WARRIOR FOOTBALL
UH names Ron Lee offensive coordinator
When Ron Lee was offensive coordinator for Greg McMackin at Oregon Tech, the Hustlin' Owls led the NAIA in passing for three consecutive seasons.
It should come as no surprise that McMackin again would go to Lee when selecting an offensive coordinator for the Warriors football team. Lee, 63, has been the Hawaii receivers coach the past nine years.
"Ron has over 30 years of experience running the run-and-shoot offense," McMackin said in a press release yesterday. "He has done a great job with June (Jones) in our offense and I truly believe he will continue his successful career."
At UH, Lee has coached a receiving corps that has annually ranked among the best in the country. This past season, Ryan Grice-Mullins and Davone Bess ranked fifth and seventh in receiving yards nationally.
