He is a good man that's for sure. His detractors will note that he's made a lot of money in the system he's railing against. I, for one, don't care. Better to speak up now then never.

I was 100% against Coach ever stepping foot in CT again after his classless departure for MD.

I was 50/50 when he was rehired because I thought he could right the ship and we probably couldn't land that once in a lifetime hire anyway. After his press conference for his return and until just now, my approval rating/trust maxed out around 85%.

I am all in. That is the type of person I want my alma mater to employ and it's that type of honesty that I believe will help UCONN on a national level moving forward. We have an academic and athletic history that 95% of colleges and universities would kill for. Yes, we are struggling in the current NCAA climate but it's nice to know we're not afraid to punch the bully in the face and show them that we are still UCONN and we have a voice.

With an ever growing. general lack of trust in the NCAA by even the most casual college sports fan, how has this not gone viral?

I had my first snownado cocktail at 3:30 and I've been trying to Google a pic I could use to emphasize the fact that I realize I'm wearing rose colored UCONN glasses right now.

This is the closest I could find. It's surprisingly fitting due to my blood/booze count but should probably be investigated further at some point.

Thumps up! I like the edge he still has at age 60. Tom Coughlinesk! These are not only fundamentally wise and ethical words but brilliant PR work for recruiting. Parents want to know that coaches look at each kid as special and not just a piece of meat! He has the experience and justification to look at the problem from various angles due to his P5 and NFL resume'.

85% is a little shy of all in. Have a few more cocktails.

He's just upset that his practices are now open to the public.

No, hes upset about another stupid rule.

Please stop with the "Randy Departure". The circumstances have been explain over and over. It had to be done exactly as it unfolded. College football is not "Pop Warner" football. These are young men, they can handle it without "hurt feelings". College football is a business. Other than this observation, I agree with the rest of your post.
