Jeff Jacobs: NCAA investigating UConn men

[Stainmaster]

So we should keep Ollie then? Is that really what you are implying?

No, you’re making that up.

I’m just poking holes in the hair-brained notion that NCAA penalties wouldn’t have any effect on the desirability of the job when it comes time for the search.

^^ Fake News

The guy who lives on Big Mac's and KFC is not going to hate on Arby's.

I dunno. Maybe he heard it was the favorite fast food chain of hippies (i.e. THE HATERS AND LOSERS) like you.

People jumped all over me a few months ago when I said that my friend at the Washington Post told me this would happen.

What we know:

(1) it wasn't related to the FBI investigation.

(2) due to #1, you've been exposed as full of #&$.

 

[Huskybass]

Is it really about recruiting? I wouldn’t be too sure.

Yes. Several media sources have specifically stated that the alleged vioation(s) relate to recruiting.

This was the lead sports story on 880 am NY this morning. This is what happened with the APR. we get crucified for awhile in the media before the charges come out, then they nail us again, and again.

And to think some people wanted AD Dave to go nuclear on KO re. the stuff that gets discussed in PMs knowing full well the attitude regional media displays towards the program.

how it feels to be a uconn fan these days

On the bright side, maybe Ollie was recruiting harder than we thought.

 

[AntG168]

Things like the boneyard knowing sterling Gibbs was coming here before he even announced he was transferring become worrying now

 

[Guapo]

I can't wait for UConn/Auburn rematch in the final four.

 

[uconnphil2016]

Hey, at least the football team announced their new o-line coach today

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Well, we were back in the news for what, 3/4 of a day. Damn you Izzo!

 

[UCweCONN]

Connection to Nike scandal? I guarantee the NCAA acts faster on this than on our player eligibility appeals..... .

 

[SirHypeAlot]

On the bright side, maybe Ollie was recruiting harder than we thought.

If we were actually paying people I'd be relieved. If they tried to play the game and failed miserably I wouldn't be surprised I'd just be even more embarassed

Ahahahahaha

 

[The Viking]

Welp, Michigan State to the rescue apparently....what a $hitshow that is now. Far worse than what we were likely involved in

 

[huskyinfl]

Let's give ourselves a post season ban this season. Self imposed.

 

[krinklecut]

On the bright side, maybe Ollie was recruiting harder than we thought.

It's like fouling on a layup. If you're gonna do it, you better make sure to do it hard enough that the ball doesn't go in.

Well sounds like he was taking the escalator. Those high speed ones.

When you fire a respected coach like Glenn Miller to bring in a "recruiter" like chill you are probably playing with fire. That move never did pass the smell test for me.

How are you so sure it isn't miller? Chill hasn't been here very long I think this predates him.

Don't think Miller would do this to JC.

Maybe he didn't do it to JC

UCONN basketball is JC's baby. Even still. Anyone does anything to harm it, and they are JC's enemy. I know Glen still cares a great deal about JC. I could be wrong, I just don't see it.

Miller is following him around on the D-3 recruiting trail.

No way Miller sang. It’s crazy talk.

Not to mention it's career suicide to rat on your former employer.
