Chris Samuels Goes To High School, And Other Links

Former Redskins coaching intern (oh, and offensive tackle) Chris Samuels has been named the new offensive coordinator at Blount High School in Mobile, Alabama. And, according to an article on AL.com, he'll also be working as a substitute teacher while he's there. Samuels does not hold a teaching certificate and will be officially designated as a volunteer coach. To satisfy requirements as a volunteer coach, [Blount head coach Kevin] Sigler said, Samuels will work as a substitute teacher. "He's not doing it for the money," Sigler said. "He basically wants to give to the kids." Congratulations to Chris, who had mentioned the possibility of coaching high school more than once and talked often about paying his coaching dues. This seems like a terrific move for him. Other links.... Brandon Banks goes on the radio, says that he'd like to gain some weight, according to Dan Steinberg.
