Where is Mazzonne?

[Fairfield_1st]

That seems to be entirely due to the absence of Mazzone and his brand of offense. If he left on his own that's one thing, but if we let him go, what a huge blunder.

Since Mazzone can't actually coach on game day, I'm blaming the UMass offensive debacle on Giuffre being away and QB coach Moysenko trying to be the substitute OC. That can't be an easy thing to prepare for in 2 days.
It's anyone's guess what happened Saturday.

It was stone-cold brutal to watch that game at UMass. I have no coaching experience beyond Madden and I think I could have called a better game.

Mazzone's original contract was for one week...to be revisited. I find no mention of how this "revisiting" worked out...to remain through season I would think.

CT Insider Sept. 15

Mazzone is under contract for one week, with a $2,500 stipend. His deal expires Sept. 21, at which point UConn can revisit his status. If Mazzone were made a “countable” member of the coaching staff, perhaps offensive coordinator, UConn would have to remove a coach from the staff.

And then...on September 27...all coaches receive notice that they are not being retained. So I assume no coaching changes will be made.

As folks have posted, Mazzone's game day activities, as an analyst, are limited.

Could he have Covid issues? Didn't see that mentioned, maybe missed it.

Yup. We knew this, but word had it a few weeks back that he was still an OA. He was on the sidelines at Wyoming, but missing from every shot I scrutinized at Vandy. Same with UMass.

He may be working with the hoops team now

When he was on the sidelines I only saw him talking to coaches. I didn't see him talking to players. I think that was their way around it.

If he is, looks like we can expect something similar to Paul Westhead's Loyola Marymount teams. Run & gun!

It’s surprising there isn’t a simple straight forward piece of info on this. It’s so symptomatic of the CYA cluster in effect.

Well....there also is weak media coverage of the team.

Kind of basic question you would think.

Still no word on what the story with Mazzone is?

Crickets. I went so far as to FB message him politely and ask him.

 

[HuskyAlum012]

Does anyone know which weeks Mazzone was actually with us? I was trying to find the tweet where either Anthony or Amore confirmed he was still with us but cant find it... I think it was for Army, Wyoming and Vandy games?

Think it was Army and Wyoming. I couldn't fi d him on the sidelines replaying the Vanda game twice

He was in Europe.

This is kinda becoming a “where Waldo” discussion

He was in Germany Coaching the European League Football All Star game the last bit of September and first of October. His one week contract appears to have been just that if essentially one week after he was hired he left for a few weeks to Europe.

Where in the world is... Noel Mazzone?
