After returning to Fresno State in 2022, when Kalen DeBoer left for Washington, Jeff Tedford inherited a talented 10-win squad helmed by star QB Jake Haener and a fleet of talented players. Even though things started poorly, with a 1-4 record and Jake Haener potentially out for the season, the team came together brilliantly to reel off 9 straight wins to capture their first conference championship since 2018 and a dominant LA Bowl victory over Washington State to send the seniors out on top. Now, Tedford must reload last year’s Mountain West Champion team without Haener, Jalen Moreno-Cropper, Jordan Mims, David Perales, and a host of others.
