USA TODAY Sports reported the hiring earlier in the day.
Harsin, 37, went 7-5 last season in his first year as a head coach. He was an assistant at Boise from 2002-2010 before going to Texas as offensive coordinator for two years.
Harsin replaces Chris Petersen, who was hired Friday to take the job at Washington.

Bryan played a key role in the development of the football program as an assistant for 10 years at Boise State and we look forward to his leadership as we continue the ascension of Bronco football."
