"Nayes, McKillip to Handle Football Operations New Director of Operations has 14 years of experience in NFL operations. Raleigh, NC -- NC State head football coach Dave Doeren has filled the operational side of his staff, announcing Monday that Bill Nayes, who has 14 years of experience working for NFL teams in operations, has been named Director of Football Operations and Joe McKillip has been named Assistant Director. Nayes comes to the Wolfpack after spending four years with the San Francisco 49ers, where he served as special assistant to the head coach. He worked under Jim Harbaugh for the past two seasons and for Coach Mike Singletary in his first two years with the organization. “I am very excited to be reunited with Bill Nayes, his wife Paige and their children Natalia and Joe,” said Doeren. “His NFL experience with the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers brings us not only a connection to the league that can benefit our program, but also great connections in the travel world that will be helpful. Bill is a very down-to-earth, professional guy that I know our players will enjoy being around. He has an ability to fit in when it comes to dealing with players, parents, administrators and fans. People seem to gravitate towards him. He will do a tremendous job representing our football program and our university.” Prior to his stint in San Francisco, Nayes was the assistant athletic director/director of football operations at Wisconsin for three years while Doeren was also on staff. With the Badgers, Nayes coordinated all team operations, including game scheduling, budgeting, team travel, camps, operational schedules and team bowl trips. He also served as a liaison between football and various departments, while also supervising office personnel. From 1999-2006, Nayes served as football operations coordinator/team travel with the Seattle Seahawks under then-Head Coach Mike Holmgren. During his seven years in Seattle, he was responsible for all aspects of the team’s travel, including the budget, team charters, hotel accommodations, meal arrangements and ground transportation. Nayes also organized the Seahawks’ training camp and mini-camps, as well as the team’s operational schedules. Nayes was originally hired in a full-time capacity by the Green Bay Packers in 1997 after serving as a training camp intern during the summers of 1995 and 1996. He worked under Holmgren as administrative assistant/football operations until 1999. “I’m excited to work with Coach Doeren again,” said Nayes. “I have a lot of respect for him as a person, a coach and a family man. I had never been to NC State before, but when he called and started telling me about it, I could tell in his voice how excited he was about the opportunity. Now that I’m here, I can see why. I look forward to moving my family here and doing everything I can to help the Wolfpack win football games.” Nayes served as a student football manager at Wisconsin before moving into a football operations assistant role upon graduation. During his career, he has been a part of six college bowl games, four international games and seven NFL postseason appearances, including three Super Bowls. Nayes graduated with a B.S. degree from Wisconsin in 1994. He and his wife, Paige, have a daughter, Natalia (8), and a son, Joe (5). In his role as assistant director of football operations, McKillip will assist Nayes with team logistics and day-to-day operations. These activities include fall camp organization, game weekend arrangements for both home and away games, weekly team schedules, bowl game preparation, coordination of the spring football schedule and summer high school football camps. He will also assist with recruiting functions and external community relations. “Joe was my manager at Wisconsin and he spent four years on the field and in the press box with me,” said Doeren. ‘He followed me to Northern Illinois and did a tremendous job there. He has worn about every hat there is in an operations role, from checking classes to serving as the advance guy in travel to being a mentor to our players. He takes great pride in his work and will do a great job at NC State building the bridge between campus and our players and coaches.” McKillip comes to Raleigh after spending the past two season with Doeren at Northern Illinois University. Last season, he served as the assistant director of football operations and on-campus recruiting coordinator after serving as the operations graduate assistant the previous year. A native of Burlington, Wisc., McKillip graduated from the University of Wisconsin, where he served as a student football manager for four seasons."

"We had playmakers? Outside of Palmer, we had basically no one that I would call a playmaker. Maybe Shadrach can become one, but the rest of our WR core was pretty awful as well as our TEs. Bunch of ball droppers..."

tell that to Bryan Underwood

1/7/2013 2:54:10 PM

Underwood had less impact down the stretch. Not sure if he was hurt. I don't remember him having any catches in the bowl game.

