Something had changed. “That first encounter I had with Coach (Jim) Mora), it was in 2021,” said Lundt, an offensive lineman with NFL prospects. “Right before the Clemson game, me and my Dad went up to shake hands with him. I just remember the emotion of confidence that bled from Coach Mora and I’ve kind of fed off that ever since I met him. Really, since that day moving forward to the point where we are right now, I’ve seen the way we prepare and the way do things at UConn and it’s translated to the field. It’s just been super special to be part of this group.” <- -> “For this program, we want to start not just competing, but beating some Power Four teams,” Mora said, “and making the statement that we are becoming very relevant again on the football field.” <- -> “I don’t want to suggest that it’s a transformational opportunity either way,” Benedict said. “To put it in proper context, it’s an opportunity to get a ninth win, to get a ninth win against a good opponent and to keep that momentum going into next year is really important. We have built momentum, and we want to keep that momentum moving forward..” <- -> “It means a lot,” said Mora, 62, who will obviously get a new contract sooner than later to keep this momentum going. “First and foremost, the commitment to the university to football, which has been demonstrated over and over again. These (players) here, a lot of them acted on blind faith and their commitment to achieving things that haven’t been achieved here in a while has been extra special, it’s extraordinary, it’s uncommon. <- [/QUOTE]
