A Lion Through and Through

Bo is a proud graduate of North Alabama, where he played from 2005 to 2007. During his time, the team achieved an impressive 44 wins and only 8 losses. Before joining North Alabama, he served as a defensive coordinator at Sheffield High School and was an All-State honorable mention player in high school.

Expanding the Coaching Staff

North Alabama's coaching team is growing stronger:

  • Clint Bowen – Defensive Coordinator & Assistant Head Coach
  • Colby Ellis – Wide Receivers Coach
  • Max Halpin – Offensive Line & Run Game Coach

A Dream Come True

Bo is excited about his new role, calling it "a dream come true." He believes the team's experience will elevate their performance. With a deep love for North Alabama—having first stepped on campus 20 years ago—this promotion marks a full-circle moment for him.
