I was at Rentschler Field on Saturday and UCONN fever is an epidemic! The stadium is beautiful and it should be a fun year. I spent three football seasons in Morgantown, WV, which was my first personal experience with Division 1-A football. At WVU, football is a religion, it's insanity and tradition is everywhere. From the band, to the tailgating to the bars you hit afterward. There are a very few traditions associated with UCONN football, but it will be fun being a part of the creation process. I think they have a long way to go, but the program just landed three recuits that were also recruited by BC and that has never happened before. Things are moving in the right direction. I feel like I did when Jim Calhoun took over the basketball program. There's a lot of hope an promise regardless of what happened in the Indiana game.
I'll wait to see how they do against BC and NC State before I put them in the top 50 though. It was kind of neat to see them on the poll though.
