A Big Win for Diaco

[Skiblets]

And I mean yuge. In his short time on the job, he has already gotten Jacobs to whine about lack of access. Ahhh, everything old is new again. Feels like the Edsall era all over again.

I don't even understand why he's whining. The Courant got to interview Casey's father. The Courant got quotes from Diaco. Now, he's whining because he doesn't have anything directly from Casey??? After the kid made what was perhaps the hardest decision in his life up to this point???

As the English would say, "Jacobs can piss off"...

Be careful everyone, lets not hurt feelings again - remember last year and all the hurt feelings because we dont use our real names when we criticize the prowess of the CT Media.

(I still dont believe Joe Zone is his real name)

The self-important Mr. Jacobs thinks the world revolves around him. It would be nice if he actually worked hard and wrote well rather than sniveling when he doesn't get his way.

YES!!!!!! It's all about winning today, right now, every moment, everything you do. Chalk up a big win today. Getting control over the media soap opera around UConn. Good. GOOD!

I'm glad to see that Diaco is a micromanager who wants to control everything. It is a requirement to be a successful Division 1 head coach.

Jacobs is an odd guy. He relentlessly criticizes UConn football and basketball but virtually shills for the Connecticut Sun WNBA team.

Jacobs had no use for either Randy Edsell or Jim Calhoun so I suppose this puts HCBD in good company.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Now this is real whining.

I know Jacobs has to suck up to Enright but it wouldn't shock me at all if he screwed the pooch here.

"I want to interview Casey RIGHT NOW!" Whew and people thought we were a bunch of whiners. Paging Dave Carlson.

Sports media has completely run amuck. The never ending pursuit of creating controversy where none exists is mind numbing.

Jacobs is small town......

 

[WingU-Conn]

I get why he's upset. There's a big story here and Diaco isn't letting him tell it. But Jacobs is smart enough to realize Diaco is protecting Casey from the media. Good for Diaco.

and dont forget HCBD already pissed off the self-declared czars of all that is football in New England - the CT HS FB Coaches.

Yes, it is a return to the Edsall era in many ways.

We should be so lucky.

Now if we could just run the inside handoff thirty times a game we'd be onto something

I'd take it if it meant we won football games.

Yeah, I guess in hindsight the people that beat that subject to death are wishing for a "do over" now!
