Season Ticket Poll After Hiring of Edsall

[UCweCONN]

I'm curious to see the impact of the Edsall hiring.

 

[UConnSportsGuy]

I almost called after the Diaco news to sign back up for season tickets. Glad I didn't now, as I don't think they have a return policy.

 

[UConnDan97]

It literally could have been anyone else besides Diaco for me to buy. He was the craziest, most frustrating football coach I have ever seen. Now I can take my son to games with a chance that we can win and an expectation that we can score a touchdown...

 

[J187Money]

Don't need to buy them until end of April.

 

[Uconn77Duke74]

I plan to complete the online forms and then Bail right at the last minute for something better.

I couldn't agree more....

When that happens, you won't have to worry, because UCONN football will have ceased to exist. I don't like the hiring but we have to pray somehow it works out.

 

[HuskyBandDad]

Was renewing no matter who the coach is. This just raises my curiosity. Not fully on board yet.

 

[UConnSportsGuy]

What's the guess for attendance at the Spring game?

I actually think it will be higher than normal, just due to the sheer spectacle of it all...

 

[UConnTrumbull]

I wonder what our ST numbers will be compared to last year. In 2016 we were coming off a bowl game and people were thinking Diaco may have been a crazy genius. Maybe some nostalgia will creep in with 2000-2010 alumni and the numbers get a small boost.

 

[bigAbruns]

I'll wait and see who he brings in for assistants before I renew

That's not good enough.

First of all, the renewal seats must be in luxury boxes behind the glass (BCS Bowl). Not right on the 50 yard line, but between the 45s (Non-Championship Game).

Right as you are ready to hit send, you must lose out to a wealthier and longer term booster (Oklahoma) who is willing to donate 140% more than you (48-20).

However, before all that happens you make the most talented cook in your tailgate crew (Jordan Todman), who has confided in you that he is putting himself in the running for a new job (NFL Draft) and will be henceforth rooting for a new team (later found out to be San Diego), admit to the rest of the group that he is moving.

Then, after losing out on the tickets, and just before the renewal period end, you drive alone up to Chestnut Hill and spend the already collected money (goodwill) on season tickets at the Heights, with only a poorly timed text message to your crew claiming you only had UConn tickets in order to fulfill your dream of watching BC to commemorate the decision (okay, that one's a stretch).

Plus four for me. I'm ecstatic with this hire Hope has returned to the Rent.

What's the guess for attendance at the Spring game?

depends on the time and the weather..........as always
not for me...
in general

 

[uconnric]

What's the guess for attendance at the Spring game?

34,827, give or take

 

[weyuo]

34,827, give or take

3,482 give or take and that's if the weather is perfect.

 

[Alum86]

Was not buying if BD came back, back on board when they fired him.

Now? Meh. Maybe cut back from 6 to 4.

 

[huskysupporter]

I was not renewing my season tickets if Diaco stayed. Now I am renewing and possibly adding two more.

Very happy.

Not sure if coincidence or what and not to be disrespectful but I was just at Price Chopper in Vernon and saw A LOT of 50s-70s yr old men sporting block C gear.

I think this move, if anything, brings back tons of disenfranchised people.

To me personally? Feels like Netflix remakes of Arrested Development, Full House, Gilmore Girls to me. I'm kinda more confused than anything.

Was planning on getting tickets anyway, but I'm sort of lukewarm on this hire. I was hoping for new blood. I hope the coordinators have blow-away potential.

I also hope that fans have tempered expectations. Edsall had a .514 winning% in his first go-round, but his record regressed in each of his first 3 years. I'd love for him to make lemonade out of what he was left, but he went 4-7 the year after UConn won a home 1-AA playoff game (albeit with a graduating Shane Stafford).

 

[coachcap]

My usual 12 were going to be renewed regardless. Lateral move by Benedict.
