LYNCHBURG, Virginia -- Virginia University of Lynchburg has named a new football coach.VUL President Ralph Reavis appointed Luther Palmer head coach on Wednesday, Larry Toombs, spokesman for the college, said. Until Wednesday, Palmer was the defensive coordinator for the Dragons, who are 1-1 in conference play following Saturday’s 58-20 victory over Concordia College Alabama.
Contacted Wednesday night for comment on the new position, Palmer said he didn’t “know anything about that.”
Palmer played tight end for Willard Bailey — who has been with the program as head coach since it began in 2011 and on Wednesday was identified on the school’s website as head football coach and athletic director — when Bailey was head football coach at Virginia Union University.
Contacted Wednesday, Bailey said school officials have not notified him of staffing changes.
Three years ago, Bailey said Reavis asked him to restart the school’s athletic program — football specifically.
