Joe Bob is official…

From the Kansas State sports information department:

Shortly after being named the 34th head football coach at Kansas State, Bill Snyder began assembling his coaching staff with the announcement of Kansas native and former Wildcat Joe Bob Clements as an assistant coach responsible for directing the Wildcat defensive ends.

Clements, a 1999 Kansas State graduate who previously served on Snyder’s Wildcat coaching staff, has spent the past season at Kansas, where he coached the Jayhawks’ defensive line and tutored All-Big 12 selections Caleb Blakesley and Jake Laptad. Prior to his stint in Lawrence, Clements was an assistant coach (defensive line) at San Diego State in 2006 and 2007, which included a role as the Aztec’s recruiting coordinator in 2007.

But, Clements will now return to his alma mater where he was a part of 10 bowl games as both a player and coach and served a total of seven seasons on Snyder’s staff, the final three as an assistant coach in charge of the defensive ends from 2003-05. He also served as the Wildcats’ recruiting coordinator in 2004 and 2005.
