After only three seasons, Fresno State is back on the market for a head coach. Jeff Tedford resigned last week due to his health, leaving the Bulldogs in a position to search for their fifth coach since 1980.
So where does Fresno State go from here? Last time out, former athletic director Jim Bartko ran the search and selected Tedford – a former Bulldog with strong ties to the community. Tedford also came back to Fresno under the premise that is wouldn’t be a stepping stone job to another gig that paid more. He signed on for the long haul and would have been happy making Fresno State his last stop.
This time around, Athletic director Terry Tumey is left with a decision to make: Will he hire a coach with previous experience in Fresno, or will he look outside the Fresno State sphere and bring in someone who has never been a Bulldog before?
