BOWLING GREEN FALCON FOOTBALL

Bowling Green State University Director of Athletics D. Christopher Kingston announced on Dec. 9, 2015 that he haD tabbed Texas Tech Associate Head Coach Mike Jinks to lead the defending Mid-American Conference Champion football

program. Jinks, who also coaches running backs for the Red Raiders, will become the 19th head coach in program history. “I would like to welcome Mike to the Falcon family and the Bowling Green community,” President Mary Ellen Mazey commented. “Mike understands the important leadership role he will play in developing our student athletes for their futures. He is a great role model and will take us onward and upward.” “We are so pleased that Mike Jinks and his family have accepted the offer to be here at Bowling Green State University to lead the football program,” Kingston said. “Mike is a man of impeccable character and integrity. He places a high value on education and he is a winner. I am excited to see him guide this program to continued success in the pursuit of greatness.” Jinks, who comes to BGSU after spending the 2015 season as Associate Head Coach, has coached the Red Raiders’ running backs for the past three seasons. Prior to his time at Texas Tech, he was a National Coach of the Year finalist while winning the 2010 Texas State Championship and compiling a record of 43-4 in his final three seasons at San Antonio powerhouse, Steele High School. “I look forward to the opportunity to lead this incredibly successful program,” Jinks began. “I am most excited about building on the winning culture and taking this incredible journey with the players and staff.” Known for their prolific offense, Texas Tech has seen great success this season with Jinks. The Red Raiders own the second-best offense in the country, totaling 7,134 yards in 12 games (594.5 yards per game). TTU also has the second-best passing offense. The Red Raiders are averaging 46.6 points per game (second in FBS) and have had 33

touchdown drives under two minutes this season. Texas Tech also ranks inside the top five nationally for third-down conversions (.519), first downs offense (346), and plays run (1,002). Under Jinks, Texas Tech has seen incredible success in the running game. In just his second season, Jinks tutored DeAndre Washington, who became the first Red Raiders’ running back since Ricky Williams in 1998 to surpass 1,000 yards rushing in a single season. Washington finished the season with 1,103 rushing yards and was named second team All-Big 12.This season, Washington has turned into the Big 12 Conference’s most prolific rusher under Jinks, totaling a league-best 1,455 yards on the ground and 14 touchdowns. Washington is also second in the Big 12 in all-purpose yards (146.6 yards per game) behind only teammate Jakeem Grant (180.6 yards per game). The Texas Tech rushing attack averages 204.8 yards per game and has tallied 34 rushing touchdowns this season. Jinks joined the Texas Tech program after a highly successful tenure at Steele High School in Cibolo, Texas – a suburb of San Antonio. Jinks was the first head coach at Steele when the school opened its doors in 2005, and it didn’t take long for him to mold the program into a state powerhouse. While at Steele, Jinks compiled a 76-18 record overall, including an impressive 43-4 mark in his final three seasons. He led the Knights to the 2010 Class 5A Division II State Championship and to the state finals again in 2011. His highly successful career at Steele led him to receiving the honor of coaching the West Team in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl in January 2013. He was also a finalist for the Xenith National High School Coach of the Year Award.

Perry Eliano has been hired by Mike Jinks and will serve as the Falcons’ Associate Head Coach and Defensive Coordinator, coaching the safeties. Eliano comes to Bowling Green after coaching the past five seasons at the University of Texas-San Antonio. At UTSA, Eliano was the special teams coordinator and coached safeties.

“My family and I are excited about the awesome opportunity we have to be a part of such a phenomenal university,” said Eliano. “We are looking forward to embracing the great tradition here at BGSU. We will be relentless in everything we do!” Last season, Eliano mentored a defensive backfield which had 14 interceptions. Under Jinks, Eliano will take over an already aggressive defense and turn up the heat, as the Falcons have had 20 interceptions in 2015. Eliano coached two players who earned All-CUSA honors in cornerback Bennett Okotcha (second team) and safety Michael Egwuagu (honorable mention). In 2014, Eliano helped lead a defense that ranked in the Conference USA top five in five different statistical categories, including second in rushing defense (140.8 ypg). UTSA forced 19 turnovers (10 fumbles/9 INTs) with his safeties combining for seven of the picks. Free safety Triston Wade was one of 15 semifinalists for the Jim Thorpe Award (nation’s top defensive back) — a program first — and he also garnered second-team all-conference honors after registering team highs for tackles (86), interceptions (4), pass breakups (10) and fumble recoveries (2). Wade signed with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent in May 2015.

