CU football: Hagan fired up about return to coaching

Just three days ago, Darian Hagan had no idea how Colorado was going to fill the vacancy on its football coaching staff.

Hagan hadn't even talked with head coach Mike MacIntyre about his plans for the position.

Then on Friday, Hagan was invited into MacIntyre's office for an impromptu meeting. He left the office as the Buffaloes' new running backs coach. CU made the official announcement on Saturday.

"He pulled me aside and brought me in his office and told me some good things," said Hagan, who had served as CU's director of player development the past three years.
