Daoust is no newcomer to the Mid-American Conference. Before being hired at Syracuse in 2011 as a defensive ends coach, Daoust served as Central Michigan's defensive line coach for the 2010 season. Before that, he spent four seasons at Western Michigan, serving one year as the Broncos' defensive line coach and three seasons as the secondary coach for the program.
