Hartline replaces Kevin Wilson, who left to take the head coaching job at Tulsa.

"Brian has been successful in every football capacity for which he has been engaged," Ohio State coach Ryan Day said in a statement.

He figures things out quickly and he is more than ready to now transition to offensive coordinator.
