Diaco Clarifies Misconception About Winning

[BlueDogs]

Champions play to win all the time every time. I don't get it, but then again maybe he knows something we don't. Maybe the team was so dysfunctional that's the only approach he thought made sense. Time will tell whether he is master at talking a good game or winning good games.

A quote from old Ohio State coach Woody Hayes: "Winning takes care of everything."

Beat Boise State and no one will be thinking about the post-BYU game comments.

For some odd reason you care about Diaco a lot. You don't give a damn about our football program.

To the rest of us, the program comes first. We're all pulling for Diaco to succeed but at the same time we can disagree with his decisions and voice them here.

Given that you don't care about the program, you'll have to pardon me for taking your comments and insults with a large grain of academic fraud.

As I explained in an earlier post, I met Diaco a few times during his time at ND. We are certainly not what I would call friends, but I found him to be very nice and I would love to see him excell in his career. I hope that one day he might return to ND to be the head coach there. As you can see, I became a member here the day he announced that he was coming to UConn. Until that date, it is true that I didn't care about UConn football other than giving them credit for being one of the final nails in Weis' coffin at ND. So while Diaco clearly plays way, way, way too many players, and doesn't really want to win, I guess we all wish him well.

Supporting Diaco is my only reason for being here.

So as long as he's appropriately contrite regarding his prior statements, he can stay. And no one here wants him fired, they just want him to apologize for comments on whether or not he wants to win. And God forbid he plays too many players in a game. I'm sure that will make him very happy. All he needs now is a vote of confidence from the AD.

The only one talking about apologies is you.

You're good at creating strawmen to fit your narrative. You're not very good at understanding that we would rather the coach just be honest and say he thinks it's more important to use the non-conference games to evaluate his talent than to gameplan for each specific team.

You obviously feel the need to defend Diaco even if it means inventing things nobody said so you can shoot them down and feel better about yourself. Nobody is asking for apologies. Nobody is talking about firing him. Are you stupid or just a ?

Why not enjoy what you have at ND? You're already looking to replace Kelly with Diaco to the extent you're fabricating arguments to disagree with. What. The. Fahk. Is. Wrong. With. You?

You're right, the support for Diaco here is incredible. He plays just the right number of players, and everyone is fully behind his thoughts on how he wants to plan the season. And while I would like to see him back at ND, I don't think he's ready for that job yet. you guys have convinced me of that.

I have an idea. Go start a Diaco message board. Really. I'll even buy you the domain.

Invite all your ND friends (if you have any)

You guys are incredibly sensitive. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

At least you've proven you're not a troll. Get it?
