Another hire. Another Boise State assistant.

On Sunday, Auburn athletics announced that Bryan Harsin has hired Brad Bedell to become the Tigers’ tight end coach.

“Tight end play is a critical part of our offensive attack and Coach Bedell brings a unique perspective to what we want to do with that position group,” Harsin said. “Brad has coached with me at a couple different places and is a relationship driven coach with six years of NFL playing experience, making him an exceptional recruiter. His versatility as a coach and strong recruiting ability make him a great fit for the Auburn football family.”

Bedell spent the last four seasons working for Harsin and the Broncos as their offensive line coach, helping mentor five first-team All Mountain West Conference players.

“I’m really excited to be a part of a tremendous football program like Auburn, that has had great tradition and success over the years,” Bedell said. “Working with Coach Harsin at Boise State and the culture he created is something special and I look forward to being a part of that at Auburn. The quality of young men in this program has me excited. I can’t wait to get started.”
