Memphis is finalizing a deal with Southern Miss head coach Charles Huff to become the next head coach of the Tigers, ESPN reported Saturday.
Huff, 42, reportedly will receive a five-year contract to replace Ryan Silverfield, who departed on Nov. 30 to take over at Arkansas.
Huff guided the Golden Eagles to a 7-5 record this season in his first season in Hattiesburg, Miss. Before that, he was 32-20 with three bowl appearances in four seasons at Marshall from 2021-24.
Huff was the architect of a dramatic turnaround in 2025, as Southern Miss went 5-3 in the Sun Belt Conference after going 0-8 in 2024 (1-11 overall).
Memphis is 8-4 this season and awaiting its fourth consecutive bowl selection.
Huff was an assistant head coach and running backs coach at Alabama under Nick Saban from 2019-20 before taking the job at Marshall. His assistant coaching stops also include Mississippi State (2018) and Penn State (2014-17).
