02:15 PM ET 02.11 | Dennis Erickson will be the next offensive coordinator at Utah, the school announced Monday.

Erickson hasn't coached in an assistant role since 1981. Since, he's been a head coach at both the college level - notably winning two national championships with "The U"-era Miami in 1989 and 1991 - and in the NFL - stints with the Seahawks and 49ers. He was most recently head coach at Arizona State, but was fired after a 6-7 season in 2011. It's his fourth stint in the Pac-12, having coached at Washington State and won conference titles with both Oregon State and Arizona State.

Utah was 105th in total offense this past season.

Alrighty, then.

If you look at his record with the Niners, 105 might be a nicer number...

He's the Larry Brown of football.
