Charlotte's Football Future in Tim Albin's Hands

Albin's Coaching Journey

Tim Albin's coaching career has been a remarkable one. He has spent over three decades in the football world, working with various teams and leaving an indelible mark wherever he goes. From his early days as an assistant coach at Northeastern State to his recent stints at Ohio and North Dakota State, Albin has continuously demonstrated his coaching prowess.

At Northwestern Oklahoma State, he led the team to a perfect 13-0 record and a NAIA National Championship in 1999, earning him NAIA Coach of the Year honors. His time at Nebraska as a graduate assistant and later as a running backs coach also played a crucial role in his development as a coach.

Success at Ohio

Over the past four seasons at Ohio, Albin has been nothing short of exceptional. He posted a 33-19 record, including a 23-9 mark against conference opponents. His teams have achieved three consecutive 10-win seasons from 2022-24 and have made three consecutive bowl game appearances.

The 2024 MAC Championship was a significant milestone for the program, marking the first since 1968. The team's 35-point victory over Miami (Ohio) was the largest in the 28-year history of the MAC Championship game, while allowing only three points was the fewest in title game history.

Bringing Success to Charlotte

Now, Albin is ready to bring his winning ways to Charlotte. He is excited to start the process of developing the 49ers into a championship-caliber program. With his leadership and commitment to the holistic development of student-athletes, he is confident that the football program will continue to grow and thrive.

Chancellor Sharon L. Gaber and Director of Athletics Mike Hill have placed their trust in Albin, and he is eager to get started. Under his leadership, the 49ers are set to represent Charlotte with pride on the football field.
