ASU lands assistant for RBs

Arkansas State University's offensive coaching staff is complete.

The Red Wolves named Rashad Jackson running backs coach Thursday, filling the final open offensive job on a coaching staff that has replaced seven of 10 assistant coaches in the past 10 days.

Jackson will replace former running backs coach and special teams coordinator Norval McKenzie, who took the same job at the University of Louisville. McKenzie was one of four ASU assistant coaches to accept a job elsewhere since Monday morning.

"[Jackson] was absolutely the guy [new ASU offensive coordinator Keith Heckendorf] stood on the table for from day one," ASU Coach Blake Anderson said Thursday.
