 BSU's current interim head football coach Brent Bolte will remain interim head coach of the Beavers for the coming season if former head coach Jeff Tesh does not win an appeal to get his job back. BSU athletic director Tracy Dill confirmed that to Lakeland News Tonight. Dill says Bolte and his staff did a tremendous job with the team this past season and his priority was to ensure their return. Dill says he will be required to perform a national search for the job at some point but when that search takes place is still to be determined. Bolte and his staff led the team to a 9-3 record and a win in the mineral water bowl this past season. Bolte was named interim coach two days before the first game of the season after long time head coach Jeff Tesh was placed on a leave of absence. The school relieved Tesh of his coaching duties on November 7th. Tesh is currently appealing that decision and there is no word on when a ruling on his appeal will be made.
