INDIANAPOLIS – The start of the 2023 college football season is just around the corner and with training camp just days away for the Bulldogs, head coach
Mike Uremovich announced some title changes to the current coaching staff.
Alex Barr will work as the offensive coordinator in 2023 after being the run game coordinator in 2022. Coach Barr will still oversee the offensive line position group. Butler's new run game coordinator will be newcomer
Sean Chase. Coach Chase will work with the team's fullbacks, running backs and tight ends this season.
Butler's pass game coordinator for the upcoming season will be
Ray Holmes. He will continue to work with the program's wide receivers in 2023 on a day-to-day basis. Yet another change to the offensive side of the ball will be with
Clint Hostler working with the running backs. Coach Hostler served as an offensive analyst in his first year with the team.
Defensively, Butler will stick to their 2022 script in many ways.
Jeff Knowles will once again work as the defensive coordinator and oversee the linebackers for the Bulldogs. Knowles has added responsibility moving forward as the assistant head coach.
Adam Siwicki will be the teams recruiting coordinator going forward. Coach Siwicki will continue to work as the defensive line coach in 2023.
The Bulldogs are the same on the back end with
Jalen Moss coaching cornerbacks and
Joe Cheshire coaching the safeties. Coach Cheshire is once again responsible for managing special teams for Butler as the Special Teams Coordinator.
The 2023 season kicks off on Sept. 2 this year with Butler traveling to Montana. The home opener will fall on the following weekend with the Bulldogs hosting the Taylor Trojans on Sept. 9. Opening kick is set for 1 PM.
