Rick Minter becomes the senior analyst in the Chargers

After Jesse Minter was appointed to the Chargers as their new defensive coordinator, his father Rick, a former analyst and interim linebackers coach from Michigan, is reportedly set to join the Los Angeles Chargers’ staff as a senior analyst. This marks another departure from Sherrone Moore’s Michigan team. As the Chargers bolster their coaching staff, Minter brings a wealth of experience and expertise to his new role as a senior analyst.

At 69 years old, Rick Minter returned to the coaching scene as a full-time assistant last season with Michigan, albeit in an interim capacity. Minter transitioned from an analyst role to overseeing the linebackers following the sudden departure of Chris Partridge.

Rick Minter’s coaching legacy

Partridge, renowned for his coaching prowess and recruiting acumen, was let go amid allegations of interference in an ongoing NCAA investigation. Since his promotion, Mintеr has admirably filled the void for the top-ranked Wolverines, earning the affectionate moniker “grandpa of the room” from his linebackers, reflecting his wealth of experience and sage advice. Observing Michigan’s growth over the past two years, Mintеr has witnessed the evolution of defensive strategies under Mike Macdonald’s tutelage, culminating in a well-coordinated defensive unit capable of rotating up to 20 players weekly.
