Southern Miss Fires Football Coach Will Hall After 1-6 Start

Assistant head coach Reed Stringer appointed as interim coach following Hall's dismissal after four seasons.

Will Hall was let go after compiling a 14-30 record over 3.5 seasons at Southern Miss, with a notable 7-6 season in 2022.
The Golden Eagles have struggled this year, securing only one win against a lower-division team, Southeastern Louisiana.
Athletic director Jeremy McClain expressed gratitude for Hall's dedication but cited unmet goals as the reason for the change.
Southern Miss ranks poorly in the Sun Belt Conference, both in scoring and defense, contributing to Hall's dismissal.
The program will conduct a national search for a new head coach while focusing on supporting its student-athletes.
