Reggie Davis New Husker RB Coach

In 2011, the 49ers tight ends served as valuable weapons and accounted for 87 receptions for 1,009 yards and nine touchdowns, including a team-leading six by Davis. In the 49ers two playoff games, Davis notched 10 receptions for 292 yards and four touchdowns. His 292 receiving yards are the most in NFL history by a tight end in their first two postseason games. He became just the fifth player in the Super Bowl era to register at least two touchdowns in consecutive postseason games in the same season.

Davis previously played alongside, and coached under, 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh, while with the San Diego Chargers and at the University of San Diego, respectively.

Davis spent the previous three years as the running backs coach at Oregon State University. Under his tutelage, RB Jacquizz Rodgers became the first freshman in the history of the Pac-10 Conference to earn its Offensive MVP award in 2008, after rushing for 1,253 yards and earning All-America honors for his efforts.

Prior to joining the Beavers in 2008, Davis was the running backs coach at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas from 2005-07. In 2004, he served on Harbaugh’s San Diego coaching staff, tutoring the tight ends and assisting with special teams. From 2001-04, he worked as a speed and strength coach for Play Fast Athletics in San Diego.

A University of Washington standout, Davis went on to play two seasons alongside Harbaugh as a Charger (1999-2000), appearing in 26 games (three starts).

So is Warren the only staff member retained? I was hoping this position would go to Brown.

 
Will he also coach TE's here? He has some big shoes to fill though. If there's one position group that played well each season and managed to consistently send guys to the NFL, it was RBs.

 
Coached at 3 D1 Universities

Played at D1 University

Played in NFL

Coached in NFL (NFC Chamionship at least twice)

Yet I'm sure folks will still call this a buddy hire.
