<human>: Answer by taking a quote from the following article:

Daniel John "Dan" Devine (December 22, 1924 - May 9, 2002) was an American football player and coach. He served as the head football coach at Arizona State University from 1955 to 1957, the University of Missouri from 1958 to 1970, and the University of Notre Dame from 1975 to 1980, compiling a career college football mark of 173-56-9. Devine was also the head coach of the National Football League's Green Bay Packers from 1971 to 1974, tallying a mark of 25-27-4. His 1977 Notre Dame team won a national championship after beating Texas in the Cotton Bowl.

After suffering his first losing season in 1970, Devine departed on January 14, 1971, to become the head coach and general manager of the Green Bay Packers of the NFL, succeeding Phil Bengtson. Devine acknowledged the pressure of the position, but had the benefit of not immediately following legendary coach Vince Lombardi. Bengtson had endured three years of unrealistic expectations following Lombardi's brief retirement after Super Bowl II.  Devine's career in Green Bay got off to a painful start when he suffered a broken leg following a sideline collision in the season opener, a 42-40 loss to the New York Giants. After finishing 4-8-2 in 1971, Devine headed a brief resurgence that "The Pack is Back," by dethroning the four-time division champion Minnesota Vikings in 1972 to reach the playoffs, the Packers' first post-season in five years. The Packers lost 16-3 in the first round to the Washington Redskins at RFK Stadium on Christmas Eve. The Packers would not reach the post-season for another decade, during the expanded 16-team playoffs of the strike-shortened 1982 season. Green Bay would not return to the playoffs in a non-strike year until 1993. Unable to recapture the success of 1972, Devine's final two seasons at Green Bay were disappointing (5-7-2 in 1973 and 6-8 in 1974).  Midway through his last season as Packers head coach in 1974, Devine traded two 1st round picks, two 2nd round picks, and a 3rd round pick for 34-year-old quarterback John Hadl from the Los Angeles Rams. The Packers were 3-3 at the time despite lackluster play from quarterback Jerry Tagge, and Devine apparently believed an experienced quarterback was the last piece of the puzzle. Hadl played only two years as a Packer, winning only seven games and throwing 29 interceptions in that time. Meanwhile, the Rams used the picks acquired in the trade to draft players who would help them dominate the NFC West in the 1970s. To this day, many Packer fans have never forgiven Devine for the trade, which is widely reckoned as the worst trade for a starting quarterback in NFL history. The Packers would not have another true franchise quarterback until the arrival of Brett Favre in 1991.  On a personal note, Devine's wife developed multiple sclerosis during the season.  After a three-game losing streak knocked the Packers out of the playoffs, Devine resigned on December 16, 1974, to become the head coach at the University of Notre Dame. CANNOTANSWER
