We're clean.....right?

I seem to remember a several years ago when UConn's apparel contract was being shopped around and Calhoun started making statements about how being a Nike school was vital to our recruiting. Things that make you go hmmm

Schools that cheat don't fish for tuna. They fish for whales.

We's good.

I wouldn't be surprised if we are. Wouldn't be surprised if we're not.

Eh, there's a lot of ways to interpret that statement. One of them definitely is bad for the program and school, but many others that aren't.

Sorry - as soon as I posted I saw the article you linked above and then tried to delete my comment. Too late.

It's important to every school.

Based on our recent recruiting results and the consistent "locks" that go elsewhere, I think Ollie may be the cleanest head coach in America.

Our apparel deal is peanuts in the present day and we had to recruit a power forward off of YouTube last year.

I think we’re going to be okay.

... and we had to recruit a power forward off of YouTube last year.

Yesterday was bizzaro Boneyard, with me accessing from a tablet that wasn't logged in. Every thread access restarted at the beginning, the horde of Ignored (Nelson, Free, and the whole clown car) was out in full force, and I couldn't Like, Post, or Reply.

It was with this gem that I burst out laughing, put down the device, and turned out the lights last night, knowing it wouldn't be topped.

Reasonably good article, but nothing from the CV, Charlie Villanueva.

I thought ours was pretty decent? I believe these numbers were before the newly inked one this year as well.

Certainly not a ton of money, but in comparison to other schools its right up there.
