250 football games and counting: Bryan Johnston plays key role in Georgia Southern Athletic Department

“My wife jokes that I’m like a doctor that I’m always on call,” Bryan Johnston said. “We’re living in a 24 hour news cycle now that it doesn’t matter if it happens at 2 p.m. or 2 a.m...But, I love my job.”

As Associate Athletic Director for Public Relations and Communications at Georgia Southern, Johnston has seen it all. He worked with then redshirt-freshman quarterback Michael Vick in 2000 during his time at Virginia Tech and got to experience the BCS National Championship Game. He was in Statesboro when GS transitioned to the FBS and when the school won their very first bowl appearance in the GoDaddy Bowl in 2015.
