Message: [QUOTE="Blue Idiaco, post: 4700694, member: 9046"] in his first go-round he was infuriatingly stubborn and conservative and always blamed others for shortfalls. But he built strong offensive lines and running games, good to great special teams and had playmakers on defense. So despite little QB or WR talent, they could compete with most teams. A few good breaks and voila they make the Fiesta Bowl. How he handled that was atrocious as has been covered here. His second go round he simply mailed it in, had little interest in the job or elevating the program in any way. Re-hiring him after the failure at MD and the way he left set the program back almost as much as hiring Blue and iDiaco. Maybe more as he was point on cancelling the covid season, which furthered the general opinion that football just did not matter at all at UConn [/QUOTE]
