mora > sanders

I don't even know what is his "ridiculousness", but ok...
then you aren't paying attention... or do you think letting his son be a prima little bitch and cutting half his team is normal?

Oh I've been paying attention to everything going on with CU and Sanders, I'm just not a weirdo and have hate in my heart like you clearly do, take care now.

The one thing I like about Deion is that he is a pretty serious fisherman. He tried to break into Pro Bass Fishing’s top level with a celebrity exemption but that didn’t fly. It was probably for the best because he would have gotten destroyed.

Sorry ace, not being a Deion fan doesn't make one a hate-filled weirdo. Not your best effort.
 
resurrecting this thread cuz i made it :)

thinking on this fine day about JM and years 2022-2024.

  • JM said it: Hard things are hard. He is in a hard thing right now, and he is showing he's in it to accomplish something. If he was a flake, I think he would have left by now. 3 years is a solid tenure to give up at.
  • I am impressed by JM's handling of departing players. He is kind, and he lifts them up in the twitterverse
  • JM leans into the transfer portal concept, to turn it into UConn's friend instead of its enemy. Embrace the reality that kids are using us to get something better, and help them get there, so they can rave about us, to their younger bros coming up. I hate that it has to be this way, but his approach makes sense in a system UConn is designed to fail in.

  • JM sticks up for UConn (eg. Washington State/ Tampering, etc.) even though we are a forgotten program in a forgotten corner of the FBS map.
  • JM has a gentleman's respect for UMass and continues to play them, which though UMass is not a program we aspire to be like, we are inevitably connected to given our history and geography. I appreciate this, though I'm sure most don't care.

  • JM likes DB and UConn people - i don't think this is an act, I think it's who he is, and part of his overall embracing this season of his life and career.
  • JM is proud of UConn's accomplishments - he led his boys to a 9-4 season in a culture of "haters" - had we gone 3-9 they'd say we suck. We go 9-4, we still suck. So screw it, he says. Let's have some fun with it and forget it all.


all in all, I am so, so, so, so happy with JM and I hope he gets the ultimate reward of being part of the press conference when we announce our invitation to a P4 conference. I suspect given what it would have taken to reach that moment and the powerlessness of Dan Hurley's/Geno's accomplishments to do it for us, it may rank among his greatest moments in his football life, NFL or college. I am at the point where I am willing to claim that getting UConn into a P4 is harder than an NFL team winning a super bowl.

so again I say ------ Mora > Sanders.
 
He might be stepping down citing health reasons. No comment on legitimacy of that.
Sadly his health is terrible and has been for years. He's had tons of surgeries and he almost died.

I think this press conference is to announce he's stepping away or retiring from coaching.
 
Dang wow, obv this thread has nothing to do with matters like this. Prayers for coach sanders and family.
 
Happy he's not going anywhere for now, he's good for college football.
 
Amazing how a guy that was such an elite athlete and from outside appearances, is still in great shape for a guy that's almost 60 could run into so many health issues. Maybe, I'm forgetting.. but I don't remember ever hearing stories of unhealthy living habits from him. Hope this is the end of it for him and sunny skies ahead

Right, but I mean.. it's not like he's got 8 toes because he ate McDonalds 3 times a day and drank a 12 pack of Coke and got diabetes. Like he just seems like a guy that always took care of himself and somehow still got dealt a crappy hand health wise.
