Randy Douglas Edsall (born August 27, 1958 in Glen Rock, Pennsylvania) is head football coach at the University of Connecticut.
Coaching career
Randy Edsall is a protege of current New York Giants Head Coach, Tom Coughlin. Edsall played for Coughlin at Syracuse University and later coached under him at Syracuse, Boston College and the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Connecticut
Edsall was named the 27th head football coach at the University of Connecticut on December 21, 1998 & led the Huskies from Division I-AA into Division I-A. UConn was the first school to ever make this move and also become a member of the Bowl Championship Series, as a member of the Big East. In 2004, he led the Huskies to the first bowl game in school history, the Motor City Bowl, which UConn won by defeating Toledo 39-10.
In 2007, the Huskies were picked in the pre-season Big East Coaches Poll to finish 7th, however they ended up tying for the conference championship with West Virginia, and earned a trip to the Meineke Car Care Bowl.
