No front office in football has experienced as much stability as the Pittsburgh Steelers. It’s not just Kevin Colbert and Mike Tomlin either. Top to bottom, their group hasn’t changed much over the years. Of the team’s Scouting Coordinators and area scouts, every single one of them has been with the Steelers for at least five years.
I talked about this in an offseason article several years ago. Looking back on and updating the list, none of the names have changed. Here’s how long each member has been with the team entering the 2021 season.
Phil Kreidler/College Scouting Coordinator: Entering 31st season
Brandon Hunt/Pro Scouting Coordinator: Entering 12th Season
Mark Gorscak College Area Scout: Entering 27th Season
Bruce McNorton Jr/College Area Scout: Entering 22nd season
Dan Rooney Jr/Player Personnel Coordinator + Southeast Scout: Entering 21st season
Dave Petett/College Scout: Entering 18th season
Dan Colbert/Northeast + Atlantic College Scout: Entering 11th season
Mike Butler/Area Scout: Entering 10th season
Chidi Iwuoma/BLESTO Scout: Entering 10th season
Mark Bruener/Area Scout: Entering 10th season
Rick Reiprish/Senior Assistant to College Scouting: Entering 7th season
The team has hired a couple lower-level members, intern-turned-BLESTO Scout Dennis MacInnis, and a couple of new analysts, Jay Whitmire and Tosin Kazeem.
