Podcast: There’s more to the problems with UVA Athletics than meets the eye

You want to blame UVA Football coach Tony Elliott, or UVA Basketball coach Ron Sanchez, or the athletics director, Carla Williams, but the truth is, the problems with UVA Athletics are more than what you think.

Our #TeamAFP resident Chicken Little, Scott German, joins me on the podcast for a rousing discussion of all that ails the athletics department at the University.

Included in our rather depressing chat:

  • We’re losing the starting quarterback, Anthony Colandrea, for no good reason.
  • We’re keeping the offensive coordinator, Des Kitchings, for no good reason.
  • Is Carla Williams even around in a few months to have to deal with all of this?
  • Do the issues involving UVA Health and the external review of the Nov. 13, 2022, shootings play a role in all of this?
