Kenni Burns, Minnesota running backs coach/assistant head coach
Age: 38
Burns has become one of P.J. Fleck's most important assistants, first at Western Michigan and now Minnesota, where he oversees a loaded running backs room. He helped North Dakota State to three consecutive FCS national titles, and also coached receivers at Wyoming. Burns would be a candidate for multiple MAC jobs and perhaps some in the Mountain West.
"He is a holistic person developer, a purpose-driven recruiter, a faith-based principled leader, an adaptable game planner and pristinely organized," a Group of 5 athletic director said.
