The relationship between University of West Florida head football coach Kaleb Nobles and new offensive coordinator Alvance Robinson is a unique one.
And to anyone looking from the outside in, it could be considered a little creepy sometimes.
There are times Nobles has a thought, and Robinson essentially finishes the sentence. When Robinson was a graduate assistant in 2019 and 2020 under head coach Pete Shinnick, Nobles was also an assistant for the Argos. The two “meshed very well on the headset,” with Nobles coaching quarterbacks and Robinson coaching wide receivers.
“Coach Nobles would send me a text and say, ‘Hey, this is what I’m thinking about.’ And I would send him a picture of my notebook and say, ‘I wrote this down earlier.’ It was amazing,” Robinson said. “It was like that the whole season in 2019.”
“Coach Alvance, he’s like family to me. That’s my brother,” Nobles said. “His relationships, his attention to detail, is something that stood out to me while we were working as assistant coaches. I wanted to get him here and tried to get him here as quick as I can. He’s done a great job early on in spring football.”
That chemistry continued, even after the pair departed from UWF in 2021. Nobles spent two years at Clemson University before returning to UWF as head coach in 2023. Robinson, for those two years, was at Division I Gardner-Webb as an assistant coach. Last year, Robinson made the job to professional football and was the wide receivers coach of the DC Defenders in the XFL.
