Boise State football hires new assistant as Harsin shakes up roles, including special teams

The Boise State football team has filled its vacancy on the coaching staff, and with it, the Broncos’ coaching responsibilities have been shifted, too.

Jeff Schmedding, formerly the defensive coordinator at Eastern Washington, has been hired by Boise State as its co-special teams coordinator and outside linebackers coach.

Kent Riddle is no longer a special teams coordinator, as Schmedding will share responsibilities with running backs coach Lee Marks. Spencer Danielson, who was coaching STUD ends, will now be the defensive line coach. Defensive coordinator Andy Avalos will coach the inside linebackers.

Wide receivers coach Eric Kiesau is now the Broncos’ co-offensive coordinator with Zak Hill.
