Our 2011 NFL Draft Rounds 1-7 Picks (Player/Agent) report has agent Joe Linta with 5 clients drafted in the 2011 Draft (a 2nd round, 4th round, 5th round, 6th round, and 7th round pick). Linta is widely known as the representative of Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco. In Connecticut, he may soon be better known as Coach Linta.
In addition to representing professional football players through his company JL Sports, Linta has also picked up a job as the head coach of a private high school in Connecticut named Hamden Hall. Linta has eight years prior experience coaching at Yale University.
Linta does not believe that the coaching job will take away from his work as an agent. As he states,
“The slowest time of the year in representation business is August through October. A lot of agents like to play golf. This is what I like to do, sort of like a hobby. I’ll probably spend the same number of hours a week doing this as they do playing golf.”
