FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Chancellor Henry Fernandez and Vice President Brian Hankerson announced on Tuesday that the next head coach for the Eagles Football team would be Quincy Wilson.

“I’m very pleased and excited about the hiring of Quincy,” said Fernandez. “He brings experience at the NCAA level and has been successful there, as well as experience in the NFL. He is very energetic, a strong recruiter and a talented football coach. Wilson brings great passion to the UFTL family, and we are excited to see what he can do as he gets on campus.”

Wilson takes over the helm of the UFTL football program after spending the last four seasons as the Associate Head Coach, Running Backs Coach and the Director of Football Operations at West Virginia State University.

Before WVSU, Wilson spent 2016 at Glenville State College as the Running Backs Coach.

He got his start in the college ranks at his Alma mater, West Virginia University, where he was the Assistant Director of Football Operations from 2012-15.

“I’m excited about the opportunity,” Wilson said. “I’m inspired by the challenge, and I’m grateful to be the leader of this program. My role as the head coach at the University of Fort Lauderdale is to cast the vision for t our future and drive a strong, healthy culture.”

“My family and I would like to thank the committee,” Wilson said. “I’m very humbled by the selection, and I’m excited to join the UFTL family.”

Wilson attended Weir High School in Weirton, W.V.; he would become the first football player in West Virginia history to rush for more than 3,000 yards in a single season. He finished with 3,262 yards on 351 carries (a 9.4 avg.), averaging 233 yards per game. This performance gave him third ranking amongst prep football players. Wilson set several records and led Weir High School to a 14-0 record and a Class AA State Championship where he rushed for 250 yards. He managed 47 touchdowns and 290 points that year, a state record. Over his high school career, Wilson rushed for 6,161 yards and scored 90 touchdowns.

Wilson earned Third-team AP All-American honors and was an All-Big East First team pick by ESPN, his senior year at WVU, in 2003. He amassed 1,380 yards with a 4.9 average and 12 touchdowns. His senior year, he was also named the WVU offensive MVP and he won the team’s Ira Rodgers Award for all-around excellence. His rushing yardage total was the 12th most in the NCAA on the year.

During his career, he played in 44 games at West Virginia; on 474 rushing attempts, he turned in a total of 2,608 yards and 20 touchdowns, to go with 25 receptions for 147 yards and a touchdown. His rushing attempts and yards both ranked fifth in school history at the close of his career.

Wilson is known for one of, if not the greatest play in WVU football history, “The Run,” against the No. 2 Miami Hurricanes in the 2003 season. He would catch a screen pass on third and 13, and he would go on to break three tackles, trucking and leaping over a player, to score the go-ahead score late in the game.

Wilson was selected in the seventh round (219th overall) of the 2004 NFL Draft by the Atlanta Falcons. He would go on to play for the Cincinnati Bengals from 2004-07.

Wilson has a son, Trenton Xavier Wilson, who is currently a sophomore at Ohio Dominican University pursuing a degree in Pre-Med. His mother, Kyle Wilson, resided in Weirton, WV. He is the son of former All-Pro, Super Bowl Champion with the Chicago Bears Otis Wilson. He has two sisters, Danielle and Chlyla Wilson and a niece Lyla Wilson.

NEW ORLEANS – No. 16/18 Coastal Carolina and South Alabama remained unbeaten, while ULM snapped a 12-game skid in Week Three action. The Chanticleers are off to a 3-0 start for the second-straight season, while the Jaguars are 3-0 for the first time since joining the FBS in 2012. 

Louisiana moved to 6-0 in non-conference home games under head coach Billy Napier with a 49-14 rout of Ohio Thursday night, in front of a primetime audience on ESPN. The Ragin’ Cajuns rushed for 310 yards in the contest, led by an 84-yard, four-touchdown effort from freshman running back Montrell Johnson. 

No. 16/18 Coastal Carolina proved victorious in its first road test of the 2021 season—defeating Buffalo, 28-25, to run its winning streak in true road contests to six games and earn its first win in the state of New York in the process. The Chanticleers are off to a 3-0 start for the fourth time in program history (2014, 2015, 2020 & 2021). 

