Lemon went 3-18 in two seasons at the helm.

Savannah State University head football coach Theo Lemon has been relieved of his duties after two seasons at the helm of the Tiger football program. The announcement was made Thursday by interim athletics director Paula Jackson, who also dismissed Lemon's assistants.

"After much thought and consideration on the future of the SSU football program, we have decided to relieve Coach Lemon of his duties at Savannah State," Jackson said. "We thank Coach Lemon for what he brought to the football program during his tenure, but in the best interest of SSU athletics, we are seeking a different direction."

Lemon compiled a record of 3-18 in two seasons at SSU, 2-9 in 2006 and 1-9 in 2007. He joined the SSU athletics program in April of 2006 from Central State of Ohio, where he was head coach for three years.

There, he resurrected the football program, which had been dormant since 1996.

Claud Flythe, SSU's vice president for administration, said he and Jackson will immediately launch a search to identify a new head football coach.

This tells me that Wheeler needs to schedule SSU for next season. Knowing them, they probably won't have a coach in place until after March.
