He served as the head football coach at the University of Central Arkansas (UCA), located in Conway, Arkansas, from 1990 to 1999, compiling a record of 68–38–4 in ten seasons. Isom's teams won three consecutive Arkansas Intercollegiate Conference (AIC) titles from 1990 to 1992 and an NAIA Division I Football National Championship in 1991, the program's third national title in National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) competition.
