Multiple reports out of Utah tonight indicate that Utes offensive coordinator Dave Christensen is leaving Utah to become offensive line coach at Texas A&M. The Salt Lake City Tribune's report had the greatest detail, stating that Christensen would be accepting a multi-year deal in College Station. Christensen made $500,000 last season.

Christensen played under Don James at Washington and joined James assistant Gary Pinkel at Toledo in 1990 as offensive line coach for two seasons before also becoming offensive coordinator in 1992. He left with Pinkel in 1996 to become offensive coordinator at Missouri. The Tigers' switch to the spread offense in 2005 paid long term dividends for the program as the Tigers won multiple Big 12 North titles in the next few years with Christensen and ranked in the top ten nationally in scoring, passing, and total offense in 2007.

He became the head coach at Wyoming in 2009 and the Cowboys played in two bowl games in a five year span. He was let go after the 2012 season and found his way to Utah as offensive coordinator for the 2014 season.
