My favorite place on the Cape.

In this age of NIL and the portal, whoever is best for us to win right now gets the job. Holding someone back in the name of development with an eye for development FOR OUR PROGRAM goes out the window. Yes, develop the not starters so they get better, just in case they stick around. In the new...

Me too. I was a huge Sammis fan as the OL guy. Hope that translates well to the next step as OC. And the QB coach is his buddy. That should mean a good working relationship between the two.

That was my mindset. I have subsequently enjoyed the content. I give it two thumbs up.

This blows my mind a little

May the person who gives us the best chance to win Week 1 be the starter coming out of camp. We are not in a position to take Ls in the name of development.

Yes. Ive been to their brewery in Milford a few times. Rest of the stuff I have tried there I thought was just ok, but they hit it out of the park with Benji.

Had a few Tribus Benji at lunch today. Tasty.

This makes me happy

Definitely on the first part. I grant you maybe on the second part.

Maybe. I am convinced it was a probability until literally the last 24 hours.

I teach high school. I see many repetitive stress injuries that cut kids’ athletic careers short. I also see emotional burnout. Has been driven by the for-profit travel teams that brainwash kids that they have to specialize in order to get their college subsidized. Happy to report, though, that...

Yes in my greater New Haven high school class. Smart Board shook.

Obviously, I hope he stars for both programs, but I hope we become known as a school that allows this regularly. We could get some really good players that the more semi-pro institutions would force to specialize. Also, cross-training is usually better for both mind and body.

Both? Very cool.

Agreed. He struggled with that.

I agree with your assessment that Buckman would be best used as a slot receiver and that he was sent downfield because the other options ended up not being as good as we needed. I guess I'm expecting a good year from him because I'm hoping we have more vertical threats in the WR this year...

I thought Buckman was very good at receiver last year. I'm hoping for a lot from him this year.

Most likely they are that bad at the updates. It's a recurring theme.

Good point. I got nothing then. Good stuff from the guys from the New England Football Journal though.

I think many of the prominent UConn football Twitterati are now producing content for Storrs Central. Not working for free anymore?

More chatter recently about WSU/OSU resurrecting the PAC from the dead. Don’t know if they can pull it off, but interesting.

All public statements (and private comments from UConn people to fans) indicate we were in the Big 12 until literally the night before. I think we were overall Plan B, but became more of a Plan A as the PAC 12 media negotiations dragged on. Then the B1G came in and blew up the PAC. I honestly...

I like your line of thinking. That would be nice.

Good catch. Maybe that is it.

I loved Sammis as our OL coach. Natural progression for him to be an OC. Just because Giofre wasn’t able to succeed as OC here doesn’t mean all former OL coaches are doomed to failure as coordinators. I do hope we hire a young OL coach in the summer so Sammis can focus on coordinating. My gut...

If Im Fagnano, Im updating my resume

Celeron Square apartment for me. Yeah, that was a bad beat.

And you need more from your supporting cast so they can't focus primarily on stopping you.

I teach at a public high school in the greater New Haven area. My seniors have been hyperventilating all week since that report about the record number of applicants came out, coupled with knowing that decision emails are going out today (Friday 3/1). I told them not to be surprised if they get...

My grad school year. Great year to be (back) on campus.

Expect to see some DL portaling out after the spring semester then

My eye is twitching again
