Adam was the assistant defensive backs coach with the Cincinnati Bengals when Mike was the defensive coordinator there. They both left for Minnesota in 2014, when Mike became the Vikings’ head coach. After spending the past six seasons as the Vikings’ linebackers coach, Adam was elevated to co-defensive coordinator along with Andre Patterson. Adam chatted about that and so much more with the Pioneer Press. After things shut down, I spent about a week in my apartment in Uptown. Then I said, “I’m tired of this.” I’d go to Dunkin’ Donuts to get a coffee and that was about the only human interaction I had. So, after a week, I drove to stay with my dad at his place in Kentucky. It’s about 30 minutes south of Cincinnati. It’s not in the middle of nowhere. There are restaurants and grocery stores nearby. We have a lot of land, and it’s close enough to grab dinner or something. On weekends, I walk around the land. It takes about an hour. My dad and I mowed a golf course (into our land) and we hit balls. We shoot some trap. The typical stuff we’d do when we’d come to visit. I spend much of the day separate from my dad. I’m working downstairs. He works upstairs. We cook dinner and watch TV together. My middle sister, Marki, is here also. Football always comes up. A few nights ago, my dad pulled out a white board and drew on it. It’s always on our mind. That’s what we do. I’m definitely itching to get back to normal. We have these virtual meetings, and it’s been good. I want to get back to driving to work every day and having meetings every day instead of virtual stuff. We’ve tried to have virtual walk- throughs. We make a call to each position group and they have to explain what to do. That’s as much as we can get out of this, trying innovative ways to do things. I’ve gone to practices since I was 3. It was early on when I decided I wanted to coach. I want to be a head coach someday. That’s been in the plan ever since I’ve started. I’ve taken some notes from every head coach I’ve been with. I made mental notes and, you know, (figure out how) I would do this if I was a head coach or I wouldn’t do this for certain reasons. If you’re in this position now, that’s the next step. I don’t want to do it when I’m not ready. I want to thrive in this role first and then get to that position. I’d be all for it if we won a Super Bowl. If I could time travel, sentimentally, I’d like to go back to when my mom was living. She passed away in 2009. It was my last year with the (New Orleans) Saints. I was basically like a graduate assistant. The last year they added assistant linebacker coach. My favorite cereal as a kid either was Fruity Pebbles or that honey-smack cereal. My dad loved Cap‘n Crunch, so I had that, too. I love the movie “Miracle.” I get goose bumps every time I watch it. For comedies, I like all those movies with Will Ferrell. I got my degree in finance from Trinity University in San Antonio so, if I wasn’t coaching football, maybe I’d be doing something in that nature or teaching. My dad has been the greatest influence on me. I learned a whole lot from him and my mom. When I first got to the Saints, Joe Vitt taught me a lot about coaching and being in the meeting room. He had an influence on me, too. He took a kid right out of college and took me under his wing and trusted me to do stuff. He let me run drills and run meetings. His son-in-law is Adam Gase, and he’s coaching with the Jets now. At the facility and around the team, I mostly call my dad Coach. It’s kind of weird for your boss to be your dad. I refer to him as Zimm in front of players. Players call me Zimm, Coach or Adam. As long as they don’t call me a—hole, I’m good. Everyone says we’re similar, my dad and me. But I think we both have our own little quirks. I don’t think I’m as boisterous as he is. No, I don’t yell as much as him. I’m more of an explain-things-coach instead of a yeller. We’re all intense on game day, so that’s a little different. But around the players, I think I’m a little more talkative instead of yelling. Since we started coaching together, I think our relationship definitely is stronger. I spent just one year in Cincinnati with him. It was an adjustment period in Cincinnati. Eventually, we became more comfortable. I went there in 2013 and he got the job in Minnesota in 2014. I learned more football in these last seven years than I could have imagined. I played four years of football in college. I was a defensive back. I wasn’t anything to write home about. One of the coaches I had the most respect for was Charlie Weis. I worked for him in Kansas City (in 2010). He saw things really, really well as a coach. He called an outstanding game. He says he tries to put himself through the players’ eyes and see what they can do, not something that’s drawn up and they can’t do and is unrealistic. I tell the players all the time, “You guys are the ones that have to play. If you don’t think we can do this, tell me and we’ll adjust things.” A lot of things look good on the chalkboard or talking through it on the film, but if they can’t go out and execute it, it’s doing no good. It’s hurting you instead of helping you. Being a co-defensive coordinator with ‘Dre has been really smooth. We’ll get together and meet and put together a schedule. He does a little more in the front and the run game. I do a little more with the back end, the DBs, linebackers and coverage. It’s not difficult at all. I’ve known ‘Dre since I was in grade school, so it’s a good relationship. Worst thing I did as a kid? Maybe at training camp, getting my dad’s golf cart stuck in a sand trap at the college he was at in training camp when he was with Dallas. It was like a volleyball sand court.

