Michael Vick, one of the most electrifying quarterbacks in NFL history, will become the next head coach at Norfolk State University, according to multiple reports Tuesday. A Newport News, Virginia, native, Vick starred at Virginia Tech and led the Hokies to the BCS National Championship Game in 2000, losing to Florida State. Vick will be the latest former NFL star to become a head coach at a historically Black college or university. Deion Sanders spent two years at Jackson State, compiling a 27-6 record, before he left for Colorado in 2022. Eddie George just completed his fourth season at Tennessee State and led the Tigers to the FCS postseason.
