Football Drags on UConn’s Power 5 Ambitions (NYT Nocera)

[lne001]

Gotta love the way some of these "well known" writers/sports columnists/sports radio personalities write/talk so much trash about athletes, sports programs, franchises, as if they actually played a professional sport before.. I respect the ones that might've done that a little more than guys that clearly never did...

I might agree, except you do not have to be a chicken to smell a rotten egg.

And Rutgers went to Bowl games 5 years in a row, off one year, then another 4 years in a row.

9 out of 11 years between 2005-2014.

Rutgers and BC are bound together in ignominy.

I hear ya... It's just annoying to see somebody that has had 3 too many donuts passing judgement on somebody that actually did something and that fatso gets paid for it like he's a God.. given the ability/authority to spread their own personal views which a lot of folks start to look at as fact, which ain't true.

Honestly I tend to agree, but Ohio State is one of those schools that would probably force us to play at Metlife so they can use it as exposure to the market and as a recruiting tool.

... pretty sure you just described Gresh ... and he is one of the guys you are advocating?

And sadly, STILL has a better lifetime football history than UCONN.

At lest RU is above .500 in its history.

This is like bragging about getting a D- on a test. Hey at least we didn't get an F.

Excitedly awaiting for the "we are above .500" trophy to arrive!
