Maybe there is someone else to fire.

If Benedict "can't fire" BD because he is not gonna be allowed, the maybe we need to start calling for Susan H to be terminated. Maybe she needs to view this situation as . . . either he goes or she goes.

You do realize elite universities can handle sucking at football, right?

Colorado apparently couldn't. Same for Kentucky. And Tennessee. Let's see how long Oregon, South Carolina and Texas handle sucking. Or maybe, UCONN is so elite that it can handle sucking at Men's BB too.

I hate Herbst but this is ridiculous

 

[TouchdownHusky]

Someone needs to go . . . Susan Herbst? Dave Benedict? Bob Diaco? I know who I'd wanna see leave, but maybe the blame for UConn's embarrassment to the entire state can be laid at someone else's feet.

UConn as a whole is anything but embarrassing to the state.

Our first priority as a state institute of higher learning is not football. That would be a pretty hard sell. But don't get me wrong, I understand where the feeling comes from. Diaco must go....Benedict and Herbst must fully support that. If they don't, Saturday afternoons will look a lot different then we had hoped a few short years ago. But UCONN will still be a great academic institution.

I want UConn to be #1 in academics before anything. Alumni & Grew up 15 miles from Storrs.

You realize UConn as an institution is better than all those schools but Texas... And we can't be compared to Texas because they are in one of the nest states for football recruiting.

Given our success in basketball, it seems we can be a punching bag for the greater good in football. We helped revive SMU football. Twice, I think. We sure helped SMU in basketball.

Besides, if basketball isn't so important in college athletics, why the heck is Michigan football wearing a brand that silhouettes a basketball player for the company logo?

Colorado hasn't been to a bowl in 10 years, Kentucky 6 or 7 .

Academics are only going to improve if we get into a power conference (or at least a ravaged Big 12) and start to play better. Basketball put Storrs on the map, and football had made it stay there until about 5 years ago. Our US News & World ranking went DOWN this year for the first time in a long time. Not good.
