GREEN BAY – Listening wasn’t optional in the Raih household. As the fourth youngest of five brothers, the importance of hearing people out was engrained in David Raih at an early age.
Those childhood lessons served Raih well throughout his career as a quarterback at the University of Iowa, a stint in medical sales and now his 10-year odyssey as a football coach.
Each coaching stop immersed Raih in a different culture. He witnessed Rick Neuheisel’s infectious charisma and enthusiasm at UCLA, Kirk Ferentz’s elevated fundamentals at Iowa and Kliff Kingsbury’s quiet intensity at Texas Tech.
All of it led to Raih’s arrival in Green Bay, where he’s worked as the Packers’ coaching administrator, assistant offensive line coach and offensive perimeter coach for the past four seasons.
