Where Is He Now: Former U.S. champion Mongo McMichael lined up for NFL coaching job Jan 6, 2009 - 3:10:12 PM
Former University of Texas and Chicago Bears defensive lineman Steve "Mongo" McMichael is lined up for a potential NFL coaching position with the San Francisco 49ers.
His former Bears teammate, Mike Singletary, was recently named permanent head coach and previously told McMichael he would hire him on his staff if he became an NFL head coach.
McMichael, a former U.S. Heavyweight champion in WCW, recently appeared on the TNA Bound for Glory PPV in Chicago and refereed the Monster's Ball match. McMichael was a little rough around the edges, but still showed solid athleticism delivering the three-point stance shoulder tackle during the match.
In a recent interview with the Chicago Tribune, McMichael talked about being hired for an NFL coaching position.
"Mike told me that if he ever became a head coach, I would be his defensive line coach," McMichael said. "He knows how much time I spent in the film room and that I knew how that translates to the field. We were family. We always think of each other as family, and we’re willing to help."
FYI: Mongo McMichael started with WCW as a color commentator before beginning a pro wrestling career in WCW. He wrestled off-and-on from 1996 until 1999, including one U.S. Title reign.
