I don't care how they do it, find creative ways to get #22 the ball.

Doesn't Randy usually do a presser on tuesdays around 11 am? Is that pushed back because game is Sunday?

Tomorrow due to Sunday v. Saturday game...

Randy still trying to make Block C happen.

That logo should be at the 50. Or somewhere on the field.

Good day to be on shady side of the field.

Sunday 09/24
Mainly sunny. High 88F. Winds NNE at 5 to 10 mph.

Hourly weather forecast for Sunday... East Hartford, CT Hourly Forecast | Weather Underground

That logo should be at the 50. Or somewhere on the field.

When AD Dave asked for ideas for the field logo, I suggested putting the Jonathan logo (current version) at the center of the field with an outline of the state around it. Still like that but this would be a close second.

It took a little convincing but my Pastor has given me permission to miss Sunday service because I told him I was sure Jesus would be in the huddle.

He had no advice on whether to take or give the points.

*** Heads Up ***

>>New This Week - In an effort to enhance security, walk-through metal detectors will be in use at all stadium entrances. Fans should expect delays and longer lines due to the new procedure.<<

Good week for trial run based on expected crowd size I guess but...

Interesting development w/ Nick Zecchino being out again. He took the spring semester off for health reasons. Wishes for a quick/complete recovery.

That definitely stood out... hope he’s ok.

Good God our offense is trash.

Called Swenson would get a starting spot this year. Kid can ball

I hope so. We need a play maker at DB desperately. Hopefully he can blow things up against ECU.

I thought that this was the most interesting change.

 

[CTMike]

We’ve got a lot of young pups getting burn on the 2 deep. There will be obvious growing pains this season. But I’m hopeful it will pay dividends down the road.

 

[uconnphil2016]

Losing Zecchino stings. Looked like RE didn't have much trust in Keating last week, given that we didn't attempt an FG or an XP all game. Hoping things are okay there.
