Rahne Finalizes Staff with Addition of Leon Wright

NORFOLK, Va. – Old Dominion University football head coach Ricky Rahne has hired Leon Wright to coach cornerbacks, completing Rahne's initial coaching staff with the Monarchs, he announced on Thursday.

"Leon brings a wealth of knowledge at the cornerback position. His ability to connect with people has helped him to be a successful recruiter at a variety of levels," Rahne said. "I'm excited to see what he can bring to Monarch Nation."

Wright comes to ODU after spending the 2019 season as cornerbacks coach at Mercer. The Bears allowed just 203.3 yards per game passing and finished 19th in FCS with 15 touchdown passes allowed.
