The first-year head coach announced today that Mark Carney will serve as the wide receivers coach, Mike Elko will be the team's co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach and Adam Scheier will be the co-special teams coordinator and tight ends coach.

Carney spent the past season as the wide receivers coach at Richmond, where he helped the Spiders to the FCS National Championship. He was the quarterbacks coach for four seasons prior to that.

Elko was the defensive coordinator at Hofstra for the past three seasons. He worked with Clawson at Hofstra and Richmond.

Scheier spent the last seven seasons as the special teams coach at Lehigh. He also was responsible for the wide receivers position the last four years and spent three years overseeing running backs.
