FAU Dismisses Head Coach Tom Herman After Two Seasons

Herman's departure follows a disappointing 6-16 record and recent overtime loss to Temple.

Herman was hired by FAU in 2023 and has been let go with a 6-16 overall record.
FAU's recent overtime loss to Temple left the team with a 2-8 record and winless in conference play.
Chad Lunsford, current special teams coordinator and tight ends coach, will serve as interim head coach.
Herman is owed a buyout of over $4 million, with three years remaining on his contract.
Previously, Herman had successful stints at Houston and Texas, but struggled to replicate that success at FAU.
