Kevin Wilson Picked as New Head Football Coach

Indiana University Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Fred Glass today (Dec. 7) introduced University of Oklahoma offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson as IU's new head football coach. Last night, Glass and Wilson agreed to terms on a seven-year deal that will pay Wilson $1.2 million per year. Wilson just completed his ninth successful regular season at Oklahoma, helping Coach Bob Stoops lead the Sooners to victory over Nebraska in the Big 12 title game on Saturday (Dec. 4). Oklahoma played in a major bowl game in each of Wilson's nine seasons. Additionally, he led three of the most productive offenses in college football history in 2003, 2007 and 2008. The 2008 offense set NCAA records by scoring 60 or more points in five straight games and 716 for the season.
