Despite our program’s difficulties, at least none of our outgoing seniors are secretly recording their difficult “final meeting” with the coaching staff like somebody did to Gard at Wisconsin - where they openly blasted him. What the heck is going on in Madison?

Ahhhhh, as in, "fragile white men" who get offended (and their panties in a bundle) over a comment like "You sound like 12 year-old girls."
