If Edsall gets fired, who's on short list of potential HC?

Speculation is fun but it is reality

Randy Edsall isn't going anywhere so suck it up buttercups

The administration and athletic department better realize that they have to fire him. If they don't, they won't have a team worth didly squat. If Edsall is still the coach after the holidays, many of the younger talented players might transfer. Would you want to play for a guy who constantly bashes you after every loss, and doesn't have the guts to take any responsibility? He has friends in the NFL so I'm sure he has a plane on standby like he did after the Fiesta Bowl. Lol

When Maine came into play UConn at Rentschler, their Defense LOOKED like a solid FBS experienced D ... on the first game of that season. That is good coaching ... and he was brand new HC using the previous guy's structure. I was impressed.

Then. They had a very solid year last year in the CAA and playoffs. That is impressive. Maine is a very tough place to Coach; and most every program in that conference has a better paradigm.

Was their defense good or was our offense THAT bad? Pretty sure it was the latter
 
I'm not getting the Steve Addazio hate here. He's an In State Guy who has a lot of Ct HS Coach contacts, if it wasn't for Urban Meyer's flakiness, Addazio would have been Head Coach at Florida

Neither am I, he is a CT guy and his Cheshire teams set the state record of 49 consecutive wins back in the mid 90's. He has struggled at BC but finally put together a decent ACC team last year with CT recruits AJ Dillon, Zach Allen, and a couple other great players from other states. He is a great recruiter despite BC's high admission standards, and he was right in the middle of those great Florida teams ten years ago. Wasn't he the OC?

Are you saying it was his fault, or was it because of injuries, graduated seniors, UM calling plays, etc? I mean not arguing here just looking for info if you have it.

Addazio and Edsall are very similarly minded coaches. Both are old school, establish the run first guys. I'll stick with Randy for now, and yes, the recruiting has picked up since he arrived back. Not a good time to make a coaching change right now, but next year he'll have to show some real results.

Addazio is a much better recruiter than Edsall ever was, either at UConn or Maryland. The joke for years about Edsall's recruiting talents is "would you buy a used car from this man"?

I get that we need to win games, and this is Randy’s watch. But, I have to disagree on the compare to Addazio. UConn had like the 6th most players in the NFL at one time. He must have been a good recruiter at one time, just recruited kids that needed to be developed. Or, he has an eye that other coaches or rating agencies don’t. I would love to see the count of players that each coach sent to the league. Thank god that he wooed Aaron Hernandez to UF.

I would want an offensive-minded HC. We haven’t had one since we went D1.

If I could have given you five "likes" I would have. Joe Moorhead was an offensive minded coach, which is probably the reason he left UConn.
