You don't get it.  His resentment doesn't support retaining KO.  Same with mau and stationmaster.  They argued against fan behavior that was and still is behavior that is a poor look for UConn.

When Bazely decommited from Syracuse several UConn fans went to the Cuse board to observe their crying.  That's the look fans who hate our program love to see when they come to this forum.  The record these past two seasons was the cake.  Our whining was the icing.

During the last two seasons there were games that were decent.  In my book a fan of the program doesn't isolate themselves to one myopic position.  A fan of the program supports the players, coaches and outcomes in a positive way, even as they critique things negatively.  It's called balance.  The anti KO sentiment was so strong people avoided the win threads.  Tell me how that backs up the players?  Or the program? Or future coaches and players?

Tell me how it benefits the program or helps Hurley when UConn fans dismiss any of KO's accomplishments.  If Hurley goes to a recruit and says two UConn coaches have been able to win NCs at UConn (an argument some posters refute when they refuse to give KO any credit)  don't you think that helps him more to convince a recruit about the UConn brand than if NCs are all about one coach?  I do.
