Ted's greatest accomplishment here ... he could do a great impersonation (of an out-of-town journalist) ... you couldn't have a Connecticut reporter call a recruit, because he's always going to say, 'Oh, I really like Connecticut.' And for a Philly reporter, he'd really like Villanova. So, he would become from other places -- either neutral or from the school that we thought was the biggest competition. He was able to impersonate writers -- which some of you do, too, as well as anybody.
That's a four-year-old quote from Jim Calhoun, describing some recruiting, uh, "tactics", Maine coach Ted Woodward used when he was an assistant at UConn in the 80s. (h/t Borges)
