It's been nine years since Jon Gruden roamed the sidelines. He was officially introduced as the new head coach of the Oakland Raiders on Tuesday, and he said he intends to run things as he did in his first stint.

Gruden announced that he will call the plays for the team, beginning in the 2018 season.

He also confirmed his coaching staff will feature Greg Olson as his offensive coordinator, Paul Guenther at defensive coordinator, and Rich Bisaccia as his special teams coordinator.

"I'm thrilled to have these three coaches. We're going to hire some others this week," Gruden said.
