(STATS) – Being a head coach hasn’t been a part of Randy Sanders’ distinguished resume, but he appears to be headed home to change that.
Multiple reports say ETSU will be naming Sanders as its coach. He would succeed Carl Torbush, who retired on Dec. 8, three years after resurrecting a Buccaneers program that disbanded following the 2003 season.
The 52-year-old is a native of Morristown, Tennessee, and played for and coached at the University of Tennessee. Most recently, he was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterback coach at Florida State, where Jimbo Fisher recently departed as coach to take over at Texas A&M.
Sanders, a college assistant for 28 years, has coached on two national championship-winning staffs – Tennessee in 1998 and Florida State in 2013. He also was an assistant at Kentucky.
ETSU went 11-22 in Torbush’s three seasons, including 4-7 overall and 2-6 in the Southern Conference this year.
