Eubanks Joins Football Staff as Safeties Coach

ATLANTA -- Georgia State head coach Shawn Elliott has completed his 2021 coaching staff with the hiring of Darius Eubanks as safeties coach.

In addition, Elliott announced that Josh Stepp, the Panthers' tight ends coach since 2017, has been named recruiting coordinator; second-year cornerbacks coach Cory Peoples has been elevated to defensive passing game coordinator; and second-year assistant coach Dan Ellington will be the running backs coach.

A former NFL outside linebacker, Eubanks spent the last three seasons on the defensive staff at Samford but comes to Georgia State from Western Carolina, where he was hired this spring as co-defensive coordinator and safeties coach by first-year head coach Kerwin Bell.
