Hearing from down south, trying to confirm...#UConn running backs coach Clayton White heading back to school he played for, N.C. State.

Iceberg straight ahead.

I'd like to see UConn start to bring back some alumni for these positions.

Yup... Love to see Vernon Hargeaves back in the fold for DL if HH goes up to DC.

Who? Seriously.. the only ones I can think of are Hargraves and... and... That's about the only one I can really think of... Ferentz isn't leaving Iowa for Storrs, CT.. Who else played ball at UCONN that has any real coaching experience...

Seriously? We have MBB coach with NO prior experience that we all knew it was OK to do. We're talking about a position coach.

Well, there's our bad news for the day.

That's fine with me having a LB coach the running backs was a little sketchy to begin with and the RB recruiting / play hasn't exactly blown anyone out of the water (I would argue last year was residual from the previous regime, almost a fluke)

I want to see who HCPP hires as both DC and RB coach....I'm in the 2% that is interested to see what he can do with a third year in the program, these two hires could make or break it

Looks like you and I are on the same page...

No disrespect to DJ, I think his aspirations to be a coach on our staff would be in a higher capacity than what his coaching experience entails.. He still needs to be seasoned a little more... unless he takes an assistant to an assistant position coach role... He's not ready for fulltime FBS coaching.. my two cents... He will be in a few years though....

UCONN's a little more established when it comes to MBB vs. FBS football, no? Just sayin.. Think about it bro...NOBODY, I mean NOBODY but us true UCONN fball fans respect UCONN fball... We gotta get more help outside the program.. We need a guy that can recruit FBS level talent... one that is known for his ability to recruit along with his ability to coach the position...

You said you couldn't think of former player w/ coaching experience - I gave you one. Not advocating just answering the question other than Vernon.

i dont think white was that good....imo.

we will get a sub-par 1 year stop gap, and then a whole new staff in 12 months.

OOPS. Okay, another coach is fielding offers.

 

[huskysupporter]

Just like Brown (and I am sure there will be others), how can you blame him? Leaving an atrocious conference for a better one. Probably better pay. And definitely better job security.

If anyone here thinks other assistants aren't putting out feelers, you will be dissapointed.
