Jim Mora’s new staff coming together…

Well ... just sitting here on the Group W bench waiting for the Monday or Tuesday announcements .... Trying to stay entertained and ward off the boredom.
 
Try macrame or needlepoint.
Actually the discussion about the merits of job posting is holding my attention quite nicely. Those of us on the Group W bench don't need much to keep us entertained.

Btw, do you know who sits on the Group W bench? For that matter, do you know who Officer Obey is?

Uhhh...apparently mother stabbers and father rapers? And Officer Obie likes glossy photos of crime scenes.

Specifically 8"x10" glossy photos.
27 of them to be precise. With a paragraph on the back of each one. That the blind judge could not see. And the folks here who are too young to have experienced the draft must think that we are absolutely nuts.

Well, to be honest, I'm 54 and had no idea what you were referring to without the use of the Google machine. I have heard the song, but never read through the lyrics. I almost needed a drink at 6 am. I'll stick to my 80's music.

I didn't even know I needed to Google something until you mentioned it. I've also heard the song, but never truly listened.
Also 54.
 
Mora just started following Gordon Sammis, ol coach at William and Mary
Flemington, NJ native, UVA '07 alum; guard. In addition to Bill & Mary. Sammis' OL and run game coordinator background includes Wahoos' Grad Assistant, VMI, Lafayette, and Columbia (recruiting coordinator). Likely DMV, PA, Joisey, prep and military prep school relationships. Heavy DMV, NJ, and Keystone State presence on current Tribe OL.

Yes please.
 
I like the way he describes learning the protections quickly. Too often our guys have been beat not by getting outplayed, but just blocking (or not blocking) the wrong guy.

I hope it works like he describes. Fingers crossed.


That was interesting and makes a lot of sense, plus it includes the QB in the equation by stating he can't drop back more than 8 or 9 yards or it defeats the blocking scheme.
Hire him with the caveat that he looses $100 in salary for every "OK" he utters.
 
Each time, over the last few years of UConn's football troubles, I find the most enjoyable thing about UConn football, for me, was looking forward to how they will improve under a newly hired coach. I have been wrong each time but, really believe that this time that they will actually improve and that over the next few years I will enjoy watching the football too.
