Iowa football coach Kirk Ferentz has promoted director of on-campus 
recruiting Kelvin Bell to recruiting coordinator, Ferentz announced Friday.

Bell, who held his on-campus recruiting position for the past two years 
and will also be a defensive assistant, takes over for Seth Wallace, now 
Iowa's linebackers coach.

"Kelvin will be a very positive addition to our coaching staff,” Ferentz 
said in a statement. “As a former player and an Iowa graduate, he 
possesses an extensive understanding of our Hawkeye football culture, 
which is built on character, academics and player development.”

A native of Olive Branch, Miss., Bell redshirted as a Hawkeye defensive 
lineman in 2000, then had his career cut short by injury.

He was a graduate assistant at Iowa from 2012-13 after previous 
assistant coaching experience at Iowa City Regina High School (2004-06), 
Cornell College (2006-07), Wayne State College (2008-09) and Trinity 
International University (2011).

“In 2012, Coach Ferentz gave me a chance to return to Iowa football as a 
graduate assistant,” Bell said in a statement. “I was thrilled to be 
able to work for one of the best men in this profession and contribute 
to the success of my alma mater.

“My experiences these past four years, both on and off the field, have 
been invaluable toward my development in the coaching profession. I’m 
thankful for the opportunity to continue my career as a member of the 
Iowa football coaching staff.”
