We were Penn State's first game after news broke of that tragedy. Now we're the first game for UCLA after this... I wouldn't be surprised if Ron Brown plays a significant role in helping both teams deal with this on Saturday.
His guidance would be appropriate, imo.
I agree. His presence at the Omaha council meeting about sexuality discrimination was not appropriate in my eyes, but his presence at times of the Penn St situation and now Saturday is. I wonder now that maybe these things happen with our game weeks because we're the program and fanbase that can handle it 100% the right way.
I had no problem with his appearance at the Omaha council meeting except for the fact that he gave his address as memorial Stadium. That was inappropriate. I disagree with his stance on the issue itself, but I don't have a problem with someone speaking their opinion.
The guy knows how to handle these situations so I think it would be a helpful for the healing of the Bruins loss.
