According to James Bryant of AStateNation.com, who broke the news late Tuesday night, the Red Wolves will announce the hiring at a 2 p.m. press conference on Wednesday.
Harsin reportedly interviewed at Arkansas State on Tuesday, according to reports from the morning. Harsin, technically a co-coordinator at Texas, had been with the Longhorns for two seasons. Previously, he had served as a quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator with the Boise State Broncos. Harsin played quarterback for the Broncos in the late 1990s.
In his first and only season with Arkansas State in 2012, Malzahn led the Red Wolves to a 9-3 record and a Sun Belt championship before leaving to return to Auburn, where he was previously the offensive coordinator.
