Randy is a buffoon. Just keep you mouth shut. He’s like a teenager having to get some last word in or make sure he’s heard. This is the behavior of a grown man who supposedly leads young men.

Keep you mouth shut, own your role in the mess and get better personally and as a team.

What a horses ass.

I want to give him the benefit of the doubt and say they're generic quotes, but i agree with you. He needs to just say nothing unless he is going to formally address this. Otherwise STFU with these cryptic tweets.

I think 247 just lists the position from their HS recruiting profile when players go into the portal.
Yup 247 doesn't update profiles other than interest levels and where the player commits to. Size and position that they generate initially stays the same.

They updated with his QB stats for 2016/2017.
 
I’m sure Diaco will help him land at Purdue... right?
Considering he said that Donovan was as good as anyone at his position...and that position was quarterback.

I am starting to think that Diaco wasn't a good evaluator of talent.

Data does not apply here. Personal and direct interaction does and I have and have had plenty of it.
Fair enough, then you should be able to supply a reason why. One that is plausible that is.

Unless of course that you've heard they won't be coaching next year. Then I guess you would have a point.

They’ll be coaching here next year. I guarantee you that. David Benedict himself told me to my face and has told the media the same many times over. Anyone who’s wishing Randy out the door is going to be sad.

So I guess we are agreed. In your previous post your point wasn't valid since we are talking the about Coyle situation and the actions by people who will be with the program going forward, namely the coaching.

And of course I have posted many times here that Edsall should be given his full five years and maybe even a sixth. So we are in agreement all round, I'd say.
 
Pssst....it wasn't Coyle's decision. He was shown the door by RE. Only a small handful (2-3) actually chose on their own to go.
Coyle is the one big surprise to me given his "performance projection for 2020".

If anyone was actively pushing out Tyler Coyle they should be run out of town. Connecticut guy who kept getting better every year with a hurricane swirling around that entire defense with so many changes.

He graduated and wanted to play elsewhere do you blame him I sure don’t.
I don’t think he has graduated yet. Remember, he is midway through his 4th year at UConn. If he already graduated, he would be a more attractive transfer as you could get him on campus for Spring football and there would have been more action on his transfer options already.

It really makes no sense and there has not been any sort of explanation but it happened and we can only hope someone steps in next year to fill that void.

I don't understand this discussion. From what I know, would I want Tyler Coyle back? Absolutely. Is it hard to posit reasons why Coyle might have wanted to leave (not saying he did -- just can we think of reasons)? Of course not. Is it hard to posit reasons why Edsall might have wanted him to leave? Again, without knowing it's true, of course it's not.

So all we do know is that, unless you've decided not just that Edsall should be fired (totally rational) but that everything that ever goes wrong must be because he's an idiot (not totally rational), there is no reason to doubt that if Edsall did push Coyle out the door he must have had a reason that made sense to him, and it's highly unlikely it had to do with on field utility. All those who keep complaining they need to know more are doing are begging someone without information to say something bad about Coyle or his attitude. So I would ask those people to please stop it before their words cause that response.

Good post BL. This is an argument about opinions, not about facts, or even partially factual information. Devoid of those facts, it evolves into name calling and further speculation about possible facts, which only leads to the trashing of one or both parties...with no ultimate resolution. Some info will come out at some point. Seems like that will be a better time for opinions.
 
The reason? RE is in charge. That is the reason. He makes the decisions whether we like it or not.
Yeah, and that is a BS reason. If "because I am in charge and I don't want you here" is the reason, well then that is just total BS. NOT a valid reason at all.

You don't know anything. You are just like the other blowhards on this forum who claim to get things from the horse's mouth and when pushed offer up BS like that. A total dodge.

He didn't give you a specific reason other than RE said so. That hardly makes 31 Guard Trap a blowhard. I am sorry for your frustration. I have spoken to those I needed to speak to at UConn to get out in front of this and let the few remaining fans get some insight. It is not up to those who do get info to share it on a football forum. This forum is not the place for news, that is what reporters with credentials are for.

He is being challenged because he came on as a know it all with inside information. Don't lecture me, lecture him instead. If you are not prepared to back up your controversial assertion, don't make it in the first place. It's just that simple.
 
Unfortunately it appears Messiah Turner is leaving UConn due to academics.

This puts us at 76 scholarship players on the roster which means the best we can get to is 81 for the coming season after we take our remaining 5 due to the 25 man annual cap.

At the safety position its a little unclear what our depth might be. It seems Diamond Harrell has the Strong Safety locked up with O'Neil Robinson as the 1st guy off the bench while the Free Safety spot might be manned by Rob King with some combination of Malik Dixon (RS Freshman, did not play at all last year), perhaps Jalon Ferrell (third year player that has yet to get consistent snaps), or one of the new true freshman like Alfred Chea or Reyan Blake. Others that might be in play include Malik Banks or pwo Jaylen Jones.

The safety position is going to be the position that I am most concern with going into next year on the defensive side of the ball.

Honestly the line of defense at the 2nd level might still be our biggest concern. We need our LBs to ball out moving fwd. We've relied on the back of our D way too much.
