Monmouth College Athletics

Although he was a multiple letter winner in football and baseball, Ken Geiger’s greatest contribution to MC athletics occurred following his graduation. As a high school coach and administrator at Morton East and West high schools, he influenced many all-conference student athletes in football, wrestling and baseball to attend Monmouth. During MC’s 1972 undefeated football season, he served as offensive coordinator and scout for the Fighting Scots. He also coached at the University of Missouri for three years.

Geiger entered professional football in the 1980s as a scout for the Chicago Bears and was with the team when they won Super Bowl XX. He later worked for the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints. Internationally, he was a moving force in bringing American football to Europe, teaching football to European youths and representing the NFL as a clinician.
