[Husky92]

As the title suggests:

Here's the blurb on UCONN:
UCONN

Spring start: March 10

Spring game: April 12

What to watch:

• New leader: Bob Diaco had an introductory news conference like few others. The former Notre Dame defensive coordinator is filled with energy, and he certainly brings a new approach atop the program following the Paul Pasqualoni and Randy Edsall eras. He already has made some cosmetic changes in the training facility, but bringing immediate change on the field is a bigger challenge in 2014.
• Casey Cochran. The Huskies won their final three games last season, putting up 28 or more points in all three contests. Cochran passed for a school-record 461 yards in the finale, and seeing how he and the rest of the quarterbacks develop under this new staff will go a long way toward determining what UConn can do next season.
• Defensive replenishments. For all of their struggles in recent years, the Huskies haven't lacked for talent or effort on the defensive side of the ball. That shouldn't change under Diaco, who won the Broyles Award as the nation's top assistant coach as Notre Dame's defensive coordinator in 2012. But replacing standouts such as Shamar Stephen and Yawin Smallwood won't be easy.

Not a bad deal from ESPiN. Even if they didn't dig too deep, it seems an accurate surface reflection of things.

For those who thought Casey faced an easy defense in Memphis, this was in the Memphis write up. Casey contributed to them looking so bad.

• Defensive growth: The Tigers were ranked 39th last season in total defense, and eight starters return. The unit gave the offense chances to win last season against league heavyweights Louisville and UCF before falling by a 24-17 margin in both games, and the Tigers welcome two new coaches in Ricky Hunley (line) and Ryan Walters (corners).

after Cochran ripped their heart out. BTW we didn't score in the first quarter so i'm not sure they quit early second quarter. Memphis had the lead.

I hope Cochran turns out to be half as good as you pimp him out to be.

We can agree on that!!
