JM is much of what most has said here. What I see in him is someone who has been around coaching at a high level his whole life. The pro ranks are super stressful as are the P5 positions. He has had his taste in both those situations and have felt the highs and lows. He has started a new life with a new wife, is independently wealthy and has children living on the east coast. Here at UConn he comes into a situation where there is a history in football but had sunk into a deep black hole. He has the chance to do something that he has a passion for with very little pressure, no way to take it to a place worse than when he came in, receive all the highs and accolades when and if there is a turn around and still have his family near him. It's a win/win. If things don't work out he can walk out non the worse for wear. [/QUOTE]
