UConn to Big XII Imminent?

Bongo Fury said:
Edsall is still the best coach UConn has had. I hope that changes. Just saying no need to overpay a coach without results. If someone does outstanding then UConn will do whatever it can to keep them. Ollie won a natty and was highly desired. UConn is challenging. Better players would help which also comes from investment these days. Also don’t think “Dave” was fond of Randy.

Wow. That is something not to be proud about. The guy literally quit on the team.

(UConn) Edsall + Orlovski > (Maryland) Edsall - Orlovski.

Can we get Edsall to coach Maryland today?

Well this certainly isn't going to help. I expect nothing from UConn football and yet I still didn't expect this in year three of Mora. It looks like he's never coached a football game before and it looks like these kids are learning a new sport.

It's more the talent gap then anything. We are slower and weaker

The bar is "don't be embarrassing" and in these critical last two years they cannot even approach the bar.

It's both but the coaching is abominable. No discipline with the players, horrible defensive schemes, horrible play calling, then there is the tackling. Why can't these kids tackle year after year? That's not a talent thing. We were told we upgraded a great deal talentwise through the portal.

We upgraded, just not to FBS level yet...

I'm pretty sure any QB can beat us just by scrambling on every play, sliding feet first just before contact, and racking up 300 yards in personal foul penalties. Not to mention we'd lose 15 defensive players to targeting disqualifications.

The tackling was terrible. That's coaching technique. I don't know if Mora is the guy for UConn. I should know, KU was like this for years.
 
Great statement by the Husky gridiron warriors today to look attractive to the BIG 12. Just another completely embarrassing performance. SMH.
 
We know with realignment that rivalries will be torn apart.

But I wasn't prepared to see Penn State without games against Michigan, Michigan State and Rutgers in the same season.

Holy cow, Michigan is the big game annually, Michigan St. ends the season as PSU's trophy game, and RU is the young dumb brother a few feet away.

Looks like a bunch of NIL mercenaries.

It says something when you are the only school in your conference without a guaranteed rivalry game. It all goes back to those Big East Catholic schools.

We don't have a guaranteed rivalry in the BE either. Let's face it.

If the Big East grew to where the B1G is now, Syracuse would be pitted against Georgetown, Seton Hall vs. St. John's, and we'd get PC.

Also, it may be that PSU and USC chose one another for rivalries. We'll see in the future. PSU and USC did 4 different home and homes (8 games) over a span of 20+ years (1990-2015) until the B1G started ballooning in size.

It is almost like UConn doesn't fit with a bunch of non-football playing Catholic universities.
