Jeff Tedford officially steps down as Fresno State football head coach

In an official news conference Friday morning, Fresno State football head coachJeff Tedford announced that he will be stepping down as the team’s head coach, following his third season with the team.

Tedford’s move is due to heart complications that reappeared midseason when he noticed symptoms that were not normal.

After having a procedure done a few weeks ago and consulting with physicians, he was counseled to have another procedure done, which will take place in January.

Back in 2013, Tedford had issues with his heart that resulted in him taking a leave of absence as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator.
