Nick Sheridan reunited with Husky head coach Kalen DeBoer on the 2022 staff as Washington's tight ends coach. When DeBoer moved on to Alabama, Sheridan followed and became the Offensive Coordinator for the 2024 season. Sheridan, who was offensive coordinator at Indiana the previous two seasons, worked as tight ends coach under DeBoer at Indiana in 2019, when DeBoer was in charge of the Hoosiers' offense. A former walk-on quarterback, who eventually earned a scholarship, at Michigan (2006-2010), Sheridan began his college coaching career at Western Kentucky, first as a GA in 2011, then as quarterbacks coach the following year. After stops at South Florida and Tennessee, he was hired as quarterbacks coach at Indiana in 2017, when he was named one of the top-30 coaches under the age of 30 by 247Sports.com. In 2019, with DeBoer as offensive coordinator, Sheridan coached the tight ends. On today’s podcast which is a segment from the IHSFCA Clinic, Coach Sheridan shares his process of putting together an offense.
