Minnesota_husker Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I get the "I want recruiters" mentality, but at this point i think Donte has that covered.. I want to make sure we have a guy who can coach these kids up. Not saying Donte cant, but a guy who knows Diaco is A-ok with me. 3 Quote Link to comment
B.B. Hemingway Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Like I said in another thread, it's hard to question Riley on these decisions with the last four hires he made looking like home runs (K. Williams, JP, D. Williams, and Diaco) 1 Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Maybe Riley wanted another old fart on the coaching staff. Riley, Elliot, and Cav can carpool to Village Inn for the early bird special. 8 Quote Link to comment
Sargon Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Another win for NU imo. Welcome Bob. Bob's are usually reliable good guys. Go Bobs! Bob's also have keen senses of talent and for motivation. Cooperative. They're real Bobs' Bobs. 1 Quote Link to comment

Nebfanatic Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 While I would have preferred a more energetic recruiter who can also coach them up, this is still a great addition and happy to have him aboard. Riley is putting together a pretty impressive staff now. I think it will translate to good things if we give them enough time Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Interesting that it's kind of the opposite direction of several recent hires. All the reports are he has a job - the open coaching position seems likely but I suppose there are other possibilities. Quote Link to comment

Roger Dorn Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I'll trust Riley/Diaco on this one. If Elliott can help coach up and develop the talent we're getting and can provide some help with big picture coaching and ease the 3-4 transition, then count me in. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Nice article SI did on him a few years ago: http://www.si.com/college-football/2013/01/06/bob-elliott-notre-dame 1 Quote Link to comment

choyeskilm Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I think this was a very smart hire. Wanting to implement the new defensive scheme, they need experts. Diaco helping Bray and Elliott helping Williams is great. Bray and Williams bring the youth, fire, and technique while Diaco and Elliott bring the "smarts" and understanding!! Love it Quote Link to comment
