Adams State University

Nick Gossage is entering his first season as a member of the Adams State Athletic Family. Fall 2025 will be his first season as the defensive line coach for the Grizzlies.

Gossage comes to Adams State from Chadron State, where he served during the 2023 season as a coaching assistant for the offensive line before returning to the playing field for the Eagles in fall 2024. While pursuing his master's degree, Gossage played eight games for the Eagles during the 2024 season as a member of the offensive line.

Before Chadron State, Gossage played football at Fort Hays State, where he spent three seasons on the offensive line. He contributed to a record-setting offense that led the MIAA in multiple categories, including total offense and yards per game, and helped two quarterbacks surpass 3,000 passing yards.

Gossage graduated from Fort Hays State in 2021 with a bachelor's degree in social sciences.
