The search to replace James Green at Jacksonville State is heating up. I have heard that former Western Kentucky head coach Ray Harper is the hot name here. He resigned at WKU back on March 17th. Harper has a 88-64 career record (18-16 this past season). I have also heard former UAB and East Tennessee State head coach Murry Bartow mentioned here. He was fired after going 16-15 in his final season at ETSU in 2014-15. He holds a career mark of 327-248 in 18-seasons as a DI head coach. Finally, I have also heard long-time Alabama-Huntsville head coach Lennie Acuff’s name come up multiple times surrounding this search. He’s coming off a 25-8 season at UAH and has won 370 games during his tenure at the school. Acuff has also been the head coach at Berry and Belhaven, and owns a career record of 485-300. I have also heard reports of a few low/mid major south region assistants involved here. More on this as I hear it.
