Edsall stepping down immediately

[Adios]

It sounds like Randy tried to retire before Dave could fire him. This is on Randy.

 

[Purple Stein]

People wanted him out. It took 2 days but he’s out. Must everything be a complaint?

Lol - you think we handled this well?

 

[JMick]

I sincerely hope he wasn’t allowed to say goodbye to anyone or collect his things from his office. Karma.

Based on Spanos comments it doesn't sound like Randy told him..

 

[Hoophound]

Lol - you think we handled this well?

Seems like Randy got slick.

Based on Spanos comments it doesn't sound like Randy told him..

What did Spanos say? A recap would be great. Couldn’t listen.

This contract year ends in December:

He just sounded as clueless as everyone else

Spanos not saying much to Crispino

 

[SirHypeAlot]

Okay so he had also completely lost the locker room

Goodbye and good riddance. My Rentschler strike ends after 48 hours!

It was a weird answer to the question that was asked

 

[Sonova]

Whoa. Where does that leave Corey?

Who cares?

 

[Adios]

Lol - you think we handled this well?

You mean, do you think Randy handled this well? Obviously not.

Spanos has been the HC for about 12 minutes and already sounds better than anything Edsall did in the last 4 years

 

[Adios]

It was a weird answer to the question that was asked

He doesn't want drama for his team.

This is it in a nutshell.

If Lucien is being honest, then I'm glad it's happening now. Let Spanos do his thing and try to get the ship back on course. Could even be somewhat of a prolonged interview if he can get results.

If Lucien is just saying what he thinks he needs to say? Well,... let's hope it's the former, not the latter...

 

[BugsyCT]

Well, so much for the warm & fuzzy retirement tour. That departure went as smoothly as his first one. Guess it's better for us as fans to see a clean break made now then.

 

[Coach J]

Whatever Spanos does he should start by finding a QB who can hit wide open down field receivers and letting his DBs know to turn their heads and make a play on the ball when the WR is attempting to catch it and TO NOT BE AFRAID TO GET THEIR HANDS DIRTY AND HIT THE NEXT GUY RUNNING THRU THE DEFENSE UNTOUCHED.

[Purple Stein]

Well, so much for the warm & fuzzy retirement tour. Edsall handled this as well as his first departure.

My thoughts exactly - bailing on the team just like he did last time.

 

[aburks41]

We need Hard Knocks to follow UConn around at all times. Might as well get some funny material out of this

 

[kris1]

Wow he's outa here faster than a 3 yard run up the middle.

Faster then the first time for sure

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

Benedict has had a pattern of messy firings. Ollie...Diaco and now Edsall. We all know what happened with Ollie. And remember Diaco wasn't fired until January...after Benedict tried to force Diaco to take on a new OC.

I like Benedict....probably just circumstances...just seems odd.

 

[huskymedic]

Whoa. Where does that leave Corey?

[UCFBfan]

Who cares?

Our recruiting class for next season apparently. Don't remember which of the multiple threads I've read that someone posted the tweet, but two of our recruits tweeted that they were with Corey to the end..... he's going to be vital to keeping a lot of this really solid class together.

I think he is one of the most important pieces of this staff.
