Pasqualoni to Texans as DL Coach

[UConnDan97]

Please do, I'd love to hear how P impacted Newsome.

If only P had more classes? It's quite a team he put together this year.

Smallwood both got worse over his career and stupidly left early. That was some solid coaching.

So which is it? The classes he's coached? Or the classes he's recruited?

You can't have it both ways. If it's the classes he's coached, I've already given you the list of players. If it's the classes he's recruited, we don't know yet. So pick one to argue with and stick with it...

By the way, I've missed these little bouts of ours! Agreeing with you 98% of the time was getting boring lately...

I give him very little credit for coaching players that were very good before he got to UConn. That someone played better as a senior than a sophomore isn't shocking.

If there was any talent in the classes he recruited he did nothing with it. 2-10 in the AAC with his players. If one or two make it to the NFL that's good and all but it's an embarrasing amount for an FBS program.

I can't be polite and wish the guy well. He was a disastrous cancer that caused incalculable damage to UConn football. His loyalty to GDL was greater than his loyalty to UConn, and that makes him one bad dude in my book.

 

[Srqhusky]

What is worse conference realignment or coach p to Uconn football

 

[polycom]

Considering this board loves to rave about the D-line...that success can directly be attributed to PP. Facts are facts. After speaking with many of the players of the D-line mentioned on this board they explicitly mentioned PP spending time with them during practice helping them with hand techniques and foot work.

Even though you have first hand source you will never convince whaler. He is still stuck on Edsall. Edsall could fart wet burritos in the produce isle of a grocery store and he would be convinced Edsall sold five pounds of bananas

He did a terrible job. But I can't wish ill will on anyone that put in an effort. He didn't sign is own checks.

The less you agree with me on any topic the more convinced I am that I'm right. So that post isn't all that hurtful.

I so agree with this post, I feel like he charged me a few million dollars to burn my house down. I hope he gets the plague.

 

[CL82]

Again, you fail to understand what I wrote.

Nah, Dan, that's his whole gig. He's the strawman king. Kind of not worth the effort trying to bring him back to the point. Some people want to discuss an issue, some just want to bicker. I avoid the latter.

Regarding P. He's the nuclear bomb of college coaches. Here and at Syracuse he did devastating damage and left a toxic mess behind.

I keep having the thought in the back of my head, "What if PP left Moorhead as the OC when he got here, and never brought GDL?" Maybe we could have scored more than 12 points in a friggin' game. Maybe Foley would have continued to produce 1,200 yard rushers. Maybe we would still have been "penned in" to the ACC. It's the type of thought that keeps me up at night...

...but he didn't and instead we were left with a program that finished last year with 20 open scholarships. It's like making the jump to 1A all over again, but Orlovsky isn't coming out of the tunnel.

Dan. Dan. DAN!!!!!! Stop it.

Oh, okay. I'll stop. Let's return to the 6 threads on deflated footballs, because that stuff is fascinating!!!

 

[ZooCougar]

You do realize uconn had one of its best defenses under him. But continue to give no credit and ruin your credibility

So good that his DC quit on him. Congrats you're the last Pasqualoni guy here. Now go stand in the corner.

Too bad he couldn't do head coach type stuff, and you know, leave that to the D-Line coach.

I think there is some sort of miscommunication going on here. Let me try to fix it.

UNLESS I'M MISTAKEN, NOBODY IS ASKING TO HAVE PP BACK. Literally, nobody. NOBODY is happy with his performance as the head coach. Literally, nobody. If anybody thinks that I've misrepresented them with that statement, feel free to correct me. I'm pretty sure that there will be no correction necessary.

The issue is whether or not sucking hard as a head coach precludes you from knowing anything about a certain aspect of the game or being a competent positions coach. That's all. If people are having a hard time prying their feelings away from that specific discussion, then this discussion is not for them. And the reality is that there have been 4 NFL franchises over the last 10 years who have felt that he knew his stuff on the defensive side of the ball. Now, unless they are non-profit charity organizations, I'll weigh their opinions slightly higher than some of those that I see on this board.

But PP sucked as a head coach. Yes. We get it. Nobody is arguing. Nobody...

All of those organizations also managed to get rid of him pretty quickly too....

 

[UConnDan97]

If it was as simple as an organization trying to quickly get rid of him, it would be difficult to get the next job. He seems to get the next job with relative ease. I know that you know better than that, so I'm not sure why you are continuing to fight this fight. But I'm sure as heck bored with it.

God didn't put me on this earth to defend Paul Pasqualoni. He put me on this earth to tell the world that UConn will be 15-0 in our next season. And now I'm here to tell ya...

Yes, That's where I saw it, even Bart could see the handwriting on the Wall. He was punished by writing this in an episode from October 2014.

while he was bad, hathaway hiring him was worse

 

[whaler11]

It's an odd thing that someone would want go be the guy who defends Paul Pasqualoni.

2009 fired by Miami as DC.
2010 leaves Dallas as DC to go
to UConn - defense was ranked 31st in points allowed
2011-2013 LOL
2014 1 year with Bears and on to Texans

Did you really need it shown that he hasn't exactly had stable employment in his post Syracuse days?

He does keep getting jobs which I guess says something like Dan points out... but damned if I can't figure out why anyone would attempt to say anything positive about Pasqualoni. A couple of players who were already on the roster when he got here played in the NFL. As DC would say: Whooptie Damn Doo

Srq and others were defending P almost literally until he was fired. Nothing has changed.

 

[FDNY99]

I am utterly amazed that there are members of this board...people who call themselves UCONN football fans...that actually have the nerve to defend Paul Pasqualoni!
