I wish we had time to wait around. He just isn't selling the program in the media. He may be working back room deals, but why waste daily opportunities to send positive information and or propaganda out there. Terrible salesmanship. .
Things are really tentative for UConn. The school is getting hammered on all sides. The last thing anyone does in these situations is expose your head out of the foxhole. You take reconnaisance and know your landscape. The CO's just became a new parameter in the equation. They are not playing clean. I don't buy what people are saying about Georgetown trying to play nice. It's a stalling tactic to tie Aresco's hands for a tv contract and the three remaining football schools hands to get the monies. Sadly this is going to head to litigation imo, unless the three remaining schools opt out of the monies they are owed and can cut a deal.
When you are Poland and the German's and Russians are attacking you on both sides, you can shout all you want about how great you are, but you will probably be the first to get shot and your country will still lose.
My feeling is UConn, Cincy and USF need to accumulate as much information as possible about what has been said privately and publicly by the CO's and determine if they have a legal case to claim damages from these recent events. If they don't they just need to set in motion a new league. The tty thing is they may end up paying exits fees in addition to be forced out and that is the one thing I believe they can avoid.
So pr is the last thing the university needs at this moment. They have bigger problems.
