UConn make two horrible hires with Red Pants and Edsall 2.0.  I thought back then Edsall 2.0.was one of the worst hires that year when much better football coaches were available.  Edsall just got fired from Maryland where his team looked totally out of the sync, and his offense and defense were just outdated.  Still, we gave him a job and did not fire him after year 1 when it was clear he was over his head.

We picked the worst stretch of time to be bad in football.  Also, we are a victim of bad timing.  ACC took Louisville because FSU and Clemson had a hissy fit with the NC schools.  B12 didn't take us because FOX and B1G decided to destroy the PAC-12.

Going forward, I think this indy football with other sports in a regional conference make the most sense.  UConn just got a head start.  I can see all the valuable big schools doing that since there is no way teams like OSU and USC want to subsidize schools like RU and Northwestern forever.

UConn needs to secure a good streaming contract combined with linear TV for football ASAP.
