Aug 17th, 2022: "Taylor, Miller named coordinators as Gee-Gees football set staff for 2022"

With a mix of updates and new additions, the Ottawa staff continues to take shape under head coach Marcel Bellefeuille in his fifth overall season at the helm of the Garnet and Grey.

Headlining updates to the staff are Nathan Taylor and Brad Miller, who will be taking on new coordinator roles for the upcoming season.

Taylor, who joined Ottawa in 2016 has served in a variety of roles with the Gee-Gees, most recently holding the post of Special Teams Coordinator and Receivers Coach. This season, he will move to Offensive Coordinator while continuing to serve as positional coach with the receivers.

Miller joined the Ottawa staff as Linebackers Coach in 2021 with a long coaching resume at various levels including the NFL and CFL. For the upcoming season, Miller will take over as Special Teams Coordinator while still working positionally with the linebackers.

The pair join defensive coordinator Jean-Vincent Posy-Audette to round out the staff's trio of coordinators. 

Four familiar faces to the program will highlight the changes on the positional coaching front for the season.

Brock Flemming rejoins his alma mater to serve as Offensive Line Coach. A native of Gatineau, Flemming played college football at Colgate, before returning home to play two seasons with the Gee-Gees in the early 2000s. In 2002, he was named a First Team All-Canadian at tackle, before playing parts of two seasons with the Montreal Alouettes. Since, he founded the Canadian Football Institute in Ottawa.

Marco Dubé will take the post of Running Backs Coach for the 2022 season after serving for two seasons on the defensive side of the ball with the Gee-Gees. Along with his experience in Ottawa, Dubé has coached in CEGEP with Cégep de l'Outaouais and Cégep Beauce-Appalaches following his time playing at York and with Outaouais.

Vincent Campbell also returns to his alma mater to serve as the Quarterbacks Coach. Campbell played receiver and returned kicks for the Gee-Gees from 2012-14. Following his time at Ottawa, Campbell turned to coaching where he worked in the CFL with Saskatchewan (2022), Edmonton (2021), and Ottawa (2019), as well as in France and collegiately at Simon Fraser.

Alex Labonté will rejoin the Gee-Gees coaching staff for the season, after previously coaching with the team in 2019. Labonté played linebacker at Ottawa from 2011-14 and has served as Head Coach of the Cornwall Wildcats U18 team since 2020.
