Patenaude will also coach Georgia Tech’s quarterbacks. Led by Patenaude, Temple ranks No. 24 in the nation in scoring this year and compiled two of the school’s top three totals in yards passing the last two years.

Patenaude spent five seasons as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Coastal Carolina before moving to Temple.

Thacker, from Cartersville, Georgia, was promoted to Temple’s defensive coordinator in 2018 after joining Collins’ staff as linebackers coach in 2017. He was Kennesaw State’s linebackers coach in 2016.
