The cost of housing in Silicon Valley was hurting Stanford's ability to get/keep Assistants. So, the school built houses on or near campus for the staff. They commute via golf cart. To me, it sounds too much like on-post Military housing or a "company town" thing.

Sounds like "The Prisoner."

Move in near Coach Ollie so they can compare notes and the love of the Huskies!

I think there would be a lot of merit to BD living close to KO.
 
If it was me I'd rather live in Mansfield, Coventry or Willington. All just minutes away without the traffic yet far enough to be able to "escape" campus for a relaxing, quiet ride home.

He should move to the gateway to Connecticut's quiet corner, Coventry! It's where I grew up. It's got, uh... er... Bidwell's! And, er... the lake!

Okay. Maybe Manchester or something with stuff. Cause let me tell you. Growing up in a place with nothin' to do but hang out in the woods and smoke pot...

.. is pretty great.

He can buy the little island in the middle of Coventry Lake. No power, he can go off the grid.

Besides, what better way than to start your morning commute than on a jet ski or boat?
 
Can we get this thread back on track? I'm sure the Diaco family collectively has the house hunting process under control. Geezus, I've never seen such an iniquitous throw away quote turn the entirety of Boneyard membership into a Bizarro World episode of Flip this House. On second thought, get Mrs. Diaco Than Merrill's phone number. I'm sure they can have a place ready in a matter of days.

Which recruits are the coaching staff focusing on?

I'm with you bro... Time to get serious about recruiting again... Unfortunately, it seems as though we won't really get any decent updates until the beginning of the end of next week since the dead period ends around that time....

There is no such thing as a bad day on a jet ski unless one separates a shoulder flipping over a wave (which I did), run out of gas (everyone I know did this), or accidently sends one’s girlfriend skipping across the lake after making a hairpin turn resulting in ‘couch duty’ for a week (gladly that was a friend, not me)…

My girlfriend was from Coventry and the only thing I remember, besides Bidwell is Dimitri's pizza. We used to get a pie from there every Sunday night and take it to her parents. Good times. Randomly ended up living with a bunch of guys from Coventry out here in Tahoe as well. Those guys all graduated sometime in the late 80's. Greg Schaffer and Nathan (crap, can't remember his name just that he had a twin brother named Dan). Would love to know what became of them. Great guys.

Doesnt he have kids? Wouldnt want to send my kids to Manchester schools in this day and age. Mansfield, Tolland, Glastonbury is what I would recommend from the immediate area.

I grew up in Manchester and wouldn' send my kids there now. Glastonbury, Mansfield/Storrs, maybe Coventry. Practices are early and he'll be watching film late, he's not going to commute far.

UConn recruiting coordinator Kevin Wolthausen said plan is to recruit local then branch out. Said couldn't speak on individuals. #uconn

Curious to see how "local" is defined.

He can walk across it in January. I'm pretty sure with the polar vortex that the lake is frozen over sufficiently.

If he can QUICKLY turn this dumpster of a program around he might be able to do that in the summer also

It's all about...location, location, location. Where do the Insurance Capitol of the World up and comers hang their Gucci bags at night?
;-)
 
Where's all this Manchester love coming from? Not really where you want to send your kids these days..

With what he's making, I'd say Glastonbury or South Windsor would be a good fit.

That's what I said about living in New Britain for six years, I realized later that you can take me outta Hard Hittin', but you can't take the Hard Hittin' outta me. ;)

Lived in Manchester in the 90s and worked in South Windsor for 12 years. Couldn't agree more.

BTW is Lena's still on Rte 5? Best calzone I ever had.
