Here's what I know take it for what's it worth

[FDNY99]

I say WM let's P know sometime between 11/28 and 12/1...announcement made he won't return 12/2 or 12/3 and Memphis will be his last game.

 

[noeynox]

Man I hope this guy is,right.

 

[Jimdish255]

Don't know who to believe except for my own two eyes. Last year they said it's time for a change and because certain persons didn't want to beleive their own eyes they might end up presiding over a national disaster next week.

what if we beat michigan? Then what?

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Whuuuu . . . . you mean two coaches who have been together for almost 35 years aren't playing nice with the first coach specifically hired to split them up?

Rick: How can you close me up? On what grounds?
Captain Renault: I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!

Awesome (and quite appropriate) reference!

Whether people liked Manuel deciding to, or beng forced to, give Pasqualoni more opportunity to show evidence of righting the Huskies' ship, the former also allows himself some face saving over 1/4 of the season versus after 1 terrible loss, Towson. After what appears to be a likely 3rd loss, Manuel will have all the ammo required ... and UCONN (including the BOT - Larry "pushed the Pasqualoni hire" McHugh and even Pres Herbst) saves some face. Get it done, move forward ...

Kudos to those who have the energy to even complain and pretend to be shocked and dismayed. It's one thing not to have talent and wholly another to have poor execution and no intensity. Any (I mean any since 2001) Uconn would physically kick the living out of this team on both sides of the ball, and we had few very underwhelming squads in the past.

 

[uconNYC]

He'll be gone, so at this point I really don't care when it happens.

 

[bigAbruns]

UConn comes out to play the first 6 minutes of every game.....unfortunately its a 60 minute game and the other team knows how to make adjustments.

 

[HuskyNan]

The fact that people close to HS football have inside knowledge does not fill me with hope.

Kids on the team are telling their old coaches, would be my guess.

Most embarrassing.Home losing Streak.Ever

At least we have SMU and Memphis coming up.....

We could lose to both if things don't change. Having watched Memphis/Duke and SMU/Texas Tech neither is as inept as us. After last night it became painfully clear that Towson was not an abberation but instead, it is exactly who we are. This defense is neither aggrresive or disciplined. No contain on outside runs whatsoever.

 

[RegisteredUconn]

The voice of reason speaks!!!! P will NOT BE FIRED before the last game. It's pretty certain we won't win 7, so Ward is presently gathering resumes and talking to people. We wiil have a new man by 12/20.

When a normal person discovers they are going in the wrong direction don't they stop and turn around? I know I do.

One of my friends who played at UCONN said it best ladt night..."0-12 is not out of the picture"

As if the players would know that a coaching change would be coming up?

 

[ruskin]

I took Nan's interpretation to mean the players are telling their old coaches how bad things are in the locker room and the word is spreading from threre

 

[HuskyNan]

If WM has specific criteria for PP's performance in order to keep his job and a timeline to produce it, I'm sure he's discussed it. If PP said anything to anyone, the secret is out. Anyone who's been on a team or in any tight-knit group knows how hard it is to keep a secret.

 

[billybud]

Sometimes...new coaching staff can kick start a team going the wrong direction....It can create a sense of renewal, energize recruiting, and give fans hope.

Sometimes you even need to fire a legend...guys like Bobby Bowden. But when a team is headed in the wrong direction...you know what they say...insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

 

[uconnell]

Unfortunately there is no one to replace Hank and let's face it, our defense looks lost. The way we passed on first and second down early and had success and then run, run, pass became our norm again puzzles me to no end.[/quote

Foley. Move Hank!

Fire him anyway for underachieving to date.

 

[ZooCougar]

No doubt in mind. These coaches have forgotten how to win football games. The Huskies are more than capable of being the second best team on the field in every game they play.
