A promotion in 2015 was quickly followed by a demotion a year later for Todd Fitch. Not long after the latter went down, Fitch left town for a fresh start to his coaching career.
Friday, Skip Holtz announced that Fitch has been hired as his offensive coordinator at Louisiana Tech. Additionally, Fitch will serve as the wide receivers coach for the Bulldogs.
Fitch had spent the past three seasons at Boston College, first as receivers coach and passing-game coordinator in 2013-14 before being promoted to offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in 2015. However, BC head coach Steve Addazio announced in mid-January that he had hired Scott Loeffler as his coordinator, effectively demoting Fitch back to receivers coach.
Three weeks later, Fitch headed south.
“I am excited to be joining a staff that is part of growing something special,” Fitch said. “This coaching staff has laid the groundwork for a program that has already done some great things and is building a foundation for future success. I am excited for the opportunity to be on a staff with Skip Holtz again and to keep growing this program.”
In addition to BC, Fitch had also been a coordinator at East Carolina and USF. Holtz was the head coach at both of those stops.
