Wasn't he one of the names floated to replace Brewster?
The rumor was that he was offered and accepted the job. Changed his mind at the last minute ... maybe due to Maryland offering their gig. Did Edsall make a bad decision or did we dodge a bullet? I think the latter.

I was so underwhelmed by the group of "hot" coaches that year: Hoke, Edsall, Golden. Not a good year to need a coach.
Out of those three I liked Golden the best. At the time we needed a program building and those three certainly proved they could make a loser a winner. I remember watching UCONN play for the Big East title the night before Jerry Kill was named coach and not being all that impressed with the Huskies performance but couldn't argue with the win. Even though we're struggling right now at least no one is flying banners over TCF on game day.
He should have done more with Maryland. He had more financial resources than he would have had at Minnesota.
