Aaron Price enters his second season with Northern Arizona in 2020-21. In Price's first year, three players from his positional groups earned All-Big Sky honors. Kicker Luis Aguilar (First Team), punter DJ Arnson (First Team) and running back Joe Logan (Second Team) all landed postseason recognition. Additionally, kicker Luis Aguilar was named the 2019 Fred Mitchell Award winner, presented annually to the nation's top collegiate placekicker in the FCS.
Price took charge of the Lumberjacks' special teams and running backs after more than 20 years of collegiate coaching experience at nine different universities. Price has been part of seven bowl teams as a coach or player, including three at UTEP and four at his alma mater Washington State.
Â
Price's most recent stop within the collegiate coaching ranks came as the offensive coordinator at Humboldt State University (Calif.) in 2016. He directed a prolific Humboldt State offense that saw individual players break the program's single-season passing and career rushing records.
Â
Prior to Humboldt State, he spent the previous three seasons as the quarterbacks coach at Tulane (2013-15) after spending nine years at UTEP (2004-12) working with his father, legendary head coach Mike Price. Price served his final four seasons as the Miners' offensive coordinator after his initial four as the wide receivers/quarterbacks and kickers coach.

Price also spent time on the coaching staffs at Alabama (2003), Washington State (2001-02, 1995-97), Idaho State (1999-01), Missouri Western State (1998) and Cal Poly (1994).
