How much more tone deaf can you be? "Never gonna change..." That should tell us all we need to know.

 

[shizzle787]

I had so much confidence going into the season, and his ability not to able to smell his own farts has creeped not only into his pressers but his playcalling.

 

[sub legacy]

Call me when this athletic department grows a spine and hires an offensive coach with testicles and both sides of their brain.

As you see it has us at 2-3 when we should be 4-1.

 

[Walker11]

No reason to change. I think Bob will kill it as a D coordinator for a top ranked P5 team next year.

 

[Adios]

I am sure he is thinking of some of us when he said he is not going to change. What a dimwit.

Bob, smart people learn and adapt. Welcome to being a failure. Oh, the love of money... Wait, he did adapt!

He can go back to ND and tout Jesus in the huddle there.

The way Diaco "sees football" is outdated and boring, and will continue to kill this program, fan interest, and -- through the machinations of conference realignment -- the entire athletic department.

The fans have seen through the used car salesman talk and cheerleading. His youthfulness belies his approach to the game, in an era where explosive offenses are essential for on-field success and off-field reputation.

If Benedict wants to be a hero and put his mark on this program, now is the time.

Bob Diaco on the Huskies Performance & What Needs to Improve – This is UConn Country

In non-140 character chunks:

>>... we just need to keep coaching and do a better job of coaching and teaching the guys because they show up to work and learn. We need to find a way to reach them as it relates to this persistent explosive plays in the passing game and continue to find ways to reach them on offense...<<

>>Losing a game by 28 points is different from the first two losses of the year, both one possession games. Will that have an impact?

"It's not about the style of losing," Diaco said. "I'd say losing hurts. It makes you question are you doing the right thing? It makes you think about all the little things and the monster under your bed that's hiding there and the boogeyman in the closet grows. Our culture is super strong and our family is super strong. I don't anticipate the guys not coming back resolute and excited for phase two, for Cincinnati week, but to say that losing and collecting a few of them here isn't incredibly painful is just not fair. Is there a crack? No. This team isn't cracked. The coaches aren't cracked. The cultures not cracked. I'm not, me personally, I'm never going to change, other than to try to get better. I'm not going to stop loving the players with all my heart and all my soul and I'm not going to ever stop teaching them football as I see it."<<

Maybe he should start giving the players a pre game kiss that seemed to work for Herman

 

[BlueDogs]

His redeeming value is he does truly love the kids. That is real and puts him above PP. But, he is not equipped or capable of creating the program the university needs. Let's not waste more time.

Theme song "Sandman".

 

[Bonehead]

Not going to stop teaching football the way I see it..

Great!!

How many times last night did they show Herman doing bed check...and kissing his players? It just seemed creepy to me....and calculated.

Whatever Herman is doing is working. Whatever Diaco is doing is not. That's all we need to know.

If he was kissing them during the bed check....now that would be creepy!

 

[Waquoit]

Phase two? That's anger, isn't it?

 

[jho]

I've never seen someone overuse the word "resolute" quite like HCBD.

 

[Palatine]

Whatever Herman is doing is working. Whatever Diaco is doing is not. That's all we need to know.

Herman undressed the Husky defense. He went right to the perimeter and didn't waste any time trying to establish the run up the middle. He figured out UConn weakness, went right after it, exposed it and keep the pedal to the floor, he never eased up.

His defense attacked Uconn's offense. Attacked it.

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

Whatever Herman is doing is working. Whatever Diaco is doing is not. That's all we need to know.

True...but the fact that he is successful doesn't change the fact that it is creepy.

As an aside...I know there was a lot of talk about trying to get Herman when UConn got Diaco. While in hindsight, it seems pretty obvious Herman is the better choice (good call Serrano)...I wouldn't be surprised if he wouldn't have considered UConn. He really could have gone to any G5 school...and a good chunk of P5 schools. I think he went to Houston because Ward Jr was there....and they have a great recruiting base with the athletes to make his scheme successful. UConn did not have the QB or the recruiting base. I really don't think he would have considered UConn as an option.

We will probably never know...but just wanted to throw it out there for those who regret not trying to lure him to UConn. Unfortunately, UConn is appealing to coaches who are defense first and offense averse
