Josh Haverfield enters his fifth season on the Texas Tech strength staff and his second in the role of coordinator of football performance and analytics.
Haverfield moved into his current position after previously serving as an intern under head strength coach Lance Barilow in 2022 and then as a post-grad intern each of the next two seasons. He oversaw many of Texas Tech’s performance analytics on an interim basis during the 2024 season before earning his full-time promotion prior to the Red Raiders’ appearance in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl.
Texas Tech is coming off one of its best seasons in recent memory with a school record 12 wins to go along with the first Big 12 title in program history and an appearance in the College Football Playoff. The Red Raiders won each of their 12 games by at least 20 points en route to ranking as high as No. 7 in the final Associated Press poll.
Prior to joining the Texas Tech staff, Haverfield was a graduate assistant at Northern State University from 2020-22 and then an intern at Wyoming in 2019. His time at Wyoming coincided with that of senior associate strength coach Aaron Hall, who was an assistant on the Cowboys’ staff in 2019.
Haverfield, a native of Marion, Ohio, was an offensive lineman at Bluffton University from 2015-18 before entering the coaching profession. He earned his bachelor’s degree in strength and conditioning from Bluffton in 2019 and then his master’s in sports performance and leadership from Northern State in 2022.
Haverfield and his wife, Jordan, were married in December 2025 in a ceremony performed by head coach Joey McGuire.
