Kevin Robson is stepping into his first head coaching role — and he's bringing serious pedigree with him. After 12 years as an assistant coach at Indiana University — where he also played from 2003 to 2006 — Robson has made the move to Loyola Chicago to take the reins of the Ramblers men's soccer program. Brooks sits down with Kevin to talk about what this new chapter looks like, why tapping into the talent-rich Chicago market will be critical to building his roster, and what it will take to get Loyola back to the NCAA Tournament and competing at the top of the Atlantic 10. With a deep connection to the game as both a player and a longtime assistant, Robson brings a clear vision — and the experience to back it up.
