01/26/2012 - Conway, SC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Coastal Carolina first-year football coach Joe Moglia announced Thursday the hiring of Dave Patenaude as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
Patenaude was Georgetown's offensive coordinator the past two years and has 21 years of coaching experience.

A 1990 graduate of Central Connecticut State, Patenaude was the head coach at Division II University of New Haven in 2002 and 2003. He also was offensive coordinator at Hofstra and assisted at Holy Cross, Columbia, Fordham, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy and Springfield (Mass.) College
