After two seasons away from college football, Tom Herman is back.
The former Texas head coach has been hired as the coach at Florida Atlantic, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel. Brett McMurphy of the Action Network was first to report on the move.
Herman spent the 2021 season as an offensive analyst for the NFL’s Bears, and did not coach in ’22. He previously spent four seasons with Texas, with the Longhorns finishing the ’20 season at 7-3 and winning the Alamo Bowl.
Herman’s best year in Austin came in 2018, when the Longhorns finished 10-4 and won the Sugar Bowl over Georgia to finish No.
