Football has always been a family affair for JMU head coach Bob Chesney.
That hasn’t changed since he arrived in Harrisonburg.
At his introductory press conference back in December, family was a central theme in his remarks. As many of his relatives sat to his right including his
wife, three children, both parents and an aunt and uncle. Chesney shared stories of his family working together on the
same high school football staff and accompanying him during campus visits when he was being interviewed.
As Chesney prepares to enter year 14 as a head coach and his first at both JMU and in the FBS, his father, Bob Chesney
Sr., is still on the sidelines, helping wherever he can.
