George is going to attempt to repeat that success as new head coach of the Tennessee State Tigers.
The Tigers compete in the Ohio Valley Conference and are currently 2-4 and in the middle of their spring schedule. The pandemic forced them to reschedule their season from the fall, but they will be back playing in the fall of 2021. George will actually face off against another former NFL star on September 11th in Deion Sanders, who is now in his first season as head man with Jackson State.
