Scott Huff takes over as the Boise State tight ends coach this season, as he enters his fifth year coaching at his alma mater. This will mark Huff's second stint as the Boise State tight ends coach as he spent his first season on Coach Petersen's staff working with the tight ends. Huff spent the past three seasons as the Bronco offensive line coach. Huff, a 2002 graduate of Boise State, spent his time prior to BSU working with the offensive line as a graduate assistant at Arizona State under former Broncos head coach Dirk Koetter. In 2009 Huff helped coach a Bronco offensive line that played a vital role in Boise State's perfect 14-0 season that culminated by winning the 2010 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. The Boise State offense finished the year ranked No. 1 nationally in scoring offense (42.21 points per game), behind an offensive line that allowed the fewest quarterback sacks (5) of any team in the country. Huff's offensive line also provided protection for sophomore quarterback Kellen Moore, who went on to have one of the top seasons of any quarterback in school history. Behind the Bronco offensive line, Moore threw for a school record 39 touchdown passes, while tossing just three interceptions. Huff's group also blocked for second-team All-WAC running back Jeremy Avery, who finished 2009 with the seventh-most single season rushing yards in school history (1,151 yards). In 2008 Huff coached an offensive line that was instrumental in Boise State's perfect 12-0 regular season record. The Bronco offensive line also played a key role in helping develop Moore, who was then only a freshman, allowing the fewest quarterback sacks (13) in the Western Athletic Conference. In Huff's three seasons leading the offensive line Boise State averaged just 12.3 sacks allowed each year. Huff's offensive line unit also led the way for a Boise State offense that averaged 288.5 passing yards and 152.3 rushing yards per game in 2008. In his first two seasons coaching the offensive line the Boise State offense averaged 452.78 total yards, 278.02 passing yards and 174.75 rushing yards per game. In his first season as a full-time coach, Huff's tight ends were instrumental in Boise State's 13-0 season and its 43-42 overtime win over Oklahoma in the 2007 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. Tight end Derek Schouman earned first-team All-Western Athletic Conference honors in '06 and was also a seventh-round pick by the Buffalo Bills in the 2007 NFL draft. As a group in 2006, Boise State's tight ends combined to catch 36 passes for 401 yards and five touchdowns as the Broncos finished second in the country in scoring and 10th in total offense. As a player, Huff started 40 games at center during his four-year career. During that time he earned first-team All-WAC honors as a senior, anchoring an offensive line that helped Boise State lead the nation in scoring and total yards. During his career, Boise State won three conference championships - one in the WAC and two in the Big West Conference. In 2005 he was named to the Bronco Stadium 35th Anniversary Team as the team's center. Huff, a team captain his senior year, was also named first-team All-WAC by Sporting News following his junior season and was on both the Rimington and Lombardi Award watch lists as a senior. Huff, a native of Phoenix, earned a business administration degree from Boise State before receiving his master's degree in secondary education-curriculum and instruction from Arizona State. |
