Sep 9, 2023; Fayetteville, Arkansas, USA; Kent State Golden Flashes head coach Kenni Burns during the second quarter against the Arkansas Razorbacks at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Nelson Chenault-Imagn Images Kent State fired football coach Kenni Burns on Friday on the heels of a 0-12 season in 2024.
Burns, 41, was placed on administrative leave on March 27 and departs with a 1-23 record in two seasons.
Offensive coordinator Mark Carney will serve as the Golden Flashes’ interim coach for the 2025 season.
“At this time, our focus will be to support our student-athletes and provide them with the best opportunity to have a positive and competitive experience,” athletic director Randale L. Richmond said in a statement.
The school did not provide a specific reason for Burns’ termination. CBS Sports reported in November that he was being sued by an Ohio bank for an unpaid credit card debt of nearly $24,000.
Kent State, which competes in the Mid-American Conference, was outscored by a 529-167 margin in 2024.
The Golden Flashes open the 2025 season against FCS program Merrimack on Aug. 30 in Kent, Ohio.
The school said it will conduct a national search after the season. Kent State alumnus Josh Cribbs, a three-time Pro Bowl receiver who played 10 seasons with the Cleveland Browns, publicly has expressed interest in the job.

Texas might have gotten back on track with its decisive victory over Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry. Alabama picked up a key ranked win, and Ohio State continues to roll.All of that was overshadowed by Penn State's decision to fire James Franklin on Sunday following a third straight loss. But the rankings must go on, so here's Joel Klatt's latest top 10. ADVERTISEMENT Klatt's thoughts: "This team has separated themselves out. They haven't even shifted into third gear. Ohio State's the best team in the country. That's the best defense in the country. Their quarterback is the most efficient quarterback in the country. They […]

Handball-Tor des Monats – Teenagerin stiehlt allen die Show
Endlich war es wieder so weit. Die Daikin Handball-Bundesliga hatte Anfang Oktober alle Fans dazu aufgerufen, das erste Tor des Monats nach der Sommerpause zu küren. Es ging um den schönsten Treffer im September. Sechs Tore standen wie immer zur Auswahl, und eine Teenagerin stahl all ihren Kontrahenten die Show. Die 18-jährige Leonie Udaw der Turnerschaft St. Tönis (NRW) bekam die meisten Stimmen für ihren Treffer. Im Spiel der A-Juniorinnen-Bundesliga gegen Bayer 04 Leverkusen war sie nach einem Kempa-Pass erfolgreich, den sie mustergültig abschloss (s.
