No longer an afterthought following the Myrtle Beach Bowl berth against Marshall and the epic comeback that fell just short, UConn will need to hit the ground running when spring ball begins if they want to maintain the momentum built in…
Coming off of a surprising 6-6 regular season and a bowl appearance, Jim Mora and his staff established some much needed momentum and they carried over that momentum into recruiting. After announcing the first part of their recruiting class in December, the Huskies unveiled the reminder of the 2023 Class. John Neider (QB/ATH) – Law High School, Milford, Connecticut: The Huskies picked a commitment from the Connecticut Gatorade Player of…

The UConn staff – like every other staff in the country – has been pounding the recruiting trail, looking to find that next stud out of high school (there is another signing day coming up in February), but more so trying to find that next bit…

Image courtesy of @UConnFootball The Revolution has only just begun. UConn may have lost 28-14 to Marshall in the Myrtle Beach Bowl on Monday afternoon, but the fight and resolve shown by the young roster down 28 in the second half should have Huskies fans excited for the future. UConn finishes this remarkable season at 6-7, but there should be zero doubt in anyone’s mind that head coach Jim Mora,…

Ironcically enough, the last timed they played in a bowl was the St. Petersburg Bowl in 2015 and their opponent that day was Marshall. The Thundering Herd won that game 16-10. So in essence, this is a revenge game of sorts for Jim Mora’s squad. The Huskies have gone through some lean years so…

Ahead of that game, we thought it might be interesting to take a…

There’s one guy who believed in Mora the entire time though. The man that hired him. Athletic director David Benedict believed in Mora’s ability to lead from the time he gave him the…
