Morphology
The compound 'line coach' is transparently compositional: 'line' modifies 'coach' to mean a coach responsible for the (sports) line, so a learner who knows 'line' and 'coach' can infer 'coach of the line/linemen'. This noun–noun formation is a common, productive pattern and requires little specialized knowledge beyond understanding that 'line' can denote a group/position in sports.
Etymology
The noun line coach comes from American football. It names a coach who works with the line, the group of players called 'linemen' who start in a row at the ball, so line coach now means a coach in charge of the 'linemen'.
