NORMAL, Ill. – Illinois State head coach Brock Spack has added a veteran presence to his offensive coaching staff, as he announced the hiring of Tony Petersen as offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach for Redbird Football on Tuesday.
"I've known Tony for a while from his time working at Minnesota while I was a Purdue and he brings a wealth of experience to our offensive staff," Spack said. "He has done it all, as a national-championship winning coach in the FCS and at various levels of college football. I think those experiences will aid him in mentoring our players and staff as we move forward and look to get back to the playoffs and competing for championships.
