UConn vs Navy game thread

[HuskiesFan1014]

Disgusting.

 

[sub legacy]

I mean, why wouldn't I expect anything less than a loss reminiscent of Russell Wilson throwing on the 1-yard line...

 

[Jax Husky]

Uhh, yes it is. With 17 seconds left, you know there's a good possibility that a running play is going to run out the clock.

Everyone in tba stadium knows the Defense is instructed to lay on the ball carrier. There was zero chance of getting another play off, and even worse we werent ready to anyway. Shameful coaching. He should apologize to his players. They fought hard.

 

[TitleTown]

3 passes or 1 run. What would Diaco do? Feel awful for the players Carrezola, Walsh, Shireffs were all phenomenal today.

Or 2 passes and 1 run with 2 seconds on the clock, not with 15 seconds and on 1st down with 0 tos after you just wasted 1 for no apparent reason.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

If we pull the guys off RonJohn it's flags on us for sure

 

[UConnTrumbull]

The offense wasnt going to get the play off.

I know it's hindsight but 5 yards to save that timeout is a good deal.

 

[huskysupporter]

The offense wasnt going to get the play off.

Yep, he absolutely needed to call to there. There were 2 seconds on play clock. Why they couldn't get a play off is beyond me, but they needed to call that timeout

 

[Dibbie]

Get the first, spike the ball, 2 plays, 15 seconds and a TO...what a ##%^

 

[Excalibur]

The offense wasnt going to get the play off.

Yes they were. Shirreffs was under center, ready to take the snap.

 

[kris1]

Can't wait to hear Diaco’s explanation of this debacle. I have bought into his b.s.. He holds the players accountable. He needs to look in the mirror. He has no idea what he's doing. I'm officially off the BD bandwagon.

 

[CardiffGiant]

What gets lost in this is how courageous those kids played. Just criminal.

 

[Jimdish255]

Coaching malpractice - yep

Chief you nailed it. Pure malpractice and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Imagine our President and AD watching this snow go down. A Fifth-Grade Fantasy FB player could have done better. This guy defines the word AMATEUR.

It's a disgrace what he does to the psyche of our team.
"I love you, you're the best now watch me steal any hope from your soul."

 

[MilliniumPrince]

How does he look hs team in the eye ever again?

What the hell can he say to explain this balless idiotic attempt at being a head coach?

Why wouldn't you run the ball then call a timeout? If you suffer and brain freeze and call the dumbmest timeout since Chris Webber....why the hell would you run the ball after that? In what universe is your team going to get lined up in time? Like Navy would rush to let the ball carrier get up.

He is a fraud. He is PP with a pretty face. This is Benjamin Buttons in real life. We fired PP and hired a his younger self. I have never been this angry over a Uconn loss.

You get to keep your sanity.

 

[Huskygamble19]

Diaco just doesn't understand time management. I don't think he is smart enough to grasp it.

I just have no words for this. this is just the worst management of a 1 yard run for td that i have ever seen. there is no rah rah for Diaco. he has proved that he is not a good head coach and i don't think he will ever learn. this was a victory pulled away from a deserving team by an inept head coach.

 

[itgoeslike]

Diaco would have owned this victory. Now, he should own this loss. 2nd down and goal, 15 seconds left, no time outs and we run? I feel bad for the kids that stepped up and came back in incredible fashion. Just threw it away. Unbelievable.

 

[guyergym]

I mean, fade, then fade, then run if both are imcomplete. W.T.F. seriously. What a horrible coaching job.

You don't even have to run fades. Roll Shirrefs out. If there's an opening, he runs it in. If there's a receiver, open he passes. If neither, he throws it out of the end zone and you have another play.

 

[ninety-nine]

this is just how life is.

 

[weyuo]

The encouraging thing is they should/could of won this which was not the case the last few years. So now everyone including the coaches need to learn from this. The defensive backfield needs to tighten it up. The coaches need to trust Sherriff's arm more and get a few more people involved in the passing game. Clock management, awful!! The defense proved that they can get physical and adjust. Now the offense needs to prove they can score.

Tough loss and that one is on the coaches more than anyone. Go Huskies!! Beat The Cavs!!

 

[amory]

I have never been this angry over a Uconn loss.

Ditto. I didn't think it was possible to be this pissed with how "meh" uconn football generally is.

I am livid.

Virginia, not Virginia Tech.

This was even WORSE than Tom Coughlin's inept clock management last year with the Giants!

Facepalm

 

[UC313]

Diaco's made Andy Ried look like a friggin genius when it comes to clock management. Not top ten here we come.

 

[SubbaBub]

OK, I'm no longer throwing things. You can half-heartedly defend the run as a make or miss call. You can't defend blowing two TO's in the last minute.

 

[Redding Husky]

Fact: fans are better than coaches at clock management and play calling with under two minutes to go.

 

[BugsyCT]

That's why Seattle ran the ball.

Nice game, Bob. Love & Peace. Serenity now.

 

[TitleTown]

Ditto. I didn't think it was possible to be this pissed with how "meh" uconn football generally is.

I just feel really bad for the kids! They busted their asses to get back in the game time and time again and Diaco pissed it all away with 2 inexcusable calls at the end of the game!

Really? Just give it a rest. This guy shows every indication of being determined to grasp defeat away from his players. They gave him every opportunity to believe in them and he bailed out as a Coach and as someone who believes in them. This was disgraceful on the most basic level.

 

[weyuo]

Facepalm

Eh,, heat of the moment. Be a bitch and call me on it.

 

[Chief00]

You throw the ball
