dbpprop:abstract
  • Dave Christensen is an American college football head coach for the University of Wyoming. Christensen was formerly the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator for the University of Missouri. He had served under Missouri head coach Gary Pinkel for 16 years, including the last eleven as his offensive coordinator. Pinkel left the head coaching job at the University of Toledo in 2001 for Missouri and he brought along Christensen to remain as his offensive play-caller. From 2005–2008, Christensen employed a passing-oriented version of the no-huddle spread offense. That offensive scheme has come into vogue recently as several BCS programs have achieved new-found success with it, including Missouri, Tulsa, and Texas Tech. In the 2007 season, Christensen's offense used this scheme to good effect by scoring a school record 558 points. Additionally, Missouri ranked fifth in total offensive yards (490.29 per game), eighth in scoring offense (39.86 points per game), and ninth in passing yards (314.07 per game). The same season propelled Chase Daniel to Heisman finalist status. Martin Rucker and Jeremy Maclin were named consensus All-Americans, making it the first time two Tigers were named as such in the same season. Christensen himself was a finalist for the Broyles Award and Rivals. com named him as the Offensive Coordinator of the Year. Christensen's name had been mentioned with respect to the head coaching position of several ailing programs, namely, New Mexico, Washington, Washington State, and Wyoming,. He ultimately chose to take the head coaching job at Wyoming.
