Reno, 52, leaves Yale with a standout tenure that included leading the Bulldogs to their first FCS playoff appearance this past season. He finishes as Yale’s second-winningest coach, with a 83-49 record and five Ivy League titles.
In a heartfelt message, Reno expressed gratitude for the relationships and experiences built at Yale, saying the journey changed his life and his family’s lives. He thanked the players, coaches, and staff for their dedication to Yale Football during his 14 years at the helm.
Reno’s son, Dante Reno, who is Yale’s quarterback, shared a personal tribute on social media, calling his father his role model, best friend, and coach, and praising his impact over the past 15 years.
The university has not yet announced a replacement for the head coaching role, and this story is developing. Further details and updates will follow as Yale Basketball (note: correct to Yale Football)—this is a developing story.
