Losing a coach is so much more than what happens on the field. There’s a relationship there, one that’s been built since a player was in high school and getting letters, phone calls and visits from that coach.
Rod Carey gets that, and he’s making sure to keep that in mind as he enters his new role as Indiana football’s interim offensive line coach and run game coordinator.
“Those are real relationships and those are real people with families,” Carey said in an introductory press conference Monday.
Head coach Tom Allen made the decision to part ways with Darren Hiller, Indiana’s previous offensive line coach, following the Hoosiers’ loss to Michigan this past Saturday.