  • DECLARATION of ANTHONY HARGROVE I Submit This
    DECLARATION OF ANTHONY HARGROVE I submit this declaration in order to describe instructions I was given by New Orleans Saints Coaches about what to tell NFL investigators during their 2010 investigation of the Saints’ so-called ‘bounty’ program. 1. On or about February 24, 2010, I returned to New Orleans, Louisiana after a mission trip to Swaziland, Africa, and I received a telephone call from my New Orleans Saints defensive line coach, Bill Johnson. Coach Johnson informed me that Defensive Coach Gregg Williams needed to talk to me at the Saints facility. I immediately went to Coach Williams’ office for the meeting. 2. When I arrived in his office, Coach Williams was working on a depth chart, and he said to me, “I’ve got you plugged in at left end, Tony.” Coach Williams knew that defensive end was my preferred position. It wasn’t until later that I realized that the presentation Coach Williams gave me regarding my opportunity to start at defensive end might have had something to do with what he was about to tell me to do. In fact, later, after I had re-signed with New Orleans and had concluded my meeting with NFL security in the manner Coach Williams had instructed me, I was never given the opportunity to compete for the starting defensive end job. 3. Assistant Coach Joe Vitt joined Coach Williams and me in Williams’ office. Coach Williams told me that the NFL was coming to the Saints facility to ask questions about a complaint from the Vikings that there had been a “bounty” placed on Vikings quarterback Brett Favre by the New Orleans Saints defense prior to the NFC Championship game.

  • The Look Man Report 2005 Week Seventeen: Kodachrome
    The Look Man Report 2005 Week Seventeen: Kodachrome "Times have changed, you know? Like black-and-white TVs (and then) color. It was Pittsburgh, and now it's Cincinnati. That's the way it's probably going to be for a while now, so everybody just get used to it." - Chad (The Dentist) Johnson after the 38-31 Bengals victory Dec. 4 in Pittsburgh Week 17 wrapped up the seedings for the 2005 postseason tournament. It also included the most coaches fired since the 1990, opening the window of opportunity for a host of young guns to relocate themselves and their families. With luck, some of them might actually live in these new cities for 3 years, though this is unlikely based upon past history. The five year plan in the NFL has become the two year plan. Win or go home no longer applies simply to the postseason. Coaches either win in this era of free agency, or they find themselves looking for employment elsewhere. The Three Mikes got the ax as Mike Sherman, Mike (Megalomaniac) Martz and Mike (Fried) Tice obtained a version of the home game. These terminations represent a loss of some good material for the LMR, as well as the Raiders firing of Norv (Tina) Turner in a continued Commitment to Excrement. NFL coaching vacancies become the game show du jour as Herm Edwards looks to take over in KC for the Crying Man. Other coaching candidates include the Iggles OC Brad Childress, D-Coordinators Tim Lewis, Ron Rivera, Ted Cottrell and Donnie Henderson. And of course, retreads like Megalo Martz, Sherman and Fried Tice are always in vogue.
