Just watched Casey and TJ beat Memphis

[Hoophound]

Wow, We looked good with TJ Weist in charge. Casey was really good too. I remember when we’d all debate whether or not Weist should have been hired. Whaler11 would claim the 3 wins to close the season under Weist were against bad teams and basically garbage. Looking at those games now, he had something going with those kids. We played some really good looking football. We marched down field, had a trick or two up our sleeve and the kids were having a blast. Obviously, Weist would have been better than Diaco. What may have been.

Anyway, decided to take it easy tonight and watch some old games to get in the mood for football season. It is amazing how many great moments we had in our first 11-12 years in big time football. Can’t wait for the season.

Was a huge miss. But, the endless string of self inflicted carnage needs to be left in the rear view mirror or you’ll go nuts.

Could you imagine winning back to back to back vs Temple Rutgers and Memphis right now?

 

[Adios]

Somehow, I was at the game against UL, which I believe was Boyle's last start that year. Barely anyone at the stadium at some point, as it was a night game and we were losing. Was able to get close to the UConn bench, and I kept yelling to TJ to play Casey instead. TJ looked as if his antennas went up suddenly, while expressing frustration in his face with the team's situation.

Glad he heard.

Was that one of those cold short sleeve days?By most accounts TB was so much better. My theory is that Casey didn’t practice well. That’s why I don’t care if a QB is named this week.

Casey threw a lot of short passes and his ball floated softly, but he was deadly accurate. I suspect the coaches had trouble choosing the smaller local kid with the feathery touch to the big local kid with a canon for an arm. Tim has turned into a good QB, but back then, it was no contest. Casey owned the field.

Wasn't Memphis a bad team that year?

I’ve blocked out the last ten years. Rip van winkle like. Just woke up

Wasn't Memphis a bad team that year?

Yes. But we looked like Alabama against them. We haven’t even looked like Wake Forest once since.

Yes but lately we can’t even get first downs against Wagner let alone carve up even a bad Memphis team like that.

I'm just trying to imagine winning one.
