OT: D. Oneil Takes another Potshot at Jim Calhoun (link)

I always remember the articles she wrote shredding JC and UConn while he was sick last year- and then, when he came back, he was incredibly friendly and did quite a few side chats with Dana to help her reporting when she was covering UConn games.

Told me all I needed to know. About both of them.

Wow

Take a look at the articles/videos from the 2012 Big East Tournament. JC was incredibly gracious.

Yes .

But seriously, I'm not saying drop football - I think the schools I mentioned minus the Catholic seven play fbs football as well. But they are basketball schools first. Maybe join an fbs conference like that? I dunno, this conference realignment bs really sucks. I think we can all agree on that. I just hate seeing our beloved hoops team suffer in all of this.

Those schools are feeling like made men. Vandy, Wake Forest, Baylor... all such schools are pinching themselves in glee.

It's true. I really don't like her. Apparently, saying that strikes some people as wrong.

I feel the same way. I've read articles where she has been less than glowing about our program and HOF coach. I understand not everyone will be, but there has been too much negativity directed towards are program without the facts.

I believe you. It's just that when I saw you were the last poster for this thread on the main page and I was scrolling through the unread posts I was expecting some watercarring when I got to yours. The "wow" an genuine expression of my surprise. Well done.

Look, if someone wants to write negative stuff- that's fine. There have been opportunities where I can certainly understand why.

I just wonder how a person can bash someone, repeatedly, and everything they stood for, have that person always be gracious and helpful to them- and completely fail to see the cognitive dissonance.

Sometimes, the problem isn't them. It's you.

The only two national media/columnists I've ever really thought that go out of there way to take shots at UConn/Calhoun are her and Gregg Doyel.
