Description

Today on Coach and Coordinator Podcast, we continue our "Home Team Podcast" series. Our guest host Joel Nellis welcomes in the head coach at Northern Illinois University Thomas Hammock. As a player at Northern Illinois, Coach Hammock still ranks 13th all-time in Huskie history in career rushing yards. A heart condition halted Coach Hammock's playing career, but he quickly transitioned to roles as a coach with the University of Wisconsin and the Baltimore Ravens. After spending five seasons with the Ravens as the running backs coach, Coach Hammock returned to take the helm as the first African American head coach in Northern Illinois' history. Learn from Coach Hammock about how he emphasizes family in his program and how he develops his players into young men.
