Missouri hires Derek Dooley as new offensive coordinator and QBs coach

On Friday afternoon, Missouri announced that it had finally found its replacement for offensive coordinator Josh Heupel, who left after the regular season to take the head coaching job at UCF.

Over the course of the last few weeks, we had heard quite a few names associated with the job. The official hire ... was not one of the names anyone had mentioned.

University of Missouri Head Football Coach Barry Odom has added veteran coach Derek Dooley to his staff, as announced today. Dooley, who has been part of record-setting offenses all throughout his 20-year coaching career – including six years of collegiate head coaching experience, will take over as Mizzou’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
