Is Athletic Director Dave Benedict Out of Touch With UConn Football Fans

Randy's been a good Ambassador. Like former HC PP he's a good man who puts in the work. Corey brings an incredible amount to the program. But after yesterday, just wow to this. Except in recruiting we haven't moved forward and the offense is a dumpster fire. They have to be looking at a year end evaluation and be ready to make a change unless a miracle occurs.

Edsall is a POS.

Welp, time for Krajewski.. if he stinks it up go to Leon and if all 3 stink play Tyler P the last 4 games.

HCRE gets the year. No way is he fired before that. Not with Covid, the year off and making a change now makes zero sense. I know some hated his re-hire, but he is here now and has till December at the very least, so deal with it

Go support the players if nothing else

If you really supported the players, you’d be calling for a coaching change before dinner tonight.

UConn just gonna ride the sport of basketball all the way to....nowhere.

Asking the football program for directions?

Who replaces him from the staff?

Corey lol

Susan from the secretarial pool

Who replaces him from the staff?

after watching the starting defense ignore Lou Spanos, I'm guessing it's not him.

 

[CallMeBruce]

I’m sure he’s reading and listening to frustrations but understands where the university is financially.

I don't understand what this means. Fire Edsall and give his money to a new coach. There are dozens of better coaches making less money. Hire almost any one of them. He doesn't have a buyout. There's no real financial incentive to keep him around.

Some people may think our program hit rock bottom losing to Holy Cross today. We actually hit rock bottom when we canceled our football season last year and made no attempt to play a single game.

Last years non season was 10x more embarrassing than today, and that’s saying something.

I am beginning to think they used covid as an excuse when the coaching staff saw how bad they would be. Unfortunately, couldn't cancel this year as well.

What’s up with the running game? Carter had a couple of good runs. If Jack Zergiotis could’ve tucked and run better rather than strip sacked. Should be thinking use your feet if pass isn’t there.

Bad offensive line=pressure on QB and no openings for running backs.

It would appear on the surface that the answer to the original question is no.

it 100% was. Even if the virus was the real reason to cancel in the first place, most schools that originally canceled their season pivoted and started the season late. We made no attempt. They didn't view our football season as something worth trying to play. That speaks volumes way much more than this brutal loss to Holy Cross.
