Message: [QUOTE="noeynox, post: 4655938, member: 156"] They have waited. Over a decade plus to get played time and time again by the ACC. The ACC commish and ESPN told Malloy we were "next" how long ago? The ceiling for UConn FB maybe what it was in the Big East, it may be higher. While in the Big East with similar resources to their peers in what they could pay coaches, they beat Syracuse, Pitt, WVU, Baylor, Iowa State, Indiana, South Carolina, Notre Dame, Duke, Vanderbilt, Rutgers, Cincinnati, Pitt. When you're so broke as a program that all you can do is bring back Edsall on a contract with no buyout and a bunch of interns as assistants the program looks like it did under him and somehow people conclude the FB program will nevet be anything more than that, when they already showed they were capable of far more than that. I only mentioned Calhoun in regards to him acknowledging how important FB was to the long term stability of the school and BB programs. This is why you see Hurley and Geno super pumped that the program showed signs of life in year 1 under Mora. Those guys looke genuinely stoked. They cannot sit on their hands and let thia slip away. It is literally the drowing man scenario playing out. [/QUOTE]
