According to multiple reports, Florida Atlantic coach Lane Kiffin has hired Baylor offensive coordinator Kendal Briles for the same position at FAU. The school did not officially announce the hire.
With Briles’ hire, Kiffin’s staff is slowly becoming more complete. Kiffin has already hired his brother and Ole Miss defensive line coach Chris Kiffin as his defensive coordinator. He’s also brought on Keynodo Hudson (USC analyst) as a defensive assistant and Charlie Weis Jr. (Alabama analyst) as an offensive assistant.
There are three holdovers from the previous staff under Charlie Partridge, but their job permanence will be, in part, determined by the coordinators.
