Early life

Growing up in Oakmont, Pennsylvania, Shoop played quarterback in high school, earning a scholarship to continue his football career at The University of the South. Shoop was a member of the Tigers football team from 1987–90, starting from 1988–90.[1] As a senior captain in 1990, Shoop lead the Tigers to a Collegiate Athletic Conference title.[2]

Coaching career

Early career

Shoop began his coaching career as a volunteer quarterbacks coach at Dartmouth College in 1991. He served as a graduate assistant at Vanderbilt University from 1992 to 1994, where he earned a Master of Education degree from Vanderbilt's Peabody School of Education.

Carolina Panthers

Shoop spent four seasons with the Carolina Panthers, where he began his NFL coaching career at the age of 25. Shoop was an offensive quality control assistant for the Panthers from 1995 to 1996. He served as quarterbacks coach for Carolina from 1997 to 1998.

Chicago Bears

Shoop worked five seasons (1999–2003) for the Chicago Bears under head coach Dick Jauron.[3] He served as the quarterbacks coach in 1999 and 2000. He was named offensive coordinator for the last four games of the 2000 season following incumbent Gary Crowton's departure for the head coaching position at Brigham Young University. Shoop then spent the next three seasons as the offensive coordinator (2001–2003).

James "Big Cat" Williams, the Bears Pro Bowl offensive lineman, nicknamed the offense "The Run and Shoop" during Shoop's tenure as offensive coordinator.[4]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Shoop was quarterbacks coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2004 under head coach Jon Gruden.[3]

Oakland Raiders

Shoop then coached for the Oakland Raiders where he served as quarterbacks coach in 2005, the tight ends coach in 2006, and as offensive coordinator for the final five games of the 2006 season.[5]

North Carolina

In January 2007, Shoop left the Raiders to become the offensive coordinator of the North Carolina Tar Heels football team.[6]

Purdue

On January 24, 2013, Purdue University head football coach, Darrell Hazell hired Shoop to be the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the Boilermakers football team after taking a year off from coaching.[7] Purdue's offensive struggled in 2013, as Purdue was shut out in back-to-back games for the first time in 60 years, and struggled to reach 300 yards of total offense on a weekly basis.[8]
