Brooks Bollinger's career as an NFL quarterback over, but his head coaching career is just starting.

Bollinger, who played for the Jets, Vikings, Cowboys and Lions, has been named as the new head football coach at Hill-Murray School in Minnesota. The former Wisconsin Badger, who played his high school football in Grand Forks, North Dakota, takes over for Vince Conway, who retired after 13 years as head coach.

Bollinger is the second former NFL QB to go back to his high school roots.   Gus Frerotte was named head coach at John Burroughs School in St. Louis two weeks ago.
