Barring a last minute, Cleveland Browns assistant Kurt Roper is expected to be named offensive coordinator at South Carolina by new head football coach Will Muschamp.

The 43-year old Roper was offensive coordinator at Florida in 2014 and previously extensively worked under Duke head coach David Cutcliffe. He was offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach from 2008-13 for the Blue Devils and held the same position at Ole Miss from 1999-2004. He also followed Cutcliffe to Tennessee during Cutcliffe’s second stint with the Volunteers where he coached running backs.

Roper is a native of Ames, Iowa, and played quarterback at Rice.
