Former Saints head coach Jim Haslett gets a job at Penn State

Since being replaced as Washington’s defensive coordinator this offseason, we haven’t heard much from Jim Haslett.
Today, he’s surfaced.
According to Brett McMurphy of ESPN.com, Haslett has taken a job as a consultant at Penn State.
It gets him back to his home state, as he was born in Pittsburgh and attended Indiana University, the one in Pennsylvania not the one that used to have a basketball team.
Haslett had been with Washington for five seasons before they “mutually agreed” to part ways this offseason.

St. Louis Rams
Haslett became the St. Louis Rams' defensive coordinator to start the 2006 season. On September 29, 2008 Haslett was named the interim head coach of the Rams after Scott Linehan was fired. The Rams gave Haslett an interim coach's contract, containing a clause that promised him the permanent head coach's job if the team won at least six games that season.
Within a few weeks, this clause was nullified by the NFL, because it violated the league's "Rooney Rule". He won his first game as interim head coach of the Rams with a 19-17 victory over the 4-1Washington Redskins. That win was followed by a 34-14 drubbing of the Dallas Cowboys on 19 October 2008. This brought the Rams to a 2-4 record.
The team would lose their final 10 games, leaving Haslett with an interim record of 2-10 on the year. On January 15, 2009 the Rams announced that Haslett was no longer in consideration for the permanent head coaching position and that the team would be going in a "new direction".
