I guess it's a good thing we don't have to worry about winning conference championships then
Nothing good.
Becareful, unless you are adamant about playing in the CFP and winning a national championship in football every year, people on this board get butt hurt.
I think this is the true root cause of the anti-football UConn contingent. They're used to pro sports where they expect their NY or new england team to win the Superbowl/world series/NBA championship etc every single season and it's a disappointment if they don't. They know we can't win the CFB playoff given our circumstances so they don't even want to play the sport. It's like they get second hand embarrassment from it or something
My point is that he had the better talent in the field for 9 out of the 12 games they played each season and he has consistently only won 6 of those. Here he would the better talent 6 out of 12, that would put a hard ceiling on our team.
So who could we hire that is better, given where we are, who would be better?
Because he coached with Campbell? I never get this. How many times has a bigger school hired consecutive coaches from a smaller school? I'd love to see instances of that happening.
Cahill. He built up a 2-9 program to 12-0 while being limited in not being able to offer scholarships.
That would mean we are still in the market for a coach.
Wtf? Who da fook? An FCS guy over a guy who has gone 81-44 in FBS who is like 50 years old. Are you kidding me?
You trashed the MAC but you want the guy from the Patriot league. Lolz
My god we were in the top 20 in total offense and top 10 in passing and near top 20 if not in in scoring. I think we had an offensive mind.
Lol, lmao even.
Where did Chesney come from before JMU?
Let’s be fair. Cheney is not heading to UCLA because of what he accomplished at Holy Cross. He’s heading to UCLA because he has James Madison University on the cusp of actually making the FBS Playoffs. Frankly, it’s hard to read that sentence and not think there must be a typo in it somewhere.
Chesney, lolz. Nick Saban came from Toledo, Matt Campbell who just crushed it at Iowa State and got the Penn State job came from Toledo. Woody Hayes, Bo Schembechler, Paul Brown, and Ara Parseghian all coached in the MAC.
To be fair, he came into a program that was already going extremely well. Cignetti had them set up pretty well. UCLA will be a different kettle of fish. He’ll be asked to rebuild a program that is absolutely #2 in its market to Southern Cal.
Sorry, what I meant was a head coach with extensive experience offensively. Mora, Diaco, Edsall were all defense first guys (but Mora certainly understood we needed to score points the last few years). Candle started out as an OC before being head coach and his offenses were always strong at Toledo
Let's be fair, where did I say Chesney was going to UCLA because of his Holy Cross days?
