CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Citadel Bulldogs' offensive coordinator Brent Thompson has been named the ' head football coach, replacing Mike Houston.

Thompson was at Lenoir-Rhyne from 2010-13 before coming to the Citadel. His attack there in 2013 set the NCAA record for all divisions in rushing yards in a season with 5,563. Thompson's attack produced 27 individual 100-yard rushing games at the Citadel the past two years. The Bulldogs went 9-4 last year to earn the Southern Conference title and reach the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision playoffs.
