A mighty coaching jump

By Kari VanDerVeen
August 4, 2008

As former St. Olaf Football Coach Chris Meidt gets settled into his new position with the Washington Redskins, the Washington Times notes that he could "go from the Cereal Bowl -- the title of the annual clash between St. Olaf and rival Carleton College -- to the Super Bowl."

Jim Zorn, head coach of the Redskins, says Meidt is a tremendous asset on and off the field. "I just hope that there is some stuff that rubs off on other guys, because he's a guy you'd want to emulate," Zorn says.
