Athlon FBS coach rankings

Diaco comes in at #78 nationally and at #7 in the AAC, right behind Tuberville. Here's hoping this season UConn / Diaco move up.

Offense seems to be the focal point for a league that features coaches like Houston’s Tom Herman, SMU’s Chad Morris and Tulsa’s Philip Montgomery. However, defense leads the way at UConn with Diaco in charge. The New Jersey native was regarded as one of the nation’s top assistants during a stint as Notre Dame’s defensive coordinator (2010-13) and helped the Fighting Irish reach the national championship game in 2012. Diaco went 2-10 in his debut (2014), but the Huskies showed improvement in 2015 by finishing with a 6-7 record. Diaco is building a stellar defense in Storrs, and with a little improvement by the offense in 2016, UConn could push for seven or eight wins this fall.

I was hoping he'd be a little higher, but it was a fairly reasonable analysis. If the offense shows even marginal improvement from last year in at least sustaining drives, this team will be tough to beat all year long.

I have a feeling that UConn will be the story of the year in college football.
