TROY – After recruiting season, spring practice, summer workouts and preseason camp, it feels like the end of the buildup to the Troy Trojans season opener.
More importantly, it’s the beginning of the Chip Lindsey era. The Trojans open at home against Campbell with a 5 p.m. kickoff Saturday at Veterans Memorial Stadium.
“It’s really exciting to me, because Troy is the first place that I was able to be a college football coach under coach (Larry) Blakeney,” Lindsey said at his Tuesday press conference.
He was quarterbacks coach for Blakeney in the 2010 season. It will be his debut as a college head coach.
