A change for the better?


That is not clear. At least not yet. With Matt Bonislawski replacing D.J. Hernandez should prove a marked improvement starting with Saturday's game against Navy. But this isn't the long-term answer, nor is it the last time I expect the Huskies to change quarterbacks.

Unless Bonislawski can light a fire under the UConn offense, look for this tio be a short stay. My prediction: Edsall keeps Bones as the starter for five games. That will include the hardest portion of the schedule (South Florida, West Virginia, Rutgers).

Why this plan? Bonislawski isn't returning next year. Edsall can spare Hernandez a series of brutal loses and have him back next year relatively unscarred from a rough season. You give him starts against Pitt, Syracuse, Cincy and Louisville, and Hernandez comes away 2-2.
