Mike Norvell is currently the head coach at Memphis. To this point, Norvell is in his fourth season with the Tigers. In 2019, Norvell has the program at 12-1 and winners of the American Athletic Conference.
During his four years, Norvell has put together a 38-15 overall record.
Names like Indiana’s Tom Allen and Penn State’s James Franklin were reportedly options, but Allen and Franklin signed extensions to stay at their current schools earlier this week.
