HCU coaching staff nears completion; other Non-FBS assistant coaching updates
Recent head coaching changes at Non-FBS schools have resulted in numerous assistant coaching changes at teams throughout all three NCAA Divisions in Texas, including Houston Christian, ACU, UTRGV, Midwestern State, and American Southwest Conference champion Hardin-Simmons.
Houston Christian opened the New Year with a search for a head coach. In the 12 days since the calendar year changed, the Huskies have promoted Jason Bachtel to head coach following a national search and has nearly completed a coaching staff with only two coaches returning from last year’s staff under head coach Braxton Harris, who left for Campbell.
According to sources, Jonathan Petty will be promoted to associate head coach and move to coach the safeties after coaching the cornerbacks last season. Stoney Patton will return as wide receivers coach.
