Terry Shea Biography :

Terry Shea was named the Dolphins’ quarterbacks coach on February 19, 2007, bringing with him six years of experience in the NFL, including one as a coordinator. He also has been a head coach at the major college level for seven years.

Most recently, Shea was the quarterbacks coach with the Kansas City Chiefs the last two years, his second stint with the club. Under Shea’s tutelage, quarterback Trent Green earned the second Pro Bowl berth of his career in 2005 as he threw for more than 4,000 yards and compiled a passer rating of over 90.0. In 2006, Damon Huard, who played in 10 games, starting eight of them in place of the injured Green, amassed a career-best 98.0 passer rating, the second-best mark in the NFL last year. Prior to joining the Chiefs, Shea was the offensive coordinator with the Chicago Bears in 2004. Shea’s first three seasons as Kansas City’s quarterbacks coach (2001-03) coincided with the three most productive seasons of Green’s career to that point. He started all 16 games each of those three seasons, and in 2003, tossed for more than 4,000 yards for the first time in his career and was selected to his initial Pro Bowl berth.

Prior to entering the NFL ranks, Shea was the head coach at Rutgers University from 1996-2000, and during that span was instrumental in the development of quarterback Mike McMahon, currently with the CFL’s Toronto Argonauts. In 1998, Shea was named Big East Coach of the Year as the Scarlet Knights posted a record of 5-6.

Shea got his start in the coaching profession as a graduate assistant at the University of Oregon, his alma mater, from 1968-69. Following a six-year stint as an assistant coach at Mt. Hood Community College (1970-75), he latched on to his first full-time position at the Division I-A level when he was named defensive backs/special teams coach at Utah State in 1976. After two years in that spot, he switched sides of the ball, tutoring the quarterbacks and wide receivers from 1978-80 before being elevated to offensive coordinator in 1981, a position he held for the next three years. Two of his quarterbacks at Utah State Eric Hipple and Bob Gagliano went on to NFL careers. That preceded stops as offensive coordinator at both San Jose State (1984-86) and California (1987-89). In 1990, he returned to San Jose State as head coach, guiding the Spartans program for two years. In those two seasons, he led the school to a composite 15-6-2 record as they captured the Big West title both years. In 1990, he led the program to a mark of 9-2-1 and was named National Coach of the Year by Pro Football Weekly. In his two years, he helped develop future NFL Pro Bowl quarterback Jeff Garcia, who played at San Jose State in both of Shea’s years at the school. After two years at San Jose State, Shea moved on to Stanford where he was the associate head coach/offensive coordinator under Bill Walsh from 1992-94. Shea spent one year (1995) coaching the quarterbacks and running backs with the British Columbia Lions of the Canadian League prior to his appointment at Rutgers.

A native of San Mateo, California, Shea played quarterback at Oregon from 1964-67. He and his wife, Susan Town, have a daughter, Jennifer, and two sons, Garrett and Daniel Patrick.
