Ohio State promotes James Laurinaitis to linebackers coach, making him a full-time member of the Buckeyes’ coaching staff.
Ohio State promoted Laurinaitis to linebackers coach on Thursday, making him one of their 10 full-time assistant coaches one year after initially hiring Laurinaitis as a graduate assistant. Laurinaitis is signing a two-year contract with the Buckeyes.Jim Knowles will continue in his role as Ohio State’s defensive coordinator, but Laurinaitis will now be the linebackers’ primary position coach after Knowles handled that responsibility for his first two years with the Buckeyes.
His promotion comes after Ohio State’s defense was one of the best in the country in Laurinaitis’ first year back in the program, ranking second in the FBS in points allowed per game and third in yards allowed per game . Laurinaitis has also drawn positive feedback from recruits and can play a larger role in Ohio State’s recruiting efforts now that he is one of the Buckeyes’ 10 traveling assistant coaches.
