When Carnell Lake decided to step down as the Pittsburgh Steelers defensive backs coach, many wondered who would take over coaching the secondary. Many names were thrown around, and the Steelers finally settled on Tom Bradley, a name which likely rung a bell with people in and around the keystone state.
Bradley took over for Joe Paterno amidst the scandal prior to Paterno’s death, and also spent time at West Virginia and UCLA. Notice among this resume you see zero NFL teams.
This was a big knock on Bradley for the Steelers’ global fan base.
