Charlotte hires Michigan's Biff Poggi as football coach

Charlotte has hired Michigan associate head coach Biff Poggi as its next football coach.

Poggi was a longtime successful high school coach in Maryland with the Gilman School and St. Frances Academy before joining Jim Harbaugh's staff at Michigan.

He spent 19 seasons at Gilman School before taking over at St. Frances in Baltimore, which became a national power. Poggi sent star running back Blake Corum and other players to Michigan, which hired him in July 2021.

He replaces Will Healy, who Charlotte fired last month after a 1-7 start and a 15-24 overall record.