Good player. Maybe needs to work on routes. Dude can fly.

1/7/2013 3:31:04 PM

^^ Underwood was the Jerome Bettis of WRs. Dude would have 1 catch, but it would be a 30 yd TD. Not sure I'd call him a playmaker, but he was clutch when he needed to be in the end zone. He was ball dropper though as well.

^^^ Yeah that's the magnet board where they keep the players and their positions organized, usually by depth.


Haven't you ever seen a football movie?

Coach Jackson & Coach McNutt squaring off during last weekend's recruiting visit
(via https://twitter.com/CoachU_NCState)

1/15/2013 6:21:47 PM

they're both going to slip and fall, they should invest in some cleats

1/15/2013 6:25:27 PM

this is quoted from packman687 (who's a HS coach himself) on PI's boards about that when it was taking place.

Quote :

"I don't know about all of you, but I am really digging the vibe, energy, and enthusiasm from the new staff. Evidently tonight during the official visits, not only did they take the players down to the field, but Coach McNutt and Coach Jackson had some spirited one-on-one drills against each other in dress shoes. Jackson says that he smoked McNutt on a post route for a TD. This kind of energy HS kids love to see from college coaches and recruiters. This shows me that they have a passion for the game, not only coaching and teaching it, but also are willing to do what they can to sell the university and the experience."

Good news on an otherwise crappy night. He was the #9 ranked QB in the 2010 class per scout. Problem was Florida's other QB commit that year (Driskell) was ranked #1.

so what do we do next season ?

Weren't you the one who asked that exact question a few weeks ago? In addition to the transfer, we have a big rs junior who has two years of starting experience, transferred, and redshirted last year ( pet thomas), a sophomore (stocker), a freshman that just committed who had an offer from yale (sherriff) and a walk-on or two.

[Edited on February 5, 2013 at 9:44 AM. Reason : ]

2/5/2013 9:15:06 AM

We'll have 3 scholarship QBs and a walk-on(that earned a scholarship under TOB). Most likely starter is former 4-star QB that transferred here in Pete Thomas. Has college level experience and did OK given the talent around him. Then Stocker was highly regarded by our former coaches(had eyes for talent at QB) but curious on his conditioning. Not sure if he wore excessive padding but he looked like he gained quite a bit of weight last season. Then we have the new QB commit who will likely need to RS if at all possible.

We have just as much depth as we did last year, just not as much experience or knowledge of the system we'll be running.

2/5/2013 10:58:12 AM

^Word on the street is that Pete likes to grip it and rip it

2/5/2013 11:51:37 AM

speaking of word on the street, there is a rumor floating around that a currently UNC committed in-state 4* prospect is close to switching to NCSU and may do it on signing day

if that is true, that means it could be Brian Walker, RJ Prince, or Nazair Jones.

[Edited on February 5, 2013 at 3:13 PM. Reason : c]

2/5/2013 3:07:38 PM

according to rivals, unc only has two four-stars, and the only in-state is RB TJ Logan from Greensboro. (We already have 3 RBs and 5 or 6 WRs in this class)

[Edited on February 5, 2013 at 3:15 PM. Reason : i think Prince already signed]

2/5/2013 3:14:31 PM

i guess it depends on what site they're talking about

2/5/2013 3:15:02 PM

I hope he gets us an ACC Championship and a BCS Bowl appearance before he takes a better gig ...

2/5/2013 4:09:54 PM

He might get us to one but he won't be the coach

2/5/2013 8:56:24 PM

I'd be fine with that

[Edited on February 5, 2013 at 10:24 PM. Reason : way above my expectations]

2/5/2013 10:23:54 PM

Yep

2/5/2013 10:35:52 PM

this baby will lead us to an ACC Championship this season

2/5/2013 11:06:47 PM

I know the parents of that baby. I got a lot of Facebook notices to go vote for whatever their baby won
