Chad Germany to be Jackson State offensive coordinator

JACKSON, Mississippi -- It appears Tony Hughes has found the coach who will guide Jackson State's offense next fall.

Sources close to the situation have confirmed that former Southern co-offensive coordinator Chad Germany will be the Tigers' offensive coordinator.

Germany, who began coaching at Southern in 2011, was also the Jaguars' quarterback coach and recruiting coordinator. He resigned from his post last month to pursue other opportunities, according to The Advocate in Baton Rouge.

The Jaguars' offense finished fourth in the SWAC in total and scoring offense this past season. Southern averaged 34.6 points per game and scored 50 in a 19-point win against JSU.

The Tigers' offense ranked fifth in the SWAC in total offense and seventh in scoring offense at 22.9 points per game. Germany will be tasked with reviving a rushing offense that averaged just 101.1 yards per game and instituting some balance into JSU's offensive attack.
