BOWLING GREEN — On Wednesday, Bowling Green announced the hiring of new football head coach Scot Loeffler. The 44-year-old Loeffler will become a head coach for the first time, but he is no stranger in college coaching circles.
A look at the coach’s pathway to Bowling Green:
Michigan (1993-99): Loeffler, an Ohio native, originally went to Michigan as a player. The left-handed quarterback enrolled at UM under former coach Gary Moeller but had his career cut short by a shoulder injury.
After the injury, former Wolverines coach Lloyd Carr — who took over in 1995 — made Loeffler a student assistant for two years, then a graduate assistant for two more.
