Hanson spent one year as the senior offensive analyst. He is the husband of Oklahoma recruiting director and assistant athletic director Annie Hanson.
Both Zach and Annie briefly worked at North Carolina together before Annie was hired on at Oklahoma. Zach had a short stint as a full-time assistant coach with his alma mater Kansas State before getting the call from the Sooners.
Tulsa head coach Philip Montgomery had this to say about the addition to his staff: “In talking with Lincoln [Riley], I know he hates to see Zach leave but [is] excited for him to get back on the field and do what he loves to do. Zach will be an asset to our program and will do an outstanding job with our offensive line.”
