Mack Leftwich Named Texas Tech Offensive Coordinator

Florida State University has made significant coaching changes, hiring a new offensive coordinator and defensive coaches, while senior offensive analyst Gabe Fertitta has accepted an offensive coordinator role at Nicholls State after developing several All-ACC players during his tenure. The University of Utah is targeting Jason Beck from New Mexico as their next offensive coordinator, following a season where Utah struggled offensively, finishing with a 5-7 record. Texas Tech is set to hire Mack Leftwich, who previously excelled as the offensive coordinator at Texas State, to replace Zach Kittley after his move to Florida Atlantic. Leftwich's impressive track record includes leading Texas State to a sixth ranking in total offense nationally. Meanwhile, Houston is expected to announce Slade Nagle, LSU's tight ends coach, as their new offensive coordinator, bringing experience from his time at Tulane. These coaching transitions reflect a broader trend of reshuffling within college football programs as they seek to improve performance.
