Bills hire assistant coach, Daryl Daye

Per TBN:

Daryl Daye has been hired as the assistant to Buffalo Bills head coach Chan Gailey, the team announced in an e-mail press release.

Daye's duties will include assisting Gailey in day-to-day administrative operations as well as numerous travel and training camp duties.

Daye has never coached in the NFL. He spent the last 24 years at the collegiate level, most recently at Missouri Southern State from 2006 to '09. Daye served as the MSSU's defensive coordinator, special teams and linebackers coach.

Defensive coach with a lot of lower level experience FWIW

His football coaching experience began at Louisiana State University in 1986, where he worked under and also played for Bill Arnsparger “the architect of the Miami Dolphins' 'No-Name Defense'" in the early 1970s. He then coached two seasons for then-coach Mike Archer who is the current defensive coordinator at North Carolina State University. Initially, Daye came to LSU as a walk-on player. He earned a scholarship and later lettered at inside linebacker for the Tigers.

While at LSU the Tigers won two Southeastern Conference Championships. Daye was a part of five teams that went to bowl games either as a player or coach. LSU represented the SEC as the league champions in the Sugar Bowl in 1985 and 1987, while also appearing in the 1983 Orange Bowl, 1985 Liberty Bowl and 1988 Gator Bowl and the 1989 Hall of Fame Bowl

After his stint at LSU, Daye coached at Southern Mississippi under former head coach Curley Hallman in 1989-90. The Golden Eagles, whose then-roster included current Green Bay Packers star Brett Favre, made one postseason appearance during his stay there in the 1990 All American Bowl.
