Taylor Embree, son of Jon Embree, among six new coaches hired by CU Buffs football coach Karl Dorrell

A dozen days after he was hired, Karl Dorrell has completed his inaugural CU Buffs football coaching staff.

The university announced Friday afternoon six new assistant coaches, three on each side of the ball, to pair with the four coaches retained from former coach Mel Tucker’s regime.

Dorrell is adding Taylor Embree, son of former Buffs player and coach Jon Embree, as his tight ends coach, as well as former Nebraska and Oregon State offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf as quarterbacks coach/passing game coordinator and Mitch Rodrigue as offensive line coach.

On the defensive side, the Buffs announced that former CU assistant Chris Wilson is returning to Boulder to coach the defensive line, where he’ll join Demetrice Martin (cornerbacks) and Brett Maxie (safeties).
