The problem is we will never recruit like Alabama. So just because we get a big name coach does not mean he or she will succeed here. We need a head coach who can work with mid-range recruits and succeed, This was one of Edsall's strong points a decade ago. I like what the coach of Coastal Carolina was able to do there.
Would love to know your source and how real that is.
If true that would be a classic. One guy fails under overly restrictive constraints. The replacement they hire gets everything he needs to be a success. If that indeed happens, Randy would have every reason to be pissed.

Good catch. Thanks
Chesney? The guys team lost to Merrimack. Do we still want him? Granted his team beat us, but are team is trash.
He can bring Todd Orlando here as DC. Would be nice!
I think Clay was paid almost 5 Million. I think our head coach and his entire staff will be less then he was paid.We need a young coach who is making 300 to 450 thousand. Give him an incentive package that includes winning games.
They say that Todd is very close to being fired. I don't think he did well at Texas and was let go but I am not sure about that
Yes I think he might be good. Northeast guy with Maine having UCONN connections. No need to pay more than RE since no one else would. Coordinators 500 plus if they are worth it. The morehead and that caliber is 2.5 plus.
Or the guy who ran a fake field goal!
I hope he wasn’t the guy who advised PP to play Johnny McEntee instead of Mike Nebrich who broke every Virginia high school football record for quarterbacks. Nebrich transferred two months later to Fordham at the insistence of the new head coach there, a guy named Joe Morehead. Morehead recruited Nebrich at UConn, so Joe knew what he had. All of a sudden Fordham was rolling over people.I’m just throwing this name out there. Shane Day was the QB Coach for P and called the plays under Weist. He’s been a highly sought after QB coach in the NFL since then. I went to college with him for a year or two.

They have to, if the BOT wants FBS football to succeed at UConn they have hire a new coach and offer him big bucks. At least double whatever they’re paying Hurley to coach the basketball team.
More than that, double whatever they’re paying Hurley to coach the basketball team.
Yeah, they're not doubling Hurley's salary for the football coach.
That was GDL. I don't want to rehash it as I'll want to punch a hole in one of my walls remembering what happened then but there were a few guys (Nebrich included) who could have helped us quite a bit but were never given the opportunity.
