Spring Practice 2019

[Palatine]

Don't get me wrong. Love that the kid has bought in. But that is possibly a record for most cliches in a minute, it's like an ABBA song. And Rome wasn't built in a day, not "overnight." Just reminds one that these are still kids.

 

[AndOne]

What will the metaphor be this year? No more closed fist. Moving on to bound feet.

 

[Scrutineer]

He's a kid and maybe the things he's seeing mean the team will be better, at least on offense. Doesn't everyone realize UConn could be about to have the biggest turnaround in one year in NCAA history?

Oh ... I think we all realize that.

Banton showing some wiggle (and causing Ganyi to miss). Nice double move by Hairston. Great pass break up by Banks.

 

[Pudge]

Sure. We all have to be miserable.

There’s nothing wrong in February with athletes giving speeches how things are going to turn around. Amen. The Mets do it every February ... so can we

For no particular reason, I have to believe Edsall has a good idea how to get us better. To succumb to this season being worse as a belief system ... please make sure the cyanide pills have efficacy.

 

[weyuo]

Edsall is right, it can't get any worse. If SMU and Marshall can resurrect their programs so can UCANN!!

Go Huskies!

You do realize that the same leader of hopefully "the biggest turnaround in one year in NCAA history" led UConn to the place where "big turnarounds" come from?

Sure. All part of the plan.

 

[Stinger92860]

Thank you for your interest in UConn.

He is not wrong.

 

[CL82]

Wow, that sounds so Diacian that I got queasy reading it.

"I've locked it away, put it a box, threw the box in the ocean..."​

I have one question are the teaching the corners to cover properly i.e. turn your head during receiver coverage? I haven’t seen it over the last 6 to 7 years

Sort of OT for this thread, but didn’t really merit its own thread...Curome Cox hired at Albany

Happy for him... Liked him as a coach...

In the video Medic posted in #64 above, Spanos says Wholley coaches the "star players" (I think?). Don't know what that means.

Is that the term for the new roving LB spot?

 

[Stainmaster]

So Wholley isn’t just coaching the “star players.” Slightly less of a clusterfunk than we thought.

 

[Scrutineer]

He sounds like a great teacher and couldn't receive a better endorsement than the comment by Byron Jones. Hope the kids listen.

 

[Nostical]

Omar Fortt epitomizes the Husky football player. He's smart, physical and eager to improve his technique. Looking for big things from him this year.

 

[RSTuthill]

So let me get this straight. We are supposed to be impressed by a reciever who, with absolutely no one on him, reaches back and make a one handed catch? Yeah sure, nice catch. But what I took away from that was the fact that there was no one on him. Let's see him do that with a safety or a corner draped all over him. Better yet, let's see a safety or a corner draped all over him.

 

[Husky68]

HCRE2.0 is doing a real good job of reducing the excessive interest in UConn football. If his job isn't on the line until 2020 will winning matter in 2019?
