Anyone else notice that the only people that have real issue with our violations, APR, drummond recruitment etc are those whose programs also were tagged by the NCAA?
Most notably amongst our new haters are UK and tennessee fans. UK more than anything has to do with squid's history with our program, and their denial of their own coaches transgressions. Looking at any article on yahoo, espn, or anywhere else UK fans are the vast majority of those who feel the need to comment on UCONN's and Calhoun's actions and "ethics." Laughable really, but whatever helps them sleep.
Tennessee supporters aren't quite as vocal, but still very present in their newfound hatred for all things UCONN. They are very insistent that Pearl's violations were much less grievous than Calhoun's...apparently lying<texting...
3 years ago the worst we would have got from any of these guys is that JC is a "thug" and Uconnvicts are jokes blah blah blah...funny how things change when you let the outcome of the actual game speak for itself. Everyone knows how much Dook is hated across the country, but it's almost an honor to be reaching that level of hate...Haters gonna hate is one of my favorite sayings on this board, and I guess you can say "winners gonna win" because we are just gonna keep WINNING!
Sorry for the rant...just read some more comments on a yahoo article (my first mistake i know) written about how Uconn's punishment is "laughable" and a joke and felt this was as good a place as any to vent without getting into a pissing match with other various fanbases...
