HARTFORD, Conn. (AP)—Jerry Glanville, the colorful former coach of the
NFL’s Houston Oilers and Atlanta Falcons, is returning to the sidelines as head
coach of the UFL’s Hartford Colonials.
UFL commissioner Michael Huyghue said Monday that bringing in Glanville is
part of the league’s strategy to hire coaches who “have a winning pedigree and
are household names.
Glanville joins Jim Fassel in Las Vegas and Dennis Green in Sacramento as
UFL coaches who had previously worked in the NFL.
Glanville, who was 63-73 as an NFL coach, succeeds Chris Palmer who led
Hartford to a 3-5 record in 2010, then left in February to become offensive
coordinator for the Tennessee Titans.
