Mike Shula to Mold Jimmy Clausen After Relative Success With David Garrard

Filed under: Panthers, NFC South

Mike Shula. Meet Jimmy Clausen. Have at it.

Shula, who has hopscotched around the NFL as an assistant coach, was hired as the Carolina Panthers' quarterback coach on Friday and he will get to work trying to mold Jimmy Clausen, the second-round pick who had a frightful season in 2010. His father is Hall of Fame coach Don Shula, and the family has connections to former All-Pro Dan Marino. Shula will work to try and get Clausen on track and productive, so maybe some lessons will rub off.

Shula was the quarterbacks coach with Jacksonville for four years and helped with the development of David Garrard, who came out of East Carolina with not much hype, but ended up in the Pro Bowl in 2009.
