Beating a dead horse

[John Adams]

The response to my last post was surprising.   I figured I'd get flamed but only several responded and
with thoughtful posts.   I was irritated when I wrote that post and I should have said things a 
little different.   First of all, a great many former and current UC fans have a special place in their
hearts for Bob Huggins and what he accomplished at UC and the excitement he brought to the 
program.   Those who knock his record are also knocking the many fine players that came to UC
and played their hearts out making that record.   

The moderators of this forum have requested that we move on and I certainly agree.   Mick Cronin
is now the Headcoach and I don't believe any of the current players ever played for Bob Huggins.  What is
the point of trying to pick apart the past 15 years.   Be thankful for them, what great memories they
are.   

Nothing about the UC program is the same but the name.   New coach, new players, new uniforms, new
logo, new league.  We're starting over and I'm content to let Cronin give UC a new identity and put his
stamp on it.   There is a lot of healing to be done and I would think that the forum would be a good
place to help it along.   A lot of UC fans still have resentment and I think the football attendance is a
reflection of that.   Cronin sure has a job ahead of him in winning back the UC fanbase.   But the keyword
is winning and I feel that we are two years away at best.   I remember and look forward to a time when opposing teams will dread playing UC.   This is what we should be talking about.  Huggs seems very happy
at KS St........and Mick Cronin needs all the backing he can get.   To all those living in the past, it really is 
time to move on.
