Edsall Has Big Job Ahead Rebuilding UConn Program (Altavilla)

Sure, anything is possible. But he wasn't ever going to be fired for winning at the clip he was (no matter how much his most vocal detractors try to discredit it). I never thought firing him was worth the risk. There was a better chance we struck out than there was we hit a home-run. He owns his entire coaching record, but considering the starting point for UConn football, and where he brought it, if you fire him for that you better hire the next Saban, Meyer, or Harbaugh. Instead we got Grumpy Old Men, followed by Cadillac Man.

Edsall was never a home run, but he was a solid double. Maybe he can get us back there, and this time we can set a succession plan to keep the momentum.

I think that will definitely be a part of this next phase. I don't see AD Dave short changing himself.

I think @WingU-Conn is right. Randy could have been here forever at the rate he was going on. He went to Maryland and had them poised for a similar run, but at most places that doesn't keep you employed forever, but here absolutely. He found out the hard way how 7-5, is looked at most places, and you're totally adversarial with the media.
