UConn will devote significantly more money to football than Toledo, better players, better results (Toledo SOS was #113 and UConn #117). Candle doesn't strike me as a guy who makes rash employment decisions so picking UConn seems like he expects to succeed. Now what is success, take 2025 where UConn was 9-3 (don't count bowl game as was stupid situation and could have been anywhere from 6-6 to 12-0) and Massey had UConn as #85. Last year #50 was 9-4 Wake Forest and #70 was a 2-10 Arkansas (and lot of P4 schools in between). Being #50 would be a stupendous improvement from anything recently done at UConn. I'd like to think maybe top 30ish like James Madison (12-2) as an aim, and if playoffs go to 24 teams a shot at playoffs as the carrot of the playoffs would really energize a UConn type program. Get to 4-0 this year, and beat the fruit at home and will be getting votes in top 25. I expect to see a 2-0 team when I go to Hattiesburg.
