Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo has reversed course on a major staff change just since this weekend after the team lost to the Air Force, 23-3.

Two days after Niumatalolo fired offensive coordinator Ivin Jasper, the OC has been reinstated after being fired postgame Saturday. He will coach QBs. Niumatalolo will call plays, Kareem Copeland of the Washington Post reported. Niumatalolo said he talked to AD Chet Gladchuck about bringing him back.

Navy finished with just 68 yards of offense and 6 first downs in the loss. The Midshipmen’s triple-option attack is known for its big rushing numbers, but Navy gained just 36 yards on the ground Saturday. The Midshipmen are coming off of a 2020 season in which they ranked No. 52 in rushing offense, No. 121 in scoring offense and No. 124 in total offense.
