UMass’s football team, and its brand, are taking a beating
Dan Shaughnessy
UMass’s football program is an embarrassment. This is not the fault of the student-athletes. It is the fault of the UMass administration and the athletic department. The players are not being put in a position to succeed, and that’s on the grownups and the citizens of Massachusetts who are letting this happen.
Simply put, the Minutemen should not be playing big-time college football. They lose by whopping scores. UMass is 1-9. Here are the scores of the Minutemen’s last five games:
Florida International 44, UMass 0.
Louisiana Tech 69, UMass 21.
UConn 56, UMass 35.
Liberty 63, UMass 21.
Army 63, UMass 7.
