The Chicago Bears’ Week 5 High School Coach of the Week is Miles Osei of Elk Grove. Below is a snippet from the Bears honoring Osei:
“On Sept. 23, Coach Osei helped lead his team, the Elk Grove Grenadiers (5-0), to a 28-14 home conference game victory against the Buffalo Grove Bison (2-3) of Buffalo Grove for the first time since 2015. Into his sixth season, he helped keep the Grenadiers undefeated through their first five games of the season, the first time since 2004, which also gives them eligibility for the playoff. In addition, this is yet to be Elk Grove’s best starting season since 2013; they have won a combine of eight games for the past eight seasons. The former quarterback for Prospect High School and wide receiver for the University of Illinois, Osei was named the head coach for the Elk Grove varsity football program in 2017. Before starting his new role in Elk Grove, he was an offensive coordinator at Wheeling High School for two years. Osei was also the sophomore basketball coach at Wheeling and an assistant varsity baseball coach at Buffalo Grove. The Grenadiers will host the Prospect Knights (4-1) on Friday.”
