He is a fine coach making his way through the ranks. I don't think he is ready for FBS football though as he's never been out of New England. His next stop is a coordinator at BC. Just a guess.
I could see Morehead coming here just to spite Edsall. If the BOT and Benedict offer him $4m a year over 5 years, I think he takes it. The hard part is the assistant pool.
I like it. One of Edsall’s big failings at UConn over the years was his inability to recruit in the FCIAC and Prep. He has had a few over the years (Mitchell, Sean Mulcahy, Trevardo Williams), but for an in state flagship university he should had a pipeline. So many others that should have given UConn a look but never did. Marinelli can change that.
Other than the fact he's very young, up and coming, probably affordable (making $440k now) , what else does he offer?
Hmmm……Tom Brady? I think he knows the northeast.
The assistant pool is what's going to get him here or not.
his OC would be cheap
He should be high on our list.... Only potential problem is, if he has a ton of success, he won't stick around... but, then again, with that success, our Admin dept would come around and work to keep him around.... along with what he needs staff wise....Penn State assistant coach named as potential candidate for UConn job opening
This would be a huge loss for Penn State.saturdaytradition.com
JaJuan Seider is a nationally elite recruiter. Not sure about his coaching chops or what type of staff he could assemble.
Let’s see success first and then worry about the problems it brings.
Normally I'd be against what we're doing with Tyler. But if you can get some experience make good decisions and learn how to slide when necessary we have absolutely nothing to lose and he has everything to gain.
So weird that people are obsessed with lashlee. His offense isnt that unique anymore (Mazzone offense is basically the same)...he has never been a head coach...and he hated it at UConn.
