Is UConn Facing a Structural Problem?

Over the last ten years, Northwestern is just a handful of losses behind UConn in the loss column. Arizona has been downright awful in who they have lost to and by some blow out scores. You would think recruiting would be easier for them being in a P5 but apparently not. That all being said, these losers have a great many more resources than UConn does.
Maybe you are thinking of Northwestern from yesteryear? They’ve had several 10-win seasons recently and were a top 15 squad the covid year. They were awful last year though.
 
Mora is not a good coach. We all got duped by 6 wins because we have been bad for years. Let’s get Bob Chesney in here next year. He has turned around worse programs. He’ll probably end up at BCU and we will all be miserable watching BCU getting back into the top 25.
Are you crazy? We’re so lucky to have someone of his caliber. He needs help though. A real DC, a real ST, and a much better OC. He’s spread too thin.

They were 1-11 last year and 3-9 in 2021, 2020 they had a very short season, and were 3-9 again in 2019. They have had 693 losses through the many years they’ve played football.

Historically a bad program. It’s just weird to go after them for the last 12 years which included two B10 title games. Put it this way, they won about as many games from 2015-2018 as UConn since the Fiesta Bowl season.

Kansas is the P5 program you were looking for over this time period I think.
 
whoopty do.

We’ve been an awful program for 12 years. That’s why we haven’t been invited to the P4. You have yet to make a point that refutes that.
Past performance may not reflect future results. Really have to give JM some more time. The team is now playing. They haven't given up. Wins will come. The coach really needed to figure out what he as stepped into and he can resolve it. Remember when UConn joined the Big East in basketball? How many years were we battling for last place with Seton Hall prior to the arrival of JC? It can turn around, and it will. I do agree that there are problems with lack of conference identity and independent scheduling. But, it is possible to turn it around.

Good lord

The only point I’ve made ITT is why we have not yet been invited to the P4. I’m not talking about the future.
 
I imagine one answer is: Bob Chesney is the guy who filed for a restraining order against NE football.

He's Holy Cross' head football coach. I'm not sure I'd be happy about moving on from Mora if this is the result but if he had been the guy we hired after RE 2.0 I would have been open minded about it.
Thanks, if I knew we were looking at NE fb coaches, I'd have chosen Bill Bowes, UNH. Ruined UConn IAA YanCon season almost every year.
