Tim Drevno enters his third season on the Stanford coaching staff and his 17th campaign as a collegiate coach. He will assume coaching responsibilities with the offensive line this season after serving as the team's tight end coach for the past two seasons.
Prior to his arrival at Stanford, Drevno was the offensive coordinator and offensive line coach four seasons from 2003-06 at the University of San Diego. Current Stanford head coach Jim Harbaugh retained Drevno after his arrival on the San Diego hill in 2004. The Toreros won NCAA Division I-AA Mid-Major national titles and Pioneer League championships in each of the last two campaigns the duo worked together.
The four Torero teams Drevno coached offensive football for enjoyed a tremendous amount of success, ranking as the nation's top offense twice as well as third once and ninth on the other occasion.
The 2006 squad that finished 11-1 overall led all NCAA Division I-AA teams in passing offense (293.3 ypg), total offense (494.25 ypg) and scoring offense (42.83 ppg). Quarterback Josh Johnson was one of four offensive All-Americans on the team and led all NCAA Division I-AA quarterbacks in passing efficiency (169.0 quarterback rating), touchdown passes (34, co-leader), points responsible for (24.33 ppg) and total offense (336.7 ypg), while throwing for 3,320 yards to also lead the country and running for another 721. He added 11 rushing touchdowns and even caught one TD pass.
San Diego set numerous offense school records in 2005, including a 42.6 points per game average and 485.2 yards of total offense per game.
In 2004, the Torero offense averaged 432.4 yards of total offense per game to rank ninth in the nation. The Toreros were also 11th in scoring offense (36.1 ppg) and 12th in passing offense (275.4 ypg).
Drevno directed USD's West Coast offense to 483.3 yards per game to lead the nation and a Pioneer Football League best 39.9 points per game in 2003 when the squad finished 8-2 and was co-champs of the Pioneer Football League's North Division. He also worked closely with quarterback Josh Johnson, who was a fifth round draft pick of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in last spring's NFL Draft and wide receiver Michael Gaspersan, who saw time with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Drevno was the offensive line coach at Idaho for three seasons (2000-02) prior to joining the USD staff. The Vandal offense ranked sixth in the nation in 2001 and eighth in 2000. He coached three NFL players while at Idaho, including Jake Scott, Rick Demulling and Patrick Venzke. Scott, a fifth round pick of Indianapolis in 2004, has started all 16 regular season games with the Colts each of the past three seasons (2005-07) and was in the lineup as a starter in the squad's Super Bowl XLI victory over the Chicago Bears on February 4, 2007. DeMulling was also drafted by Indianapolis in the seventh round of the 2001 NFL Draft and played four seasons with the Colts (2001-04) before two campaigns (2005-06) with the Detroit Lions and 2007 as a member of the Washington Redskins. Venzke spent time with the Colts and the Carolina Panthers before going onto play with NFL Europe.
Prior to his tenure at Idaho, Drevno's previous coaching stops included San Jose State as the offensive line coach (1999), UNLV (1998) as the running backs coach and Montana State (1993-98), where he coached the tight ends for three seasons (1993-95) before going from 1996 through the spring of 1998 as the running backs coach. While at San Jose State, Drevno worked with NFL players Jalani Hawkins (Houston Texans) and Joe Hayes (Green Bay Packers).
After earning a pair of All-Bay League honors as a prep at South Torrance High School, Drevno went on to a standout collegiate playing career. He spent his first two years of collegiate action at El Camino College, where he helped lead his club to a national title in 1987 and earned All-Mission League honors the following season. He moved on for three seasons at Cal State Fullerton from 1989-91 and was a two-year starter on the offensive line.
Drevno earned his bachelor's degree in criminal justice from Cal State-Fullerton in 1992. Tim and his wife Shannon reside in Menlo Park with their three children, McKenna, Zachary and Baylee.
