RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -The University of Richmond has selected former Spiders assistant Latrell Scott as the new coach of its football program.
Scott, 34, was introduced Tuesday at an afternoon news conference.
He becomes the 34th head coach in program history, and takes over at a time when Richmond football may be at its highest point.
The Spiders won the national championship for the first time last season, and advanced to the playoff quarterfinals this year, losing to Appalachian State in the closing seconds.
Scott has never been a head coach, but is widely respected as a dynamic recruiter.
He replaces Mike London, who left eight days ago to become head coach at Virginia.
