UConn/ECU game thread

[gtcam]

Cubs fans have become worse than Nationals fans. They believe they're entitled to win just by showing up.

Doesn't work that way. I hope the Cubs continue to lose in the most painful ways possible.

And I hope Maddon gets plantar fasciitis.

This is a stupid statement:
Cubs fans have become worse than Nationals fans. They believe they're entitled to win just by showing up.
Entitled? Do you know what that means?
Only could be a Mets or Yankees fan - if a Pirates fan, I'm sorry

More enjoyable. Uconn football or a trip to DMV?

Yes, I noted all of the empty seats. Despite all of our teeth bashing about our crowds, we are not the only ones with issues.
I couldnt tell. Was the student section empty by the start of third quarter like ours was last game.
I had to get away from our game. Lots of empty seats at Purdue/Penn State as well.

Joe D said that East Carolina announced that the paid attendance was 43K plus!!!!

You're sorry then.

You're sorry then.

Have a good day

upper deck @ UVA-Louisville game basically empty and they're playing the #5 team

Basically the SEC, Mich, Neb, OSU, Wisky, Clemson, FSU, Texas, OU, ND are the only teams who have > 90% attendance, maybe Va Tech

 

[freescooter]

So it is official. Diaco has crossed the Pasqualoni tangent. He is way worse.

 

[JSM1970]

Great to see WVU get hammered by OSU and the Dude and MH v and other toothless hillbillies crying in their sisters' AKA girlfriend's arms

 

[Husky25]

Well all of you denizens, are you now regretting the move to D-1

Nope. Not in the least.

My bad. I forgot Halloween is coming. I didn't realize all of those fans came disguised as empty seats.

Diaco on QB situation: I'm not going to burn Donovan Williams' redshirt... I know what I have in the bullpen.

So in other words....

These colleges are hiding some secret tech--invisible fan formula.

..."wait till next year guys!"

Nope. Not in the least.

These people are mentally deficient. We pump out more talent to the NFL than 75% of FBS and under Edsall cracked the Top 25 almost every season reaching #11 (13?) and the stands were 95-100% full. We need to find a real coach, we've proven to ourselves that success is possible at this level we're just not making wise decisions on who's at the helm the last 2 go-arounds.

 

[pnow15]

Diaco 's plan is to lose the rest of his games so that he will get the No.1 pick in the draft.

 

[TheDoggPound]

..."wait till next year guys!"

That's his built-in cop out. Hey Shirreffs isn't a QB I need at least 1 season with my recruited players.. Then after 2-10 season next year, "We need another season to build up competition at the position (McAfee) for us to get where we need to be."

 

[huskymedic]

..."wait till next year guys!"

I read it as DW is not ready for prime time and "what you see is what you get".

 

[TheDoggPound]

I tweeted that Diaco's job is going to be in the hands of DWilliams next season (if he's still coach) and Jordan McAfee's mom liked the tweet. I think everyone know Shirreffs is not the answer and I bet Diaco is telling DB and others behind the scenes to give him 1-2 years with Williams and McAfee at his disposal.

 

[TheDoggPound]

If he is here next season though I think Diaco knows that some heads have to roll which basically means Verducci

 

[Redding Husky]

Do Cubs fans really believe this series is over? My wife's a Cubs fan and she acts like that too. They're down 2-1 for goodness sake. They were down 2-1 to the Dodgers too and came roaring back. They only lost 1-0 last night but looked inept. Kluber is pitching with only three days rest. I think it's far from over

This is my 50th year of being a Cub fan. I've seen it all. We always hope for the best, but we're certain of the final outcome before the first pitch is thrown.

Being a Cub fan has prepared me well for being a UConn football fan. It was an easy transition.

Why does the WR Bubble Screen....which every team we play runs against us at least 5 times per game....still work? Is it still a suprise? Is watching game tape against Husky policy?

Same lament here. Way to keep the most painful game thread ever alive.
