Tyler Roehl is back with the North Dakota State football program, only now as a coach. Head coach Craig Bohl confirmed his hire as a graduate assistant.
Roehl, who finished his Bison career two years ago, will work mainly with the tailbacks, while running backs coach Tim Polasek will concentrate on the fullbacks and tight ends. As a graduate assistant, Roehl's duties include film breakdown, offensive scout team and on-the-field teaching with the tailbacks.
Roehl spent last season coaching running backs at Concordia College.
