Good article. I think that most here would probably agree with the basic points. It goes back to the start of "bigger time" sports at RU in the early 1970s, though its focus is on football. He mentions each coach along the way, starting with Frank Burns, and described the hiring of Terry Shea and Chris Ash as the disasters they were at RU. Gruninger was not specifically mentioned, IIRC (I read this several hours earlier).

Thanks for posting.

Fred Gruninger—how many tens of millions of dollars did he cost us with horrible decision after horrible decision. I don’t know who he knew to steal a paycheck for that many decades and do the horrific job he did. No other major university athletic department would have tolerated his performance here. It was sickening to see him sitting in The RAC decade after decade.
