Hope he ends up coaching on the sidelines of Kyle one of these days. Sounds like he is really loved by his old coaches and teammates.
Murphy arrived in Green Bay this week as one of three interns on the Packers coaching staff. He plans to work with the team through the rest of the June organized team activities (OTAs) and then continue through the first three weeks of training camp in July and early August. He'll then return to the coaching job he began earlier this spring at Trinity Valley Community College in Athens, Texas, near his hometown of Chapel Hill.
"We thought very highly of Terrence as both a player and as a person," Head Coach Mike McCarthy (http://www.packers.com/team/coaches/mccarthy_mike/) said. "It's unfortunate that his playing career ended prematurely. I'm excited to now give the young man an opportunity to advance his coaching career - the thing young coaches often need the most is an opportunity. As I told Terrence the day he left here (in 2006), he'll always be a Packer."
Murphy certainly was reminded of that on Monday, a whirlwind first day. He was introduced at the morning team meeting to chants of "T-Murph!" and other whoops and hollers from his former teammates.
