The honeymoon between former UConn Huskies football coach Bob Diaco and Nebraska Cornhusker fans and media is officially over. After he was hired in January, Corn Nation seemed to be enjoying the show he put on, something UConn fans can certainly relate to.
However, in the Huskers’ season opener against Arkansas State, Diaco’s defense gave up a whopping 497 yards. For reference, last season the Red Wolves rated as the No. 93 offense in the nation in yards-per-game.
With such a rough performance in his debut, fans were understandably upset. After all, he’s the highest-paid assistant in program history.
