Coach Darryl Bullock began as offensive line coach at NCCU prior to the 2007 gridiron season. Following the 2007 campaign, he was elevated to the rank of Assistant Head Coach, while also retaining his duties with the offensive line.

Bullock, who has been coaching football since 1989, joined the Eagles after serving as offensive line/tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator at Tennessee State University for two seasons (2005-06). In that time, Bullock's offensive frontline paved the way for a sophomore running back to gain 1,233 ground yards.

During the previous four seasons, Bullock served as defensive line coach at Elon University (2004), East Tennessee State University (2003) and Gardner-Webb University (2001-02). In his last season at Gardner-Webb, he coached three All-Big South Conference linemen.

As offensive line coach at the University of New Hampshire (located in Durham, N.H.), five of Bullock's student-athletes claimed all-conference honors in just two seasons (1999-2000).

He spent the spring of 1999 as defensive coordinator and assistant general manager of the Dayton Skyhawks of the Indoor Football League, prior to a three-year stint as assistant head coach/offensive coordinator/offensive line and tight ends coach/recruiting coordinator at Morgan State University (1996-98).

Bullock served as head football coach at Immokalee (Fla.) High School during the 1995 campaign, guiding his squad to the 4A playoffs with some help from an All-American and future N.F.L. standout named Edgerrin James.

Prior to his high school head coaching debut, Bullock was a defensive line coach/recruiting coordinator at Moorehead State University (1994). He has also held graduate assistant coaching positions at Penn State University (1992-93) and the University of Michigan (1990-91), where he earned a master's degree in kinesiology in 1992.

Bullock received his bachelor's degree in exercise science in 1990 from Pennsylvania State University, where he played defensive tackle. As a player for Penn State, he was a part of two consecutive trips to national championship games, including a loss to Oklahoma followed by a victory over the University of Miami in the 1987 Fiesta Bowl to win the national title.

Bullock has also worked summer N.F.L. internships with the Cleveland Browns (2001), Miami Dolphins (2000) and New England Patriots (1998).

He and his wife, Elaine, are the proud parents of a son, Luther.
