If you think UConn football was bad last season...

... Connecticut's flagship paper says it can get worse.

Could UConn football be worse than last year? Here are 5 storylines to watch as the Huskies open spring practice - Hartford Courant

Reminds me of coming into some of our bad seasons.

It would please me to see them garner another one or two win season. Their fans are insufferable.

As Syracuse fans all know, it is really hard to turn around a program that has hit rock bottom. The new transfer rules make a bad situation even worse.

Ugly.

its nice NOT being on that end (for now)

 

[HOFCeluck]

Were we ever THAT bad? I feel like at least our schedule was tougher in 2005.

Instead of replacing Gerg he turned into him

I wish we had more home and homes with them. Can't get enough of blowing them out. I can't decide who I dislike more, their fans or their coach

This is an underrated post.

Absolutely

Our 2005 schedule was pretty tough. FSU and ND as non conference opponents and then WVU and Louisville had good seasons.

No need to worry if you're a Huskie fan - Mr. Burton used to play football!

He knows exactly what it takes to establish a great college football program!

In my opinion, it's worse than anything we experienced.

OC Frank Giufre is former Orange OL if I recall correctly

Starting to remind me of hoops. :-(

What’s worse is having multiple coaches even ‘transferring’ out. Yikes.

We had a name/history, and we had a conference.

UConn doesn’t have anything. Their *best* season was an unranked 8-4 campaign, where they backed into a Fiesta Bowl invite via a 3-way tie for BIG EAST champ (out of 8 schools), only to get annihilated by OU.
Their stadium is also 20 years old, making it way too new to replace (esp. w/ their/CT’s finances), and it’s way too old to impress anyone. They’re toast.

They should do the right thing and just drop back down to 1AA. Chalk it up to a failed experiment.

Truly. It's the right thing to do. Traveling to OK to play Tulsa and TX for Houston and SMU. Blah. A farrago of unconnected teams looking for a little TV money. Athletic hubris and excess at its inconsequential worst. Let it go. Downgrade to a good fit or continue to hemorrhage $$.

CBA kid? don’t think he saw the field

Bonus points for using the word "farrago".

Nope. Want their basketball program to rot in the AAC. They drop football and they can go to the Big East. Don't want that at all.

Yes.

I believe this is the strongest case of karma on record since records were first kept. Back in 3000 BC.

Yes, not sure how much he played but enough to earn 2 letters I think
