Aairon Savage, joins the Army football staff for his first season as Defensive Quality Control.
In 2016, Savage coached sophomore safety Que’ Rose to his second All GAC safety honor. The 2016 year marked the first time in ten seasons that the Wonder Boys turned in back to back winning seasons. The Wonder Boys finished 3rd in the GAC in total defense with 10 interceptions.
In his first campaign at Arkansas Tech, Savage mentored a secondary led by 2nd Team GAC freshman safety Que’ Rose while Wonder Boys defense finish in the top 25 nationally. The Wonder Boys defense did its best work against highly-rated opposition, holding the nation's second-, third-, and twelfth-ranked offense to 125 yards below their season averages. The Wonder Boys picked up a big win in the Heart of Texas Bowl to cap a 9-3 campaign in 2015 with the second ranked defense in the conference. The resulting nine-win campaign was only the ninth time in school history that the nine-win threshold has been met, and ranks as the fourth-highest win total in school history.
Savage previously spent a season as a graduate assistant at Georgia Tech, working on the defensive side of the ball with primary responsibility for the safeties. The Yellow Jackets finished the year 10-3 capped off with an Orange Bowl victory.
In 2013, Savage was an assistant coach at Valdosta High School coaching the corner backs, where he was also a ninth-grade teacher. The Wildcats earned a playoff spot in the GHSA football playoffs.
The previous two years, Savage was on the staff at Auburn University. He was the Special Teams Quality Control in 2011 as the Tigers were Chik-Fli-A Bowl Champions. In 2012 Savage served as Defensive Quality Control.
Savage was a Freshman All-SEC and Freshman All-American (Rivals) defensive back in 2006 at Auburn University. He missed all of the 2008 and 2009 seasons with injuries. In the national title season of 2010, Savage started the first seven games before a season-ending injury.
Savage earned his bachelor's degree from Auburn in 2008 (Exercise Science) and his master's (Biomechanics) in 2010. He is married to the former Coleigh Danielle Brock.
