Diaz to Moo State

Seems like every article that I find on Diaz, all the pics are of him at Texas. It's like his time at Tech didn't exist.

Report: Mississippi State to hire Manny Diaz as defensive coordinator

The Manny Diaz Hire: Beyond the Numbers

I guess I got a little back story. When the Gannett paper used a couple of my Diaz images Sunday-Monday, I sent an invoice. What do you expect? No credit line either....

Manny's presser...

"I have to also make sure I thank Skip Holtz, Tommy McClelland and Dr. Guice at Louisiana Tech. I’m probably coming off one of the more gratifying and fulfilling years of coaching. We had a really special team this past year at Louisiana Tech. The players there did an outstanding job defensively and we really had a special season. It’s always fun to go; it’s always hard to leave in this profession and I left behind some really, really good people and some really good players there at Louisiana Tech."

That's nice. Hopefully comments like that will make LA Tech an appealing "landing spot" for some other good coaches in the future.

Very glad to hear that we made a serious effort to keep Diaz, this is a shift from the past and another sign our AD and President are committed to Athletics.

What a classy statement from Diaz about TECH! Thanks coach!
Earlier in the season I think Coach Diaz said something Like that the program is not ruled by fear but high expectations.
It is apparent that Coach Holtz is building the program the right way.

Well, of course! Always put The Tech above your families financial security. Wouldn't you?

Yeah. Been doing that for years ...

That's a real good story. Thank for posting that.

I sure hope Holtz can get it up one more time and hire us another good DC. I'm more convinced than ever that we should pay as much as we can to get a good DC. Diaz showed me for the first time in a very long time that LA Tech can win a lot of football games with a strong defense. I think it should be a primary focus for the 2015 season.

I haven't listened but the local espn radio station in Jackson interviewed Disz yesterday. Here's the link, his interview is near the top of the list.

Sorry, link didn't work right. From the linked webpage click on audio vault. Just listened to it. Really nothing special, just a bunch of red neck Mississippi State talk.
