北卡州立大学主帅搜寻聚焦校友里弗斯:已开始物色助教人选

位于北卡罗来纳州韦克县罗利市的北卡罗来纳州立大学橄榄球队主教练搜寻在11月4日出现重大进展。据《今日美国》报道,该校已把前职业橄榄球明星四分卫菲利普·里弗斯作为新任主教练的首要人选,里弗斯本人也已经开始物色潜在的助教团队成员。
里弗斯曾在北卡州立大学效力,创造了连续51场首发的校队纪录,他的17号球衣已被学校退役。在16个完整赛季的职业生涯中,他八次入选职业碗,并获得2013年度最佳复出球员奖。北卡州立大学本赛季中途解雇了执教14年的主教练戴夫·多伦,球队急需一位能够迅速稳定军心的新帅。
据知情人士透露,学校此前还面试了另一位校友、现役职业四分卫拉塞尔·威尔逊,但里弗斯目前处于领先位置。尽管从高中教练直接跃升大学主教练的路径并不寻常,业内人士认为里弗斯丰富的职业赛场经验和对母校的深厚感情将成为他的优势。校方尚未正式宣布任命,搜寻工作仍在进行中。

NC State Coaching Search Focuses on Alumnus Philip Rivers, Who Is Already Sounding Out a Staff
The search for a new head football coach at North Carolina State University, in Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina, took a major step on November 4. According to USA TODAY Sports, the school has made former NFL star quarterback Philip Rivers its primary focus to become the next head coach, and Rivers has already begun sounding out potential members of his staff.
Rivers played at NC State, where he set the school record with 51 consecutive starts and had his No. 17 jersey retired. Across 16 full NFL seasons, he was an eight-time Pro Bowl selection and the 2013 NFL Comeback Player of the Year. NC State fired Dave Doeren midseason after 14 years leading the Wolfpack and needs a coach who can quickly steady the program.
The school also interviewed another alumnus, current NFL quarterback Russell Wilson, according to reports, but Rivers is in the lead. Although a jump from high school coach to college head coach is unusual, those in the industry say Rivers' extensive professional experience and deep ties to his alma mater work in his favor. The school has not formally announced a hire, and the search continues.
