Coach Harsin “We’re Coming Home”

It's official Boise State has a new head coach: Bryan Harsin. Let's take a look at how Coach Harsin has come full circle with Boise State.

Coach Harsin, "We're Coming Home"

Harsin graduated from Capitol High School and walked on to Boise State were he played quarterback from '95-'99.

He began his coaching career at Eastern Oregon University, where he was the quarterback and running back coach for the 2000 season.

Harsin became a Graduate Assistant for Boise State in 2001, then transitioned to the Tight Ends coach from 2002-2005.

In 2006, Harsin was promoted to Offensive Coordinator and Quarterbacks coach for BSU. During his tenure, the Broncos had a 61-5 record, two undefeated seasons, and two BCS bowl victories!

In 2011, Harsin left Boise for a co-offensive coordinator position with the University of Texas (he was the primary play-caller) as well as the quarterbacks coach for the longhorns during the 2011-2012 seasons.

Last year, Harsin was announced as the head coach for the Arkansas State Red Wolves.

Today, Coach Harsin returns to Boise with an awesome new gig: Head Coach for the Boise State Broncos!! Here's what he had to say:

"We're coming home.[...] One of the hardest decisions we ever made was leaving Boise. We did that so I could become a better coach, so I could one day have the opportunity to return as head coach -- that day has arrived.[...] I embrace the success but won't rest on it. We will build this program every day with a sense of urgency."

Congrats Coach Harsin, welcome back to Boise!
