Seems that Purdue has played teams with unique situations and it has not ended with for our team.
PSU - player Adam Taliaferro comes to mind.

He’s not going to be anywhere close to Rentschler Field on Saturday. He’s not an employee of UCONN anymore. This situation is nothing like PSU and Taliaferro.

Think: Similar to when D-Haze was canned and our interim coach went 0-6. And UCONN has worse (much worse) players than what D-Haze left our interim coach.

Minnesota’s DC getting fired a few days before we played them in 2018 🙄. Gary godsey. Rocky Lombardi.

I think we are safe here. I really feel like brohm has learned his lesson and that he’s gonna come out Like he’s playing a strong team and hopefully have George, David, Payne, cory, cam et al watching by the second quarter

Oh so it’s a retirement at the end of this season but he’s already gone? Im just curious im not saying UConn has a chance

Things changed. He originally said he would “retire” at the end of the season (on his terms). UCONN alumni/fanbase would not accept this and told the AD they would stop giving to the AD if Edsall wasn’t canned immediately. AD and Edsall had a meeting this afternoon and mutually agreed Edsall would step down immediately.

Their fans on their board were saying before he was made to leave that no one on the staff was good enough to take over.. besides your clear expertise of new haven pizza do you have any insights living there? As far as just how bad the new coach will likely be

They are right. None of the people on the staff have been FBS HCs before as far as I can tell. Lou Spanos has a fair amount of NFL experience (Steelers, WFT). He was a DC at UCLA for one season and was a “consultant” at Alabama under Saban for one season before becoming DC at UCONN. Under Spanos, UCONN gave up 625 ypg I believe in 2019. Their recruiting has been putrid and it shows on the field.

might want to add where Wash Huskies carted out their injured player on a wheel chair up in the pressbox before the Rose Bowl started and iu's coach passing away we played them.

Both ND Gary Godsey and MI St Rocky Lombardi were gaffes for Purdue and will allow them to laugh and tell stories to their friends and families for years to come.
 
Is Edsall really the kind of coach whose resignation would light a fire under a team?

The same Edsall who was such an ass that he'd publicly yell at players for transferring yet bolted for Maryland the first chance he got.
