With the integration of Robert Morris University Illinois and Roosevelt University official, football is coming to Roosevelt beginning this fall.

Lakers Head Coach Jared Williamson has spent the last nine seasons as the only head coach at Robert Morris, building the program from the ground up and competing in its inaugural season in 2011. He led the Eagles to their first ever Mid-States Football Association Midwest League title in 2016, earning the program's inaugural berth in the NAIA National Football Championship Series that year as well.

Coach Williamson has posted a career record of 49-45 in his nine seasons at RMU and has also stressed academic success with his student-athletes, totaling 61 NAIA Scholar-Athletes in his nine years and 85 All-Academic team selections in seven seasons of competition in the MSFA.
