We are relying on Donovan Williams and a recruiting class that hasn't set foot on the field yet? After all of the b!tching about how poorly we've been recruiting? If that's the case then we will be terrible next year. Come back a year from now and tell me how wrong I was. I'd love that to be...
Holy sheet. When I look at the roster like this? I can't find a win outside of Holy Cross. This is a terrible roster with a worse than terrible coaching staff.
These numbers highlight the point I've making about recruiting. We have way too many kids with UConn as their only FBS offer. You cannot build a roster like that. I have no idea how much our ridiculous admissions standards come into play here but I have a feeling that's a problem as well.
That's fine. But when we struggle to beat those teams, don't wonder why that is the case.
We can win with a few kids with this kind of offer list. But we are building a roster full of them.
This is really what you'd choose? You'd have plenty of room to spread out. 5k in a 40k stadium is not enticing. ND State draws well because they win. Kids go there because they win.
At this point I have no faith in the UConn administration. Here are the scenarios I see:
Best case - They are waiting til 1/1 to fire Diaco. At this point it's the best we can hope for. It's still a small time move that will hurt us in the short term with recruiting and hiring a new coach...
Then you weren't looking hard enough. When reports like this come out 95% of the time it's true. Wolken got this wrong. I ran with it. Sue me. I got BL on retainer.
Why would they? This administration doesn't take football seriously. And we have absurd admission standards. Keeping Diaco on board was the last straw for me. This program is as dead as the day is long.
Given the damage it will do (see Saulin decommit), if we are waiting over a month to can Diaco to save about $1.5 million we are so done as an athletic program.
No. Benedict should have zero input on who the OC is. Not his role nor is it his area of expertise. This is why he should've canned Diaco on Sunday. I understand the financials behind bringing him back but when he did so he killed the program dead. We are not going to recover from this for a...
It's blasphemous around here to say we lack talent or that the team has quit, buts it's obviously true.
Our recruiting approach needed to change years ago. Our admissions process needs to be loosened up. We have been recruiting "RKG's" with no or few offers and it's shown on the field.
Aren't they all on one year contracts? And how does every other school in America avoid having to go through this dog and pony show if in fact that's what it is?
