At some point, in the next week or so, I will be writing a letter addressed to at least four the principal decision makers at the old alma mater. I haven't quite decided how to go about doing it, but I'm going to mobilize some effort somehow, someway to find out exactly what kind of commitment and goals we have for our university in the future. Because the track record to date over the past several years, is not showing me that we have the aspirations for our football program that the rest of the athletic department has for their programs, and the reality of the intercollegiate world, is that without a football program that is accepted into the highest level of competition, we lose the opportunities to be considered among the elites, in many, many ways. This was known, back in the late 1980s by UCONN leadership, was acted upon effectively through the 1990s, albeit with great difficulty, but was successful growing and moving by the 2000, and then was completely fumbled by UCONN leadership through the 2000s. WHile the success on the fields and courts was phenomenal, the management failed entirely to do what was required to sustain the growth that had occurred.
The failures we are at right now, are bigger than a loss to 1-AA Towson. It's the breaking point - somethign must be done.
