Moeller, a four-year letterman (1983-86) and two-year starter at linebacker for the Wolverines, will coach the offensive tackles and tight ends at Michigan. As a senior, he was co-captain of Michigan's 1987 Rose Bowl team, earning All-Big Ten first team accolades during the 1986 season while leading the Wolverines with 138 tackles. Moeller currently ranks 12th in career tackles (326).
Moeller spent the last six seasons on the University of Missouri coaching staff, coaching the offensive line the past three years. During that three-year period, the Tigers have ranked among the nation's top 10 in rushing yards per game and Moeller has had three players earn All-Big 12 Conference first team honors during that period. He has also coached the tight ends and tackles, was co-coordinator of special teams and recently had been promoted to co-offensive coordinator during his tenure at Missouri.
"We are all sorry to see Andy Moeller leave," Missouri head coach Larry Smith said. "He's done a fantastic job coaching our offensive line and played a very significant role in the successes that we've experienced at Missouri. We wish him well in his future endeavors."
Prior to Missouri, Moeller coached six years at the United States Military Academy. He spent times as offensive line coach, inside linebackers coach and specials teams coordinator while at Army. Moeller also spent one year as a graduate assistant coach on Bill Mallory's staff at Indiana University.
Moeller, 35, is the son of former Michigan head coach Gary Moeller. He was an all-state player at Ann Arbor Pioneer High School before attending the University of Michigan. Moeller graduated from Michigan in 1987 with a bachelor of arts degree in economics and communications. He and his wife, Molly, have four children: Charlie, Nick, Olivia and Melanie.
