WEATHERFORD, Okla. – Head Coach
Josh Kirkland has announced the addition of
Karson Green to his staff for the 2022 football season. He will be responsible for coaching the offensive line for the Bulldogs.
"Green is an intelligent coach with time spent playing at the highest junior college and NCAA levels that will provide tremendous experience for us," said Kirkland. "His ties within the Oklahoma landscape are a huge asset to us for recruiting and I'm excited to have him join the staff."
Green comes from the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO) where he spent the past two seasons as the Offensive Line Coach for the Bronchos. It was his second stint in Edmond, having also served as a graduate assistant for UCO from 2018-19.
In between coaching jobs at UCO, Green spent a year at NCAA Division I University of Massachusetts where he coached offensive line and was the offensive quality control coach. While at UMass, Green coached Larnell Coleman, who was selected in the seventh round of the 2021 NFL Draft.
During his playing days, Green spent two seasons at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M (NEO) College before transferring to Iowa State in 2016.
"I'm thankful for Coach Kirkland giving me this opportunity to join the staff at SWOSU," Green said. "The SWOSU community is unbelievable and has given my family and I such a warm welcome. I am looking forward to creating great men through our football program. Go Dawgs!"
A native of Madill, Okla., Green holds a bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts & Sciences from Iowa State and a master's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies of History from UCO. He and his wife Bre'Anna have two dogs, Frank and Lucy.
