Michael Vick is reportedly going to be a college football head coach. The former star NFL quarterback will take over as head coach of Norfolk State's football program, according to The Virginian-Pilot. Vick told the outlet Monday he was having conversations about potentially taking over the program. 'I know how to lead, and I know what it takes,' he told the newspaper. Vick had also been linked to another college head coach opening at Sacramento State, according to ESPN.
He has expressed interest in the position, and, yes, I did meet with him about his interest in Sac State football and our athletic rise. As you can imagine, given the success of our athletic programs, our football head coach job is an attractive role,' Sacramento State President Luke Wood said in a statement to ESPN.
