Randy Edsall Come Home

[Waquoit]

Not to mention "He has taken us as far as he can. We need a new, modern offensive coach, to get us to the next level".

Was true, still true.

That's not fair. What got worse is the conference we're in. Edsall recruited in a BCS, automatic bid, conference. We are now in the equivalent of a CUSA. I don't think RE would be doing any better than Diaco at this point. Recruiting isn't easy at this place and time.

Yeah. PP was a better coach, just a worse conference.

I am a huge Randy guy - the Maryland experience showed he could change but he did not succeed. Sometimes the old saying, you never step in the same river twice is appropriate. Time for someone who believes in uptempo offense.

If Diaco is the HC at UConn as long as Edsall was, and for 4 of those years he gets a QB as good as DanO, I think he'd finish with a better record.

Take a look at the 2011 Fiesra bowl where UConn played #7 Oklahoma. The offense scored 3 points, had a little more yards rushing, less yards passing,and coincidentally had the same total yards of last night's game. The defense gave up over 500 yds passing and around the same amount of rushing yards. Final score Oklahoma 48 UConn 20. Randy Edsall

I would rather lose by 400 in a BCS bowl game every year than go 3-8 but hey what do I know.

I remember too well pre Oklahoma...the bitter taste will never leave my mouth.

Edsall was a good coach and yes he turned off many fans,parents and perhaps some players
the way he left was gutless but if u followed him Randy was for Randy first and Foremost
with that being said if his heart was in it and the program being where it wS say 2 years into his tenure I would welcome him back
He recruited well and had a good staff
BTW he lives around 20 minutes north of me .if I see him jogging I'll let him know heS missed lol
He will most likely be looking for a kid as I do not see Jim Cadwell surviving the year in Detroit

Here are some HC's I'd rather have:

1. You
2. Me
3. Southington HC Mike Drury
4. Makai Ashton-Langford
5. Jim Calhoun
6. Casey Cochran

You forgot the car wash guy

Yep- he went from a boring coach to a bad coach.
