Message: [QUOTE="Wordbomar, post: 3100827, member: 7933"] Jeff is a friend of mine, I went to school with his son, and he asked me to pass this along to defend himself: “Despite what Whaler11 has continued to assert for a year, David Benedict was not the source for my report that UConn was under investigation by the NCAA. Whaler11 can continue to carve me up all he wants on every issue. It is his opinion. But it is wrong ethically for me to sit by and not correct his factual error. 100 percent Benedict was not one of my multiple sources. Benedict was in Asia at the time and, in fact, held me off for a couple days before he and the school confirmed it ON THE RECORD. I went out of my way early on to point this out to quell initial assertions. But Whaler11 continues to spout a falsehood. Unfair to Benedict, the school, me and anybody interested in the truth.” -Jeff Jacobs [/QUOTE]
