Rocco just hired Manny Rojas as an assistant. I love getting another alum in the coaching mix. Manny is smart and very intense. I think he'll be a real asset.

Manny's been here and they've been wanting to make this official for a while. I'm glad he's finally able to get on the full-time staff.

Thought it was official...he's been on the road a few times recruiting already

[SuperJon]

It's been official, but they worked on it for a long time before it was official. This has been discussed for over a year.

Well I knew this would happen 5 years ago.

Manny was probably one of the most intense players I saw on the field...especially in 06. Its great to see him getting a chance to impart to the younger defensive players.

When he was born the doctor asked his mother what she wanted to name him....she said "future assistant coach at LU" the doctor wouldnt let her and she settled on Manny.


So she obviously knew before all of you...

Love the name--wonder if we could be related. Where was he from?

[SuperJon]

Pittsburgh.

When you & your wife first signed on here I thought you were Manny's parents, badger74.



Whenever I hear that surname, I think of the old Royals infielder named Cookie.

My favorite pic of Manny popping a helmet off of a CSU Buccaneer in 2006.
