Head Coach Paul Hamilton 6th Season Head Coach Paul Hamilton is in his sixth year at the helm of the Tornados, bringing with him 30 years of coaching experience at both the Division I and Division II levels, with 15 of those years as head coach. The Tornados have made strides in each of the past five seasons under Coach Hamilton as Brevard has hit significant milestones and records in each of his seasons with BC. Hamilton began his collegiate football coaching career at the Citadel in 1981 where he coached the receivers. He then moved on to East Tennessee State University where he coached the receivers in 1983 before coaching the quarterbacks in 1984-1985 and 1986-1987. Hamilton coached the quarterbacks and served as the offensive coordinator at Wofford College in 1988-1989. Coach Hamilton served his first coaching stint with the U.S. Air Force Academy from 1990-1996. During his last three seasons, he called the offensive plays for the Falcons in addition to serving as the quarterbacks coach. Air Force competed in four bowl games during Hamilton’s time there and ranked second nationally in rushing and in the top-25 total offense four times. Hamilton’s first break as a head coach came at East Tennessee State,
where he coached from 1997-2003 and where he amassed a record of 38-41. Hamilton then moved on to be the head coach at Elon in 2004 and 2005. In his first season as head coach he guided the Phoenix to two Southern Conference victories, a first in the school’s young history as a conference member. In 2006, Hamilton returned to the Air Force Academy to coach the fullbacks for his former college coach, Fisher DeBerry. Hamilton graduated in 1981 from Appalachian State University where he lettered for three years as quarterback under DeBerry. Hamilton earned his master’s degree in secondary education from The Citadel in 1986. Hamilton and his wife, Jane, a native of Spruce Pine, NC, have three children – a son, Kye and two daughters, Jenna and Alanna.
