Enough of the delusional talk about getting a Big Name guy...let’s look at guys that would come here if asked.
A disciple of the noted “Air Raid” offensive attack, Mumme adopted this scheme in his first season with Nevada to much success. The Wolf Pack ranked 32nd in the nation and was second in the Mountain West in passing offense, averaging 270.4 yards per game through the air. The Air Raid attack really got going during league play when the Pack increased its production to 307.4 yards per game, tops in the conference.
Under Mumme’s direction in 2017, Nevada quarterback Ty Gangi became one of the top quarterbacks in the Mountain West. Gangi garnered an All-MW honorable mention after leading the league in touchdown passes (23) during the conference season. In total Gangi threw 25 touchdown passes on the year, which ranked in the top 30 nationally, and totaled over 2,700 yards through the air.
Mumme also developed a couple of key receiving targets in the Air Raid scheme in All-MW second team performer Wyatt Demps and freshman All-America McLane Mannix. Demps posted one of the finest seasons by a Pack receiver in recent memory, leading the conference with 11 receiving touchdowns and finishing second in receptions with 67. Demps nearly notched a 1,000-yard receiving season as well, totaling 908 yards which ranked in the top 45 in the nation. Mannix on the other hand snagged 57 catches for 778 yards, notched six touchdowns and averaged 13.6 yards per catch. His 57 receptions were tied for second among freshmen wide receivers, he was fifth in receiving yards and fourth in receiving touchdowns.
Mumme came to the Pack after four seasons as the head coach of LaGrange College in Georgia. He played quarterback at the University of Kentucky under his father, Hal Mumme, the noted architect of the pass-happy and up-tempo Air Raid system.
Mumme arrived in Reno with 14 years of coaching experience under his belt, including 10 as an offensive coordinator at New Mexico State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, McMurry University, Davidson College and LaGrange College. In his coaching career, he has guided a top-10 passing offense in the nation 11 times, including three times as the top passing offense in the nation and once as the top team in total offense.
Mumme’s offense led the USA South conference in passing for the fourth straight year in 2016, averaging more than 360 yards per game. The Panthers led NCAA Division III in passing yards per game in 2013 and were sixth in 2014. In 2016 they finished fifth in the nation in passing.
Mumme’s offenses at Davidson broke numerous school records. Quarterback Jonathan Carkhuff broke the school passing record and was sixth in the nation, while receiver Lanny Funsten became an All-American under Mumme, setting a single-season school record with 100 receptions.
In two seasons at McMurry, Mumme’s War Hawks were second in Division III in passing yards and led all of college football with 45 touchdown passes. His offense produced 6,699 passing yards and 71 touchdowns, driving the team’s first winning season in 10 years.
Mumme has coached 10 all-conference quarterbacks and receivers. Mumme also coached All-American quarterback Martin Hankins at Southeastern Louisiana. Hankins threw for 7,777 yards and 65 touchdowns and was a finalist for the Walter Payton Award, the Heisman Trophy for the NCAA Division I Football Championship Series.
His 2003 offense at SELU led the nation in both passing offense and total offense. The 2004 Lions offense also led the nation in passing under Mumme’s direction. Mumme holds a degree in human environmental studies with a minor in business from the University of Kentucky and also earned a master’s in business administration from Southeastern Louisiana University. His wife, Fayedra, is a licensed professional counselor.
