Central Michigan football is reportedly promoting running backs coach and recruiting coordinator Gino Guidugli to offensive coordinator, replacing the retiring Morris Watts.
Guidugli, a former University of Cincinnati quarterback, will also serve as CMU quarterbacks coach while stepping away from his running backs coach duties.
The news was first reported Thursday afternoon by Chris Vannini, the managing editor of coachingsearch.com.
Guidugli, now 33 years old, played at Cincinnati from 2001 through ’04 and when he left he held Bearcat records for pass attempts (1,556), completions (880), passing yards (11,453), touchdown passes (78), and total offense (11,661).
