SEATTLE -- Washington has promoted Bob Gregory to defensive coordinator, making this the third time in his coaching career that he will be in charge of running a defense.
Gregory's promotion Monday came after Pete Kwiatkowski surprisingly left Washington in January to take the defensive coordinator position on Steve Sarkisian's staff at Texas.
Gregory has been Washington's inside linebackers coach for the past seven seasons. He was previously a defensive coordinator at California from 2002 to 2009 and at Boise State in 2001.
The position change for Gregory also led to additional changes on the Huskies' staff.
