Thomas Lee Cable, or Tom Cable, as many will say in the topic of conversation during the post-game fanfare this fall, has had an interesting career. From his career stops, to his personality, to his approach to coaching, this man has some favorable credentials.

On Your Mark, Get Ready, Succeed

Cable was a three year starter at guard with the Idaho Vandals for Dennis Erickson. The quarterback at the time was Scott Linehan, the current head coach of the St. Louis Rams. Tom's professional career as a player, however, was uneventful. Having gone undrafted, the Baltimore Colts signed him as a free agent. That one year was the only notation in his NFL resume as a player.

His first stops as a coach read as defensive line coach for Fullerton State in 1990 and as an offensive line coach for the UNLV Rebels in 1991. An interesting side note is that Linehan served as the quarterbacks coach there in the same year.

It was not until his next destination that Cable's career began to take shape.
