Illinois’ former head coach will reportedly be the defensive coordinator for the Houston Texans’ new regime under David Culley. Culley, a former Ravens assistant, was named head coach for the Texans on Thursday.
The #Texans should have some key coaches finalized today, including: Tim Kelly as OC, Lovie Smith as DC and Pep Hamilton as QBs coach. https://t.co/afEHG97Kz9— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) January 29, 2021
The move will likely be official Friday afternoon.
Smith was fired by Illinois in December after five losing seasons and one bowl appearance in Champaign. As we all know, AD Josh Whitman hired Bret Bielema for the job, as Bielema has now finished putting together his new coaching staff.
