I understand you (and many other UConn fans) don’t think there’s a difference. Primarily because of the disdain that UConn fans had for being in that league. I’m letting you know from talking to players- that’s not true.

Neither am I, I think he’s a really good RBs coach but that pretty much all the experience he has.
Actually I thought later that I misspoke. You are correct.
I’m not sold on Polasek either
Wow really?! They both have contracts through ‘22 even with a new HC starting? If true, that’s going to be another huge obstacle for filling this job. What HC is going to want to walk into a program where he can’t bring his own guys and build a staff?
Seider's extremely interesting... He's coming from PA strong Penn State... PA teams fire off the football... plus he's a former QB... coaches RB's now... interesting....
They have contracts through 2022 regardless if there was a coaching change or not. They’ll just buy-out both if need be (like they did w/ Diaco staff).
Again...what about next year's class? I know what you heard from players...but on paper it looks like a very good class.
Little history lesson needed here: That Broyles award DC was a fruit loop that no one else wanted and wasn't even our first choice. Check out the comments on his BC interview.
Totally agree!
Gee, why don't you just start a Go Fund Me page or whatever they are called. You can call it the UCONN Assistant Coach Pool.
Agree Moorhead would be hard to get. But also agree with the others that you have to make the call and gauge interest. $2M a year over 5 years is a good offer that he’d at least have to think about.
We are rated last in the country. By definition, the next coach is basically assured of being given credit for a turnaround.
I call an improvement of 25 places as the bar to be considered a turnaround.
Give him a base plus 50% of gate.
Thanks for your interest in UConn football. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Moorhead is not coming here. I do not believe we will win a game this year.
UMass is terrible and there's Yale. Those are games they could win. But this team is bad and may go winless. But let's not talk ourselves into Spanos—as people already had been!—if they somehow pull out 2 or somehow 3.
UMass put up 28 vs BC. They can score against a P5 team.
I don't think the team needs a rebuild. The talent is there. Our receivers get open, linebackers are getting behind the line and coverage has been decent. We just need coordinators that know how to utilize the talent. Moorhead's offense scored three times on almost the exact same play against OSU. So like I said we need coordinators that have situational awareness and are able to exploit weakness instead of driving a square peg in a round hole.
There's a reason I said could. It is, in theory, possible. Likely? Different question.
Yeah...the results suggest the opposite. Coordinators lose games, but they don't get you blown out.
The good thing is that since you and I do not play for UConn, that won't matter.
Although I work there and they are my 2nd favorite, did they use the portal? I am too lazy to look.
