MOBILE, Ala. – University of South Alabama assistant football coach Matt Kitchens sat down with USAJaguars.com to answer five questions entering his first season as a member of the Jaguar staff.
Following a four-year career at Arkansas Tech — which included posting 46 tackles with 7½ for loss as a senior for a 9-3 team that won its first-round NCAA Division II playoff contest — Kitchens earned his degree in communications in 2009 and then entered the coaching profession at his alma mater the next season. He was a graduate assistant for two years before serving in a full-time capacity in 2012, then moved on to take a graduate assistant coaching position at Southern Miss for the next two falls.
