Bruce Arians put together the most diverse coaching staff in the NFL and now it's led the Bucs to the Super Bowl

When Tampa Bay Buccaneers coaches gather for a staff meeting, it is unlike any other staff meeting in the NFL.

Among head coach Bruce Arians’ 28 assistant coaches is a two-time Olympic gold medalist, multiple Super Bowl-winning former players, a daughter of Iranian immigrants, a single mother, and a man who won his first Super Bowl as a coach in 1979 and has no interest in retiring at age 82.

Given that the Buccaneers are playing in Super Bowl LV on Sunday, winning three road games as the NFC’s No. 5 seed to advance, it’s a mix that works.
