After just two seasons with the Panthers, Eastern offensive coordinator Jon Carr resigned last week, head coach Bob Spoo said.

According to sources on the team, Carr, who is also the quarterback’s coach for Eastern, is leaving the Panthers to pursue a job at Mid-American Conference champion Toledo as a wide receivers coach. Neither Spoo nor anyone at Toledo could confirm any hirings and Carr couldn’t be reached for comment.

The Rockets wide receivers coach John Shannon, a 1976 Eastern grad, was promoted to offensive coordinator Feb. 18, leaving the receivers coaching position vacant.

Last year Carr’s offense was second in the Ohio Valley Conference in scoring (26.5 points per game), fourth in passing (224 yards per game) and third in rushing (167 ypg).

In Carr’s opening campaign with the Panthers, the team was second to last in the conference in scoring (17.5 ppg), second to last in passing (163 ypg) and last in total yards (293 ypg).

Previous to Eastern, Carr was the offensive coordinator at Tennessee State. In 2001 Carr’s Tiger offense was third in I-AA in passing (302 ypg), sixth in total offense (465 ypg) and 14th in scoring (35.4 ppg). Carr won two OVC championships with Tennessee State.
