MORGANTOWN, W. Va. — Tony Gibson’s second tenure at West Virginia is coming to an end.
Athletic director Shane Lyons said the veteran defensive coordinator, who is being replaced by former Troy defensive coordinator Vic Koenning, will not remain with the program. Gibson interviewed for the head coaching position which ultimately went to Neal Brown.
“Tony and I have had a lot of phone conversations and I’ll help him in any way,” Lyons said. “Tony has done a great job for this university and I wish him and his family the best.”
Lyons refuted an internet report that indicated Gibson would move to an administrative position at West Virginia.
