Ryan Hybl Leaves Oklahoma After 17 Years for Georgia Tech Golf Job

17-year Oklahoma coach Ryan Hybl is leaving to become Georgia Tech’s fifth men’s golf head coach, but will stay on through next week’s NCAA Championship with the No. 16 Sooners.
51 tournament titles, 15 straight NCAA Championship appearances and the 2017 national title made Hybl one of college golf’s most successful coaches before the move to Atlanta.
Hybl, 44, said the decision was driven largely by a return to Georgia, where he and his wife are from and where they want to be closer to family after 17 years away.
The move follows retirements at both programs: Bruce Heppler is stepping down at Georgia Tech, while Oklahoma named former Oklahoma State player Jonathan Moore as Hybl’s replacement.
The switch also closes off a potential return to Hybl’s alma mater Georgia, where retiring coach Chris Haack will be succeeded by assistant and former player Mookie DeMoss.

Can the new coach revive a legendary program living in the shadow of its iconic history?

After his alma mater snubbed him, is this return to Georgia a homecoming or a reckoning?
