Joe Moorhead — former Penn State offensive coordinator and new Mississippi State head coach — told reporters Thursday that he wouldn’t pursue Nittany Lion recruits.
But coaches? Well, in an effort to fill out his first FBS staff, that’s a different story.
Charles Huff, Penn State’s running backs coach and special teams coordinator, is set to join Moorhead’s staff in Starkville, according to multiple reports. The Athletic’s Chris Vannini first reported the news. Huff will be Mississippi State’s co-offensive coordinator, running backs coach and assistant head coach. But Moorhead said in his Thursday press conference that he will call the plays.
