2016 Coaching Carousel Begins...

[Drew]

Diaco apparently has interviewed for the Arkansas DC job already too:

Coaching rumors: Bob Diaco emerges as Arkansas DC candidate; OC Dan Enos could leave, too

"According to a report from Bart Pohlman from Sports Talk with Bo Mattingly, recently fired UConn coach Bob Diaco has emerged as a candidate and has officially interviewed for the job. However, regardless of who ends up with the job, current defensive backs coach Paul Rhoads is expected to serve as the co-defensive coordinator."

Hence why there have been no interviews/comments. Looking for the next opportunity.

Quick look at the pants situation and it's a match made in heaven:

Not surprised in this in the least!
Diaco played with Bielema at Iowa for a season, and Bielema was a GA there while Diaco played there. Diaco was a GA there while Bielema was LB coach.
Bielema played 89-92, GA 94-95, LB Coach 96-01
Diaco Played 92-95, GA 96-97

 

[Drew]

just was listening to this segment and heard Diaco's name come across as someone they'd be considering. Think this actually might not be a bad spot for him to land given his NJ recruiting ties and B1G experience

I'm sure it was posted somewhere, but please promise me we included "offset" language in contract so that his buyout will be offset versus what he makes wherever he lands

Wisconsin DC Wilcox name also be tossed around.

Feldman: Wisconsin's Justin Wilcox in negotiations to be next Cal head coach

Both the original contract and extension are silent on new employment offset language as far as I can tell ((no specific language).

Ace recruiter Cristobal leaving Bama for Oregon

Amazing what that p5 label does for attracting coaches and players.

Bob about to get paid no matter where he ends up:

 

[uconnphil2016]

It's no coincidence that he's only rumored as at schools with red as their primary color. I can't wait for the interview where his lack of success is attributed to our lack of red apparel.

I'm expecting that Tim Lester will be named as the Broncos new Head Football Coach tonight. Source tells me "new Coach is addressing Staff"

Andy Pepper ‏@APepperWWMT 3m 3 minutes ago
I am still awaiting official confirmation from WMU, but my source tells me "It's Lester. An announcement could come in next 1 - 1 1/2 hrs"

Still no Les...

Really? That's a bit of a stretch isn't it? His bend don't break approach isn't exactly revolutionary.

[Colt house75]

Cornhuskers saying "he is one of the top defensive minds in college football".

Really? That's a bit of a stretch isn't it? His bend don't break approach isn't exactly revolutionary.

After sitting through three years of his defensive schemes,..... I have to agree with you Shaky. What did I miss in total reality of what we viewed.??
Was it the recruiting on D ?? His coaches ? His philosophy? Over the last 4 games, we gave up 144 points to the like of Tulane, ECU, BC etc....not exactly Alabama. We had 2 wins
over 3 year period, excluding FCS schools and teams with losing records,...... said another way.... 2 wins in 3 years over FBS schools that had a winning record. "Top defensive minds ????"
If he was, then he forgot most of what he learned or never applied it, that is what I call "mind numbing".....

Best wishes former HCBD...

You can criticize Bob Diaco for a lot of things... his hair is not one.
