Holmes CC football assistant coach Les George has been hired as the new head football coach at Southwest Mississippi Community College.
The school made that announcement Wednesday morning on its website and social media pages.
George served as co-offensive coordinator and assistant head coach at Holmes for the past three seasons under Marcus Wood.
He helped lead the Bulldogs to a 7-3 record this season and a birth in the MACCC playoffs for the first time since 2002.
“As a player and a coach, I’ve been blessed to have been a part of some successful community college football teams,” George said in the school’s press release. “And I look forward to taking that experience and using that to lead the Southwest Community College Football program.”
George’s first game as head coach will be against his former team as the Bears will travel to Goodman to face Holmes to open the 2025 season.
