I thought relevance was a step function.

Yeah.

Not relevant -> Kind of relevant -> Relevant for a time -> Somewhat relevant -> Relevant.

He comes off as unwilling to accept bull**** and will fight against it.

Heck, I wish we had more of that.

I know, right? I wish just one of our coaches would engage, or be perceived to engage, in some activity that would be a recruiting violation so they could go into a talk show and get grilled. That way they could stand up to the host and show them they've got some cajones!

I wish we could get one of our coaches on a talk show where someone gives two ***** about Rice to even bother investigating whether there was a perceived recruiting violation.

And we know that Rice hasn't done the same thing how? Lots of things can be "perceived recruiting violations" while being completely above board. We just don't have anyone that cares to look.

I guess if nobody cares to look, we have a lot of leeway to cheat, and Bailiff stupidly is not taking advantage of it. Graham did, but nooooo, not bailiff.

Just another strike against bailiff. I hope our next coach uses the loopholes given him to win some games. Of course, winning will mean increased scrutiny. We all know how the NCAA loves to punish the top programs.

Of all the complaints against Bailiff, not being perceived as a cheater is the oddest.

Honestly, all parties involved in this story come off as 8 year olds fighting over a marble on the playground. I'm embarrassed for these two radio idiots, who exhibited a serious amount of classless and disrespectful behavior in the way they addressed Herman. I'm embarrassed for Herman and UH for even engaging in such childish behavior: why would you even call this stupid radio show? You would never see Bailiff stoop to such stupidity, and anybody who thinks this is a bad thing needs to have their brain examined. Bailiff isn't stupid enough to get caught up in such a lose/lose situation.

Herman is reading his own headlines too much these days, thinking he could come in there and scold these fellows without getting a bit dirty himself.
