NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Retired Wyoming coach Craig Bohl will become executive director of the American Football Coaches Association next month, succeeding Todd Berry as head of the 11,000-member organization.

The AFCA announced Monday that its board of directors voted in Bohl during its annual convention.

The 65-year-old Bohl retired last month after 10 years at Wyoming, where he went 61-60 and led the Cowboys to six bowls. He previously won three Football Championship Subdivision titles in 11 years at North Dakota State and was an assistant at Nebraska, Tulsa, Wisconsin, Rice and Duke.

The native of Lincoln, Nebraska, was a defensive back for the Cornhuskers in the late 1970s and began his coaching career as a graduate assistant under Tom Osborne in 1981.

Berry started as executive director after head coaching stints at Army and Louisiana-Monroe.
