Staten going through 'Rockets Rosetta Stone' since joining UT coaching staff

As new Toledo tight ends and offensive tackles coach Mark Staten settles into his new gig with the Rockets, he compared his initiation to the Toledo football program to learning a new language.

Staten is one of four new assistant coaches this year for the Rockets, joining quarterbacks coach Robert Weiner, defensive coordinator Vince Kehres, and co-defensive coordinator Craig Kuligowski.

It's a new feel to the Toledo coaching staff, and Staten hopes he will offer a fresh set of eyes and some perspective based on his experience.

"Watching all the film and learning the new language, it's like a Rockets Rosetta Stone," Staten said.
