Yep exactly what this team doesn’t need - practice.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Ridiculous.

 

[ZooCougar]

5 year plan.

 

[huskysupporter]

We lost by a combined 5,000 points the last two weeks. Let’s take a week off. Makes sense.

“5 year plan”

 

[Chief00]

I do think the players need a little break for sanity purposes. Maybe they can come back after a break and call it a new season and pull an upset in one of their two remaining games.

 

[scotty0330]

Let’s be honest has it appeared they have practiced at all this year? Several positions most notably quarterback have regressed while several others have shown little to no improvement. After getting embarrassed yet again can one really expect kids to be all on at this point? Give them some time off and come back ready to get waxed by ECU

 

[John Greene]

C'mon guys, not a big RE fan but the team badly needs some time off. Maybe they come back less tight and get a win. Stranger things have happened.

who said they shouldn’t get time off? He is giving them a week off. A couple days? Absolutely. A couple practices just in shoulder pads? Great. They are not practicing for a week.

Less tight? That’s Definitely not the signature of a Randy Edsall squad.

 

[Chief00]

Let’s pretend Randy is coming back - maybe they can focus on some recruiting task. Sometimes stepping back gives you a clearer head about things.

exactly why they need some time away from RE.

 

[RSTuthill]

I agree with no practice this week. They are worn down, heads not in a good place, they need to study, time to do a reset. Don't know why people would object to this. Haven't any of you coached a team at any level? This is absolutely the right move. Pretty basic actually.

 

[RSTuthill]

And although the staff are exhausted too, they have to hit the road this week.

 

[ASweet3781]

Bring back Whaler and Jimmy. Feel like this thread would be at 100+ posts if they were around. Board is getting eerily quiet as indifference and numbness settle in.

 

[BugsyCT]

What happened to Whaler anyway? The snarkiness level of this board recently has been glaringly low.

 

[uchusky32]

I think UConn football fans need a week off more.

 

[Chief00]

And although the staff are exhausted too, they have to hit the road this week.

For recruiting or job search?

 

[AndOne]

Season is over in 21 days. They can have all the time off afterwards. The team needs all the practice they can get. Edsell must think he's coming back for sure and wants to act more like a players coach.

 

[Chin Diesel]

This is really bad optics and mindset.

Can't miss a week of practice.

Agree with others- take a day or two off, walk through in pads, have participation team players shadow position coach while development players get reps. Do. Something.

LOLOLOLO

I've had the better part of a season off.

 

[Bongo Fury]

I agree with taking some time off. They are probably fried from getting whooped week after week. Hope they take it upon themselves to practice on their own.
