After 42 seasons as a college football coach, Dave McMichael announced his retirement on Friday (June 30). Arriving at Kent State in 2011, McMichael served as special teams coordinator and tight ends coach.
"I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Paul Haynes, the coaches I've worked with and the wonderful players I've had the privilege of coaching," McMichael said. "After careful thought, I made the difficult decision to accept an infrequently occurring University separation program. Retirement will enable me to spend more quality time with my family."
McMichael's coaching career began as a graduate assistant at his alma mater, Bowling Green in 1975.
