That\u2019s the most victories the program has ever seen at the FBS level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sumrall was the Sun Belt Coach of the Year in 2022. This was just one season after taking the helm following a stint as Kentucky\u2019s co-defensive coordinator and inside linebackers coach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Last year was an amazing accomplishment for everyone associated with Troy Football and was the product of relentless effort from our players and staff, athletic administration and university leaders,&#8221; Sumrall said in a press release. &#8220;&#8230; This represents an investment in the future of Troy Football for our players, coaches and staff.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Trojans were strong defensively in 2022. They allowed just 17.5 points per game, which was the eighth-fewest in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They held every one of their opponents to under their season average in scoring. That included Appalachian State, Western Kentucky, and UTSA, which were in the top 25 in scoring in the nation. Troy was also in the top 20 for the fewest yards allowed per game (325.6).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trick will be sustaining this success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shiel Wood, Troy\u2019s defensive coordinator in 2022, left to take the same position at Tulane. Greg Gasparato, previously an assistant at Louisville, was hired to be the new DC and to coach safeties while Tayler Polk added co-defensive coordinator to his title and will continue coaching inside linebackers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Troy head coach Jon Sumrall announced Friday that Tayler Polk has been promoted to co-defensive coordinator. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RiseToBuild?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#RiseToBuild<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/OneTROY?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#OneTROY<\/a> \u2694\ufe0f\ud83c\udfc8 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/OR2NE2oXMY\">pic.twitter.com\/OR2NE2oXMY<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Troy Trojans Football 8x\u2694\ufe0f (@TroyTrojansFB) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TroyTrojansFB\/status\/1639353465209237506?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 24, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And the Trojans lost plenty of talent on that side of the ball.
