Lamont needs to be key in everything we do surrounding football and realignment. UConn is our pro team.

Agreed. But let’s not take chances, and throw as much $ and fulfill as much of his wish list that that state + boosters can pull off.No, but we are both gentlemen of a certain age. And while I can't say money isn't importatnt, it really isn't everything. I think he's found everything he's looking for at UConn.
My only fear is he’s tweeting to show public support while clutching the states wallet. His actions will speak louder than some nice tweets.We've got a friend in Ned. He gets it.
I hope you’re right. I love Mora and hope he stays….but just curious……have you ever been to Auburn?I didn't see it yet but my brother was gushing about how post-game Mora said the group he has is "the greatest group of people he's ever worked with." You can't buy that. I just can't see him giving that up go to someplace like Colorado or Auburn.
Of course not.I hope you’re right. I love Mora and hope he stays….but just curious……have you ever been to Auburn?
At least 2 plus and up the assistant pool $.We can pay Geno and Hurley $2M+, we can pay Mora $3M+.

No talk of empty cupboards, laying foundations or paint jobs, or total rebuilds. In other words, the talk of losers who lower expectations.And that's the biggie. He pulled back the curtain on the Wizard of Oz. It doesn't need a miracle or smoke and mirrors.
As @Waquoit would say, Mora is sexy in his competence.
The last guy was the worst. The first two just couldn't get it done. The last didn't even try, Job 1 was staying employed.No talk of empty cupboards, laying foundations or paint jobs, or total rebuilds. In other words, the talk of losers who lower expectations.
it's just so impressive how good we look on defense after being so abysmal for years. Even against teams we're outmatched against, we hit hard. Guys are in the right spots and are unloading on the other team. These guys bring the wood and out-tough their opponents.And that's the biggie. He pulled back the curtain on the Wizard of Oz.

I said this after Michigan. They made some TFLs, some sacks, forced a few punts and I believe they forced a turnover. It was like a tiny win in a blowout but you saw there were pieces there.it's just so impressive how good we look on defense after being so abysmal for years.

yeah and it's not even about those plays. just watching the guys lay the wood down on the opponent is night and day. Even when it's a 5 yard gain, some linebacker or safety is coming in and demolishing the dude. We see the other teams ball carriers and lineman get up after a play visibly sore from the hit. That hasn't been a thing in a while.I said this after Michigan. They made some TFLs, some sacks, forced a few punts and I believe they forced a turnover.

Randy's 2nd year back was like they thought they were playing 2 hand touch while everyone else was playing tackleyeah and it's not even about those plays. just watching the guys lay the wood down on the opponent is night and day.

If this was already posted forgive me. It's a must listen to presser...
