Dana Bible, a St. Xavier High School graduate who played defensive back for the University of Cincinnati Bearcats and later coached quarterbacks for UC, Miami University and the Cincinnati Bengals, retired from coaching on Friday.
Bible, 67, coached QBs at UCLA for the past three seasons. He started his coaching career as a graduate assistant for the Bearcats, and coached UC's QBs in 1978 and 1979. He returned to the school as offensive coordinator and QBs coach in 1994.
Bible coached MU's wide receivers in 1981 and returned to Oxford in 1989 as offensive coordinator and QBs coach.
He coached the Bengals' quarterbacks from 1990 to 1992, when Boomer Esiason was the starter.
Social media reactions:
The Enquirer's Paul Daugherty wrote about Bible in 2017 and again last month. Bible coached Atlanta Falcons QB Matt Ryan at Boston College, under then-head coach and fellow St. X grad Tom O’Brien.
Bible also coached at North Carolina State, San Diego State and Stanford, and for the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers.
