Bethune-Cookman moving fast to replace football coach Brian Jenkins

DAYTONA BEACH, Florida -- The search five years ago that led to Bethune-Cookman’s hiring of Brian Jenkins took about a month.

The process to hire his successor should take just a few days, B-CU athletic director Lynn Thompson said.

While Jenkins was being introduced as the new head football coach at Alabama State on Wednesday afternoon, Thompson was already paring down his possibilities to replace the highly successful coach to three candidates, “plus a wild card.”

Thompson said a new coach could be announced as early as Friday.
