Quote:The timing is almost too good to be true.

While Mercer officials were holding a news conference on Nov. 19 announcing the resumption of football after a 70-year hiatus, Furman was preparing a news release that Bobby Lamb was resigning as the Paladins’ head coach.

About two months later, Mercer is the beneficiary of Lamb’s only losing season at Furman and will announce Lamb on Thursday as its first head football coach since 1941.

I'm glad to hear we got a coach from a FCS program, versus taking on a high school coach, juco, etc.

I don't know much about him, but his record at Furman was impressive.

Press conference scheduled for Thursday Jan 20th at the Bear Cafe.
