There's a large difference between a rebranding effort and a radio voice that has been doing our sports games for 30 odd years. Joe D has been a part of this university for multiple ADs, multiple presidents,... even multiple logos.
Call me old fashioned, I guess, but I think it's beyond silly to get mad at someone using the word Connecticut during a University of Connecticut event...
I'm not mad at all ... I actually prefer both "Connecticut" and "UCONN" ... depending on the situation.
I just think if the University sends out a presser to the media wanting to be referred to as "UCONN" ... they would start with their own play-by-play guy and ESPN.
