BOISE, Idaho — Boise State has hired Zak Hill as its quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator and promoted offensive line coach Scott Huff to share coordinator duties with Hill.
Boise State announced the coaching changes on Friday.
Hill, a Prairie High School grad, comes to Boise State after being named the offensive coordinator at Hawaii in December before deciding to return to the mainland when the opening with the Broncos became available. Before being hired at Hawaii, Hill spent seven seasons at FCS powerhouse Eastern Washington as the quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator.
Hill played quarterback collegiately at Central Washington where he was a record-breaking quarterback from 1999-2003. He broke more than 20 league records and passed for 8,882 career yards (233.7 avg.) while completing 60.2 percent of his passes and 76 touchdowns. He threw for more than 300-yards in 11 games and had at least 200-yards in 24 games. In 2002, Hill led CWU to an 11-1 record and was named a third-team All-American. He was inducted into the school’s Hall of Fame in 2013.
Boise State also announced the promotion of wide receivers coach Junior Adams to passing game coordinator. Additionally, head coach Bryan Harsin announced he will call plays for the Broncos next season.
