| DALLAS BLACKLOCK ASSISTANT COACH - WIDE RECEIVERS TEXAS SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY |
"It's a great opportunity for me," said Blacklock, who has spent the past three seasons as the University of Houston's director of high school relations. "Anybody who leaves the University of Houston and Tom Herman is probably crazy. It had to be a great fit."
Blacklock joins the staff of new TSU coach Mike Haywood, who was hired in early December. The move allows Blacklock to get back into coaching in an area with which he's familiar. Before UH, Blacklock spent one season as an assistant at Fort Bend Marshall and four seasons at his alma mater, Sharpstown High School, the last two as head coach.
As Sharpstown's head coach, Blacklock compiled a two-year record of 16-7 including playoff berths both seasons. Blacklock's 2012 team finished the year undefeated in district play and advanced to the second round of the Texas state playoffs. During his two-year stint at Sharpstown, 19 players went on to play football on the collegiate level.
A Houston native, Blacklock graduated from McPherson College in May of 2003 with a degree in Religion and Philosophy. A four-year letterman as a defensive back, Blacklock earned NAIA second team All-America honors as a senior while also earning All-KCAC second team honors in 2002 and 2003.
Dallas Blacklock joined the Houston Football program as the director of high school relation in June of 2013.
"Texas Southern is a place that's always been dear to my heart," he said Monday.
