Overview
- CBS Sports first reported the plan, which the Coloradoan confirmed, and CSU has not formally announced staff additions.
- Summers was hired in January 2025 and served as interim head coach after Jay Norvell was fired in October.
- CSU finished 2-10 in 2025 with the defense near the bottom of the Mountain West, though it forced 16 turnovers despite extensive injuries.
- Summers’ track record at Western Kentucky includes a No. 9 national ranking in pass defense in 2024 and nine defensive touchdowns across 2022–23.
- Mora continues to assemble his staff as several previous assistants exit, and the retention is seen as maintaining continuity before the Rams join the Pac-12 in 2026.
