BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana head football coach Kevin Wilson announced today that Seth Littrell will join the Hoosiers staff as offensive coordinator. Littrell arrives in Bloomington from the University of Arizona, where his 2011 offense ranked third nationally in passing offense (370.8) and 15th in total offense (465.2).

Current assistant coach Kevin Johns will serve as assistant offensive coordinator and take on the responsibilities of quarterbacks coach.

"We received a large amount of interest from a talented pool of applicants, but I kept coming back to Seth," Wilson said. "Seth is one of the most innovative, young coordinators in the country. We are excited to incorporate his successful background with the spread passing game into our offense. We welcome Seth, his wife, Becca, and his son, Tripp, to the the Hoosier football family."

Littrell spent three seasons in Tucson (2009-11) after a four-year stint as running backs coach at Texas Tech University. He has coached in seven bowl games, played in two and was team captain on the University of Oklahoma's 2000 national championship team. A four-year letterwinner at Oklahoma, Littrell rushed for 231 yards and seven touchdowns in 1999 and finished his career with 11 rushing scores.

"This is a great opportunity to work with a great offensive mind in Kevin Wilson," Littrell said. "I am very excited to be at an unbelievable university in the prestigious Big Ten Conference."

Apparently Coach Littrell has been credited with piecing together a good offense the last two seasons. Indiana is not a powerhouse Big Ten Football school, but its a great place to land an OC gig and continue to gain experience and make a name for himself in his conference and across the nation. He is up and coming and he will be considered for a Head Coach position in the not too distant future.
