G.J. Kinne is formally introduced as the new head coach of the Texas State football team.

"I chose to be at Texas State. I'm from Texas, that was important to me. I always knew if the right guy got this job, you better watch out. This place is unbelievable. You have 40,000 students, you got a river flowing through campus. We're the only Texas school in the Sun Belt. This place is really unbelievable, I'm just so fortunate to be here," Kinne said.
