It's time for Diaco to quit complaining about the program and try to win some games.
He has let two winnable games go into the loss column because he was evaluating or playing for the future. This is college football there is no future, there is only this year. Let's see game plans that catch opponents by surprise. Let's see personnel decision that are geared for today. Let's see if Diaco knows how to use his TOs.
If you want to have a winning tradition, giving away games is a poor way to start. The best way to learn to win is to win.

'The story of Palantine is set in the years before and after the Conference Realingment. In a pleasant village, at the foot of downtown Hartford, lives kindly Palantine, a UConn Fan. Palantine enjoys solitary activities in the tailgate area, but he is also loved by all on the BY—especially the children to whom he tells stories and gives BY points. However, he tends to shirk UConn FB rebuilding, to his Boneyarders dismay, which has caused his fandom to fall in disarray.
One fall day, to escape boneyard nagging, Palanatine wanders up the mountains with his husky, Jonathan. Hearing his name called out, Plantine sees a man wearing antiquated Husky gear; he is carrying a keg up the mountain and requires help. Together, they proceed to a hollow in which Palantine discovers the source of thunderous noises. A group of ornately dressed, silent, bearded men who are playing flag football. Palantine does not ask who they are or how they know his name. Instead, he begins to drink some of their moonshine and soon falls asleep.
He awakes to discover shocking changes. His UConn gear has rotted, his beard is a foot long, and his husky is nowhere to be found. Palantine returns to The Rent where he recognizes no one. He discovers that his favorite coach has died and that his close friends have found a new team or moved away. He gets into trouble when he proclaims himself a loyal subject of Bob Diao, not aware that the Conference Realingment has taken place. Diaco's portrait in the inn has been replaced with one of Bob Stoops JR. Palantine is also disturbed to find another man called Palantine. It is his son, now grown up.
Palantine learns the men he met in the mountains are rumored to be the ghosts of UConns' past winning football teams, which had vanished long ago. Pal learns he has been away from the The Rent for at least twenty years. However, an old boneyarder recognizes him and Pal's grown daughter takes him in. He resumes his usual postings, and his strange tale is solemnly taken to heart by the boneyard posters. Other hen-pecked men wish they could have shares in Pal's good luck and had the luxury of sleeping through the hardships of Conference Realignment.'
