Assistant Coach Jason French made his move to join GSU four years ago after finishing an eight-year professional playing career.

French has tutored the Panther linebackers, including current New York Giants' Jake Muasau. This year, French adds more responsibilities to coordinate the GSU special teams.

As a player, French graduated from Murray (Ky.) State with 55 pass receptions and was drafted in the second round of the Canadian Football League. He played eight years with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Saskatchewan Roughriders, where he made his moves to rank among their top-20 all-time receivers.

Born in Montreal, French moved to Atlanta with his family and graduated from Columbia High in Decatur. Jason and his wife, Amber, have two daughters.
