Via the official site, Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury has promoted former director of player personnel, Emmett Jones, to one of the two vacant offensive assistant positions:
Texas Tech Head Football Coach Kliff Kingsbury has announced the promotion of Emmett Jones as an offensive assistant coach. Jones has served as Tech’s Director of Player Development since February 2015. Jones’ specific position duties will be announced at a later time.
“Coach Jones is an extremely hard working individual and already an integral part of our staff,” Kingsbury said. “He will be a great addition to our offensive unit and the relationships he’s built around the state will be invaluable moving forward.”
As mentioned earlier today, it seemed like all but a lock that Jones would have one of the positions. One down, four to go.
