It's the coaches (not the freshmen or any other player)

[Palatine]

Edsall's offense is built for the 1950s. There is no way the players can be confident when the play calling shows the coach is a scared little bunnny. Afraid to pass. Calling give up plays on third down.

15 yards passing against UMass. Do we even practice throwing to the WRs?

This is beyond pathetic. Benedict needs to call Edsall on the carpet. Either move your offense into the 21st century or move your stuff out.

I don't know about you, but I found the game to be exciting.

This is why the 4-stars don't come here. They know about ancient Edsall.

The one pass I remember Pindell throwing more than 5 yards beyond the LOS, the WR had the defense beat on the sideline and Pindell underthrew it at least 5 yards, for an INT.

It was actually a great call. Wasn't the coaches fault.

Should have been a walkover. No excuses.

RE said after the game Pindel was having trouble gripping the football.

Pindell said he wasn’t.

 

[Alum86]

Army offense without the competence.

Reality is a cliff and Palatine is the waves that smash it’s shore.

Something tells me Randy Edsall is not the sole obstacle to 4-star recruits deciding to come here.

Does Benedict even exist anymore? I'm watched the worst 3 UConn football seasons, 2 worst men's basketball seasons, and worst women's soccer team during his short tenure. Even Geno has thrown away 2 titles the last 2 years. I don't see or hear from him these days.

True story, I once overheard Lew Perkins call in a non revenue UConn coach into his office and berate her for losing to a New England school the previous day. "We want to be the best in the northeast in everything, this included...you cannot lose a game to a regional school lower than us. It doesn't look good." I miss that strategic vision. Its missing and you see it on multiple courts/fields around Storrs.

Benedict says the fans need to support this football team more. Well he is a hypocrite he needs to support this team more and UConn as a whole

I've seen midget football teams coached and play better.......Uconn coaches are afraid the players may drop a pass when the ball is wet........oh wait.......we do that when the sky is sunny and the field is scoarched

 

[Chief00]

UConn bringing back Edsall was like the NY Giants reversing course on benching Eli Manning. Many fans for both teams wanted the familiar and it was viewed by the leaders as safe. The result was no future.

This embarrassment is totally on Edsall. When our group of 3 were literally calling every play before it happened, I can only imagine what the UMass defensive coordinator was thinking. Actually, we could hear him from our seats...He was laughing hysterically screaming, "I can't believe I get paid for this!!! It's too easy!"

On that 4th and inches in the first half, deep in UMass territory, UMass had 4 players stacked between our guards and we tried to run it right into them. Embarrassment. And it ain't getting better when these freshmen age up. It's over Johhny.
