A “Rational” Argument Against the Edsall Hire

[FDNY99]

If there continue to be new threads saying how great it is that hiring Edsall will bring us back to mediocrity then I and others will continue to interject what a poor decision it was. By the way, I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone mention Colin McEnroe's editorial in this mornings Courant.

I just read that piece by Colin McEnroe...I have one question for you @Padutch5 : Do you think Colin McEnroe has season tickets to UConn Football? I don't ...I also don't think Colin McEnroe is a college football fan or understands the game 1 bit. Because if he did he would understand that this job was toxic right now and that it wasn't desirable by a young up and coming head coach. I'm not all in on this hire...as I have posted around this board..I actually wanted to give up my tickets when it happened..tickets I have had for 13 straight seasons after having them for 6 seasons in the mid 1990's. But my wife was the one to look at this rationally and make the rational decision to stay on board...why you ask..because you support the program and the kids! I am with holding my final thumbs up or down until I see Edsall's staff but from what I have heard from him so far in his press conference and Q&A after with reporters he is NOT the man described by Colin McEnroe in his piece. But then again thats because he isn't a season ticket holder who loves the program..NOR is he a college football fan who understands the game, it's landscape or it's dynamics!
