The Akron Zips have reportedly found their next head coach, looking towards the West Coast to find an old friend in Joe Moorhead, who is currently Oregon’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
The news was first reported by Fox Sports’ Bruce Feldman on Wednesday afternoon, and later confirmed by the university via press release.
“We are committed to fielding a championship-caliber football program at The University of Akron and I’m confident we have found the right leader at the right time to make good on that promise,” said University of Akron President Gary L. Miller.
