In 2017, Darryl Bullock joined the Howard University football staff as its running game coordinator/offensive line coach.
After his first season, he coached one of the top rushing attacks in the nation, led by All-MEAC First Team honoree Gerald Wright.
Before joining the Bison, Bullock was an assistant coach at Chowan University for three seasons (2014-16).
Prior to his arrival at Chowan, Bullock was an assistant coach with Hampton University for three years (2011-13) where he served as the team’s offensive line coach. In 2012, Bullock’s offensive line helped the Pirates average 148.1 rushing yards per game, which was fifth-best in the MEAC. That same offensive line paved the way for Jeremiah Schwartz to rush for 1,043 yards, leading the MEAC with 115.9 rushing yards per game and becoming the first Pirate to record a 1,000-yard rushing season since 2009.
Bullock came to Hampton from North Carolina Central, where he began as an offensive line coach during the 2007 season. Following the 2007 campaign, he was elevated to the rank of Assistant Head Coach, and in 2010, he was elevated to Interim Head Football Coach.
Bullock brings decades of coaching experience at the high school and college level.
Bullock, who has been coaching football since 1989, joined the Eagles after serving as offensive line/tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator at Tennessee State University for two seasons (2005-06). In that time, Bullock's offensive frontline paved the way for a sophomore running back to gain 1,233 ground yards.
During the previous four seasons, Bullock served as defensive line coach at Elon University (2004), East Tennessee State University (2003) and Gardner-Webb University (2001-02). In his last season at Gardner-Webb, he coached three All-Big South Conference linemen.
As offensive line coach at the University of New Hampshire (located in Durham, N.H.), five of Bullock's student-athletes claimed all-conference honors in just two seasons (1999-2000).
He spent the spring of 1999 as defensive coordinator and assistant general manager of the Dayton Skyhawks of the Indoor Football League, prior to a three-year stint as assistant head coach/offensive coordinator/offensive line and tight ends coach/recruiting coordinator at Morgan State University (1996-98). In February 1999, Coach Bullock had a stint as the interim head football coach at Morgan State.
Bullock served as head football coach at Immokalee (Fla.) High School during the 1995 campaign, guiding his squad to the 4A playoffs with some help from All-American and future NFL standout Edgerrin James.
Prior to his high school head coaching debut, Bullock was a defensive line coach/recruiting coordinator at Moorehead State University (1994). He has also held an offensive line coaching internship at Penn State University (1992-93) and the graduate assistant defensive line coach at the University of Michigan (1990-91), where he earned a master's degree in Kinesiology in 1992.
In 1990, Bullock received his bachelor's degree in exercise science from Penn State University, where he played defensive tackle under legendary head coach Joe Paterno. As a player for Penn State, he was a part of two consecutive trips to national championship games, including a victory over the University of Miami in the 1987 Fiesta Bowl.
Bullock has also worked summer NFL internships with the Dallas Cowboys (2009), Cleveland Browns (2001), Miami Dolphins (2000) and New England Patriots (1998).
He is the proud father of a son, Luther.
