zach kittley fau college football.

Florida Atlantic’s Zach Kittley is the youngest head coach in major college football this season. He’s 34. And his 6-foot-7 frame makes him stand out as well. Makes sense, since turning FAU back into a winner might be a tall order. Kittley is an anomaly in a whole bunch of ways. He hasn’t played football since high school. He freely acknowledges that he’s not the best coach in his own family; his father, a track coach with more championship rings than fingers and toes, has that distinction. And not only is he taking on the task of being a first-time head coach, he’s doing so while also calling FAU’s plays.
