Dearest sports fan, I present to you...
CONFLICTED: The Story of College Football’s Funniest Rivalry
Along with the amazingly talented Mike Sivo, our team has worked extremely hard to produce a compelling, entertaining, and hopefully thought-provoking look at the saga that was Bob Diaco’s Civil Conflict.
The majority of the footage for this series comes from Ian Bethune, who works tirelessly to attend the most UConn sports of anyone in the world ever. We’re lucky to have video from just about every press conference from 2014 through 2016 and to have all three UCF coaches over the past four years responding to this story. We’d also like to thank Richard Johnson of SB Nation dot com, Collin Sherwin of The Daily Stampede, and Neill Ostrout of the Manchester Journal Inquirer for their participation in this project.
The series will be three parts long, perhaps with some additional bonus videos or extended cuts down the road. Part One will be released on Thursday in time to build the hype for UConn football’s season opener.
For now, please enjoy our 1-minute trailer, and Long Live the ConFLiCT.
