Navy football names Robert Green cornerbacks coach, Joe Coniglio defensive assistant

Navy head football coach Ken Niumatalolo has promoted Robert Green to cornerbacks coach and hired Joe Coniglio away from Kent State to serve as a defensive assistant, it was announced Wednesday.

This is Green’s ninth year with the Navy football program and 2021 will be his seventh season as an on-field coach. Lieutenant Colonel Green served two years as the Director of Player Development while still on active duty with the Marine Corps.

After five years as cornerbacks coach, Green was reassigned to a defensive assistant position when Brian Norwood was hired to coach that position group.