Eliano’s special teams also excelled in 2014, as the Roadrunners led the league in net punting (39.3 avg.) on the strength of honorable mention all-conference punter Kristian Stern, who set school records for punts (83) and punting average (41.2), and were tied for third in field goals behind second-team all-conference place-kicker Sean Ianno, who made 17-of-21, including a school-record 53-yarder against Florida Atlantic, along with registering 16 touchbacks on kickoffs. Deep snapper Jesse Medrano also collected second-team all-conference honors. In 2013, Eliano helped lead UTSA to a 7-5 overall record, including victories over a pair of bowl teams. The Roadrunners finished second in the West Division with a 6-2 mark in their first season in Conference USA. He helped tutor a defense that forced 14 turnovers (6 fumbles/8 INTs), with the safeties combining for six of the picks, and allowed just 143.1 rushing yards per game. Wade led the team in tackles (94), solo tackles (54) and interceptions (two), while Nic Johnston was third in stops (70). On special teams, Ianno established a school record for touchbacks with 21 and connected on all 38 of his extra-point attempts.

Wade earned second-team All-Conference USA honors, while Johnston and Stern were honorable mention all-conference.

In 2012, Eliano helped lead UTSA to an 8-4 overall record and a 3-3 mark in its first and only season in the Western Athletic Conference (WAC). The campaign was highlighted by historic wins against South Alabama, the program’s first road and Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) victory, and New Mexico State, its first league win. The defense forced 29 turnovers (16 fumbles/13 interceptions), which led to 22 scores (15 TDs/7 FGs), and Wade garnered first-team All-WAC accolades. In his first year overseeing special teams, the placekickers combined to make 15-of-19 field goals and all 45 PATs. Kenny Harrison finished second in the FBS in punt return average (17.3), had a program-record 79-yard TD return in the season-ending victory against I-35 rival Texas State and was an honorable mention all-league selection.. Eliano helped lead the Roadrunners to a 4-6 record during their inaugural campaign in 2011. The defense allowed just 21.4 points and 126.2 yards rushing per game and forced 21 turnovers (11 fumbles, 10 interceptions), which led to 15 scores. His safeties recovered six fumbles — three by Johnston — and picked off five passes. Additionally, three of the team’s top five tacklers were in his unit — Mark Waters (68/2nd), Johnston (59/4th) and Mauricio Sanchez (44/5th). Prior to his time on the Roadrunners coaching staff, Eliano was an assistant at Central Arkansas from 2006-10. He coached defensive backs throughout his tenure and was named associate head coach prior to his final season. Eliano coached the 2005 season as Sam Houston State’s secondary coach after an earlier two-season stint at Central Arkansas as the running backs and wide receivers coach. Eliano coached wide receiver Mike Norvell at Central Arkansas, who was recently hired as Memphis’ head coach. A Killeen, Texas native, Eliano got his coaching start as a graduate assistant at his alma mater, Stephen F. Austin, from 2001-02. Eliano played linebacker for the Lumberjacks from 1996-99. He was the team’s Defensive Most Valuable Player and leading tackler in both 1998 and ‘99. Playing strong safety as a senior, he registered a team-high 99 tackles to help guide the Lumberjacks to the Southland Championship and was named all-conference following that campaign. He also was named the Ralph Todd Award (University Outstanding Male Athlete) winner the following spring. A standout prep defensive back, Eliano was a three-year letterwinner at Ellison High School from 1993-95. He earned all-state honors following his senior season after helping the Eagles reach the Class 5A state quarterfinals. Eliano earned his bachelor’s degree from Stephen F. Austin in 2000 and a master’s in secondary education three years later. He and his wife, Regenia, have two sons, Amari and Evan.

Kevin Kilmer will join the staff of new head coach Mike Jinks as the Co-Offensive Coordinator. He will work with the Falcons’ wide receivers. “I’m fired up to be part of the BG family,” Kilmer commented. “I can’t wait to get out on the field with the players. I’m very thankful for the opportunity from Coach Jinks and BGSU.” Kilmer spent last season at Texas Tech as the offensive quality control coach, after previously serving as an offensive graduate assistant for the Red Raiders. Kilmer, who graduated from Texas Tech with a Bachelor of Arts in History in 2011 and a Master of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies in 2015, has been at TTU since 2007. He began his coaching career as a student assistant under Mike Leach, who is currently the head coach at Washington State. He has also worked for Tommy Tuberville – currently at Cincinnati – and Kliff Kingsbury.

The Red Raiders have been to a bowl game in seven of nine seasons with Kilmer on the staff, as he is no stranger to postseason success. During his time with the program, he has coached the quarterbacks, wide receivers and running backs. Besides working under the three Texas Tech head coaches, Kilmer has worked alongside of Lincoln Riley (currently Offensive Coordinator at Oklahoma), Neal Brown (currently Head Coach at Troy) and most recently, Jinks. Kilmer has been responsible for film breakdown and game planning during the past year as Offensive Quality Control. On game day, he charted the defense and also helped organize recruiting visits for the Red Raiders. He has also served as the Kliff Kingsbury Football Summer Camps Director, responsible for all aspects of the camp. Kilmer, a native of Slaton, Texas, is married to his wife Jaryn. The couple was married in March of 2014.

