Lion's make playoffs..Edsall to split time between Lions/UConn

[EdgewoodNHV]

50% Edsall is probably better than 1000% Diaco or Pasqualoni so yeah, it's not ideal, but also, Diaco is gone, so I'll take it.

Win us some games in the fall and I'll definitely forget this happened.

PP and Diaco were so bad this board is suddenly stanning for every thing RE does and says. It will be amusing watching all of his new fans pull their hair out as Randy plays not to lose versus Holy Cross.

If it results in a winning season, I'll take it.

Everyone should use an electric toothbrush... this isn't the stone ages. #hottake

There are some people who cannot afford them. Same folks who have trouble paying utility bills, just sayin......

I hear what your saying but after 6 years of angst, I get that most posters are just tired of the same old same old and really want to believe that Edsall will bring the program back to respectability. Don't worry the minute Randy makes a major gaff or blunder it will be whacked pretty good. If he plays not to lose against Holy Cross, after the game most of us will be looking like either Michael Jordan or Yul Brenner!

I don't care "how he plays" against Holy Cross. I just want to see the second team in midway through the 4th Quarter, like the old days.

'Twas a joke... my apologies.

Were you not entertained by the Maine game?

Were you not entertained by the Maine game?

What makes you think Edsall will give a duplicate performance of that against HC?

 

[31GuardTrap]

Were you not entertained by the Maine game?

The difference..if.......if by some act of god....HC is actually in this game after half time:
Edsall will lay into the team thus to ensure that does not come close to happening again under his watch. Bobby continued to clap, pat behinds and give out participation stickers to the other squad.

I have no idea how UConn will perform, but a pretty good idea of how Edsall likes to coach. Conservatively. The same question could be asked of everyone expecting him to blow out FCS teams based on past performances.

My own dentist is continually impressed.

I was not entertained by Maine. I was not entertained by Stony Brook. I was not entertained by Towson. (I will admit to being mildly entertained by 'Nova, because I hate them 'cos of hoops and thought that would be a game where we could lose so just winning that one I was o.k. With given how bad we'd become.)

 

[ZooCougar]

I may have a poor memory, but Edsall was more conservative against Top 25 type teams. He took chances against lesser opponents and didn't open the playbook much against FCS teams but still ran them off the field even during 2005-2006 when we had losing seasons.

The most frustrating thing about Edsall was the special teams gaffes, blocked kicks and what have you.

It was a Diaco quote BTW, how anyone but Bob and the Maine cheering section could have been entertained by sweating out a win over an old Yankee Conference team is beyond me.

 

[Nostical]

I want to hear Jim Caldwell say after the Lions beat Seattle, "And I want to give special recognition to Randy Edsall, who despite becoming UConn's Head Coach last Monday chose to stick with his current commitment to the Lions and helped us prepare incredibly well for the Seahawks offensive scheme. UConn is getting one of the finest football minds and work ethic's I've ever had the pleasure to personally witness. But the Huskies already knew that. They hired him back. Now let's go beat the Cowboys!!"

So UConn's FCS opponents are green eggs and ham, or just UConn's performance vs. their FCS opponents?

I would not, could not in a tree.
Not in a car! You let me be.
I do not like them in a box. I do not like them with a fox.
I do not like them in a house. I do not like them with a mouse.
I do not like them here or there. I do not like them anywhere.
