SAN MARCOS - Texas State head football coach Everett Withers announced Tuesday that Brett Elliott has been named the quarterbacks coach for the Bobcats.
Elliott returns to Texas State after serving as the quarterbacks coach at Mississippi State last season and the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Texas State in 2016.
Last season, Elliott called the offensive plays for the Bulldogs when they upset Louisville and former Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson, 31-27, in the TaxSlayer Bowl. True freshman Keytaon Thompson made his first career start in the bowl game and completed 11 of 20 passes for 127 yards, and rushed for 147 yards and three touchdowns on 27 carries.
