Bucs’ Schiano Hires Giants’ Sullivan to Run Offense
Well, it didn’t take long for the rest of the NFL to begin rifling through the Giants’ coaching ranks.
Yesterday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who named former Rutgers’ head coach Greg Schiano their top man last month announced they had reached a deal with Giants’ QB coach Mike Sullivan to become their offensive coordinator.
“We are very fortunate to add someone like Mike Sullivan to lead our offensive coaching staff,” Schiano said in a statement. “He is a man of character and a complete football coach, who fits with the kind of football team we are building here. His work with the Giants over the past eight seasons speaks for itself. Mike was an integral part of that team winning two Super Bowls in the last five years and we look forward to him bringing that experience and expertise to our club.”
Sullivan, a former Army ranger, had been with the Giants for eight seasons under Tom Coughlin, first as the WR coach and then as QBs coach helping Eli Manning blossom into one of the league’s best players.
