Cruise Coulter returned to Bullitt East in 2024 and currently serves as the Head Freshmen Coach and Varsity Quarterbacks Coach. A Bullitt East alumnus, Coulter returned to his alma mater after playing college football and gaining coaching experience at Southern High School and Louisville Male High School. He also teaches Physical Education and Health at Bullitt East.
After graduating from Bullitt East, Coulter continued his football career at Campbellsville University, where he played tight end for the Tigers. His college career gave him valuable playing experience before he transitioned into coaching.
Coulter began his high school coaching career at Southern High School before later joining the staff at Louisville Male. His time at both programs helped broaden his coaching experience and provided opportunities to work with players at different stages of development before returning to Bullitt East.
In 2024, Coulter returned to his alma mater as the Head Freshmen Coach. During his first two seasons back at Bullitt East, his responsibilities centered on leading the freshmen program and helping young players make the transition into high school football. In that role, Coulter introduced players to the Chargers’ systems while establishing the habits, expectations and standards needed to eventually contribute at the varsity level.
Coulter continued as Head Freshmen Coach in 2025, providing consistency at an important developmental level of the program. His background as a former Charger, college player and high school assistant has allowed him to help connect the freshmen experience directly to the expectations of the varsity program.
In 2026, Coulter maintained his leadership of the freshmen program while adding the role of Varsity Quarterbacks Coach. The position allows him to expand his influence within the offense while continuing to oversee the development of the program’s youngest players.
Coulter’s role gives him a unique connection throughout the Bullitt East program. From leading players through their first season of high school football to developing the varsity quarterbacks, he now has the opportunity to influence Charger players at multiple stages of their careers. His return to Bullitt East reflects another former Charger bringing his playing and coaching experience back home to help develop the next generation of the program.
