Long-time Iowa special teams coordinator LeVar Woods has left the Iowa program and will take on a new position at Michigan State, Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz told the media on Thursday.
According to Pete Thamel of ESPN, Woods will be the Assistant Head Coach and Special Teams Coordinator at Michigan State under new head coach Pat Fitzgerald. Woods will coach Iowa through the ReliaQuest Bowl on New Year’s Eve.
Woods has been the head of Iowa’s special teams unit since March of 2017 and has been in charge of one of the most consistent and highly decorated special teams units in college football the last couple of years.
“The University of Iowa gave me more than football,” Woods said on Thursday. “It gave me my life.”
