From the time Georgia Southern fans first caught wind of former head coach Jeff Monken’s departure to the United States Military Academy until Friday’s announcement that Willie Fritz will take the reins of Eagle football, it would be an understatement to say that there were quite a few different ideas as to where the program should be headed. Dozens of names made their way through the rumor mill as the coaching search wore on. Easily found within the fan base were factions devoted to keeping Georgia Southern’s flexbone triple option, die-hard fans who wanted to hire a former assistant to keep things “in the family,” and big dreamers who set their sights on nationally known names that have already had an impact at the FBS level.
