Well, Randy promised improvement and he has delivered. Runs a brutal offense but that's what you get with Coach Edsall.

At least the team is not what it was last year. There is improvement, the team needs to gain confidence and handle pressure better. We should be able to beat Liberty and UMass regularly. I hope.

Last year. The man hasn't misled anyone. Look, I don't blame UConn fans from being fed up with the pace of the turnaround. But Coach is performing as he told us to expect and his bosses in the AD seem satisfied.
Lmao. He tears it down to all time worst levels and gets credit for improving from there. We deserve him as a coach if that is what we are going to applaud him for.

It's time to see Randy off. My god, how are these kids still playing for a coach that keeps putting them in positions to lose?
I'm honestly worried/interested as to how many transfer outs we might have after this year. With the horrible results over the past three years under RE, coupled with upcoming Independent status, I can see many of these kids considering going elsewhere.

I wouldn't blame them either.

I'm sure in his interview he promised he wouldn't win a conference game in two years.

this team is horrendous. Doesn’t mean they aren’t better than last years team but last years team was historic level bad.

and next years team is not going to be much better.

There are enough that could enjoy life more at MAC schools than the dumpster fire that is our program

No defense for Edsall. But you can't have 5 different head coaches in 9 years.

There are plenty of winnable games next year. See if he can do it. If not, our future scheduling will be much more complete than it is this coming December for a prospective coach to see. If scheduling goes the way it seems, being a quasi-P5 team might be very attractive to competent coaches.

Newsflash, watch how our players get picked up by other programs. Like Beavers at Cincinnati.

It's ain't the players it's the coach.

it’s both but it all comes back to the coach. HCRE 2.0 has been nothing short of a disaster. Talent Evaluation, Coaching, Roster decisions.

Agreed but man does it hurt to watch this team play. All I could think during the game was that losing teams have losing players who make losing plays and we had a ton of that. Coaching / play calling didn’t help them at all.

What was the point of putting in Krajewski to have him hand off the ball five times in a row. You give him one more series and then you pull him? Flashes of Nebrich.

Edit: Except for Ross and Drayton who were pretty good especially for freshmen.
