When the inevitable bad news of injuries or academic concerns filters through the football offices at Miami, there is no question about whose job it will be to inform the head coach. The fingers are all pointed at the rookie -- quarterbacks coach Jon Richt.
After all, he said, he’s got the best job security in the country.
"It’s not just that I’m his son," Jon said of Miami head coach Mark Richt, "but I’ve got his only granddaughter."
Indeed, there are some perks to being kin to the man in charge, but as Jon Richt and Louisville quarterbacks coach Nick Petrino have learned, the key to success working for dad is all about fitting in and doing the job well.
