Penn State replaces offensive coordinator after one season
January 9, 2021 GMT
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) Penn State has hired Mike Yurcich as offensive coordinator, replacing Kirk Ciarrocca after one year with the former Texas and Ohio State assistant.
Yurcich was offensive coordinator at Texas last season, but found himself out after the school fired coach Tom Herman last week.
Yurcich was passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach for one season at Ohio State in 2019 after six productive seasons at Oklahoma State.
Yurcich’s offenses have averaged 6.49 yards per play, first among offensive coordinator’s since 2013.
Ciarrocca was hired away from Minnesota after last season by Nittany Lions coach James Franklin to replace offensive coordinator Ricky Rahne, who left to become head coach at Old Dominion.
