BOWLING GREEN, Ohio (WTVG) – Bowling Green State University football head coach Scot Loeffler is heading to Philadelphia to the quarterback coach position with the Super Bowl-winning Eagles.

Loeffler spent six seasons coaching the Falcons.

According to a press release by BGSU announcing the move, the team has already began the process to find his replacement.

“BGSU is a special university and community that truly embraces relationships, people and the student experience,” said Vice President for Athletics Strategy Derek van der Merwe. “In these last six seasons, Scot built a very successful program in a challenging climate in collegiate sports.  More importantly, he built this program while ensuring his team and coaches were truly committed to the values and mission that make this university great. Like other great coaches in the history of BGSU football, he has demonstrated that when you build around the strengths of this University and its mission, anything is possible. I am looking forward to this process of finding the next great leader for our program who embraces what it means to be a Falcon.”       

“Coach Loeffler has made a tremendous impact in rebuilding and reshaping BGSU Football, developing student-athletes and growing engagement across our learning community and the region,” said BGSU President Rodney K. Rogers. “Scot has been dedicated to not only BGSU Football, but to all our student-athletes and BGSU Athletics, as well as our Falcon Marching Band and spirit programs. He cares deeply about player development and student success, and we wish him all the best as he continues his coaching career in the NFL with the Super Bowl-winning Philadelphia Eagles.” 

In 2024, Loeffler led BGSU to his third win over Toledo in six tries, making him the first BGSU head coach since Gary Blackney to lead the Falcons to back-to-back victories at the Glass Bowl.
