Drummond Scholarship Situation

[champs99and04]

75 articles on how we are DB's when MB gave up his ship- front page. Over several weeks. Now nothing.

ESPN can suck it. I am sick of their BS. If this is really true- why not run a feel good story during the holidays? Is there a better story then a guy like AD doing the right thing. Warms the cockels of my heart.

Let's make them hate us even more this year.

WE ARE DOOMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought about that as well. Unfortunately a story where people have the chance to rip Calhoun generates more page clicks than a feel good story like this. We've had so many disappointing and disgusting stories in college sports over the past year. It would be nice to for once, hear a story about a kid who does the right thing, and is able to think about more than himself.

Drummond is a kid who has his priorities in order. If he is able to fulfill his potential and become a star, he will someday be a great role model for children and a great represenative of this University.

I thought JC's policy is that walk-ons don't get their name on their jerseys............

I fired off an enormous amount of tweets to those folks who bashed us when he commiteed, and have yet to report anything on the new events that have transpired. Not suprisingly I have not gotten a single response, nor have I seen this reported by anyone outside of CT.

This story will be discussed during games through out the season. It is a feel good story about kids who are showing something other than greed. And the apr should improve as well. UConn will get its share of good pr as Cuse, Miami, PSU, North Carolina and Georgia Tech get negative press.

I'd say it's safe to say Drummond will go down is the best walk-on player at UConn ever.

No, that's best walk on in the history of the universe.
