DURHAM, NC -- North Carolina Central University and new head football coach Rod Broadway have announced six members of its football coaching staff, which includes two former Eagle student-athletes and two former NCCU coaches.
Kienus "Perez" Boulware has been retained from the recent staff of Rudy Abrams, who announced his retirement after four seasons at NCCU. Boulware, who coached linebackers for four seasons at NCCU (1999-2002) and two seasons at Livingstone College (1997-98) , will serve as Defensive Line Coach under Broadway. A native of Thomasville, NC, Boulware played linebacker at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1993-94) and earned a bachelor's degree in organizational communication in May of 1997.
Damon Frenchers spent seven seasons on the NCCU sideline as a defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator under former Eagle head coach Larry Little. After coaching stops at Delaware State University (Defensive Coordinator, 1999-2001) and Norfolk State University (Linebacker Coach, 2002), Frenchers returns to NCCU to serve as Linebacker Coach and Defensive Coordinator. He played two seasons (1985-86) as a defensive tackle at the University of Missouri, where he also assisted the defensive line coach for two additional seasons (1987-88) . Before his first stint at NCCU, Frenchers worked as the defensive end/strength and conditioning coach at South Carolina State University (1989-91).
Robert Massey, who became NCCU's third all-time career interceptions leader during four standout seasons (1985-88) as an Eagle defensive back and spent 10 seasons in the National Football League, will return to his alma mater as Wide Receiver Coach. Massey served as team captain during his final two seasons at NCCU, earning All-CIAA recognition in 1987 and 1988 and receiving All-America honors as a senior. He was then drafted in the second round of the 1989 NFL Draft and named to the 1989 All-Rookie Team with the New Orleans Saints. Massey was later selected to the 1992 Pro Bowl as a member of the Phoenix Cardinals. After retiring from the NFL in 1998 as a member of the New York Giants, Massey remained with the team as an assistant defensive back coach. Massey took over the Hillside High School football program in 2001, and in his second season as head coach he guided the Hornets to their first state playoff appearance in nine years.
Trei Oliver, who earned All-CIAA and All-South Region honors as a defensive back and punter during his four-year career (1994-97) at NCCU, rejoins the Eagles as Defensive Back Coach and Special Teams Coordinator. Oliver spent the past four seasons (1999-2002) as the defensive secondary coach and assistant special teams coach at Delaware State University. A 1998 graduate of NCCU and native of Tabb, VA, Oliver twice led the CIAA in punting, including a 41.7 yard average in 1997, which ranks fifth on the Eagles' all-time single season list. As an NCCU senior, he landed two positions on the All-South Region Team, earning First Team honors as a defensive back and a Second Team selection as a punter.
Linwood Ferguson, who has 28 years of football coaching experience to his credit, joins the NCCU staff as Quarterback Coach and Offensive Coordinator after spending last season as the offensive coordinator at North Carolina A&T State University. In 2001 as the head football coach at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas, Ferguson's squad won a Lone Star Conference Divisional Championship and topped the league in scoring offense (42.5 points per game), passing offense (318.2 passing yards per game), and total offense (522.9 total yards per game). Ferguson has also had coaching stints at Murray State University (defensive coordinator), Southern Illinois University at Carbondale (special teams coordinator), East Carolina University (secondary coach), Elon College (defensive coordinator) and Chowan College (Defensive Coordinator). He earned both his bachelor's and master's degrees from East Carolina University in 1973 and 1975, respectively.
Andrew O'Daniel comes to NCCU as the Offensive Line Coach after serving as a graduate assistant coach at the University of Texas, where he earned his master's degree in December 2002. O'Daniel worked with the offensive line and tight ends for the past two seasons at Texas as a graduate assistant under head coach Mack Brown. He also spent three seasons (1998-2000) assisting the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill football program. O'Daniel received his bachelor's degree from Florida State University in 1998.
