Mike DiMauro's article sums up many on Boneyard

[CTBasketball]

I don’t recall ever seeing the “Olliewood” signs being confiscated.

The kid made his message and it hit the attention of the fans & media to the point that we now have a thread discussing it as well as mention in recent articles. Confiscated or not, he succeeded.

Correct me if I’m wrong but the Olliewoof propaganda was distributed to the student section by the school.

Same with the player face cut outs.

Ollie unlike his paycheck has earned these signs and getting booed.

That fan you call an idiot cares more about this program than you.

Well that's way off I promise. But continue on and amuse me and everyone else. The kids a and if you agree.....

Yes, those Olliewood and other random signs of players faces are distributed to the students by the school.

Well that's just BS. You can disagree with Mau's position but that doesn't mean he cares less about the program. He's on the GD BY every day for Christ sake. Myself I wouldn't call the fan an idiot but I don't like the look on national TV.

C'mon that look is great for Jor Girard who you kidding imno? I'm sure he was impressed with the sign while being recruited, what wonderful fans. LOL

Keep bringing in those signs that's a real mans way to present one's opinion.

Completely agree with you MAU. It's not bad enough that we got trounced by 20 on national TV. Now imagine how much worse it would look with fans holding Fire Ollie signs in the crowd. Why would any prospective coach come here? If you're a recruit, might you re-open your recruitment just to be on the safe side? Go write en editorial to the Courant or protest outside Gampel, but leave the sign at home.

I was being sarcastic on the reply FYI didn't sound right after I read it just now

Against the rules and bad for UConn.
Disagree? I'll show up at your job with a sign.

Ollie is disrespecting the university. Taking their 3 million a year(which we can't afford in the first place) and blowing up the program. The least he can do is read the fans sign.

With no firm policy in place, confiscating sign at UConn game is troubling

If I were collecting $3mil+ and understood going into the job that I would be the face of a historic program, I'd be carpooling with you to work every morning.

That fact that Dimauro quoted a boneyard post is absolutely hilarious.
