Christopher Keevers (born 1966) is an American college football coach. He is head football coach at the University of Indianapolis (UIndy), a position he has held since 2019.
A native of Indianapolis, Keevers graduated from John Marshall High School on the city’s east side before moving on to Coffeyville Community College (Kansas), where he starred as a defensive lineman during the 1984 and 1985 seasons and made the Junior College All-American team as an Honorable Mention honoree. He then transferred to Purdue University, where he was a two-year starter in 1986 and 1987, prior to spending three seasons as a graduate assistant. Keevers won the team’s Leonard Wilson Award (for “unselfishness and dedication”) in 1987, and was also nominated for the athletic department’s Red Mackey Award (for “competitive spirit, a positive attitude, loyalty, self-discipline, hard work for the best interest of the team and a willingness to help others”). He earned a communication degree from Purdue in 1989, followed by a master’s degree in education administration in 1991. After leaving Purdue, Keevers worked for three seasons (1991 through 1993) as an assistant coach at St. Mary’s College of California (then a Division II program), coaching the defensive line and special teams while also serving as strength & conditioning coach.
Keevers joined the staff at UIndy in 1994, beginning a 25-year career in a variety of assistant roles, primarily coaching the defensive line and special teams (later also linebackers). Initially he also served as assistant track coach and instructor of physical education, and for several years was strength & conditioning coach. He spent twelve seasons (2001–03 and 2010–18) as defensive coordinator for the Greyhounds, ultimately under head coach Bob Bartolomeo, whom he succeeded in 2019.
As head coach at UIndy, Keevers has built upon the successes of his predecessor. He led the Greyhounds to Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) championships in the COVID-19 shortened 2020–21 season, then again in 2022, 2023, and 2024. His UIndy teams have qualified for the NCAA Division II football championship playoffs four times, in 2019, 2022, 2023, and 2024.
