessee.
