    Matt Brock - New Defensive Coordinator

    One thing that jumps out to me in a big way: this guy is not afraid of a challenge. Mississippi State, Washington State, and Texas Tech have a lot of unique difficulties despite being in P5 conferences during his tenures.

    Tyson Brown - New Director of Football Strength & Conditioning.

    ‘Injury reduction’ would be great.

    UConn Outbound Transfers for 8/1/23>7/31/24 Cycle

    This sucks to see but it’s reality in college football right now. A lot P4 caliber players at G5 schools are going to be picked off and there’s not much anybody can do about it. Short term, recruiting (HS and Portal) better than the rest of the G5 when the dust settles should still be the goal...

    Put (A Little) Money Where Your Mouth Is

    Donated last night. I encourage others to do the same if they can, even if it’s just a little bit. It’s a good opportunity for the fan base to be a part of the solution.

    Gotta Hand It To Channel 3

    The app worked flawlessly and the broadcast itself was fine. I was surprised there weren’t any ads during timeouts. Significantly better experience than ESPN+ and FloSports. And free!

    Sacred Heart Post Game Thread

    Always good to get a win, especially comfortably and on senior day. The defense played well. Charlton didn’t do anything to help his job security IMO.

    The next step for the program

    This is exactly how I feel. I’m a believer there’s a non-zero chance that when the well runs dry for the ACC after the biggest assets leave, we’re headed back to some semblance of the old BE - even if it’s a scheduling alliance with the scraps. Whether our football program can stay afloat in the...

    BC Coach Jeff Hafley post game comments on UConn

    Fair point, I must have mixed them up with another series. I won’t be shocked to see some games changed with the CR movement. The series makes a lot of sense to continue for both sides.

    BC Coach Jeff Hafley post game comments on UConn

    I hope Hafley stays there forever. I enjoy having a winnable P5 game on the schedule. No disrespect.

    BC Post Game Thread

    This isn’t like the late Diaco or RE2.0 years. The players are physically competitive enough to win most of the games we’ve played this year. This is a critical offseason to get the coaching staff in order, it’s time for a shakeup.

    For all you block C bozos

    I love the block C helmets, regardless of the association with he who shall not be named. It’s a clean look.

    Would you have gone for two?

    I was fine with kicking the xp in the moment, but coming up short going for the win would’ve felt a lot better than this.

    The Wide Receivers

    Fair to be a little concerned, but not pushing the panic button yet. NC State’s defense has more talent than we do right now. That’s just reality. Let’s see how the next few weeks play out.

    Same Ole #t

    There was a time not too long ago when we would’ve lost that game by 40+. There’s a ton left to improve but we’ve got a lot of season left.

    Away Game Tickets

    I’m looking into going to this game myself. I’m going to call the ticket office and see what’s up, but my guess is sections 6-8 would be best bet (visitor sideline & not student sections).

    UConn v. North Carolina State Wolf Pack (Thursday 8/31/23 @ 7:30p on CBSSN)

    This should be the first year in a long time that it won’t be littered with freshmen and sophomores. Retaining talent is fun!

    Fagnano it is

    Candidly I thought Roberson would get the nod having won the job last year, but I’ll trust the coaching staff that brought the first semblance of competitive college football in a decade on this one.

    2023 Starting QB Debate

    I think a redshirt year would serve Zion well - I think he could be great for us down the road. Hats off to the kid for helping this team get to 6 wins. Some of you need to lighten up.

    Transfers - Outbound (8/1/22>7/31/23 cycle)

    You may ultimately be right, but it’s a little too soon to say, no? We were net winners in the portal last year with basically nothing but Mora’s name going for us. I’m intrigued by what they can do with some real momentum.

    Transfers - Outbound (8/1/22>7/31/23 cycle)

    This is the nature of college football in 2022. I’m sure there will be other significant transfers out…. We just need to end up net winners via the portal.

    Huskies Can Count on Marquez Bembry’s Veteran Presence (UConn Football)

    That clip should be sent to every P5 transfer in the country. Tremendous testament to the culture this staff is building.

    BC - Ripe for the Picking. What Say You?

    We have absolutely nothing to lose on Saturday. BC is ripe for the picking. Pack the Rent and make some noise. This team deserves the support.

    Humongous win for the program

    I mean what more can be said about Mora and this staff. They had enough stacked against them coming in - then add all of the injuries. The fact that this team got smacked around the last few weeks and was able to bounce back like this is truly amazing. We’ve been through so much, enjoy every...

    CCSU Post Game Thoughts/Analysis

    Until the defensive line can start getting pressure on their own, it’s hard to play press coverage without getting burned. I love that Mora dials up the blitz more than we’ve seen in recent memory, but at some point we have to see some pressure with 3 and 4 man rushes.

    Team stats

    Agreed. I thought Zion was fine today, much better than last week. I think we’re just lacking playmaking receivers given the injury issues.

    This is what you’re supposed to do against an FCS team. Passing game still needs a lot of work though.

    Bounce Back and Resilience

    That’s a game that would’ve unraveled in the second half over the past several years. Offense couldn’t get anything going and the defense was on the field too much in the second quarter, but they recalibrated at half time. They won’t be happy with the result, but the players should be proud of...

    Game Week 2022 - UConn @ Utah State Aggies (Saturday 8/27/22 @ 4p EST on FS1)

    The line on the game is dropping like a rock… USU -23 at the moment, down from 26.5/27 last night.

    Spanos out

    There’s not really a good way to spin this. If it’s personal/family related issues, I wish Spanos the best. If it’s performance/team chemistry related then we have bigger issues, but I do trust Mora to figure it out. Just have to wait and see.

    UConn’s offensive line was among worst in college football last season. Jim Mora is looking to reboot.(Aldam @ Hearst)

    Last year’s offensive line could’ve been significantly improved with an offense that wasn’t entirely vanilla and predictable for most of the year. The influx of capable players this off-season is an added bonus up front.

    Your Win / Loss prediction for 2022 season

    In my mind 3 wins would be good, anything more would be great. Ideally putting beating on an FCS team for once and keeping the P5 games interesting into the 4th quarter more times than not.

    2022 Fall Training Camp

    It’s hard not to be excited listening to Mora talk about this team. We’ve been through so much as a fan base, but it feels like we’ve finally got something here.

    2022 Recruiting Thread

    I’m not going to die on the hill of defending Edsall, but I don’t think the bolded line above is totally fair. I don’t think the issue was so much recruiting decent players as it was keeping them on campus for more than a year or two. Too many freshmen and sophomore contributors transferred out...

    UConn Football - Summer Workouts 2022

    I’m really glad Matt King stayed on with the new staff. Of all the things that went wrong in the RE2.0 era, his strength program wasn’t one of them.
