Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 2399828, member: 6620"] For quite some time, Irish fans probably agreed with you. As you (probably) recall, Diaco arrived in South Bend in 2010 with Brian Kelly. When Diaco was defensive coordinator in 2012, Notre Dame finished the year ranked 2nd in points per game (12.8) and he was awarded the Broyles Award, which recognizes the top assistant coach in collegiate D1 Football. He probably should've stayed there for all concerned in Connecticut ... and Indiana. When Diaco left, he was replaced by another friend of Kelly, Brian Van Gorder, who set new lows in how to approach coaching defense at a collegiate level. He was fired halfway through last season. And it looks like Diaco and his red pants are not going to last much beyond this season at Nebraska, where the Cornhuskers are not exactly ripping it up. [/QUOTE]
