I remember whenArute took a call on his show from a CT caller right after Pasqualoni was fired.  He was asked about CR...his immediate and quick response was pretty brutal...over looked the horrendous job P did and went off on Herbst and Manuel (something to the effect that UConn was screwed in CR until the people calling the shots got their  together, and that P wasn't the issue, should have beeb allowed to coach out yr 3).  I listened to his show religiously up until that point.   For a CT born & bred guy who lived pretty close to campus (he lived in Stafford at the time);  who had a college sports radio show focusing mainly on football to stick up for P told me all I needed to know.  I was able to find this interview between periods last night at the game.  All I can say is what a difference a few years make.  That and the fact that Benedict's boss at Auburn spoke his praises...so now Jack is back on board.  It's funny how a few years and one hire can change perception.  It's also funny how Jack Arute lives in CT and had absolutely NO IDEA how big UConn's athletic budget is.
