Football Hires Burton as Safeties Coach

PHILADELPHIA – The Temple Owls have hired Nathan Burton as safeties coach. Burton comes to Temple following one season as the defensive quality control coach at North Carolina State.

Burton is no stranger to Temple head coach Geoff Collins. The two met when Burton was a walk-on at Georgia Tech in 1999 while Collins was graduate assistant with the Yellow Jackets.

"I've known Nathan as a player, a graduate assistant, and as a coach. He has always been an overachiever and a highly-motivated individual who will fit in perfectly on Broad Street," said Collins.
