Now that he’s built the UConn Huskies football program into a winning one, Randy Edsall’s name has been coming up for coaching openings.
He’s being linked to the Kansas job, that’s not even open yet by the way, due to KU’s athletic director Lew Perkins’ ties to UConn. And now according to the Chicago Sun-Times, Edsall has been contacted by the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, a team UConn just beat two weeks ago.
Meanwhile, a source said Connecticut coach Randy Edsall has been contacted by a Notre Dame representative to gauge his interest in becoming the next Irish coach.
Desmond Conner of the Hartford Courant doesn’t believe this to be true stating that there is no indication that this has taken place yet.
Edsall won’t meet with the local media here in Connecticut until tomorrow afternoon. I’d expect him to address this rumor right off the bat. My best guess would be that he will says he’s only focused on the South Florida game this Saturday night.
