“Glen Elarbee, our offensive line coach, coming with me from UCF,” Heupel said. “Glen and I have been together for the last five years. He was a part of turning around the offensive side of the football when we were at Missouri together, leading the league in offense our years there together. Went with me to UCF and is a phenomenal teacher of the game.

“You look at offensively what we’ve been able to do, the ability to protect the quarterback and the ability to run the football – I think all of our offenses were top 25 in rushing the last three years at UCF. He’s a guy that’s going to be great off the field, a tremendous recruiter and he’s a great technician. He has the ability to teach these guys at a really high level. We have already seen that with some of the stuff that we’ve been doing with our players here, their ability to comprehend and retention. They’re excited about what’s going on there.”
