Former University of Tennessee at Chattanooga All-Southern Conference left tackle Chris Harr, who worked as a student assistant coach in 2012, has been hired to coach the Mocs’ tight ends.
Head coach Russ Huesman hired Harr on Friday, filling a spot on UTC’s offensive staff created by running backs coach Thomas Brown’s departure this week for Georgia State.
Harr said he thought he had a chance to join the staff, “but I wasn’t sure if it was going to be on the defensive side of the ball or what. When Thomas left, a position opened up, and I’m really excited about this opportunity.”
While finishing his undergraduate work, Harr helped offensive line coach Alex Atkins last fall. Huesman said Harr’s primary responsibility will be tight ends, but he may also assist with tackles. Harr played tight end as a freshman before starting for three seasons at left tackle.
