Darian Hagan serves as Assistant Coach (Running Backs) for San Diego State University's Football program in San Diego. The San Diego State source profile describes Hagan's current role and recent program context, including that Darian Hagan enters his first year on The Mesa as San Diego State’s running backs coach under head coach Sean Lewis. Hagan, one of the names synonymous with Colorado’s rise to glory in the late 1980s, just finished his 20th season overall on the CU football staff, which included 13 non-consecutive seasons as the school’s running back coach.
The same profile adds background on Hagan's coaching path, team results, and player-development record. Beginning in 2004, Hagan has also served as the director of player development, director of player personnel, offensive assistant coach, and defensive technical intern following a playing career that included the 1990 National Championship and 1989 Sporting News Player of the Year. In 2020, he knew he had a special back in Jarek Broussard, who would earn Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Year honors with 813 rushing yards in five games (895 including the Alamo Bowl). Hagan made a difference in his first season (2006) mentoring the running backs, as CU had three 500-plus yard rushers for just the 10th time in its history. For the ICDB record, that background gives readers a fuller picture of the experience Darian Hagan brings to the Football staff.
