Coaching career[edit]

In 2008, Ramsay was hired as the wide receivers coach for his alma mater, C. W. Post. In 2011, he was hired as the head football coach for Paul D.

Post, which was now LIU Post, as the wide receivers coach. After one season he was named head football coach for Nassau Community College.[9] In six seasons (the 2020 season was cancelled due to COVID-19) he led the team to a 37–23 record.[10] In 2021, Ramsay led the team to the NJCAA Division III National Championship which they lost.[11] In 2024, he was hired as the head football coach for Maritime following the resignation of Mickey Rehring.[10][12]
