View from Charlottesville,new HC making a difference

[oldanintheway]

I was up at the UVA game, next year UCONN comes down to UVA. They may well see a different team. New HC Bronco Mendenhall is making a difference. They may well end up 2-10, but the O is getting it and are scoring points and playing close. Lost to Louisville in last minute, and last week after a close loss at Wake, the players apologized to him...., and recruiting, we'll see, but an example, a Fla. RB with offers from FSU, UF, Louisville, and Nebraska just committed. Would HCBD even offer a RB with offers from those schools? Yes, UVA fans also complain about kids who can't get in here, but UNC(of course), and others(FSU,etc.) take them. Oh, and season tickets are on an upswing for 2017.

Must be nice.

Hopefully, by January we are on the upswing after the firing.

As far as the Jamari Peacock commit goes its a nice pickup but he's put on a ton of weight and was a fourth or fifth option for Nebraska and hadn't been recruited by those other schools in a while. Just to temper your expectations.

He has and continues to... the problem is not in the offering, the challenge is in getting them to say yes.

Bronco Mendenhall already knows how to be a Head Coach because he's been one for a while... Would be nice to see that on our end.

If UConn could have gotten a Bronco Mendenhall (established, conference-winning head coach with a perennial top 25 program) in 2014, I'm certain we would have...
