Report: Arkansas State to name Harsin new head football coach

Arkansas State will name current Texas offensive coordinator Bryan Harsin as its new head football coach.

Harsin is expected to be named the new coach at a 2:00 p.m. (ET) press conference on Wednesday, according to a report by AStateNation.com.

Harsin was hired as Texas' offensive coordinator in 2011 after spending his previous 10 seasons on the Boise State coaching staff -- the last five as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

Former head coach Gus Malzahm took the Auburn job after just a year with the school. He led the Red Wolves to a 9-3 record and a Sun Belt conference title this season.
