A forgotten man in the success of FIU Football

There’s no two ways about it.

On the field, Ron Turner’s time at the helm of FIU football was a disappointment. He went 10-30 in a little under four seasons as FIU’s head coach.

Ron Turner resigned from his position at FIU four games into the 2016 season.

However, he didn’t leave the proverbial cabinets bare for Butch Davis, when he took over in November of 2016.

Turner’s final two recruiting classes boast multiple starters, or key contributors for the past two seasons of FIU football. Both of which yielded bowl appearances and a combined 17 wins under Davis.
