Man, that was a long and chewy read. Nick Quartaro's career seems like anatomy of a veteran rock band. Down near the bottom is his most recent football history:
Quote from: Cornell PRRounding out Quartaro's career was a five-year stint as assistant head coach at the University of North Texas which was highlighted by a 9-4 season including a Heart of Dallas Bowl win in 2013. He moved on to Rutgers University for three and a half years as director of player development, followed by another season assisting at Hobart helping the Statesmen to a 9-2 mark. Last spring, Quartaro served as head coach in the Italian Football League (American Football), heading up the Rhinos of Milan, Italy.
I'm never sure if "last spring" means a year ago spring or two months-ago spring. Ah, well, welcome Nick and let's hope you can build/rebuild Big Red Sprint football.

Quartero's Wikipedia entry has the chronology a little clearer, says he was an insurance executive 2006-2010, his college head coaching career spanned six seasons 1987-97 with a 23-39-1, and he's 67 years old. Wikipedia Nick Quartero (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Quartaro)
