Bowling Green hires Southern Utah head coach Todd Simon to same position

Bowling Green moved quickly to find a new head coach after cutting ties with Michael Huger, announcing the hiring of Southern Utah’s Todd Simon on Wednesday morning.

Simon holds an overall record of 127-115 in eight seasons as a collegiate head coach, with stops at UNLV as an interim coach and at Southern Utah. Simon was recently named the Jim Phelen National Coach of the Year and Big Sky Conference Coach of the Year in 2021, and was a finalist for the 2023 Skip Prosser Man of the Year Award.

“The BGSU family is excited to welcome Coach Todd Simon, his wife, Kati and his family to our community,” Derek van der Merwe said via press release.
