What do we know about Memphis Tigers Football Head Coach candidate Jerry Mack from Kennesaw State? J&J discussed it on Wednesday's (12/3) Jason & John Show---AUDIO:
With former coach Ryan Silverfield off to a new job, Memphis is casting a wide net. Jerry Mack stands out: a Memphis native who already coached at Memphis (as receivers coach in 2011), with recent NFL experience and now turning around Kennesaw State into a 10-win program in 2025.
Beyond Mack, other plausible options include Jason Eck (currently at New Mexico), whose Lobos are 9-3 and rising. Another is longtime Memphis offensive coordinator Tim Cramsey, who knows the roster and helped shape one of the most potent offenses in the Group of Five.
Mack’s appeal comes from a mix of local ties, prior familiarity with the program, and demonstrated success in both college and the NFL, making him arguably among the front-runners if Memphis values continuity plus a fresh start.
