Seiler put in charge of collaborative effort for West Virginia’s special teams

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — On his first day of practice as West Virginia’s head coach, Neal Brown made official one final tweak to his coaching staff.

Inside linebackers coach Blake Seiler will also hold the title of special teams coordinator for the Mountaineers, though he will not be alone. Multiple assistants will be responsible for various aspects of the special teams unit.

  • Seiler (special teams coordinator, punt unit)
  • Al Pogue (punt return unit)
  • Jamile Addae (kickoff unit)
  • Chad Scott (kickoff return unit)
  • Matt Moore (field goal unit)
  • Jordan Lesley (field goal block unit)

Seiler spent the first decade of his coaching career at Kansas State, where Bill Snyder’s special teams units were typically among the most respected in the nation.
