coach has been a smooth one and he did it in a fashion which is to be respect-ed. After completing his 12th and final season in the NFL with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2004 Compton retired from playing and in 2006 took an assistant coaching position at Tazewell High School in Tazewell, Va. After two years there he became the head coach at Pat-rick Henry High School in Emory, Va. un-til 2011 when he entered the collegiate ranks as the o!ensive line coach at NAIA Bluefield (Va.) College. Then in January of 2013 he accepted his current position at Fairmont State.

Compton came from humble beginnings. He was born in Richlands, Va. and raised in a double-wide trailer in McGuire Valley, Va. He went on to star at Richlands High School in baseball, wrestling and football where he attracted the attention of Division I coaches. He signed with WVU in 1988, redshirted and played for the Mountaineers from 1989-92 starting his final three seasons at center. His senior season he was a consensus All-Amer-ican selection and a first-team Academic All-American.

In the spring of 1993 Compton was selected in the third round of the NFL draft as the 68th overall pick by the Detroit Lions. He played eight seasons with the Lions, who made five playo! appearances during that span and he helped pave the way for NFL Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders.

In the second game of the 2001 season starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe endured a hard hit from New York Jets linebacker Mo Lewis which sidelined him for several weeks and opened the door for Brady who helped lead the Patriots to a division title and their first Super Bowl win – a 20-17 victory over the St. Louis Rams.
