Kansas State Set to Hire Missouri QB Coach Sean Gleeson as Offensive Coordinator

The reported move brings a veteran with Big 12 experience to Collin Klein’s inaugural staff.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets reported on Jan. 10 that Kansas State is hiring Missouri quarterbacks coach Sean Gleeson as offensive coordinator for Collin Klein’s first staff.
  • Gleeson’s resume includes coordinator stints at Princeton (2017–18), Oklahoma State (2019) and Rutgers (2020–22), plus analyst and QB coach roles at Missouri.
  • His units have ranged from high-output offenses at Princeton and Oklahoma State to a Rutgers tenure that ended with his 2022 dismissal during offensive struggles.
  • He is expected to shape an attack around returning quarterback Avery Johnson, who remains the centerpiece of the Wildcats’ offense.
  • Play-calling responsibilities have not been specified, with open questions about whether Gleeson or Klein will handle game-day duties.
