Raiders coach Rauch Chooses Prep School Path in Florida
Ten years after guiding the Raiders to Super Bowl II, John Rauch works as a physical education and health teacher and football mentor at Admiral Farragut High in St. Petersburg. The former quarterback and NFL coach says the move is a challenge, not a step down, as he seeks to develop young players away from pro schedules. He recalls a long coaching arc from Georgia to West Point, NFL and AFL stints, and a brief Tampa Bay Buccaneers tenure before settling in Florida.
