MURFREESBORO – Middle Tennessee Head Coach Rick Stockstill announced today the hiring of Tony Franklin as the team's offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Franklin, who served as the OC at MT in 2009, takes over for Buster Faulkner.
Franklin, who was previously the Cal Bears offensive coordinator the past three years, is considered one of the top offensive minds in the business as his offense has ranked in the top 10 nationally the last four years in passing, twice in total offense and twice in scoring.
Franklin's hiring is pending full approval by the Tennessee Board of Regents.
