OXNARD, Calif. – It’s finally time for Brian Schottenheimer to get his first shot at an NFL head coaching job after nearly three decades of coaching experience. Inspired by his past and especially his father, legendary coach Marty Schottenheimer, he’s more motivated than ever to bring a championship back to Dallas.
“The hunger I have now is for the young men in that locker room, its for the Joneses,” Schottenheimer said. “When we win a Super bowl, my dad will get a ring. I can promise you that. But this is something where I grew up with a father that there was one goal, and he was very open talking about Super Bowls and winning the world’s championship and he never did it…These guys over here [the Joneses] have Super Bowls. They’ve won rings. I don’t have one, and I want one in the worst way.”
