Delaware State Hornets Making Progress On Search For Football Coach -- Maynor and Milstead Leads the Pack

DOVER, Delaware — It’s been nearly a month and a half since Delaware State University decided to change football coaches.

The Hornets are making progress in the search for a replacement for Kenny Carter.

Delaware State hosted the first round of interviews for the open position in late December, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The new coach could be named later this month.

Two names that have come up in the coaching search are former DelState offensive lineman Rod Milstead and former Hampton University head coach Connell Maynor. Neither could be reached for comment for this story.

Milstead’s name was expected to be mentioned. He’s also the most familiar to Hornet fans.

He graduated from Delaware State in 1992 before being selected in the fifth round of the NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. He played eight years in the NFL and won a Super Bowl with the San Francisco 49ers.
