Penn State OL coach Phil Trautwein to join SEC team in same role, per source
Penn State’s offensive line coach is off to the SEC.
Phil Trautwein is expected to be hired by the Florida Gators to be their offensive line coach, according to a source.
ESPN’s Pete Thamel first reported the news.
Trautwein is a Florida graduate who was a two-time all-SEC selection with the Gators and won two SEC and national titles with them in 2006 and 2008. He spent the last six seasons with the Nittany Lions after joining them from Boston College, where he spent two seasons as the offensive line coach.
The move out of Happy Valley is not an unexpected one for Trautwein. Penn State head coach Matt Campbell is expected to bring many of his own assistants from Iowa State, and former Iowa State offensive line coach Ryan Clanton is already listed in the university’s staff directory as the football program’s offensive line coach.
