Apparently 15 years after his retirement, Hog great Joe Jacoby has decided being a car dealer and radio analyst is not enough so he is at the NFL combine looking for a job?
According to the Washington Times, Jacoby has decided he wants to be an assistant coach somewhere. He's hit up old friends like Joe Bugel and Russ Grimm to prepare and apparently he is now officially looking for work.
After the career that man had as an OL for the Skins my only response to this is give this man a job.

Fate of three determined tomorrow
While most of the football nation is focused on who will win this year's Super Bowl, Redskins fans all over the world will be scouring the news wire services to see if our favorite WR will finally get the enshrinement into the Hall of Fame that he deserves.
Art Monk is up for election to the Hall for the 8th time while former teammates and Darrell Green and Russ Grimm also hope their phone rings.
I was extremely upset last year when Michael Irvin was voted in before Monk despite Monk finishing his career with higher totals than Irvin. But this article by The Washington Times may have softened my view. Irvin specifically said:
"As great as it was for me last year going into the Hall, that held a hole for me. I don't think I necessarily deserved to be in before Art. How is it you can be No. 1 [in alltime catches as Monk was from 1992 to 1995] and not be in the Hall?"
The simple answer to Irvin's question there - he wasn't Jerry Rice. We also know Sports Illustrated's Peter King was adamant about keeping Monk out of the Hall until recently and now he is leading the charge to finally get him in.
If Monk sees his name omitted from the list of finalists again this year, I say the Hall of Fame (and the writers who vote for the honors) are just as dysfunctional as Dan Snyder and Vinny Cerrato are at running a coaching search.
Here's to hoping at Monk and Green are honored tomorrow.
