On Sunday afternoon, after a Sun Belt Conference Championship victory less than 24 hours earlier, Tony Gibson was named the 32nd head coach of Marshall Football, and former head coach Charles Huff was also named the new leader of the Southern Miss Golden Eagles.
During the 2024 season, Gibson led the North Carolina State Wolfpack’s defensive squad as the defensive coordinator. Gibson spent six seasons with the Wolfpack.
“Finding the right person to lead the Thundering Herd Football program is one of the most important decisions we will make in Marshall Athletics,” said Athletic Director Christian Spears.
