University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football coach Russ Huesman announced the additions of Adam Ross and John Srofe to his staff Monday afternoon.

Ross will be the new offensive line coach, while Srofe takes over as the video coordinator and defensive quality control coach.

Those additions give the program six new staff members. Already reported were defensive line coach Carey Bailey, wide receivers coach Rob Spence and director of football operations Kadeem Wise.

Huesman also announced that second-year assistant coach Rod West, who coaches cornerbacks and “dimes,” will assume the position of recruiting coordinator. In that role West will take over for Will Healy, who took the Austin Peay head coaching job in January.

“Rod is going to do a great job for us as recruiting coordinator,” Huesman said in a news release. “We have had a number of top-ranked recruiting classes over the last few years, and he will lead our efforts as a staff to continue to bring top talent to Chattanooga.”
