Former Vols’ interim head coach announces retirement

San Diego State head coach Brady Hoke announced his retirement on Monday.

He will coach the Aztecs in the final two regular-season games this season.

“I am proud of what we accomplished at San Diego State,” Hoke said. “I am grateful to all the great student-athletes I’ve had the chance to work with, molding them into men, husbands, fathers and pillars in the community. I will always cherish my time leading this program. I’d also like to thank the wonderful staff I’ve worked with and wish them the best in the future.”

Hoke served as the Vols’ defensive line coach in 2017. He was interim head coach for the final two games in 2017 after head coach Butch Jones was relieved of his duties.

During his career, Hoke served as head coach at Ball State (2003-08), San Diego State (2009-10, 2020-23) and Michigan (2011-14).

Hoke lost to LSU and Vanderbilt as interim head coach at Tennessee.
