    CBS Analyst: Diaco, New Staff Have A Better Handle On Recruiting

    Blades let's hope that Diaco's gang has a better handle on a lot more than PP did. Is it too early to let a little optimism creep in? btw, How the hell does PP end up with another job? Am I missing something really obvious?

    New Commit ? DL from Windsor is now listed

    As a follow up to the point made by our wayward BC friend. Since this year's UConn recruiting class should easily lap that of the 2013 BC class of only 15 recruits and yet the Eagles made their first bowl game in years this past season (they lost by 23 in the Advocare V100 Independence Bowl)...

    New Commit ? DL from Windsor is now listed

    Nice photo Blades. What's your guess on the ultimate size of this recruiting class? Isn't this a light year for scholarship availability anyway?

    3 more Uconn commits......

    Blades, give us some texture to this recruiting class. On paper it doesn't look too strong.

    recruiting front page error

    Lewconn I haven't gotten that error but I was wondering if anyone knew how many scholarships we have for this recruiting class? Our number is noticeably lower than the competition but that might because of the numbers that we have to give.

    On Coach Diaco, from an ND fan and alum

    It's nice to feel a positive vibe coming from all sources with respect to our coaching staff. Is there any word on how Coach Weist has taken the news and whether his role is changing at all?

    New head coach tweetes.......

    I don't know boys, I loved the offensive play selection and the matching the schemes with the skills that the team has to work with. I think I give Weist a 2 year deal to see if he can build on this momentum. I know memphis isn't much but that is beside the point - the creativity is finally...

    TJ Weist's first practice

    Blades what's your early take? It feels like there is truly a new sheriff in town with everything from offensive philosophy to management style. We're all just happy that we didn't have to go 1-11 before the WM made the move.

    UConn's top booster on Pasqualoni firing: I told you so

    Burton was dead set against Pasquoloni and he was absolutely right. Your conjecture about the rest of it is appreciated but it is just that, conjecture.

    UConn's top booster on Pasqualoni firing: I told you so

    Burton was right then and I applaud him for not just being an empty windbag but being willing to open his wallet if need be.

    Go after Lane Kiffin

    One other thing: Let us not quickly forget how bad a hire PP was. He has taken a core of some pretty decent athletes and turned it into one of the worst programs in the country. The AD's office has a little pressure to not whiff again...

    Go after Lane Kiffin

    Can't we do better than taking a USC flunkie with no real winning track record? There a re a lot of successful Off. Coordinators out there who have put up big numbers who would love a shot at the top job. Let's use some imagination and forget the Ct thing - think outside the box and do a...

    UConn will come out throwing vs. UB

    Blades I hope they have figured out how to protect CW or move the pocket or it could be another tough day. I hope we see more of Delorenzo....

    UConn's Offence

    Gentlemen, we're not going to see anybody but CW this week unless throws up about 3 or 4 pure ducks. I would think that the coaching staff is hoping to win and win big. In light of of Maryland's decimation of West Va. they're probably thinking that a few wins could put lipstick on this pig and...

    UConn's Offence

    OK Blades, we're here now. We're 0-3 and MUST beat Buffalo. What do we know about them? They're 0-2 against FBS schools and the line is UConn -2. I think the weather is supposed to be good which we need since we can't run the ball. What weapons do they have that anyone knows of? Also, did...
