Good news for Weber State University football fans, as the Standard announces this morning that WSU officials have retained a new coach, to fill Coach Ronnie Mac's now vacant coaching slot. Here's the lede, folks:
Read the full Roy Burton story here:OGDEN — John L. Smith’s career is coming full circle.
Smith, who played linebacker and quarterback for Weber State College from 1968 to 1971 and began his coaching career as a grad assistant at the school a year later, will be officially announced today as the ninth head coach of the Wildcats.
Just as it did with the hiring of Smith’s predecessor, Ron McBride, Weber State has reached back for a coach with name recognition and a previous tenure as the head coach at another in-state school.
