Coming off the shock retirement of coaching legend Frank Solich, the Ohio Bobcats announced the hiring of assistant head coach Tim Albin, effective immediately, on Wednesday morning.
Albin, who has been a part of Solich’s coaching staffs in some capacity dating back to 2000, was formally introduced to media on Friday afternoon.
“It is truly an honor to lead the Ohio University football program and I want to express my gratitude to President [Hugh] Sherman and Director of Athletics Julie Cromer for their belief in me,” Albin said via Thursday’s press release. “I am forever indebted to Coach Solich for all that he has offered me and taught me through the years, and I know he will always be part of our program.
