Jim Mora Coaching Tree

I wrote a blog post today, part of a series of coaches who succeeded without sticking to a single system. I included Mora because he won in New Orleans with a great defense and so-so offense, and in Indy with a great offense and so-so defense. One item I mentioned was the number of future head coaches who were with the Saints during Mora's tenure. Jack Del Rio and Mike Tice were both players under Mora, and Dom Capers and his son Jim Mora Jr. coached under him. Did I miss anyone? I keep thinking there was another but I'm not coming up with anything.
Here's the article if anyone is curious: Jim Mora

Vic Fangio is the 49ers defensive coordinator.
he was the Saints LB's coach for a long time under Mora I think.

I hate you now, Soph! You should never say or type that name as a Saints fan.

Rick Venturi was head coach for a hot minute.

Very good blog post. One mistake, Vaughn Dunbar was a first round bust at running back under Mora, Vaughn Johnson was the linebacker. Well-written and good read, though.
