KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — New Tennessee football coach Josh Heupel is bringing three offensive assistants with him from the UCF staff.
Heupel, who coached UCF from 2018-20, made the announcement Monday.
Tennessee’s offensive coordinator will be Alex Golesh, who was UCF’s co-offensive coordinator and tight ends coach in 2020. He previously spent four seasons as Iowa State’s tight ends coach/recruiting coordinator.
Quarterbacks coach Joey Halzle and offensive line coach Glen Elarbee held the same positions at UCF. Both also used to work with Heupel at Missouri.
Elarbee was UCF’s offensive line coach from 2018-20 and also filled that role at Middle Tennessee, Houston, Arkansas State and Missouri. Halzle worked as an offensive analyst at UCF in 2019 before becoming quarterbacks coach in 2020.
