Nah - in this day and age they can rebuild through the portal in no time. If anything, he’s probably licking his chops. He’ll be able to say “I took over a program that was dominated by UConn and look at us now”
Now instead of drafting Rutgers players he can get them through the portal.
No but I do wonder if he's having 2nd thoughts of having Freddie Kitchens on his staff. Belichick wasn't even there because he knew UNC was gonna get dominated.
Not to be that guy…but he isn’t a junior. I am amazed how long he has been coaching football and announcers still get this wrong.
They know Shaky but it's become shorthand to distinguish the two in an instant.
Well that’s just lazy. there is only one Jim Mora has been active for years.
He was JMJ in the media for at least 20 years before his Dad faded from view. It's established.
Now we just need to get men’s hockey and soccer up a level
I don't want to be that guy either and I assumed Coach Mora was not a Junior. I don't believe he uses Junior in his name. However, I think it is actually up to the individual as to whether he wants to be named "Junior" regardless of his exact name. Announcers may get it wrong or they may just use Junior to distinguish between the two. I've seen it written that Junior is appropriate if the first and last names are the same. In the end I think it's a matter of choice. So it may be fine for announcers to use Junior if only to distinguish between the two.
I have never heard ot that. I know on his wikipedia it says he isn’t a junior. I tried to search and everything I find says all 3 names have to be the same.
You forgot Penders.
I did not know that. Same age as HCPP and HCRE2 0 when they took over. But it quickly became apparent that he had a much different skill set.
I was concerned about his time away from college football. Especially with all the recent changes. Would he be able to adapt to the new environment?
During the USA vs Germany World Juniors game the other day on NHL Network, they had a full screen graphic on a couple of UConn kids during one of the intermission reports.
Haha... no. If anything, he's probably thinking, "Cool, now I have carte blanche to get rid of everyone and go on a portal shopping spree."
Here's what I knew from reading the tea leaves, I knew we were getting a coach who knows what he's doing. A coach who was looking at this project as more than just a gig, a check. Like JC, he saw it as "doable."
