Rich Rodriguez Back with Bowden Family; Named as Louisiana-Monroe's New Offensive Coordinator
By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on January 12, 2021 via Connect-Bridgeport.com
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that Terry Bowden leaned on family connections to land an offensive coordinator. Those same ties could net him a starting quarterback as well.
Rich Rodriguez, a spread offense innovator and former Michigan football coach, will lead Bowden’s Louisiana-Monroe offense. The former West Virginia, Michigan and Arizona coach was offensive coordinator for Terry’s older brother, Tommy Bowden, at Tulane and Clemson.
Rodriguez is bringing along his son, Rhett Rodriguez, a graduate transfer quarterback from Arizona. In four years, Rhett appeared in 11 games for the Wildcats and started one game in 2018.
