A veteran play-caller with experience across collegiate football, the NFL, and the high school ranks, Grubb is widely recognized for his innovative offensive systems and quarterback development.

Grubb also developed standout offensive lines at Fresno State and Eastern Michigan, where his units ranked among the nation’s best in sacks allowed. A native of Kingsley, Iowa, Grubb earned his bachelor’s degree from Buena Vista University and a master’s degree from South Dakota State. He and his spouse, Stephanie, have one daughter, Falynn.
