| New Head Coach Trent Miles |
Georgia State has hired Trent Miles the current head
coach of Indiana State to be the next head coach of their growing football
program as they prepare to enter into the Sun Belt Conference next year.
Coach Bill Curry announced his retirement this past
summer. Curry is the first head coach of the Georgia State Panthers; he has
also coached at Alabama, Kentucky and Georgia Tech.
Miles, a former assistant at Stanford, Notre Dame and
Washington, led Indiana State to a 7-4 record this year, his third consecutive
winning season at the school.
Georgia State athletic director Cheryl Levick says Miles is
a "program builder." The announcement is suppose to come on Monday
with a press conference. The pay and contract has not been released, but is
expected to be around $400-$500,000.
