Danny Mock
College Scouting Coordinator
Now enjoying his 12th season with the Packers, Danny Mock is responsible for a variety of scouting services as the team's college scouting coordinator. Mock's duties include tracking Green Bay's scouts who scour the country looking for players, assigning scouting visits to colleges and heading up the computer operations for the team's annual draft preparations.
Mock gained his first National Football League experience as a member of the Atlanta Falcons' grounds crew from 1980-85. In addition to his duties on the field, Mock served as a film assistant from 1983-86. Following three seasons in the film department, the NFL moved to video and Mock was promoted to assistant video director by the Falcons in 1986.
After serving two years in that capacity, Mock turned to the player personnel side of football. For the following nine seasons (1988-96), he acted as the administrative assistant in the Falcons' player personnel department.
Having lived in the South his entire life, Mock headed north when he was named as the Packers' college scouting coordinator by then-Executive Vice President/ General Manager Ron Wolf on June 28, 1997.
The 47-year-old Mock attended Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College (1981-82) in Tifton, Ga., majoring in turf management and business.
Mock had earlier attended Gilbert (Ariz.) High School while growing up in the Phoenix area. He graduated from Duluth (Ga.) High School, where he lettered three times for the basketball team. During his sophomore basketball season, Mock was a teammate of 1980 Heisman Trophy winner George Rogers, who later would go on to star in football at the University of South Carolina. He also was elected team captain in basketball for his senior season, leading the school to the state quarterfinals.
Born in Statesville, N.C., Mock has two daughters, Elizabeth, 18, and Sarah, 14, and resides in De Pere, Wis.
Mock is a member of the National Football Foundation and the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association, acting as the Packers' liaison to the latter organization. He was recently awarded the Dave McClain Distinguished Service Award by the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association for his outstanding service to football in Wisconsin. He also serves as the video cameraman for the De Pere High School football team and has coached a youth girls summer basketball team in his spare time.
Mock is a fan of local sports teams, including the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay's women's and men's basketball teams, and Milwaukee Brewers. He also follows the Atlanta Braves.
