    Do we have better players than URI?

    The line is 10. Opened at 7.5. I know. I’m tempted by URI too.

    2017 UConn Football Coaching Staff (official)

    John Franklin graduated and was lured to Auburn by Lashlee. Kid from FSU and featured on Last Chance U. Has his warts if you've seen the show, but an electric playmaker.

    Coordinator Prediction Thread (HCRE)

    How about the Fordham coach, Andrew Breiner? Was their OC/QB under Moorhead, and successful as HC after. Has been talked about as a possible HC here early on.

    Offensive Line deserves it's own thread

    The only real unforgiveable thing was the late hit by Alex Mack that took us out of field goal range. Don't think it ended up making a difference to the game, but it sure was significant at the time.

    How did UMass lose?

    UMass has such little faith in their kicker. I honestly wonder why they didn't do the old, soccer team tryout thing.

    Tulane- a must win game?

    Love that we have a must-win in order to go 6-6. Hahahaha.

    Foxx is a quarterback

    The Edsall apologistas deserve an apology. The Diaco apologistas are far beyond anything we ever experienced in the Edsall years. At least the Edsall's had SOME reason to feel the way they did. Diaco could declare war on Great Britain and half this board wouldn't question it right now.

    Foxx is a quarterback

    The thing that some in here don't get - if we must go the Wildcat route to win games in this rebuilding year...why not find some freshman or sophomore who can do it? Then, god forbid something crazy happens and it works, we still have the guy next year. Even Kamal Abrams, I always thought was...

    Who is calling the plays???

    Exactly right, but from what we have seen, very few adjustments are made. You can tell by the way the Boise State game went. Certain packages worked great and then completely disappeared. If you were making adjustments, you would go back to the ones that were working. But the thing is - you...

    Anyone know the status of Boyle?

    Once I got tendonitis, it made me really appreciate all the athletes that play and are listed as "probable-tendonitis". I always figured that means, very minimal pain. I hated even walking around at work.

    UConn +3.5 Friday Night v.s. USF

    To those guys who think I'm an idiot for saying let down after a loss, I ask - what was the Buffalo game last year after we played Michigan? Full admission, though. I actually gamble on college sports. Primarily, I just play the emotional angles. I don't like the emotional angle this week...

    UConn +3.5 Friday Night v.s. USF

    This is a prime letdown situation - team convinces themselves they can hang with Boise, thinks they should be able to blow out USF, and lays a complete egg. It will be a great sign for Diaco's motivating abilities if they can come out focused and win this one.

    Bring back the Wildcat and the Shotgun

    The only reason to run Wildcat is if you want Kamal Abrams to be the backup QB, solely to preserve Boyle's redshirt. Unless Boyle really is completely not ready, I don't think you can realistically go that route. Agree that running maximum clock and shrinking the game is the best option.

    Question....off site parking at the Rent...

    As I told the guy at Silva's, $15 to park at a place where kids are getting picked up is completely ridiculous when Aero is $15 as well. I see no reason to ever park there with Aero staying at $15.

    Stonybrook

    To those who think we beat Stony Brook by 40, I am curious to hear where you think those 40 points will be scored. I can see a 17-7 win without too much trouble, but 40 points? Our O-Line isn't good enough to do what we used to do to these teams, which is run all over them. Our passing game...

    Not sure what this title should be but I think: Back Off

    Some random thoughts, in no particular order... 1.) What amazed me most in Diaco pulling CC is that he did it in the Red Zone. If I had to have one QB drive me down the field, and a different in the RZ...I would go with CC in the RZ and CW down the field. CW in the red zone is the last guy...

    Just scrolled through the empty seats

    30,000*$30=$900,000 40,000*$20=$800,000 30,000*$30 + 8,000*20=$1,060,000

    More BYU players suspended or not playing Friday

    First game after summer break is definitely the best time to play BYU.

    Highlevel Thoughts on 2014

    UConn +17

    +17 sounds a whole lot better than +625, IMO...

    depth chart

    Not sure you are one to be in a position to criticize someone else's intelligence, given your past. Casey deserves credit for what he did, brand new season now, let's see how it goes!

    Re-Shuffling The Deck At RB

    I talked to Diaco about this. He slightly misunderstood my question, as I was really moreso just curious about whether we had enough depth or would be seeking a walk-on to avoid blowing a redshirt. With that being said, his comments to me were very close to what Des is saying. I asked how...

    Signing Day Event details

    Carl - The problem with your line of thinking is that while it makes your small group of season ticket holders happy (maybe)...in order to be successful in any business, you need to have sustainable growth. This event would have been a way to potentially get a season ticket holder, which is...

    OT- UMass Fires Molnar

    I think Whipple is their Pasqualoni. Too past his prime, too much ability to rest on his laurels...

    Recruiting process about to kick into high gear at UConn (Jim Fuller)

    Pretty sure Pasqualoni planned on retiring in South Windsor...(and yeah, I get the joke)

    2014 UConn Coaching Staff Announced

    Cummings looks way too much like Dan Malloy. That bothers me more than the fact he doesn't call plays for CMU.

    We were on the road for 17 days

    When you have a top 5 player in the nation, you are not having a rebuilding year.

    Whitmers coming back Per Dez. That is good news.

    Like everyone is saying, it's good news that CW is willing to come back as insurance. Diaco I'm sure wants to win sooner rather than later, so if CW is the best QB, he'll start. It also means Boyle has the ability to redshirt, but if he's clearly the best QB, you can't redshirt him. This has...

    Assistant coaching news...

    I called Zach Shay first!!! Only problem is that he hasn't been hired and I have no idea what jobs are left that he might get hired for. I do think I got Malone first, but the props have to go to the guy who listed out the name of 20 candidates - all I had to do was google those 20, ha. I...

    Richmond's Associate Head Coach Wayne Lineburg to UConn

    WR would be my guess. He's done that before and we don't have a WR coach...

    Potential DC candidates

    Hilarious how easy this is yet Des can't get it. Van Malone appears to have coached at Western Michigan in 2004 with Diaco. Malone is currently the cornerbacks coach at Oklahoma State, who plays tomorrow. Figure Malone is announced as the DC on January 2nd.

    Our First (or Third) Name

    I would have been a little disturbed if Diaco hired SOLELY people 40 or younger. It's nice having guys who have been around the block for awhile, as long as you don't let them overrun your team like GDL did.

    Assistant Football Coach/Offensive Coordinator Job listed

    The jobs are no longer posted (I wanted to see the OC and line up against a couple guys I'm thinking of), so we should have news very soon.

    Doc Holliday is a moron

    You guys all know Marshall was favored in this game, right? He had a ton of injuries and still went bowling. It's not awful. They'd be dumb to buy him out now - much better off to fire a guy on December 1st and have the whole month to look around, etc.

    Assistant Football Coach/Offensive Coordinator Job listed

    My guess is that Zach Shay is going to be the CB coach.
