Eddie George received a grand welcome after being appointed as Bowling Green's new football coach on Monday. The College Football Hall of Fame running back becomes the 21st head coach in Falcons history, succeeding Scot Loeffler, who left the program last month to become the quarterbacks coach for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Here's a look at some of the photos after George was unveiled as the new Bowling Green coach.
George has a challenging task ahead at Bowling Green since the program had posted winning seasons in each of Loeffler's past two years with the program. Loeffler eventually finished with a 27-41 record across six seasons with the Falcons.

George also expressed his excitement on opening up a new chapter at Bowling Green.
“I am truly excited to be the head coach at Bowling Green State University,” George said in his introductory press conference.
“Bowling Green is a wonderful community that has embraced the school and the athletics department. We are eager to immerse ourselves in the community and help build this program to the greatness it deserves."
He added:
"I am overwhelmed with excitement and joy for the possibilities this opportunity holds. I’m also thrilled to be back in the great state of Ohio, where I played my college football.
"I look forward to meeting the team, the coaches, everyone in the athletics department and everyone in the BGSU and Bowling Green community.”
George will begin his coaching job at Bowling Green after four years at Tennessee State.
