Joe Moorhead to be head coach at Mississippi St

Vanderbilt gets more money for its AD in one year than UConn gets in 8. Its inevitable that the P5 conferences will pull away in every sport eventually, it just dpends how and when any given decides to focus on upgrading a aprticualr sport. For Vandy, they'll never compete in fball, so let's...

Gilbert is really a terrible player right now. All flash, no substance and does nothing to help his teammates on either end. Adams, Anderson, Vital, Larrier and Polley are the best five players

this game is close to getting away. Dillon gonna run like 10 times in a row here. if the O keeps going three and out then BC will just wear the D down

Larrier: 11-18 from floor 61% Rest of team: 12-43 28%

Gilbert has not only shot the ball badly, but he compounds it with terrible decision-making. And he breaks the offesne almost every time he touches the ball. He should not be playing yet. Larrier!!!

Back then, the upsdie to Uconn football was maybe get lucky with a local QB, win with a strong running game and defense and have a few things fall right and play in a meaningful bowl game. There was a path to be competitive nationally. First it was Big eAst, thenPP and then Diaco...now the gap...

speaks to how bad CFB is that GameDay in week six is going to a game 95% of all fans would simply ignore if given the option. CFB is a two-team sport right now

I'm actually surprside its not Larrier. he's the guy I think that has the best chance to be an NBA player on the team.

HC was lining up 83 in the slot and exploiting matchups, looking for certain LB coverage or safety coverage depending on where he was. UConn never pressed the kid off the line and he was GREAT at running option routes and finding open space. I guarnatee he will be an UDFA singing by the Pats...

i was sitting in the end zone above student section watching the game. The QB play was bad. C'mon. there were plays to be had and they were not made, Decisions by the first kid were wrong almost every play. if the first read wasn't there his next play was go deep, often into double coverage...

Reality: HC wore down in the second half and BS had more time to throw than Pindell. The BIGGEST play of the game was the roughing the kicker penalty. Uconn then took the ball down the field and didn't score (failed 4th down), but it kept HC D on the field, stopped their momentum, and changed...

I used to mock any and all soccer. The flopping and whining to refs and the thrill of a 1-0 game. all that. In the context of a live event yesterday blew away anything uconn has put on that field since maybe the WVA game in 2011 or whever it was. and that was the USMNT b team there were a ton...

lol...i've taken my kids to maybe 10 uconn football games, several uconn hoops and celtics games and dozens of red sox games. yesterday was by far the most engaged and most fun they've ever had at a sporting event. the ghana fans were great.

seriously....wtf happened over there? One of the best parts of the Rent was the ease in and out. got off Silver Lane exit at 4:15 and missed first five miniutes of game. Took 45 minutes to leave and we watched rom in front of the exits with five minutes left otehrwiose great game and...

is it possible to get tickets walk-up on site? I see online there are still maybe a thousand or so tickets still available

Rory's in Darien often wins or finishes second in Farifield County clam chowder competitions

the only thing he is correct about is that no one cares. the reality is, conferencce realignment destoryed all interest in college sports in the northeast

I'm guessing any consultant would tell Herst and DB that selling home games is more lucrative and perhaps the only way to keep the program solvent. Basically, the current math doesn't work as UConn is not getting 30k to their games, never mind 40k. Selling a home game to BC for $1.1M makes sense...

Edsall and hiss taff are paid peanuts. if the big statement was in firing Idiaco, then OK. I'm still not sure where that money came from though?

Uconn is geting $1.15M to play this game and gets $3M from their TV contract? LOL

what conference realignment did was completely kill college sports in the northeast. Including the NYC market.

If its a donor driven choice, then you see where Uconn is financially. they had no choice and DB nor SH could possibly argue that RE is not an improvement over BD. so the donors had all the leverage. It is what it is. I highly doubt DB's dream hire is Randy Edsall. Here's the thing for me...I...

Part of their distaste for Uconn stems from the losses on the women's hoops side. And the Edsall game at South Bend. There may be more to the recruitment of her son, but the reality is Diaco coached her kid and he liked Diaco and Diaco was fired. So it was personal. I'm sure some people took the...

What's distressing is that the three seniors have not gotten better in any way. no development at all on the court. Did that ever happen under Calhoun?

maybe they are trying to use Shirref's injury as a smoking gun to force diaco out. Or something else we don't know about. There may be a clause in his contract that states he has to actually understand the rules and strategies behind the game of football? The silence is...unusual

ask them to take you through the economics of the football team and the coach. And about the atheltic department. Ask them what the future is for the football team, the olympic sports and how the atheltic department is going to survive once the $10M in Big East money runs out in 2017 and the...

Why would Charlie strong give up his buyout to coach Uconn? Lol. That like 8 years of Uconn salary

Maybe the idea behind keeping him is that they hope the players either quit or transfer. Then they don't pick up new scholarship players to replace them. U can bet the internal goal is to cut 20 or more when the subsidies dry up What an embarrassment he and this program have become. The sad...

having Idiaco around for another year just speaks volumes about where the athletic deaprtment is and where its going. HE's maybe the worst game manager I've ever seen and his quit on him five games ago. Yet he's still there? By keeping him, it means at least one and likely two years of...

This might be the worst team in America. I don't think they could beat an FBS team right now. Little talent, poorly coached, and now they quit trying. Actually, they quit a few weeks ago.

I wish for mediocre... they likely don't have the $$ to buy Diaco out, nevermind pay $2.5M per year more to anyone and hire even a established staff. Basically they are set up, at BEST, if they fire Idiaco, to be a stepping stone to a P5 type program. They can't afford to be competitive with...

remember, Diaco is a DEFENSIVE coach. these kids are not even trying

They quit on the coach. they quit last week and are not even showing up on a national TV game at home with a bowl bid on the line. Quit. and its understandable. Fans quit a long time ago

There is absolutely nothing new in what Hawkins said. In fact, he didn't even get to see Diaco try to manage a close game and watch him waste timeouts, not understand down and distance, call plays to keep a game close, etc etc etc. The schemes have always been high school, but the game...
