It was fun to see other UMass fans. After back-to-back 1-11 seasons, It was good to talk to other Minuteman football junkies. I spoke with "Steve" who keeps the UMass presence up on the MAC boards. Had a good time visiting with "Top row", who's a really knowledgeable guy. I talked a little with Liam Coen, who thinks the UMass offense will be jump started this year.
Coach Shane Waldron, who is recruiting coordinator/TE coach stepped in to show the recruiting video and did a good job.
James Ihedigbo was there and if he ever needs a second career, he could make it as a motivational speaker.
