Posted By: HBCU CONNECT on January 22, 2026 Check out this video from Albany State University in Albany, Georgia! Albany State University and the Department of Athletics will officially welcome a new era of Golden Rams football with an introductory press conference for head football coach David Bowser on Wednesday, January 21, at 2:00 p.m. inside Lovett Hall on ASU’s East Campus. Bowser was named the 10th head coach in the storied history of Albany State football on December 24, bringing with him a proven track record of leadership, defensive excellence, and championship success at the NCAA Division II level. Most recently, Bowser served as Special Assistant to the Head Coach/Director of Player Personnel/Linebackers Coach at Johnson C. Smith University, where he played a pivotal role in guiding the Golden Bulls to the 2025 CIAA Championship. Under his leadership, JCSU’s defense ranked among the nation’s elite—finishing top 15 in rushing defense, top five nationally in sacks, and top 10 in tackles for loss, while leading the CIAA in all four defensive categories, including interceptions. With more than 20 years of collegiate athletics experience, Bowser arrives in Albany as a seasoned coach, administrator, and program builder. Prior to his time at Johnson C. Smith, he served in a dual role as Head Football Coach and Director of Athletics at St. Augustine’s University, gaining valuable experience overseeing both competitive and administrative operations. He also spent nearly two decades at Fayetteville State University, where he served as Associate Head Football Coach and Linebackers Coach, contributing to multiple CIAA championship teams and helping develop student-athletes who went on to professional football careers. The introductory press conference will feature remarks from Coach David Bowser, Albany State University President Dr. Robert O. Scott, and Director of Athletics Dr. Kristene Kelly, as they outline the vision and excitement surrounding the future of Golden Rams football. This event marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Albany State football, as the Golden Rams prepare to build on their proud tradition under Bowser’s leadership.
