MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Middle Tennessee head football coach Derek Mason announced today the hiring of Vernon Hargreaves as the program's new defensive line coach.

"Vernon Hargreaves is one of the best I have been around," said Mason. "He is a veteran coach who is a true student of the game and has developed several players that went on to play in the NFL. What we get from him is a tireless recruiter, experience, and an Xs and Os guy who can develop players for the next level."

Hargreaves arrives in Murfreesboro after four years as the defensive line coach at Howard while also adding special teams coordinator to his list of duties the last three seasons.
