Sean Lewis Appointed as New Head Coach for San Diego State
Former Colorado Offensive Coordinator Expected to Revitalize San Diego State's Football Program
- Sean Lewis, former offensive coordinator for Colorado, has been named as the new head coach of San Diego State, replacing Brady Hoke who announced his retirement earlier in November.
- Lewis, known for his high-tempo, dynamic offenses, previously led the Kent State football program from 2018-22 and helped Colorado's offense score 28.2 points per game this season, a significant improvement from the previous year.
- San Diego State, which had a disappointing 4-8 season this year, their worst since 2009, is looking to Lewis to revitalize their football program and generate excitement at their new Snapdragon Stadium.
- Lewis' appointment comes after a controversial season at Colorado where he was stripped of his play-calling duties mid-season by head coach Deion Sanders, who then handed over the role to former Giants head coach Pat Shurmur.
- Despite the controversy, Lewis is highly regarded in the industry and his appointment at San Diego State is seen as a positive move for the university's football program.
