Well gang, I've returned to the world of online coaching after a brief, emergency hiatus. It is with much happiness that I'm able to post the following:
In a very emotional setting, Coach Joaj returned to the helm at Cincinnati, defeating the Louisville Cardinals 21-13. Taking time off for personal reasons and opting to protect his family's privacy, Joaj hasn't coached since defeating Hawai'i last season. He missed the bowl, recruiting, the off-season and the beginning of operations for this year, as well. But, like MacArthur, he promised to return and return he did. There wasn't a dry eye in the stadium as the coach was carried off the field by his players after the win.
When reached for comment, coach Joaj had this to say:
"It's just great to be back. You know, I could've never done it without the support of the other coaches in this league - they made this possible. We might be bitter enemies on the field, but off of it, we're like brothers."
About the game:
"Louisville's a great team. They love to lull you to sleep with the run and then kill you deep, but we just tried to stay alert and play smart down field. It might've weakened the box a little, but we never gave up the big play deep. I'm proud of our D today. We need to do lots of work on offense, though - the second half is still a problem here."
When asked why he thought coach Shah at Pitt ran up the score in such tacky fashion while he was gone, coach Joaj replied: "no comment."
Cincy hosts UConn before playing 3 games straight on the road.
Coach Weezy was reached in his office for comment on this afternoon's showdown at Nippert stadium, "Although today's loss was tough, I was damn proud to be out there for Coach Joaj's return. He is a great man and coach and the big east is a much better place with him. With that said, this cardinal squad will get their ass beat this week in practice."
Man, it feels good to be back! Since both H.Weezy and I post here, I guess the annual Bucket of Nails showdown also decides the FTS Champion. Sweet.
