Patterson and The Boneyard

[BRS24]

Per Jeff Jacobs:

"Over the holidays, I had time to look at things. I got introduced to the Boneyard. It was Dec. 26. I didn't have anything to do other than to watch another football game. The thing that pleased me was it reminded me of the message boards for the Iowa Hawkeyes. Lots of people care. That's a good thing. I don't think I'll have too much time to read the Boneyard anymore, but it made for interesting reading."

Patterson does have a sense of humor.

"I did tell the staff when we were introducing each other around the table, I've always been called Coach P, but I guess around here that's not going to fly. I don't know what they're going to call me. Coach DP maybe."

Fairly sad that Double Penetration is preferable to Coach P, but he's right. "Coach P" is a toxic name at UConn.

Just read that. Cool beans. Lots of people do care.

 

[sportsart]

Too funny.

I say we make him an admin with banning abilities.

 

[CTMike]

I can only imagine what he read. Haha

So if a player gets chewed out by coach Patterson, he got DP'ed? Things really are changing with UConn football.

He should be called Dewey.

Of all the look-a-likes being thrown around over the last week or so, he looks like Dwight Evans the most. The two appear to be separated at birth.

How about he got the DP treatment?

Coach Don "Dewey" Patterson. Who's against this?

Great Great column by Jeff Jacobs. After reading that I feel like I know Coach DP and Coach Diaco much better. Even if we only get Coach Diaco for 3-4 years, I expect we'll get the max effort from him at every turn.

This staff has a great blend of youth and experience.

I think that is hilarious.

BTW, just read the article. Make me even more confident about Diaco. He has a real plan for success.

I take pride in the fact that I was the person who scolded the poster for referring to Coach Patterson as Coach P.

For humor go back a few pages and see what thread got a ton of responses that day.

I'll give you a hint, it involved another's teams fanatical poster giving us his "Official" bowl game prediction.

So what do you think Coach Diaco's username is here on the Boneyard?

 

[HobokenHusky]

How about he got the DP treatment?

I am getting the feeling that Coach DP's offensive philosophy primarily involves stuffing it in the open gap(s), even if it might seem like they aren't open wide enough.

This might seem like a taboo strategy, but I think this is a great plan for success long term. You just have to hope all the players are wearing their helmets for protection, especially in this day and age.

This was a great inside look at what we all on the board are constantly seeking here, and that's solid information about our staff and what led them to our program! It doesn't take much for Jacobs to do these kinds of things but it helps beginning to stir up the buzz when the fans feel they have the right people leading the program. So far I think "The Coach" is doing a great job putting together a staff that he can trust. There is not one hire I feel less than confident about based on what I've read thus far, this is a new day for Uconn FB.

FWIW, I think that Coach Peterson should just drop "Coach"and just go with DP!

Its recruiting season, I wonder if this staff will be the first one to land our first 5* recruit!!??? Your on the clock boys, go get em '!!!!!!

It certainly involves opening multiple holes and putting the defense in uncomfortable positions . . .

It certainly involves opening multiple holes .... .

Is this a DP reference?

There are a lot of double entendres being thrown around at this point.

Really?? There's resistance against Coach Dewey?

He was posting here for years under the moniker "HuskyFanDan".

Maybe Diaco was the real MakersMuppet?!

Being that I am a Yankee fan...yes.

Coach Patterson rules!

I want coach Patterson to know he should start Cochran. Lets not waste any of next season searching for something we have already found.
