Dave Doeren
Head Coach
Doeren walked into the Wendell H. Murphy Football Center on Dec. 1, 2012, he saw the words from Rudyard Kiplings poem Law of the Jungle emblazoned on the wall outside the Wolfpack lockerroom. The phrase immediately resonated with the young coach and by the time he met with his new team for the first time, he had taken the meaning of those words and compacted it to a simple phrase that would become the blueprint by which his teams would operate: 1Pack1Goal. Doerens one goal for the Wolfpack To become a championship team. He makes no bones about his desire for his team to compete for a championship on a conference and national level. He believed then, and is even more sure now, that the only way to play at a championship level is to work hard together to get there. He knows that it isnt an overnight process and is committed to doing it the right way. Although he was one of the youngest coaches in the nation when he was named the 34th head football coach in NC State history, Doeren brought two decades of experience into the position. His proven process has already paid off in results. Doeren has guided the Wolfpack to back-to-back bowl games and has coached bowl eligible teams in 11 of his 14 years in Division 1. In his three years, 67 members of the Wolfpack football squad have earned their degrees. In 2015, he took one of the nations youngest teams and went to battle against three teams that ended the regular season ranked in the top 10. NC State won four road games in 2015, more than any Wolfpack squad since 2002. No other State team has turned in more road victories since 1957. The team posted numbers on offense and special teams that were among the top marks in school history. In 2014, his second year as the head coach at NC State, his team was the second-most improved in the Power 5 conferences. The Wolfpack more than doubled its win total from the previous season, earned a bowl victory and posted its highest team GPA in program history. The 2014 Wolfpack squad was only the second in school history to score 40 or more points in five regular season games and posted its best rushing average since 1992. Despite the tough league schedule in 2015, the team posted four 40+ point games and an almost identical rushing output. Doeren also believes that a championship mindset involves service. He reminds the young men under his leadership of the importance of team before self. He has also built a program that prides it self in community service. Since he was named head coach, members of his teams have turned in over 5,000 collective hours of community service since he took over as head coach. His team has won the NC State Athletics Community Service Award each of the past two years. No one outworks his staff when it comes to recruiting. That commitment has paid off in the Wolfpacks highest rated recruiting class in over a decade in 2014. Doeren, who has packed a careers worth of experience into his 22 years in the coaching profession, is a living example of a single-minded focus on a goal. After eschewing medical school to follow his passion, he climbed rapidly through the coaching ranks. He came to NC State after leading the program at Northern Illinois to its most successful two years in program history. His first Husky squad won the schools first Mid-American Conference Championship since 1983 and tied the school record with 11 wins. His second version repeated as league champions and set a new school record by posting 12 victories for the season and earned a trip to the Orange Bowl - the first BCS berth ever for a MAC school. Doeren was a finalist for several national coach of the year awards following the 2012 campaign. Under Doerens leadership, NIU boasted the nations longest conference winning streak with 17 straight wins versus MAC opponents. The Huskies never lost a home game during his tenure in DeKalb, winning a dozen home contests in his two seasons to extend the nations longest home winning streak to 21 games. The Huskies Academic Progress Rate (APR) ranked among the top five nationally as well. Prior to his stint in DeKalb, Doeren spent five seasons in the Big Ten at Wisconsin, where he served as defensive coordinator and linebackers coach. During Doerens time in Madison, the Badgers posted a 49-15 overall mark and played in the Champs Sports Bowl twice, the Outback Bowl, the Capital One Bowl and the Rose Bowl. For his first two seasons in Madison, he served as co-defensive coordinator/recruiting coordinator/linebackers coach and in 2008, was named the primary defensive coordinator. Doeren arrived at Wisconsin after four seasons (2002-05) at the University of Kansas, where he served as linebackers coach and recruiting coordinator for three seasons before being promoted to co-defensive coordinator under head coach Mark Mangino. During Doerens time at Kansas, the Jayhawks ended a seven-year bowl drought, earning bids to the 2003 Tangerine Bowl and the 2005 Ft. Worth Bowl. The opponent in that first bowl appearance was a Philip Rivers-led NC State team. In 2000 and 2001, Doeren coached the secondary at NCAA Division I-AA (now Football Championship Subdivision) powerhouse Montana, also serving as the Grizzlies recruiting coordinator for one year. Montana advanced to the the I-AA national championship game in 2000, losing by two points, but returned to win the national title the following season. The Grizzlies posted a 28-3 record and won two Big Sky Conference championships in his two years with the program and he coached five All-Americans, four All-Big Sky performers and two league defensive MVPs. Doeren grew up right outside of Kansas City, where he watched his grandfather, Thomas Glennon, coach high school basketball and track. He loved the respect his grandfather commanded from his players, even after he retired from coaching. When he left for college at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, his goals were to play football, earn a pre-med degree, go to med school and become an orthopedic doctor. He accomplished the first two. He lettered at tight end for the Bulldogs, catching 19 catches for 237 yards for his career. He majored in pre-medical biology, earning Academic All-American as a senior. He took the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). His plans for the future changed, however, during the summer between his junior and senior years when his former coach at Bishop Miege High School asked him to lead seven-on-seven drills. Doeren says from that moment on, he decided he wanted to be a coach. He pursued that goal with a relentlessness that never wavered. Instead of heading to med school, he landed his first coaching job in 1994, right there in Kansas at Shawnee Mission High School. His collegiate coaching career began just a year later, when he was named an assistant coach at Drake, leading the linebackers from 1995-97 before adding defensive coordinator chores in 1997. He also earned his masters degree from Drake in educational leadership. Doeren got his first taste of a bowl experience as a defensive graduate assistant at the University of Southern California. During his stint with the Trojans, he began work on his Ph.D. Doeren met his wife Sara while he was coaching at Drake and she was a nursing student. The couple has three sons: Jacob (17), Luke (14) and Connor (10).

