Former Citadel great and ex-South Carolina assistant coach Everette Sands has been named running backs coach at the University of Texas-San Antonio, the Conference USA school announced Tuesday.
Sands will work for UTSA coach Frank Wilson, a former LSU assistant who was named the Roadrunners’ new head coach in January. UTSA was 3-9 last season under former coach Larry Coker.
“Adding a coach the caliber of Everette Sands to our staff is a coup for UTSA,” Wilson said. “He is a veteran coach who has a history of developing NFL-caliber running backs. He has a wealth of knowledge and expertise and I can’t wait to see him get to work with his position group with the return of 1,000-yard back Jarveon Williams and a host of quality depth.
