He was 55-47-1 as a HC at Citadel. Sounds like a very shaky hire :)

Holy cow. Let it go. We had our socks knocked off with the Diaco hire. The OC hire not so much, but fortunately he will have opportunity to prove us wrong.
 
Unless we hear more news today...in terms of filling the 5 open staff spots...I am going to assume the guys Diaco has chosen to fill them are still coaching in bowl games still to be played (including FCS championship game).
 
FD, I'm surprised that we haven't heard anything yet today.

I assumed that the bulk of the remaining coaches worked yesterday (as it is the biggest bowl day) and from ~ 10:00 am to noon we would have three or four names announced.

This is lending quite a bit of creedence to the guy from Okie St. I'm not sure what other schools have candidates we would be in contact with.

For the love of Swat Burrell Abbot's Brother (yeah I know it's Scott..but I started calling him Swat after he made a block his freshman year) it will go on until the staff is in place!

The only DC candidates that fit the description on the University website and haven't played yet are Oklahoma St CB coach Van Malone, Arkansas St Interim HC/ DC John Thompson, or an FBS coach

Van Malone is the only one that fits the qualifications and is still playing that has a connection to Bob Diaco

You know that because your an expert on college coaching staffs and how they should be built. You're just another couch potato who thinks he knows everything but actually knows very little. Again I am not sure why you follow UCONN football since you think they should be disbanded and UCONN should have gone into the new Big East

Here is your coach evaluation Quick reference guide:

0-5 wins - They're horrible
6 wins - Maybe they'll get better
7 wins - These guys are OK...for now
8 wins - They may be worth keeping for a while
9 wins - These guys are good, hope they stick around
10 wins - They're awesome, how could they leave such a good thing
11+ wins - I hope their replacements don't screw it up

8 wins is the baseline for Diaco. Everyone points out how bad the last staff was and they managed to sweep the last 3 games. Boise and BYU are both playing at the Rent, and Boise won't have Peterson any more. The AAC sucks, so unless we get all of Houston, UCF and Cincinnati on the road, 8 wins is not unreasonable at all.

Link to Diaco at Virginia... another Recruiting Coordinator, this time from the mid-atlantic.

We was a WR coach at UVA, I imagine he'll have that role here.
 
Good profile and very good that he has plenty of ties to recruiting Virginia HS.

Virginia is the southern border of UConn's driveable recruiting range. Plenty of talent throughout the DC suburbs, Hampton Roads and Richmond.

If the 2014 had four senior starting OL and three starting DL's (like the 2013 squad had) I would say that 8 wins is not unreasonable at all. Considering that we are potentially going into the season with neophytes in both trenches it may be a bit early to draw a line in the sand and claim that anything shy of this is a failure. I realize that you are attempting to find some way to tell the board that you are a better football mind than Diaco but most here have seen through you for years Waylon.

Richmond? We got a Richmond guy? I guess we can forgive him for that.

To recap: Welcome to coaches: Jones, Reardon, Patterson, Lineburg and Cummings. Coaches Foley and Diaco need help with the phones.

For the love of Donald Thomas, Marcus Easley and all walk ons.....continue.
