Jim Mora Jr. Reportedly Expected to Replace Randy Edsall as UConn Head Coach

Jim Mora Jr. is reportedly expected to become the next head football coach at the University of Connecticut following the departure of Randy Edsall in September.

According to Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports, Mora is the target of UConn's coaching search, and a deal between the two sides is expected to be finalized soon.

Mora would take over a program that has struggled mightily in recent years. The Huskies are just 1-8 this season and are on track to win three or fewer games for the fifth consecutive season.
