Should the Boneyard Be Represented?

[RSTuthill]

This is a serious question. All the stakeholders should be represented including the fans. It would need to be a longtime fan who looks at things with a dispassionate analytical view who has played the game at the college level. I would be unqualified, but we need somebody with those qualifications. Self nomination encouraged.

There are those who would say "that'll be the day". So what? Should it happen?

I will vote Yes.

I nominate @Guapo so he can make the argument for a triple option coach

 

[BlueDogs]

The collective knowledge of this group far exceeds any consultancy firm, as does its collective stupidity. So, it’s a wash.

 

[CTMike]

The problem is none of you can be trusted.

 

[Yup!]

I would go with huskymedic

 

[crazyUCfan23]

The boneyard has a collective couldnt've done more worse than the previous 3 coaches lol

 

[CTMike]

I would go with huskymedic

I stand corrected, Medic can be trusted.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Pretty sure we will have representation.

 

[NowInStorrs]

The Boneyard should just be the next coach. We can call the plays in the chat.

Yeah I want us to do a “Twitch coaches UConn football” sort of thing. It would fail spectacularly but it would at least be entertaining

When they get down to 3 candidates we should the incorporate Boneyard Dating Game Rules.

 

[Brochacho]

I voted yes. It just can’t be someone normal though. Need to make sure whoever it is captures the true essence of the Boneyard.

I have no doubt that Dave reads and absorbs information here. This board offers good insight and a fantastic representation of the pulse of the fan base. That’s how we get our vote. Hopefully, we’ll have a chance to sound off on the likely candidates before a decision is made.

 

[UCTitleTown]

Yes. Me.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Should the Boneyard have some input into who we select as our next head coach?

Oh HELL NO!

Aside from the idea that the worst thing a sports franchise can do is let the fans pick the starting lineup, we have considerable evidence (just browse a few threads) that the collective football IQ of our posters sits somewhere between Lloyd Christmas and Forrest Gump.

Let’s see …. can’t be normal.
That narrows it down to …. Anyone on this board.

 

[Woof 101]

My secret sources say no way. The reasoning being that is how we ended up with Bob, Paul and Randy 2.0!

There is only one answer... @Chief00 . He knows Dre and his bitches...he has educated us on football scheduling...and he fixed football recruiting.

Need I say more?

Thanks. While this is a necessary coaching change, a legitimate question is how do we protect the recruiting progress made this past year? Without a permanent head coach and associated vision, it will be challenging to maintain key commitments. Playing time is our one advantage and the schedule games you referenced assumes a competent team or else potentially enjoyable games turn into what we saw last weekend.
So while I appreciate the confidence you have in me, the goal will be elusive If we do hiring by committee. Search firms are fine to utilize but an AD needs to have that short list in his top desk draw. Sure, Chief has a couple of candidates he will mention, but ultimately it’s a defining moment for Dave.

It's difficult to comprehend someone being so self absorbed that he interprets as praise what was clearly a sarcastic jab.

I just consider it a brilliant job of trolling. It has to be. I enjoy it.

News flash, he is also being sarcastic. But prefaces his remarks with a couple serious points. I am guessing that you knew that, however.

Retention in this situation is the 1500 lbm elephant in the room. A partial reason I posted on the possibility of having players reps on an search committee a few days ago..

There does not exist in the universe such a person as described in bold above. I therefore vote no.

Do you know what alias CarlSpackler is using to post these days?

Chess vs Checkers and some are stuck in grandma’s game.
