Brent Jones was announced as the Athletics Director (AD) for Troy University filling the role left vacant after Jeremy McClain’s departure to the University of Southern Mississippi

“[Jones] has a record of leadership success at the Division One level, particularly in revenue generation. He was an All-American student-athlete, and he knows Troy University,” Chancellor Jack Hawkins said.

“I am proud to appoint [Jones] as the tenth AD in our history.”

Jones, who came to Troy two years ago, had been serving as Deputy Director of Athletics for External Operations for the past two years.
