Waking up the echoes

SPORTING GOODS

In a development that can't possibly surprise anyone in the Constitution State,

a report in the Chicago Sun-Times earlier this week cited an unnamed source saying [UConn football coach Randy] Edsall had been contacted by [Notre Dame] and that there was mutual interest. Edsall had his weekly teleconference with UConn beat reporters [yesterday], and the media was told beforehand that he wouldn't take questions on the matter.

This is pretty much SOP for any coach who's being rushed by another school. Moreover, Edsall has a big game tomorrow night against USF and perhaps a bowl game after that.

I don't necessarily see Edsall as a good fit for South Bend, but he doesn't seem to have any more worlds to conquer in Storrs.
