AJC reporting Fritz is the guy

[bishopbee]

Yes, but he wasn't a head coach leaving.

And it was before the era of the portal and "early" signing period

Didn't Mendenhall do that before taking the UVA job?

I believe you are correct. There's one I didn't recall. there are probably others. LOL. Was that before early signing period was instituted? Regardless, in the current wild wild west transfer market and early signing period era, I'd be surprised if a "transferring" head coach would be given the chance to coach in his old teams bowl game because of the timing.

Scott Frost, going from UCF to Nebraska after the 2017 season. Coached UCF in the 2018 Peach Bowl as a condition of his agreement to coach the Huskers.

AJC was wrong - or jumped the gun, perhaps.

Let's lock this and focus our firepower on the remaining threads.

Just my $.02.

That turned out swell for both of them didn't it?

I’ll lock this for a bit. It’s confusing—people might think there’s an AJC update
