One thing new UTEP football coach Dana Dimel likes about the staff he is unveiling is its diversity, its mixture of experience and youth.
That was on good display with the introduction of secondary/safeties coach Keith Burns, director of player development/high school relations Barrick Nealy and wide receivers coach Scotty Ohara Tuesday afternoon.
Burns brings more than three decades of experience including head coach at Tulsa (2000-02) and a position coach with the Oakland Raiders, Ohara has been coaching for 12 years while Nealy, taking over a newly created position, played four years in the Canadian Football League ending in 2010 and is returning to football while staying in the business of mentoring young people.
