Rich Rodriguez, a well-known figure in the college football coaching world, is set to return to West Virginia as the head coach, marking his second stint at his alma mater. The announcement was made by the athletic director, Wren Baker, after Rodriguez's successful tenure at Jacksonville State.
Rodriguez's return comes 17 years after his abrupt departure from West Virginia to take on the head coaching role at Michigan, a move that did not pan out as expected. Now, he steps in to replace Neal Brown, who was relieved of his duties after a 6-6 season.
