Every year, a dozen or more FBS college football coaches are fired and replaced with younger, smart, talented guys.
In some cases, they’re so young that they could still easily be playing in a professional league.
This year, Utah State interim head coach Nate Dreiling (34) is currently the youngest person in charge of an FBS program, followed by Arizona State coach Kenny Dillingham and UTEP coach Scotty Walden.
Here are the rest of the youngest coaches in college football.
