Brian Mohnsen Defensive Ends Third Year E-mail: bmohnsen@buffalo.edu Phone: 716-645-7909 Office: 104 Stadium

Brian Mohnsen begins his third season at Buffalo. He made the move from linebackers coach to defensive ends coach in 2007.

As defensive ends coach, Mohnsen aided in the development of All-MAC defensive end Trevor Scott, who had 10 sacks, 15 tackles for loss and seven quarterback hurries en route to finishing runner up in the voting for MAC Defensive Player of the Year in 2007.

As linebackers coach in 2006, his impact was seen immediately in his first season as the Bulls top three leaders in the tackles per game category were all linebackers.

Mohnsen came to UB after serving as the defensive line coach at Minnesota State-Mankato. In 2004, he was the defensive coordinator at Northwestern Oklahoma State, leading the defense to a second place ranking nationally in total defense and pass defense, third in rushing defense and fifth in scoring defense.

Mohnsen spent 12 years at Nebraska (1992-2003), serving as director of the Cornhuskers’ video scouting department while assisting with gameday management for both home and away games.

During the 1991 season, Mohnsen started in his career as an undergraduate coach working with the defensive linemen and linebackers at Nebraska, while also performing student teaching duties. From 1987-90, Mohnsen was a member of the Cornhusker football program as a defensive end and a linebacker, earning a varsity letter during his senior year.
