I can't tell you how happy I was to receive the email from Benedict today announcing Diaco's firing. My first thought is that he didn't intend to fire him but Benedict discovered from discussions that there was an unbridgeable gap between them over the direction of the new OC hiring and the new hire's responsibilities. Don't underestimate a return by Edsall. He had unprecedented success at UCONN, had his shot at his 'dream job', failed, and is likely a bit humbler as a result. He could see this as his last job as it should've been before he bailed on us. I'd like to see Skip Holtz get an interview. We need an offensive minded coach who doesn't view us as a stepping stone. That's one thing you could be sure of with Edsall.
