Per multiple media outlets, in the next 24 hours University of Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles will announce South Carolina’s Assistant Head Coach & Defensive Coordinator Ellis Johnson as the next Head Football Coach in Hattiesburg, MS. Johnson replaces Larry Fedora, who accepted the North Carolina job earlier this month. Johnson and his wife toured the USM facilities this afternoon following the Gamecocks' first of two-a-day practices leading up to January 2nd Capital One Bowl.
Not sure if Johnson will stay on with the team through the bowl game or not? Also no significant names as possible replacements to replace Ellis Johnson.
From everyone in Gamecocks nation congratulations to Coach Ellis Johnson on this significant opportunity in his life. I wish him and his family much success in Hattiesburg and Conference-USA.
Go Gamecocks!
