Bruce Arians will will coach in his first Super Bowl as a head coach this Sunday. He previously won two Super Bowls as an assistant with the Pittsburgh Steelers and rushed for more touchdowns in a season than Michael Vick at Virginia Tech, but it wasn t all winning and glitz and glamour and winning for Arians. In 1988 he was fired from his job as head coach of the Temple Owls after a 4-7 season. The newly-fired coach addressed the media and then packed his office and went home. And at least one photographer followed him.
