The Magic Play

Also it's worth pointing out the staff did have a game plan to try some different things - Anderson at QB, some wildcat with Thomas and they tried to implement them. The fact that neither of those were particularly successful is indicative of the advantage Temple had on the lines. It seems some refuse to see what's right in front of their eyes. Maybe we should be calling for the OC to install the A-11 offense.

Shouldn't you be calling for Diaco's head?

Please enlighten me, is Diaco and Verducci the same guy?

More to the point, it was Diaco's opinion. I just happen to agree with it. Sorry you weren't entertained but I'll take his judgement over yours.

That's like saying you will get on the Challenger even after you know it's going to blow up.

Obviously what Diaco did didn't work. And I'm not even saying that different game plan would have worked. I just hate the turtle.

Disco isn't responsible?

Please don't become UConn's talent evaluator if you're ever approached. Other than #8, you are out of your mind.

You can't be taken remotely seriously anymore.

Exactly. If I thought we were more talented except at 1 LB spot, and watched us get destroyed like we did, I'd be pissed if Warde let the head coach address the team in the locker room.

Got it. I'd love to see soome exciting offense myself, hopefully it's coming when get a line that can block more than straight ahead and the skill players to execute. Sometimes you take what you believe is your best chance, and the other team still wins. Remarkable since we apparantly took the field with a MUCH better roster, I guess it was just Temple's day.

No, you are missing the point. The critics don't care that we didn't do something new -- they just want the something new to work every time.
