Born on September 10, 1962, in College Station, Texas, Larry Fedora began his football journey as a wide receiver at Austin College from 1981 to 1984, where he was part of the 1981 NAIA championship team. He earned academic All-America honors in 1983 and honorable mention All-America in 1983 and 1984. Fedora launched his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Austin College in 1986, followed by a four-year stint as an assistant coach at Garland High School from 1987 to 1990. His collegiate coaching career commenced in 1991 at Baylor, where he coached tight ends, wide receivers, and running backs until 1996. He then served at Air Force from 1997 to 1998, focusing on the passing game and wide receivers.
Fedora’s impact grew significantly as an offensive coordinator. At Middle Tennessee from 1999 to 2001, his offense averaged 424 yards of total offense, 181 rushing yards, and 31 points per game, setting 43 school records. He moved to Florida for three seasons, serving as run game coordinator (2002), perimeter game coordinator (2003), and offensive coordinator (2004), leading the Gators to top rankings in several SEC offensive categories. From 2005 to 2007, as offensive coordinator at Oklahoma State, Fedora’s teams consistently improved, averaging over 30 points per game in his last two seasons. His success led to his first head coaching role at Southern Miss in 2008, where he accumulated a 34-19 record, including a 12-2 season in 2011, and guided the team to four consecutive bowl appearances. His 2011 team won the Conference USA championship and ranked 17th nationally in total offense.
From 2012 to 2018, Fedora was the head coach at North Carolina, where he notched 45 wins. His 2015 season was particularly notable, leading the Tar Heels to an 11-1 regular season, their first ACC Championship Game appearance, and a school-record 11 consecutive wins. That year, he was named the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Coach of the Year and was a finalist for the Bear Bryant National Coach of the Year Award. Under his leadership, North Carolina’s offense consistently set school records for points and total yards. After his time at UNC, he served as an analyst at Texas in 2019 and returned to Baylor in 2020 as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. In 2022, Fedora made a move to professional football, serving as the head coach and general manager for the New Orleans Breakers of the USFL, achieving a 6-4 record.
