NCAA Football Betting Lines

02/20/2007 - Clarksville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Austin Peay State head football coach Carroll McCray announced his resignation on Monday.

McCray's Governors posted just a 3-8 mark as an NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Independent last season. Austin Peay will rejoin the Ohio Valley Conference next season, completing a return to scholarship football initiated during McCray's tenure.

"I was disappointed to hear that coach McCrary would be leaving," said athletic director Dave Loos. "I believe that our football program is in the best shape it has been for some time."

McCray became the Governors' 16th head coach back in 2003, and compiled an 11-33 overall record in his four seasons with Austin Peay.

Loos said that the search for a new head coach would begin immediately.
