Coaching Change
Owens is returning, Williams heading to Maryland.
UAB: Source tells FootballScoop Richard Owens is expected to join Bill Clark’s staff coaching offensive line. Owens, who spent the 2018 season at his alma mater (Louisville), had joined Tyson Helton’s staff at Western Kentucky as tight ends coach. This will be Owens’ second stint at UAB where he also coached from 2012-14. He also coached offensive line at South Alabama.
Maryland: Source tells FootballScoop UAB linebackers coach Brian Williams is expected to join Mike Locksley’s staff.

Would love for Pat Bastien to come back. Very good young recruiter and coach.
Losing Brian Williams is big, though. He is a heckuva recruiter. His connections in Miami, and Florida in general, were critical. Hope they can find a way to keep that from drying up.

UAB: Per source, UAB has moved defensive coordinator David Reeves, who had been coaching the defensive backs, to linebackers coach and corners coach Blake Shrader will now coach the safeties, and defensive analyst Jerron Simpson has been promoted to corners coach.

Some WKU football staff news:
TEs coach Richard Owens has been hired as UAB's O-line coach.
Former WKU support staffer Zach Lankford will become Tyson Helton's TEs coach.
