Jeff Tedford was the offensive coordinator at Fresno State and recruited me out of Stockdale High School in Bakersfield. There’s a lot of history there with the meetings and practices and all that – and for me, knowing Jeff, there couldn’t be a better choice to be the Bulldogs’ football coach right now with where he is in his career and where Fresno State is with its football program.
It’s a perfect fit. Fresno State definitely got it right.
It’s going to be good for the Valley. It’s going to be good for putting people back in the seats at Bulldog Stadium, good for bringing Valley kids back to Fresno State.
