ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. --- UNM Head Football Coach Bob Davie has announced that Dan Carrel, who has spent the past four seasons on the staff at the University of Houston, has been named as the new outside linebackers coach. He replaces Archie McDaniel, who was named co-defensive coordinator at Texas State.
Carrel had been with the University of Houston since 2015 when he joined the program as a defensive graduate assistant with the outside linebackers, a position he held for two seasons before earning a promotion to full-time outside linebackers coach.
While with the Cougars, Carrel has coached in four bowl games in four seasons, including a New Year's Six Bowl Game as Houston won the 2015 Peach Bowl, 38-24 over Florida State to cap a 13-1 season for Houston.
