What a pleasant voice. I feel like a nap now.

 

No cuddle time first?

I wouldn't otherwise know him from Adam, but ...I know he dislikes Diaco, so he's A-OK in my book.

What has he said? He coached under him right?

He was Disco's OC and long time friend, and he got thrown under the bus and fired.  I will try to find the article, but Verducci intimated there was no love lost there after what happened.

 

Correction - apparently was just demoted, not fired.

Then Diaco called from UConn. He wanted Verducci as his offensive coordinator. Verducci had known Diaco since the latter was 11 years old. Verducci took the job. His first season, 2015, went OK. UConn made a bowl game.

But 2016, Diaco’s last at UConn, was an unmitigated disaster of pontificating press conferences and poor coaching decisions that Diaco duplicated in his one year at Nebraska. It was a sour note for Diaco and Verducci’s relationship. Diaco demoted Verducci from the OC role with three games left, promoting a coach who’d never called a play in FBS. Diaco predicted that that coach would be an “icon.”

UConn was immediately shut out twice in a row and scored just 13 points in its final three games. Diaco was eventually fired.
