Looks like UConn is going through some growing pains. To improve the football team, they started hiring inner city thugs. Now the thugs are being thugs on campus. Other universities have dealt with this, hopefully, UConn can too.

After all, not every university can have a good football team populated with really nice college kids the way Ohio State does.

If you look closely during an Ohio State game, some of the football players are studying for class while waiting to take the field - it’s really heartwarming.

You forgot the sarcasm tags...

For Ohio State’s sake it’s a good thing they never embraced a motto such as “Those who stay will be champions,” lest it be completed by “and those who leave will do 15-20.” I agree with Coach Hayes. “You win with people” is a much better slogan, especially since felons, drug dealers and pedophiles are people.

Why bring up Ohio State?
