Baylor Defensive Line Coach Inoke Breckterfield Heads to Oregon State

Oregon State is expected to hire Baylor defensive line coach Inoke Breckterfield as its new defensive line coach, per Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports.

The Bears had multiple seniors along the defensive line, but were toward the bottom of the Big 12 in every category, allowing 32.6 points per game, 197.2 rushing yards per game, 194.9 passing yards per game and an opponent third-down conversion rate of 41%. Baylor was dead last in the conference in fumbles recovered (2) and sacks (12).

Before Baylor, Breckterfield spent two years at Washington, one season at Vanderbilt and six seasons at Wisconsin.

A native of Kaneohe, Hawaii, Breckterfield served as Aranda’s defensive line coach during the 2015 season at Wisconsin, Aranda’s last year leading the Badger defense, which ranked first in scoring defense and second in total defense. Breckterfield spent six seasons (2015-20) at Wisconsin.
