Over the last two years, Florida Gators football fans have added a new phrase to their vocabulary, “quality control coach”. The phrase has been used in the NFL for the past few decades and over the last few years we have seen an up-tick in quality control coaches in college football.
Last season, the Gators had six quality control coaches and this upcoming season look to have at least that number, if not more.
Because of the renewed focus on quality control coaches, the question has often been asked, “what does a quality control coach do?”
The answer is somewhat nebulous and the NCAA does not even define the role in their exceptionally long 434-page Division 1 Manual.
