He actually had a pretty good defense at UConn last year. This year it dropped off some but the HC was on the hot seat. Not a bad addition with Zach as DC at all.

The HC was definitely not on the hot seat. It was Jim Mora and he took the Colorado State job. In fact,last year they went 9-4(beat UNC in the Fenway Bowl), and 9-3 this year. Two of the better years in UConn history.

4 DCs on staff between Arnett, Brock, Rhodes, McIntyre

And not one of them can make a tackle or shed a block. This portal is potentially the most crucial one for the program.

Yep- Lebby has gotten his defense surrounded with some folks with experience calling defense (like people wanted)

Jett Johnson was on Mora's UCONN staff as well. Did he go with Mora to Colorado State?

My guy has nothing else going on this Saturday other than posting on Elitedawgs. This is hilarious.

Todd. Step back from the ledge.

This isn't the time to melt.

Be perplexed - sure. But angry? nah.

I've been there with him on other topics. Passion is what makes sports great. I don't agree with Todd on this, but I love for our fanbase to be engaged.

Agreed. And this is definitely the moment everyone can point to if things go poorly next year as the jump the shark moment. Which means we're not doing a halfway measure. Lebby either shits or gets off the pot.

This portal season will be critical to the success of this staff.

Why shouldn't it be a time to be angry? They are bringing back the man who destroyed the program. The man who pissed on Mike Leach's legacy at Mississippi State. We are currently trying to dig out of the hole that HE dug, and we are letting him touch this program again.

He didn't hire himself

This I grant you. Keenum is a dumba$$ for allowing that, but Selmon is also one for bringing him back.

Or since he was at ground level at the time, Selmon knows exactly how much of that season was Arnett and how much was others that are no longer involved around that debacle.

Didn’t we decide that Selmon was pretty good after getting the baseball hire done and helping to retool the baseball program? I can’t keep up.

Don’t try, it just leads to more bourbon. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad either.

Wonder why Mora took the Colorado State job? Horrible fan support, no recruiting grounds, and very sad NIL.

CSU, Colorado, Montana State, Wyoming, Boise State, Idaho, U Denver, New Mexico, Air Force, Wash State, Oregon State, Nevada should all go D2 in football. But it would be Glam D2 like D1 of 1984. Million-Dollar Coach, Good Stadiums, TV Coverage, 0-NIL, all-Scholarship, all-students. Just forget and delete D1 football.

Nope!! We have been assured by experts that Selmon doesn't know shit about baseball and had absolutely nothing to do with the baseball coach hire. So Selmon gets zero credit for that. He's tied to Lebby and that's pretty much it.
