It has been reported that Notre Dame offensive coordinator Gerad Parker is set to become the new head coach of the Troy Trojans. According to an Associated Press source, Parker has accepted the job and will be formally announced as the new head coach in the coming days.
Gerad Parker has been a part of the Notre Dame coaching staff since 2018, and has served as the offensive coordinator since 2019. He is highly respected in the coaching community for his ability to develop young talent and his creative offensive strategies.
