Scottie Hazelton
Scott Gregory Hazelton (born December 19, 1973) is an American college football coach. He is the defensive coordinator and linebackers coach for Wake Forest University, positions he has held since 2025. He also coached for Fort Lewis, North Dakota State, St. Olaf, Missouri Southern, Michigan Tech, USC, Nevada, Wyoming, Kansas State, Michigan State, Texas, and the Jacksonville Jaguars of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for Fort Lewis as a linebacker.
Hazelton prepped at Horizon High School in Thornton, Colorado, from 1989 to 1991.
After high school, Hazelton played linebacker at Fort Lewis College where he lettered from 1992 to 1994. He earned a degree in exercise science.
Hazelton began his coaching career with his alma mater, Fort Lewis, as the team's defensive backs coach. In 1999, he was promoted to interim defensive coordinator. In 2000, he became a graduate assistant for North Dakota State under defensive coordinator Gus Bradley.
After finishing his graduate program, Hazelton was hired by St. Olaf as the defensive backs coach, a position he held for two years. He left St. Olaf in 2004 to become the defensive coordinator for Missouri Southern under head coach John Ware. After Ware died and interim head coach Keeth Matheny was not retained he was hired as the linebackers coach for Michigan Tech in 2006.
In 2007, Hazelton returned to North Dakota State as the defensive line coach. In his first year back with the Bison he helped the defense rank 18th nationally in third down efficiency (33.3%) and 22nd nationally in rushing defense (126.5 ypg). This was all highlighted with wins over FBS opponents Central Michigan 44–14 and Minnesota 27–21.
A year later the defense led the FCS in pass defense (116.82 ypg), 5th in total defense (254 ypg) and 19th in scoring defense (19.18 ppg). In regards to his position his players ranked 3rd nationally in sacks (3.36 sacks per game) and 5th in tackles for a loss (8.55 TFL per game).
2009 was not a good year for the Bison and Hazelton. The defense forced just three interceptions while ranking 90th in scoring defense and finished 3–8 (2–6).
