Fox Chapel's Rocco taking Liberty with football job
Danny Rocco has certainly been on the move since graduating from Fox Chapel High in 1979. He spent two years as a college football player at Penn State, and two more at Wake Forest. Then, Rocco began his life's work as a college football coach, tackling assistant positions at Wake Forest, Colorado, Tulsa, Boston College, Texas, Maryland, the NFL New York Jets for one year and the last five years at the University of Virginia. Three months ago, Rocco got his first head coaching job, becoming the seventh person to lead the Division I-AA Liberty University (Lynchburg, Va.) football team in the 33-year history of the program.
