Former Fresno State head coach Pat Hill is heading to the NFL.
Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com reports that Hill has agreed in principle to become the Falcons’ new offensive line coach.
Hill spent 15 seasons at Fresno and built a solid program that went to 11 bowl games, although the team struggled recently and he was fired at the end of a 4-9 season in 2011.
This isn’t Hill’s first stint as an NFL offensive line coach; he previously coached the line for the Browns from 1992 to 1995 and the Ravens in 1996.
The Falcons fired offensive line coach Paul Boudreau after the season.
