Pretty interesting read from The UConn Blog: http://www.theuconnblog.com/2015/7/14/8881087/uconn-football-2015-season-preview-the-bridge-year
History Geek said:Since im an eternal optimist, i hold out how for a bowl. But the realist in me thinks this is spot on. End of 2016 is the tome to evaluate the diaco regime, not before.
End of 2016 is time to start evaluating his recruits. But if he makes same questionable decisions this year as last year, it is fair to start evaluating his regime . I am not only looking for improvement from players, I am looking for improvement from HCBD. Rooting hard for him to succeed.
I agree with ktuck. 2 wins and I think he's back but it is far from a sure thing especially if we see the same nonsense we saw last time around. Attendance is going to be dismal the program will be everybody's homecoming opponent. This program really needs a jump start not a ground up rebuild. Top coaches can do both. Fair coaches can do 1 or the other. Bad coaches can tear down but not rebuild.
This is exactly what it is. He was quoted as such.I hope this isn't really considered a ground up rebuild ... we had success at this level so I can understand why it would be that way... and I sure hope Diaco doesn't up and bail on us if we're winning 8 plus games by year 4 and he gets us rolling in year 5... I'd be pi##ed
I hear you (and him) Duncan Idaho... I just don't want us to stay as a feeder team.. In that I mean a team that has a coach that proves something by turning around a program in short period of time like ours and then bounce... We need commitment from a coach, kinda like Puke's, I mean Duke's Cutcliffe....
(with a lump in my throat) +1The problem in my eyes with the tear down and rebuild approach is that they didn't get better the whole season. In fact, the last game they may have had their most disappointing performance on the year, in a year with many to chose from.
We have no choice to go all in on the guy but it's just hope and faith at this point.
I'm just looking for him to show he's not actually a crazy person. At first it was like "oh that Bob Diaco, what a crazy guy."End of 2016 is time to start evaluating his recruits.
