CONNECTICUT HEAD COACH RANDY EDSALL
A veteran of 21 years of major college coaching with three years in the
NFL, Edsall has tackled the challenge of bringing a former NCAA Division
I-AA team up to par with the BIG EAST in a six year span head on. He has
compiled an 18-31 career record in his fifth season at UConn, including
wins in seven of UConn’s last eight games. He is 0-1 against Virginia
Tech. Immediately prior to becoming UConn’s 27th head coach on December
21, 1998, Edsall served as defensive coordinator at Georgia Tech in 1998
under George O’Leary. Edsall began his coaching career at his alma
mater, Syracuse, from 1980-1990, working under Frank Maloney and Dick
McPherson in a variety of capacities. Amongst his highlights at Syracuse
was being a part of the 1987 team that went undefeated at 11-0-1, tying
Auburn, 16-16, in the Sugar Bowl. Edsall moved on to Boston College
where he coached defensive backs under Tom Coughlin from 1991-93 before
following Coughlin to the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars, staying on the
First Coast through the 1997 season. Edsall is a native of Glen Rock,
Pa., and graduated from Susquehannock High School. |