Marcus White joins Mike Jinks staff at Bowling Green as the Co-Defensive Coordinator. White, who coached the 2015 season at Faulkner University, will coach the defensive line for the Falcons. Jinks and White previously worked together at Texas Tech, as White served the Red Raiders in an off-the-field role the two seasons prior. “What an honor it is to be able to coach at such a prestigious university such as Bowling Green,” White began. “It’s not every day that you get to be a part of a program with such a storied tradition and record of excellence both on and off the field. I want to thanks Coach Jinks, Chris Kingston and his administration for affording me and my family such a great opportunity.” White, a former player at Auburn and Murray State, joined the Faulkner staff as the defensive line coach prior to the 2015 season. In 2015, Faulkner went 7-3 and won their final four games of the season. The Eagles totaled 103.0 tackles for loss and 48.0 sacks. Freshman Qunn Johnson was named Mid-South Conference’s West Division defensive Freshman of the Year, registering 45 tackles, 8.5 TFL, and 5.5 sacks. Additionally, defensive lineman Tony Threatt was named first team All-MSC after totaling 51 tackles, 11.5 TFL and 8.5 sacks. Johnson was named second team All-MSC.

Having originally signed with Auburn, White transferred prior to the 2003 season to Murray State, where he was an All-Ohio Valley Conference selection for three years. White was a member of the NFL’s Tennessee Titans from 2005-2007 before concluding his professional career in the Arena Football League.

A graduate of Murray State, White was an offensive analyst at Texas Tech prior to his time at Faulkner. He served as an offensive quality control assistant at Houston in 2012, Tarleton State’s offensive line coach in ‘11 and worked another year at Houston in ‘10 as an offensive graduate assistant. A Theodore, Ala., product, he was an assistant at St. Paul’s Episcopal in Mobile, Ala., in ‘09 and the defensive line coach at Jackson Olin High in Birmingham, Ala., in ‘08.

White and his wife, Jaunelle, have three daughters - MaKiah, Jailyn, and Layla.

Andy Padron comes to Bowling Green to join the coaching staff of head coach Mike Jinks after coaching the past six seasons at Texas Lutheran University. Padron will be the Falcons’ Co-Offensive Coordinator, responsible for the quarterbacks. “My wife and I are extremely excited to be joining the Bowling Green

community and the Falcon coaching staff,” Padron started. “We are ready to get to BGSU and continue building upon the winning tradition!” Padron joined his father, TLU Head Football Coach Danny Padron, on the coaching staff of the Bulldogs when he accepted the head coaching position in January 2010. The younger Padron handled the play-calling duties in 2011 as the quarterbacks coach and has continued in that duty to present day. He was elevated to offensive coordinator following the 2011 season. In his six seasons with the Bulldogs, Padron coached an offense and individual players that combined to set 49 new TLU team and individual records.

After inheriting a program that went 6-24 in the three previous seasons, Padron helped engineer a turn-around that produced a 38-22 overall record over the next six seasons.

The Bulldogs won three Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Championships, claimed a 2014 NCAA Division III Championship playoff berth, and received repeated Top 25 national rankings. The 2015 TLU Bulldogs won a third straight Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Championship and led the SCAC in nearly every offensive category. The Bulldogs went 3-0 in the SCAC and 8-2 overall, just missing out on an NCAA DIII at-large playoff berth.

As the team’s quarterbacks coach, Padron guided TLU QB Trenton White to the 2015 SCAC Offensive Player of the Year award. White set the new TLU school record for career passing touchdowns (61).

White led the SCAC in passing yards, passing yards per game, completions (TLU single-season record 207), attempts, completion percentage and touchdowns. White finished second in TLU history in career passing yards (5,874) and completion percentage (62.7).

Among all NCAA DIII schools in 2015, the Bulldogs currently rank 22nd in total offense, 32nd in passing offense, 21st in scoring offense, 29th in first downs, 14th in red zone offense, 11th in time of possession, and 18th in completion percentage.

The 2014 TLU Bulldogs advanced to the NCAA Division III playoffs as an at-large bid team. The

2014 NCAA playoff appearance was TLU’s first in NCAA DIII and the first in program history since the 1976 NAIA-II national semifinal.

The Bulldogs, 17th in the AFCA Coaches’ Poll at the end of the 2014 regular season, fell 27-20 in the NCAA Football Championship first round to No. 2-ranked University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, in a game played at UMHB’s Crusader Stadium over a weather-delayed two days.
