he wanted to retire, football was stressing him out, decided he was done. that's it. - TFox Jul 22, 10:42 15
- the rest of the coaching staff had been there for a long time, right? -- nm - prayformojo Jul 22, 10:43 3
  - yeah, they have a solid team there. there's a part of me that wonders what the new coach can do. - TFox Jul 22, 10:45 2
    - UConn's new stadium is nice. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 22, 10:45 1
      - Pretty sweet deal through the alumni association, I think: $70 for game ticket, and catered tailgate with drinks included. -- nm - TFox Jul 22, 10:46
- I was hoping for a scandal. Ah well. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 22, 10:42 10
  - there's a good one-pager in the newest SI on him. wonders why more coaches don't follow his lead. -- nm - TFox Jul 22, 10:44 9
    - Everything I've heard about him makes me think he's a solid guy in one of the Top 5 most difficult places to coach in the country. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 22, 10:45 8
      - I dunno...he went 27 & 60 in 5 years and was thought a great man. - Will Hunting Jul 22, 10:47 6
        
        first bowl win since the advent of Diet Coke. -- nm - TFox Jul 22, 10:48 5
        
        Yeah...I mean, don't get me wrong, he's likely a very good coach, but going 27 & 60 with a single bowl win shouldn't get you statues. - Will Hunting Jul 22, 10:49 4
        
        I'd put it in the Top 5 toughest jobs in CFB -- nm - Strongbad Jul 22, 10:52 2
        
        There's no expectations...it can't be tough when winning 4-5 games a season gets you extensions. - Will Hunting Jul 22, 10:57 1
        
        Different definitions of the word, I see where you're coming from. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 22, 10:58
        
        Toughest place to win list, for sure. But toughest job given the expectations, probably not. -- nm - TFox Jul 22, 10:50
      - If you end up looking for a new HC after this season, you should give Jim Grobe a call. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 22, 10:46
