Long-Time Steelers Coach Retires but not the one that has been rumored to leave. After 34 years as running backs coachand 45 years total with the Steelers' organizationformer Penn State and Steelers' running back, Dick Hoak, has retired. The man who coached all those great backs (Franco Harris, Rocky Bleier, Barry Foster, Merril Hoge, Bam Morris, and Jerome Bettis come to mind) has decided to take a well-deserved break. Heck, the guy took hand offs from Bobby Lane.
