    The next dominoes (September 17 edition)

    I have slipped into the shadows and watched for a few years to see how the posts might change with the times. I have noticed that nothing appears to have changed. Lots of people here claim to be hopeless about UConn's chances joining another conference. Then everyone argues about where UConn...

    Mickey Mouse Operation

    Ummm Whaler most often, I understand your logic, but I know company execs with their own private plane fueled on the tarmac and they’ll drive to DC - 6hours away versus flying. Why? When driving they can plan contingencies. When flying no one likes to hear - the Air traffic was brutal today. A...

    Mike Anthony: UConn athletics can recover with its own cuts and outside help

    Well, i’m Glad to see another recruit from STA! Don’t underestimate the Raiders! ...and I would take every 3* player from every high school that has a winning tradition in state championships with a high football pedigree. I don’t believe all 3* athletes are the same. We need players who know...

    Dunn getting a raise from Randy’s pocket

    Does anyone really believe this is our fan base or just a microcosm demonstrated on the Boneyard. Look, I have witnessed when UConn was at their height in basketball, the average fan who supported the team for years got shoved further and further up the rafters at the Civic Center until they got...

    Boneyard Walk of Shame

    For the record I think for the 2018 - 2019 season ND had as much right or even more to go to the play-offs as tOSU and OU. I do not feel that any school the selection committee had chosen would have upset the final outcome. I feel that ND going was not a bad choice based on their record. I also...

    Early Look at 2019 Hot Seats In CFB

    I just looked it up...but the point still holds even more so with two coaches already gone! And ECU is not in CUSA so my point is there are errors. But that being said, the new coach isn’t on the hot seat list yet because I have not yet seen a school hire someone and immediately put them there...

    Boneyard Walk of Shame

    I understand why you say that when it comes to ranking. However, would you agree that even when playing against an FCS opponent you still have risk of injury. Or when the toughest game of your season comes right before the play-off selection committee. Also for the record I was not opposed to ND...

    Early Look at 2019 Hot Seats In CFB

    I give him to the 5th game of the 2020 season. If the team isn’t performing...you need to get the best coach you can which means you use the rest of the season and off-season to do that. You use an interim coach and again making no promises!

    Early Look at 2019 Hot Seats In CFB

    The AAC has 6 schools with coaches on the hot seat (from 3 to 29) here they are: At # 3 UConn...............................................................Record - 4W & 20L after 2 years w/ school At # 13 ECU*.................................................................Record - 9W &...

    Boneyard Walk of Shame

    I know you keep mentioning the point of the FCS opponent, and it’s fair in some regard but I don’t know any of the universities who finished in the top 10 who played an FCS opponent in the last 25% of their schedule. Usually it’s their first game but have not seen it go to the last part of their...

    The college football playoff should be 25 teams, let me explain.

    ND awful again, UCF is a better team

    Ummm, NO, please follow the money? People/fans love watching ND. They enjoy watching them win and they enjoy watching them lose. The common denominator...people/fans watch ND. Your argument assumes that the football powers feel that when they get unfairly treated, things will change. No, they...

    I'm seeing the next kick coming, loud and clear...

    Because we always get something far worse than our worst fears. The following isn’t the cliff. It’s the fall...Right, my fear with all the shuffling...the AAC offers nothing for UConn to remain...and UConn ends up in the MWC. Travel is insane and hockey moves to some tier level 6 conference...

    ACC Network To Start in 2019; Could There Be Conference Expansion Soon?

    Um, no....all my theories revolve around one common principle/rule...FOLLOW THE MONEY! If say the conferences made a steadfast rule that only conference champions could make the play-offs the result Right now is that ND joins the ACC. And I am sure the Big would be happy to see that. Would the...

    Diaco Speaks

    We”d get card-board box, make a rocket ship and fly it into outer-space. Bob is awesome he doesn’t need to go into space to land a space shuttle. He runs an offense that isn’t at 8,000 feet. And now he coaches line-backers. Hmmm, miss him, nah, just the trophy, it belongs in the Hall of Shame!

    UConn @ AAC Media Days (July 23/24)

    Trumpland??? Hmmmm/ I wonder if out of the other corner of your mouth you tout that we are spending too much on defense. And the reality is we have the best military equipment in the world. Also, world class, I would say Electric Boat does more for our economy than all the spending at being done...

    The Athletic on Edsall

    Now I don’t think any of us think he is not lying or rather incapable of lying. But when he lies it’s obvious, so obvious that the BS meter hits orbit. My point Bob Diaco’s Best lie came in high school while sitting in “shop”, reference - “The Brekfeasr Club” here, when he said the dog ate his...

    Herbst Stepping Down

    What success has there been in CT based on CT policies, leadership, academics, or business growth? Now in terms of businesses moving out, trucking companies doing well, and perhaps ;) the tolls were to get one more squeeze on the people leaving. First out of UConn’s control but needs a vast...

    Any word in uniforms tomorrow?

    Yes but we pay more taxes with all the adjustments than we ever did under the British monarchy. Considering the high taxes in MA which is less than say CT NY city or CA the red uniform is fitting.

    AAC 2nd TV Contract/Negotiations

    So.... just curious, are you implying that because someone has taken a stand that this happened to be their red line, they are less for not going against their beliefs and supporting those who have sinned or made decisions against their perceived better judgement. Hmmm, I’m with him for taking a...

    KO - A tough spot to be in

    I admit off the top, I am Not going to offer anything to the speculation of who wins what monies. I am going to offer my fan perspective. I went to the UConn games that Kevin Ollie played in. I watched coach Calhoun. I supported my team with passion. Fast forward, I watched the last years of...

    What’s more likely the arrival of a 100 tolls or UConn in a P5 conference in say the next 10 years! What’s worse the people in this state will cheer for the toll roads and simply not care at all about UConn with the exception of UConn has too Big a budget. So, i’ll Give you my future...
