Robb Akey Biography

Robb Akey is one of the most popular and richest Head Coach who was born on July 24, 1966 in Colorado Springs, United States. Robb Alan Akey, a former American football coach, was born July 24, 1966. He is the current defensive coordinator at Central Michigan University. From 2007 to 2012, he was the University of Idaho’s head football coach. When Rob Spear hired Akey, he made Idaho the fourth head football coach in 37 months. Akey led the Vandals to their first bowl win in over a decade. However, Akey’s contract was ended on October 21, 2012 after a disappointing 1-7 start in 2012. While he was Idaho’s head coach, he achieved a 20-50 record (.286).

Akey, the Vandals’ head coach, stated that he opposed the Battle of the Palouse rivalry match with Washington State every other year when he was hired. Akey stated that he prefers it as a “once in a while thing” to reduce potential “off-field” problems between rival programs located only eight miles apart. It was first played in 1998, and then for ten years consecutively. The game was last played in Akey’s first season in 2007.

Akey succeeded Dennis Erickson, who left his second stint at Idaho after just ten months for Arizona State of the Pac-10. Erickson was preceded by Nick Holt, who voluntarily departed after only two seasons, compiling nine losses in each. Tom Cable was fired in late 2003, after four disappointing seasons (11–35, .239).

Akey’s tenure as Vandals head coach ended in 2012 on October 21, when Idaho fired him following a 70–28 loss to Louisiana Tech, moving the team’s overall record to 1–7 for the season.

Akey was an assistant college coach for 19 seasons. He began his career at Weber State in 1988 as the assistant defensive line coach. Akey served as a defensive line coach, recruiting coordinator and special team coordinator at Weber State from 1989 to 1994. Akey worked as an assistant at Northern Arizona from 1995 to 1998. He was first a special teams coordinator and linebackers coach, then as the defensive coordinator in 1996 to 1998.
