MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Walk out to a Middle Tennessee football practice or scan the sidelines during a game and you'll see coaches, players and a big, self-proclaimed teddy bear.
That teddy bear of a man is named Brent Brock, and he may be one of the most instrumental pieces to the Blue Raiders' success both on and off the field.
Brock, who serves as director of football operations, does a little bit of everything behind the scenes for the Raiders.
He works closely with almost every department in MT Athletics that deals with players and coaches, from compliance to admissions and academic enhancement, and also organizes team travel, recruiting weekends and the team banquet.
