Eddie George
Edward Nathan George Jr. (born September 24, 1973) is an American football coach and former professional running back who is the head coach for the Bowling Green Falcons. He previously served as the head coach of the Tennessee State Tigers from 2021 to 2024. George played college football for the Ohio State Buckeyes from 1992 to 1995. He played in the National Football League (NFL) for nine seasons from 1996 to 2004, primarily for the Tennessee Titans franchise.
George was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He attended Abington Senior High School until the 10th grade and then transferred to Fork Union Military Academy. George enrolled at Ohio State University and played running back for the Buckeyes, starting for two seasons. As a senior in 1995, he led Ohio State to the Florida Citrus Bowl and won the Heisman Trophy. George was inducted to the College Football Hall of Fame in 2011 as a player, and the International Sports Hall of Fame in 2020.
The Houston Oilers selected George in the first round (14th overall) of the 1996 NFL draft. He played nine seasons as a running back in the NFL, with the Tennessee Titans (both in Tennessee and in Houston when the franchise was known as the Houston Oilers) and Dallas Cowboys for a single season in 2004. George became a starter immediately upon joining the Oilers. In 1999, after the franchise moved to Tennessee, he led the Titans to an appearance in Super Bowl XXXIV, was selected to the Pro Bowl, and was honored as a second-team All-Pro.
After football, George earned an MBA from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. In 2015, he guest-starred on an IFC episode of the satirical talk show Comedy Bang! Bang!, titled "Eddie George Wears a Navy Suit and Half-Zip Pullover." The following year, George appeared on Broadway in the musical Chicago as the hustling lawyer Billy Flynn.
George was born in Philadelphia. He played Pop Warner football for the Abington Raiders. He attended Abington Senior High School until the 10th grade, and then transferred to Fork Union Military Academy. George made the decision to stay at Fork Union Military Academy for a fifth preparatory school year or postgraduate year. Such choices are commonly made by high-school football players hoping to improve their recruitment status with colleges, but for George, it meant another year of the rigorous military lifestyle. He rushed for 1,372 yards in his postgraduate season at FUMA, attracting the attention of several major colleges.
George attended Ohio State University, where he majored in landscape architecture and played for the Ohio State Buckeyes football team. As a freshman, George scored three rushing touchdowns in a win over Syracuse, but suffered a major setback in a game against Illinois. In that game, George lost a fumble at the Illinois four-yard line that was returned 96 yards for a touchdown. Later in the game, with Ohio State leading by two points in the final quarter, George fumbled again, this time on Illinois' one-yard line. Illinois recovered the fumble and drove for the game-winning touchdown.
Before the Illinois game, George had carried the ball 25 times and scored five touchdowns, but he had only 12 more rushing attempts and no more touchdowns for the rest of the year. The following season, George was listed in the depth chart as the team's third-string running back, behind Raymont Harris. George carried the ball just 42 times, mostly when Ohio State had a large lead late in games, but showed his potential by averaging 5.3 yards per carry. As a junior, George became the team's starting running back and went on to rush for 1,442 yards and 12 touchdowns.
As a senior in 1995, George rushed for a school-record 1,927 yards and 24 touchdowns, an average of 148.23 yards per game, while also catching 47 passes for 417 yards and another touchdown (George only caught 16 passes in his first three seasons). One of his best performances of the year was in a 45–26 victory over Notre Dame, where George rushed for 207 yards, his third 200-yard game of the season. George also rushed for a school-record 314 yards and scored three touchdowns in OSU's victory over Illinois.
