Davie adds Archie McDaniel, Perry Eliano to coaching staff

The University of New Mexico officially announced the hiring of three new assistant coaches to football coach Bob Davie’s staff on Saturday, including Calvin Magee to serve as offensive coordinator and running backs coach, which was previously reported, as well as Perry Eliano to serve as cornerbacks coach and special teams coordinator, and Archie McDaniel to coach outside and rush linebackers.

Most recently, Eliano was the associate head coach and defensive coordinator at Bowling Green University for the past two seasons. Last season, the BGU defense gave up an average of 506 yards per game and forced 24 turnovers (including 15 fumble recoveries) and scored two defensive touchdowns.
