A day after John Hartwell resigned as athletics director at Louisiana-Monroe, the school has named football coach Bryant Vincent as interim AD.
Vincent is headed into his second season as head coach of the Warhawks. He was previously offensive coordinator at both South Alabama and UAB, and served as the Blazers' interim coach during the 2022 season.
"I am grateful to Bryant for stepping up to serve as interim AD. Not only is Bryant a leader, but he builds teams and communities," ULM president Carrie Castille said. "Bryant has the support of the Associate ADs and will be working closely with them to ensure he can serve both roles and win games.
"He has already gained the support of this community as a head coach, and I hope that everyone will join me in rallying around him to support ULM Athletics. I have no doubt in Bryant's ability to serve in both roles with excellence and a winning spirit."
Vincent, 49, is a graduate of West Alabama. He coached many years on the high school level, including stints as head coach at both Greenville and Spanish Fort before moving up to the college ranks.
Hartwell, a Mobile native, resigned Monday after just 18 months on the job, with departmental budget cuts the biggest reason for his departure.