Homolka has been named the Wolfpack's Director of Player Personnel. A native of Holyrood, Kansas, Homolka was on the football staff at Marshall for three years, where he spent directing the Herd's high school relations. He also spent time on the staffs at the University of Charleston and Northern Illinois. He began his coaching career at Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas, where he coached the running backs in 2006 and the receivers in 2007, and helped lead the squad to an NCAA Division II playoff appearance. "I'm really excited about the addition of Cullen Homolka as our director of player personnel," said Doeren. "He has a wealth of experience at many levels and his different skill sets will be a huge asset to our program. He played on the junior college and BCS levels, has coached at the Division II level and has coached and been the director of high school relations at a Division I program." Homolka joins the Wolfpack staff after spending the 2013 campaign as the head coach at Fairland High School in Proctorville, Ohio. He led a team that had finished with a 2-8 overall record and a 0-7 mark in conference play in 2012 to a 7-4 finish this season, an Ohio Valley Conference championship and a berth in the state playoffs. It marked the school's first conference title in 20 years. He was named a district, conference and regional AP coach of the year and was selected to coach in the Ohio North-South Football Classic. "It is an honor to be working for Coach Doeren and the NC State football family," said Homolka. "I will do whatever I can to help put NC State where it belongs on the national stage." Homolka started his collegiate playing career at Garden City Community College before transferring to Kansas, where he played fullback and was a special teams standout from 2003-05. He earned his B.A. in history in 2006 and earned a spot on the Athletic Director's and Big 12 Honor Roll in 2003, 2004 and 2005. As a prep player at Claflin High School, he led his team to 51 straight victories, three state titles and one state runner-up finish from 1997-2000. Homolka, who earned a Master's from Marshall in 2010, is married to the former Kristin Ritter and has three children: Trey (15) and Abigail (13) and a newborn son: Ritter.

"He has a wealth of experience at many levels and his different skill sets will be a huge asset to our program. He played on the junior college and BCS levels, has coached at the Division II level and has coached and been the director of high school relations at a Division I program." Homolka joins the Wolfpack staff after spending the 2013 campaign as the head coach at Fairland High School in Proctorville, Ohio. He led a team that had finished with a 2-8 overall record and a 0-7 mark in conference play in 2012 to a 7-4 finish this season, an Ohio Valley Conference championship and a berth in the state playoffs. It marked the school's first conference title in 20 years. He was named a district, conference and regional AP coach of the year and was selected to coach in the Ohio North-South Football Classic. "It is an honor to be working for Coach Doeren and the NC State football family," said Homolka. "I will do whatever I can to help put NC State where it belongs on the national stage." Homolka started his collegiate playing career at Garden City Community College before transferring to Kansas, where he played fullback and was a special teams standout from 2003-05. He earned his B.A. in history in 2006 and earned a spot on the Athletic Director's and Big 12 Honor Roll in 2003, 2004 and 2005. As a prep player at Claflin High School, he led his team to 51 straight victories, three state titles and one state runner-up finish from 1997-2000. Homolka, who earned a Master's from Marshall in 2010, is married to the former Kristin Ritter and has three children: Trey (15) and Abigail (13) and a newborn son: Ritter.
