Bob D now employed
- Thread starter inWV
- Start date
Let's schedule LA Tech ASAP
He’ll be gone by the time Moos gets it scheduled..
He definitely knows how to raid the cash registers, some big hauls, some small, but cash none the less!
It is more like failing without consequence. The fall but there is always a net.
At ND he had one great year...went to Uconn and they sucked...so what happens? He gets a DC job at a blue blood...then BOOM gone...falls back to some no name job at OU but wait...then is promoted! Then canned again...but wait...gets to be DC again.
The coaching frat strikes again...the most good ole boy network in any profession.
One things for sure- down in Ruston,LA the strain will be evident to everyone...
Honestly though, these places are perfect for guys that are that high strung. No media, no real crazy fan case, no call in shows, dude will make bank and get to coach.
I was seriously impressed as heck when Riley was able to get him. Pretty sure I called it a "big-boy move" at the time.
Not one of my better moments.

The best coach Nebraska had on campus in all sports.
John Cook should have watched him in action, he might have learned a thing or two about coaching
Haha! And quite possible the worst communicator I have ever had the displeasure of listening to. A total "WTF did he just say??!!!?!!!???"
Thank god for Bob Diaco. If Riley hadn't fired Banker and hired Diaco, there is a SLIGHT chance they win enough games in 2017 for Riley to keep his job. Frost goes to Florida, etc, and we remain well and truly screwed for the foreseeable future.
That's why I try not to complain about Riley. If they had hired even a remotely competent head coach instead of Riley, chances are good the Frost era at NU never happens.

Hopefully you still feel the same way about Frost 3 years from now as you do now. Never know.
I'm just saying I'm glad we're getting the opportunity to find out. It seems pretty clear that if Riley had lasted one more year that Frost would be somewhere else.
Coach Diaco will be ok, this latest move is genius, he gets to continue coaching which he loves and keeps the spotlight burning brightly on his D next year. Only a matter of time before he is back in the playoff hunt. IIRC you people were slobbering over him a few years back.
Not for very long. But it looks you are still slobbering over him.
Can you imagine the looks on the faces of the cajun media after one of Diaco's post-game press conferences?
A lot of coordinators don't end up being good HC's, though. honestly, who knows what Diaco could've looked like under a Frost-led Nebraska team. It's pretty apparent that the culture was a mess under Riley, and I don't really put that on Diaco.
I will say, he seemed to be a bit of an odd fellow
If you mean the FCS playoffs, you might be onto something. That would line up well with his current career trajectory.
They’ll probably be as confused listening to him as most of America is listening to Orgeron.
This guy is going to coach for...20-25 more years I bet...and I won't be shocked if he is a HC again.
As discussed Bob Diaco was a better defensive mind than Chinander and should have been retained by Frost.

I'm surprised he even landed that gig. He must be good at cover letters, resumes and most importantly, interviews.
Yeah, that move had Billy Devaney's fingerprints all over that too.
Freaking 12 wins, 52 losses over a 4 year stint with the STL Rams.