In front of a sellout crowd of 30,224—the eighth-largest crowd in the history of Kidd Brewer Stadium—App State bested Elon, 44-10. Senior linebacker T.D. Roof’s 90-yard interception return and fellow senior linebacker D’Marco Jackson’s 4.5 tackles for loss and three sacks highlighted the defensive effort for the Mountaineers. 

Offensively, graduate student quarterback Chase Brice was 19-of-25 for 293 yards and a touchdown, while adding another touchdown on the ground. Two Mountaineer wide receivers eclipsed the 100-yard mark, super seniors Corey Sutton (128 yards) and Malik Williams (123 yards, 1 touchdown). 

A career-long 76-yard touchdown scamper for redshirt junior quarterback Justin Tomlin headlined the Georgia Southern offensive production in a 45-10 loss at No. 20/24 Arkansas. 

Arkansas State fell, 52-3, to Washington in the first-ever meeting of the two programs. 

Georgia State picked up its first victory of the 2021 campaign with a 20-9 win over previously unbeaten Charlotte. 

With five tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks, redshirt freshman bandit Javon Solomon led a Troy defensive unit that combined for 16 tackles for loss and nine sacks. The Trojans overcame a 3-0 halftime deficit to best Southern Miss, 21-9. 

Texas State failed to recover an onside kick in a one-possession game with 56 seconds to play, falling victim to Incarnate Word, 42-34. 

Behind four field goals from senior kicker Calum Sutherland, ULM snapped a 12-game skid and earned the first win of the Terry Bowden era with a 12-7 victory over Jackson State. Sutherland connected from 29, 45, 42 and 49 yards out to produce all of the scoring for the Warhawks.

In its first season under head coach Kane Wommack, South Alabama is off to its first 3-0 start since joining the FBS in 2012. A 150-yard, three-touchdown performance from senior running back Kareem Walker propelled the Jaguars to a 28-21 victory over Alcorn State.

COMMERCE, Texas – Top-ranked UWF scored 21 unanswered points and held No. 21/13 Texas A&M Commerce to 67 yards of total offense after halftime in a 35-17 win at Memorial Stadium on Saturday.
 
UWF (3-0) had 434 yards of total offense with a 6.5 yards per play average. A&M Commerce (1-2) finished with 231 yards of offense.
 
Austin Reed threw for 274 yards and a pair of touchdowns, while leading the Argonauts to scoring drives on five of their eight possessions before ending the game in victory formation inside the Lions’ 10-yard line.
 
Shomari Mason powered an aggressive rushing attack with 94 yards on 17 carries and a touchdown. Jervon Newton and Anthony Johnson, Jr. each ran for a score as the trio combined for 169 yards on the ground and 4.6 yards per rush. Seven of UWF’s 12 live ball first downs in the second half were on the ground.
 
The UWF defense was stout all game long but put on a clinic in the second half. In addition to limiting A&M Commerce to 231 yards of total offense on the night, they sacked Jaiave Magalei five times and forced two turnovers in the fourth quarter. Trent Archie had eight tackles and two sacks, while Stephon Williams had eight stops and a sack as well.
 
The Lions played deliberate, ball control offense in the first half, using 17:53 of time of possession to build a 17-14 lead, including taking advantage of a muffed punt in the final minute of the half that led to a field goal. But UWF’s defense forced A&M Commerce to punt after drives of six and three plays, allowing the explosive Argo offense to get going.
 
Reed led scoring drives of eight plays, five plays and five plays while building the big lead. Newton and Mason each got to the end zone and David Durden was untouched as he caught a 19-yard crossing route in the end zone.
 
The win extended the UWF winning streak to a record nine games, while establishing new benchmarks for consecutive road wins and consecutive wins over ranked opponents, both of which are now at six games apiece. It was also the team’s fifth-straight road win over a ranked team as they improved to 10-5 all-time on the road against top-25 opponents.
 
UWF returns home next week for its first game at Blue Wahoos Stadium in 2021. The Argos will play host to the University of Fort Lauderdale (0-2) at 6 p.m. Tailgate lots at Community Maritime Park open at 2 p.m. and stadium gates open at 5 p.m.
