A few days after offensive line coach Dave Christensen was dismissed, it was announced that A&M defensive tackle coach Mark Hagen was going to Indiana in the same role. Hagen served as the Aggies’ linebacker coach for two seasons before being moved to d-tackle coach before the 2015 season.
Hagen is an Indiana native and a former Hoosiers assistant, but it seems obvious he was pushed out at A&M. You do not willingly leave Texas A&M for an assistant’s job at Indiana.
Hagen is the third A&M assistant to have left the staff, following Christensen and offensive coordinator Jake Spavital.
