His not naming Edsall really didn't bother me. I would have been thrilled if he also left out Diaco and P.I saw that video on SC earlier today and commented that he mentioned a bunch of coaches but failed to bring up Edsall. Still, it was cool to have him list off all the players we sent to the NFL, really a good promo video that yes, you can do football at UConn too!

I know that and fully understand. I just would have preferred it if cranberry pants and P were given the same treatment.That ought to tell you about how Edsall is regarded.
Skip Holtz and Shane Stafford made the cut but he didn’t.
I believe it was said he was one of the first people to do this and when he was at ToledoThis gear is leftover team merch from the last 2 seasons. I personally have a couple of those items lol. In terms of cost this cost $0 it was already on hand, the team gets new Nike merch every season in the summertime.
Awesome publicity very smart move from Candle + Co.
Diaco has had a good career. Crazy works well for a lot of coaches. Unfortunately, Diaco was not meant to be a head coach, he’s clearly a sideshow. No one will make that mistake again.The praise for Candle was awesome to hear. I can’t believe he mentioned Crazy Diaco but didn’t mention Edsall who put this team on the map. I was blown away with some of the names he started throwing out there! I thought he was going to omit Danny O too! lol! I forgot how good Branch played for Raiders. Really great PR for UConn!
He definitely had a white board off camera with notes. No way he knew one of our colors is "National Flag" blue. That's deep fan knowledge.If he recalled all those names cold w/o studying, I'm impressed.
That was like a grand worth of stuff at UConn retail prices.
He knows more about UConn football than 75% of the posters on this board!He definitely had a white board off camera with notes. No way he knew one of our colors is "National Flag" blue. That's deep fan knowledge.
