how was his recruiting?

i'm semi-serious. i mean, i think the guy can coach, not that the Big East was that great, but like it says about 2002, Uconn just started Div-1 football, so to be able to do what he did is pretty outstanding. but where are the dline recruits?

I went camping with Hank Hughes… I’m in the back of a pickup with Hank and a live deer. Well, Hank, he grabs the deer by the antlers, looks at it and says, ‘I’m Hank Hughes! Say it!’ Then he squeezes the deer in such a way that a sound comes out of its mouth — “HankHughes!” It wasn’t exactly it, but it was pretty good for a deer.

I was out in the woods one time and had to take a shit.

I walked off the trail about 20 feet, pulled down my drawers, and grunted out a big turd.

Two hunters were passing by and I heard one of them say.....


"Shhhhh. I think I heard a buck snort"
