A native of Philadelphia, Glosson played college football at Texas Southern, where he was a three-time all-Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) end, from 1956 to 1959. He played Canadian football professionally for one season, in 1959, with the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League (CFL). He was an assistant football coach at Texas Southern from 1961 to 1967. After his head coaching stint at Mississippi Valley State, Glosson returned to Texas Southern again in 1970 as assistant athletic director, assistant football coach, and head golf coach.[2]
Glosson was married to Rose Walker.[3][4]
