Justin Weaver joined the Army West Point football staff in the spring of 2017.
Weaver was the defensive quality control coach for the 2018 season before transitioning to a member of the player personnel staff.
Weaver came to West Point after spending three years at the University of Wisconsin as the “Beyond the Game” Coordinator. The initiative assists student-athletes with the transition to the next level in their lives, including professional sports. He also developed and implemented programs and workshops that enhanced the student-athlete experience.
Prior to Wisconsin, Weaver was the defensive coordinator and linebackers coach at the University of Chicago from June 2012 until summer of 2014. He also was the special teams coordinator. During his time, the Maroons finished second in the UAA Conference and ranked in the top 30 nationally in five defensive categories. In 2012, senior linebacker Alex Dzierbicki played in the All-American Bowl, and Weaver’s three starting linebackers earned first team all-league honors in 2012 and 2013.
Before UChicago, Weaver spent the previous two seasons as the outside linebackers coach at his alma mater Lehigh University. During those two campaigns, the Mountain Hawks won 21 of 26 games, captured back-to-back Patriot League titles, and made a pair of NCAA playoff appearances.
As a collegiate athlete, Weaver played for Lehigh from 2004-07, during which time he was a member of two Patriot League champion squads (2004, 2006). He began his coaching career at Lehigh in 2008 as a student assistant concentrating on the defensive line, and moved to Morgan State University where he served a two-year stint as an assistant defensive line coach from 2008-10.
He earned a bachelor’s degree in Africana Studies from Lehigh in 2008 before receiving a master’s degree in African American studies from Morgan State in 2010.
