Pasqualoni was by far the worst coaching hire in UConn Football history. Uninspiring, supposedly ran counter to the "search committee's" recommendation, and anyone who played a down of football since Pop Warner could see the game passed him by at Syracuse a decade before, but hey, he had the backing of the CHSCA, when a podunk Texas freshman squad could probably kick the stuffing out of a CT All Star team full of Seniors who had been playing together for 4 years.

Given that TJ Weist's record consists on two "interim" tenures, he probably didn't want it or was unqualified. Head Coach is really only a "coach" in name only. Judging from Weist's positions since UConn, he was probably more comfortable in the weeds of the Xs & Os.

Diaco was a Broyles award winner, coming off a NC game appearance, and was presumably highly sought. He turned out to be crazy, but was that the case when hired? He was bowl eligible in year 2.

Edsall 2.0 was bad, but there was at least a justification. There was no justification upon which to fall with the Pasqualoni hire.
