2022: McKinley came aboard the CSC coaching staff in spring of 2021, following five years competing with the CSC football program. Together with CSC Head Football Coach Jay Long, he works with the Eagles' offensive linemen, where center Michael DeCamillis earned All-RMAC recognition in the fall of 2022.
As an Eagles offensive lineman, he played in every game from 2018 to 2020, starting occasionally when needed. For his redshirt season, in 2016, he was awarded the Scout Team Offensive MVP award by his teammates.
McKinley earned a place on the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference academic honor roll every season he was eligible, graduating from CSC with a degree in health and physical education in the fall of 2020.
