The board can accuse me of being preachy until its blue in the face. Are we going to s!@# all over every 18 year old that decommits? I really find it funny that so many people, who didn't even attend UVA, have the nerve to blast a teenager, whom they've never met, and have ZERO understanding of their personal or family situation, for not going to a University they never even attended.
I want to make this clear, since the board has a bad habit of putting words in other people's mouths, I'm not saying you can't be a UVA fan without having attended the school, but seriously, the guys you can't wait to kick in the ass on the way out the door are 17 or 18, making the biggest decision of their lives so far. Guess what? As a UVA alumnus, I can say that the culture of UVA ain't for everyone. Best years of my life, but I get why some people don't want that experience. Some recruits commit to the coach IN SPITE of UVa not being a good fit for them.
If the fan base REALLY believes that the Mendenhall era is going to be better than the London era, there should be a lot more "good luck wherever you end up" than "good riddance, don't let the door hit you on the way out." Every person we lose will be replaced. Bunch of old farts rewriting history where they were actually "wise" at 18...smh.
Now I'll wait for the usual suspect to rain hate on me for being preachy by hoping our fan base will be better than that and/or infringing on their right to whine.
