Coaching career
Pagac became a coach for the Ohio State Buckeyes in 1978 and coached there until 2000. Pagac began his coaching career at his alma mater as a graduate assistant under Head Coach Woody Hayes from 1978 to 1981; he also spent time as the team's linebackers coach from 1982 to 1995, defensive coordinator from 1996 to 1999, and assistant head coach in 2000.[1] Pagac was a 1998 finalist for the Broyles Award, given annually to the nation's top college football assistant coach.
In 2001, Pagac was hired by the Oakland Raiders to be the team's linebackers coach, and was there until 2003. From 2004 to 2005 he was the linebackers coach for the Kansas City Chiefs. In 2006 the Minnesota Vikings hired him.[1]
On November 22, 2010, Pagac was named interim defensive coordinator for the Vikings, replacing Leslie Frazier, who was promoted to interim head coach after the mid-season replacement of Brad Childress. On January 19, 2011, the interim title was removed and Pagac was named the defensive coordinator of the Vikings.
On January 15, 2012, he was removed as defensive coordinator for the Vikings but remained with the team, returning to his former position as linebackers coach.
On February 7, 2016, Pagac was part of the Broncos coaching staff that won Super Bowl 50. In the game, the Broncos defeated the Carolina Panthers by a score of 24–10.[2]
