Luke Fickell continued to bolster his coaching staff on Tuesday with the addition of former Ohio State DC Kerry Coombs.
Coombs (60) is a familiar face in the Queen City, holding experience as the Bearcats’ defensive backs coach from 2007-11. Running up success in the heat of the late Brian Kelly era, he made the move to Ohio State in 2012, and in 2017 his hard work landed him a job as the defensive backs coach for the NFL’s Tennessee Titans. The Cincinnati native also produced a stint with local Colerain high school from 1991 to 2006, where he won a state title and fancied a 161-34 record as head coach.
