   Diaco: In a petri dish you can look at it and "video game" it, and get two plays... but we were on the half yard line.

   Diaco: now you're on the half yard line. If we throw, what if it's picked? what if it's batted? I know all of that.

Take my chances Bob. Call plays on the flow of the game. Not one batted ball all day, not one throw that was close to being picked off all day. A Qb who was 23 of 26 and at least 2 of those were drops. Running game stuffed all day. No timeouts, multiple plays if you throw, no brainer for me. Batman gave you wrong advice Bob...

I'd love to know what was going through his head during that last TO.

My head hurts trying to wrap my mind around this thought process...

His dumbest comment is that he thinks there is time to run two plays... if the first one is a run.

The same thing that goes through a bugs head when it hits your windshield.

You guys are losers! The guy made a mistake if the play had been a score all you would be saying the complete opposite. Support the team and quit your crying. It's a GAME!! Go huskies played your heart out

Only one way to settle this if they aren't going to fire him: Make him run out of the tunnel solo pregame next week so we can show him how entertained we are with his play calling.

I'd love to know if he's ever run 2 plays in 17 seconds.

 

[HuskyHawk]

The problem for me started with the run on third and 7 in our end. Throw the damned ball. Then our crappy net 10 yard punt...where is the coverage?

We march downfield...kudos to the guys. Thomas with a first down catch, dances out of bounds...and 30 seconds comes off the clock! Nobody even notices? Then he calls the dumbest time out ever, I mean whatever play you had...run it then call time out. Then after blowing that, he still runs? Wtf?

 

[NEforceUConn]

picky, its the last 2 plays which lost the game, don't micromanage

 

[Excalibur]

Supporting a coach who is a barrier to the players' success is not supporting the players.

Only this far to go fellas!

I have a rule that I don't criticize anyone who does something better than I could. That's why I don't criticize umps and refs; I know I couldn't do any better.

But I know I could call a better game than Diaco with less than two minutes to go.

Douchey post of the year. Congrats, Newbie.

 

[UConnNick]

If we opened up the playbook like in the second half, we should never been down 21 to Navy in the first place. We did everything possible to give this game away.

Diaco is not the head coach we need. He is either dumb as duckk or he really has no clue how to coach.

Or both.

What does "It's a game" mean? You realize being a head football coach is how BD feeds his family.... He can't keep making mistakes like that and expect to keep feeding his family has UConn's head ball coach.

I would allow you to manage the clock, but he did get us to the 1 yard line. I trust him more than you on that front.

Classic. It's the old Darrell K. Royal mindset. "Only three things can happen when you pass, and two of them are bad."

 

[RabidHusky]

The second half went a little too long and his medication wore off leaving him confused and excited.

Geese...tough break

Did anybody else think Navy should have been called for a facemask on that 3rd down play?

UCONN was not supposed to win this game and had every opportunity to do so except you decide to play the what if game. what have you to lose! Hiw about this Bob..what if Johnson was stopped cold on a slow developing play in the backfield.

That was the first thing out of my mouth but on the replay it looks like he got grabbed on the jersey from behind, no face mask. The fact he wasn't calling for one makes me think it was nothing and just an illusion.
