K-State hires North Dakota State’s Courtney Messingham as new offensive coordinator

Kansas State football coach Chris Klieman is bringing four assistants with him from North Dakota State.

One of them will be the Wildcats’ new offensive coordinator.

Courtney Messingham, who guided North Dakota State to 41.7 points and 470.6 yards per game this season, was hired on Saturday as K-State’s new play-caller. He has 29 years of football coaching experience, including a stint in the Big 12 as offensive coordinator at Iowa State.

Messingham has served as offensive coordinator under Klieman for the past two seasons, and North Dakota State has gone 28-1 during that time. His other coaching stops include Truman State and Missouri State.
