The good news keeps coming for the Green and Gold, as Mark Kilam has selected Edmonton as the next stop on his coaching journey.
The University of Alberta graduate returns to Edmonton after spending two decades in Calgary with the Stampeders, where he cemented himself as one of the most highly respected coaches in the Canadian Football League. The Edmonton-born coach played linebacker for the University of Alberta from 1997-2001 and was a team captain for the Golden Bears. He graduated with a Bachelor of Physical Education degree, majoring in sport and performance.
Mark sat down for a one-on-one interview for the first time since the announcement of him joining the Double E.
He spoke about how his time in Edmonton was “meant to be” with everything aligning perfectly with the result being an exciting time for the organization:
The 45-year-old has been coaching football in Alberta since his university playing days with the Golden Bears in 2002. Kilam played linebacker and served as a team captain during his time on campus in Edmonton from 1997 to 2001. He was a defensive assistant for Cochrane High School when the Cobras went undefeated and won three provincial championships.
