Back in early February, we highlighted the unique interview process Eastern Michigan head coach Chris Creighton held for potential defensive line coaches.
The process led to the hire of Southeast Missouri State (FCS) defensive line coach Jerone Steckel as their new interior defensive line coach, and likely continued as they looked to fill an opening at defensive ends coach as well.
Creighton and the Eagles recently announced the addition of Bo Alexander to fill that final defensive opening on staff working with the defensive ends.
Alexander spent the past two seasons as a graduate assistant under Pat Narduzzi and the defensive staff at Pitt where they had a top eight rushing defense in college football last season.
A former standout at Kent State, who appeared in 40 games, Alexander helped coach the linebackers as a defensive graduate assistant for his alma mater during the 2020 season.
His coaching career started at the small college level in 2018 as defensive line coach / video coordinator at Beloit (D-III - WI).
