No idea, but I found this from '05:
Coach Rocco has been in many major programs including Penn State, Wake Forest, UVA, UT and Boston College among several others. He's even coached with Al Groah (current UVA coach) at the Pro level with the New York Jets. Danny Rocco is a fine man with the right attitude. He said that while at Boston College (Catholic in nature) he took the approach that he should be able to recruit any Catholic away from their state's big-name school. He said at LU he plans to do the same thing. He will utilize LU's distinctively Christian atmosphere as a benefit and not a deterrent.

He went to a Catholic church when he was living up north but he's by no means Catholic. He went to Blue Ridge when he was in Lynchburg.

Not to mention, just because you go to a church of a particular denomination does not mean you are that denomination. I mean I go to Thomas road and Im Pentecostal. A friend of mine grew up Episcopalian and goes to TRBC. A friend of mine grew up Catholic and she got married in a Methodist church. Im sure there are plenty of other examples that could be culled from personal experiences of the membership on this board.
