New Toledo head coach Jason Candle finalizes coaching staff for 2016 season

After former Toledo head football coach Matt Campbell’s departure to Iowa State University, former associate head coach and offensive coordinator Jason Candle was named the new head coach in December.

Since he was named head coach, Candle finalized his coaching staff, bringing in seven new assistant coaches and returning two previous staff.

The two returning coaches are the co-offensive coordinators, running backs coach Anthony Johnson and receivers coach Derek Sage.

Coming from Kent State, Brian George will serve as the Rocket’s new defensive coordinator and defensive line coach. George served as the Golden Flash’s assistant and defensive coordinator from 2011-2015.
