A former Maryland offensive lineman from 2007-09, Bowen has been Virginia Tech’s offensive coordinator since 2022, also coaching the Hokies’ tight ends that year and the Hokies’ quarterbacks for the past two years. He was previously the Jacksonville Jaguars’ tight ends coach for one year, working for Urban Meyer during his lone season as the Jaguars’ head coach, after three years as an assistant coach at Penn State, where he also coached the tight ends and was the Nittany Lions’ co-offensive coordinator for one year in 2020.
Bowen also served as the recruiting coordinator at Penn State, where he was the primary recruiter for several players who went on to be stars for the Nittany Lions including All-American left tackle Olu Fashanu and All-American tight end Tyler Warren.
Bowen, 35, was previously the offensive line coach at Maryland for one year (2017) and at Fordham for two years (2015-16).
His hiring adds offensive coordinator experience to Ohio State’s offensive coaching staff as the Buckeyes remain in the market for a new offensive coordinator to replace Chip Kelly. Current wide receivers coach Brian Hartline is the rumored frontrunner for that position, which could mean promoting offensive analyst Billy Fessler to fill the quarterbacks coach role that Kelly also held last season.
Ohio State also remains in the market for a new defensive coordinator following Jim Knowles’ departure for Penn State.
A skydiver crashed into the Lane Stadium scoreboard before Virginia Tech’s spring football game Saturday.
Virginia Tech officials said on X that the skydiver “was safely secured and is currently stable” following rescue efforts. The incident caused a delay in the start of the spring game.
“Thankful for game days with Hokie Nation and for the Blacksburg and Virginia Tech first responders whose quick actions safely returned today’s parachuter to the ground without injury,” the university said.
The name of the skydiver wasn’t released.
“Our primary focus remains on their well-being,” Virginia Tech officials said in a statement. “We extend our sincere appreciation to the first responders, event staff, and medical personnel for their swift, coordinated and professional response.”
Video footage showed the skydiver’s parachute landing between the “C” and the “H” on the Virginia Tech lettering on top of the scoreboard before first responders rescued him.
CBS News has reached out to the Blacksburg Fire Department for details on the incident.
A much cleaner performance carried Clemson baseball on Friday, as it answered the previous night’s loss with a 5-1 win over No. 9 Virginia.
Michael Sharman set the tone from the start. He kept Virginia off balance all night, working eight innings while giving up just a single run. There weren’t many free passes, and he consistently pitched ahead, which allowed him to stay in control deep into the game. Hayden Simmerson wrapped things up in the ninth without any trouble.
At the plate, Nate Savoie was the difference. He delivered two home runs, including a go-ahead shot later in the game that put Clemson in front for good. His first long ball gave the Tigers an early edge, and he finished with three RBIs on the night.
Virginia managed to pull even midway through, but Clemson quickly responded. The offense strung together quality at-bats, with Bryce Clavon driving in a run and Luke Gaffney continuing his strong weekend with multiple hits. The Tigers created more separation late, adding another run after working a bases-loaded situation.
Clemson moves to 25-15 overall and 6-11 in conference play with the win. The series now comes down to Saturday’s matchup in Charlottesville.
