From Shula Stadium to Invesco Field at Mile High

JCU alum, Josh McDaniels ’99,
hired as Denver Broncos head coach



Josh McDaniels, a 1999 graduate of John Carroll University, has become the second alumnus of the school to serve as a head coach of a National Football league team. On Monday, January 12, he was was hired to the position for the Denver Broncos.

The first John Carroll graduate to guide an NFL franchise was, of course, Don Shula.

He grew up the son of a coach, attending two-a-day practices since he was 5, in a part of the country where football greats are immortalized and losses linger like gray skies and heavy snow.

Now the man who went to the same college as Don Shula and was schooled under Nick Saban and Bill Belichick will get his own chance to build a champion.<full story>
