Biography

Wes Fritz joined the University of Houston Football program as its Director of Personnel/Pro Liaison in December 2023. The 2026 season will be his third with the program and second as General Manager. In his first three recruiting cycles he has done that with 40+ Cougars from the greater Houston-area. Since his first recruiting class in 2024 which featured 63 newcomers, the 2026 class featured just 38 newcomers while returning 68 Cougars from the 2025 roster. Fritz came to Houston after spending eight seasons as Tulane's Director of Player Personnel where he managed all recruiting events as well as maintained the Green Wave's recruiting database and recruiting board. Behind Fritz's recruiting efforts, Tulane saw multiple players selected in the NFL Draft in three of the last four years (2020, 2021, 2023). Between 2020-23, the Green Wave placed 10 players in the NFL including 2023 third round NFL Draft selections Tyjae Spears (81st pick) and Dorian Williams (91st pick). Fritz came to Tulane after serving the 2014-15 seasons at Georgia Southern in a similar capacity under head coach Willie Fritz. Before earning his master's degree from Georgia Southern, Fritz received his bachelor's degree from Sam Houston State University in Kinesiology in 2013. At Sam Houston, Fritz was a two-year letterwinner for the Bearkats in basketball.
