Mike DiAngelo is in his fourth season on staff at Arizona after serviing the previous three seasons as the defensive graduate assistant where he worked primarily with the safeties while assisting with all facets of the defense. 

He joined Rich Rodriguez’s staff in spring 2013 after spending six years on the coaching staff at Washington and Jefferson College. During his tenure with the Presidents, DiAngelo served as secondary coach, quarterback and receivers coach and also served as special teams coordinator.

DiAngelo helped W&J earn the school’s 23rd PAC Championship and 22nd NCAA playoff appearance during the 2012 season. As special teams coordinator, he played an important role in the development of Eric Eberle, who became one of the region’s top kickers/punters. Eberle booted 11 field goals (second in school history) and was an All-PAC First-Team selection. W&J led the conference in kickoff coverage with a 40.6-yard advantage per game on their opponents. 

In 2011, DiAngelo helped the Presidents rank 37th in the nation in total defense (299.3 ypg). DiAngelo also coached wide receiver David Ravida, who finished his career as the Presidents’ all-time leading receiver with 191 catches.

He spent the 2006 season as an assistant football coach at Division II Concord University (W.Va.) where he worked primarily as the team’s quarterbacks coach. He also assisted with the special teams units.

DiAngelo was a four-year member of the Baldwin-Wallace (2002-05) football program and a two-year starting quarterback. As a junior, the Steubenville, Ohio native threw for 1,249 yards and eight touchdowns. During his sophomore season in 2003, the Yellow Jackets earned a bid to the NCAA Division III playoffs.

DiAngelo graduated with a bachelor’s degree in sport management in 2006 and earned his master’s degree in education from Franciscan University (Steubenville, Ohio) in 2009.
