Now in his eighth season as the LIU Post quarterbacks and wide receivers coach, Jonathan Gill returned to his Long Island roots in 2004 after competing for four seasons at quarterback with the University of Akron Zips.
Gill, who also serves as the team’s strength and conditioning coach, was instrumental in helping develop the play of honorable-mention All-America signal-caller, Rob Blount. The 2005 Northeast-10 and ECAC MVP, Blount’s 2,995 passing yards during the team’s national quarterfinals run are the most in Division II history by a back who totaled 1,000 yards rushing in the same season.
Gill played a key role as a member of Akron’s scout offense in the 2001 campaign, and his duties helped aid the Zips’ defense in holding opponents to 17 points or less in seven games that year.
The Flushing, N.Y. native was a talented two-sport athlete at St. Francis Prep in Queens. He earned All-City and All-Conference recognition on the gridiron, before competing in the New York City Senior Bowl.
