Fresno State is attempting to take a step deeper into the real world of college football at the FBS level in hiring new offensive and defensive coordinators, upgrading the classification of the positions to make it possible to offer multiyear contracts.
Those were viewed as nonstarters under previous university and athletic administrations, but have gained steam during athletic director Jim Bartko’s first year-plus on the job.
Most coordinators in our conference have two-year deals and we’re very confident that it will happen (here). They deserve it.
“We’ve never had two-year contracts, but we’re working with campus to do it the right way,” Bartko said.
