Tim Burmeister is in his first season with Utah State’s football program as a special teams administrative assistant. In his role with the Aggies, Burmeister will be assisting in all aspects of special teams.
Burmeister comes to Utah State after spending the 2019 campaign at Washington State, where he split time as an assistant linebackers coach and defensive quality control assistant. During his time in Pullman, Wash., Burmeister coached Jahad Woods to all-Pac-12 honorable mention honors after he recorded 141 tackles – the fourth-most in the country – the most by a Cougar since 1991. Woods also tallied a team-high 10 tackles-for-loss, three sacks, three pass breakups, two forced fumbles and one interception.
Prior to joining Washington State, Burmeister worked the previous four seasons on the North Texas coaching staff, including the final three as a defensive graduate assistant and spent the spring of 2019 in a quality control position. The native of Milwaukee, Wis., spent the 2015 season as an intern working with the Mean Green defensive backs.
Burmeister moved to coaching the linebackers as a graduate assistant from 2016-18 and helped produce four all-Conference USA linebackers during that span, led by E.J. Ejiya, who earned all-Conference USA first-team honors in 2018 after posting 121 tackles, 25.0 tackles for loss and nine sacks.
Burmeister played defensive back at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point from 2011-14 and earned his bachelor of science degree in business administration and economics in 2015. He later earned his master’s degree in interdisciplinary studies.
Burmeister is married to the former Cassidy Alles.
