Bad reasons to not fire Randy NOW

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

FYI only:

• Current ongoing search for new UConn President
• Interim President, concurrently ongoing UConn Health CEO, clearly successful academic and medical leader albeit zero prior experience overseeing athletics/AD; Scot.

My thoughts on Moorhead and Weist is that they might actually be up for it. I don't know how many guys are actually going to want to come here.

Moorhead was 38-13 at Fordham of all places, was over .500 in the SEC, and basically saved James Franklin's job at Penn State. The dude can coach.

Our offense was pretty good when he was here.

and that was with the Edsall leash

I don’t think Morehead would be interested. Don Brown?

Don Brown is 66. No.

Adam Gase, QB Whisperer

 

[ZooCougar]

Al Golden would be retreadish. But he did a good job at Temple.

Incredible that in 2021 TJ Weist still gets talked up on the BY for a 3 game win streak a decade ago

 

[ZooCougar]

The ship be sinking.

sunk

 

[Life Is Good]

-It’s too expensive-it’s practically free

-we might lose every game this season-we probably will lose every game no matter what

-nobody will take us seriously-nobody takes us seriously

-all of the talented players will leave-ummmm if there are any, they are going into the portal anyway

-recruits will decommit- they will eventually anyways

-it will hurt attendance-haha

What am I missing?

-there won’t be a change at quarterback

Is it something about teams named the Huskies? I had to quit watching UW after 2 quarters and then 2 more possessions of absolutely inept offense. Trying really hard to lose their season opener to Montana, who isn't even a good FCS team like they used to be. I think the "fire Jimmy Lake" chants are starting to get warmed up here on the other side of the country.

How did Houston Baptist do this weekend?

I didn't even know that was their nickname. Does Northeastern play football? Haven't checked on them either.

edit--how could I forget Northern Illinois?

we desperate

Those of us that remember saw a team that improved and played like we wanted them to during his shift as HC.

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

Don Brown?

66 year old DC, recent journeyman?

No. They dumped it.

Houston Baptist even stole our crappy logo.

a lot of that was Casey. If it wasn't for the concussions he'd have had us rolling

 

[Slasher]

Think there's any shot at someone like Jason Candle? 39-21 at Toledo, low buyout and makes just barely over 1M. Would probably require paying him at least $1.5M.

Northern Illinois Huskies 22
Georgia Tech 21

Casey was great. Shame what the concussions did.

Let's not forget the 3 game winning streak was a 6-7 Rutgers, 2-10 Temple, and 3-9 Memphis.

I mean, murderers row it wasn't but it's at least not getting your ass beat by Holy Cross.

And Illinois just lost to UTSA. All these teams would demolish UConn.

I wish we could play Kansas 10 times.

 

[Yup!]

1. Moorhead
2. Dino Babers
3. Matt Entz
4. TJ Weist - I wouldn’t mind if he was hired, but he’s not proven. He’s been a positional coach pretty much his entire career.
