Can't imagine how the media would cover this if LHC Bill Snyder did it

They'd probably cover it similarly

The article didn't even mention the coaches name. You still hear and read references from the national media about Snyder not disclosing injuries, as if it isn't now standard practice. Snyder got an undue amount of criticism about his control freakish ways, as if he was/is unique. We can acknowledge that there are absolutely differences in how programs are covered and media biases applied without going to the tuckish "everyone hates us" manifesto.

College football coach paranoia is legendary, but HCBS has been picked on more than many for it.

What people forget is that the outgoing seniors in Snyder's first year told him they thought people were spying on their practices.   Back then the practice fields just had a chain link fence around it.

Well, that was just one article and it just broke this morning. There will be more about whatever the Oregon coach's name is being a control freak moving forward.

Also, Snyder's secrecy is no longer a rarity and therefore stories like this won't get the attention they might have in the mid 90's. Also Snyder is now a loveable old man to the media, so maybe they'd even be gentler if there was a story like this.

If Snyder did this, Dennis Dodd would be madder than when Aaron Rodgers mushed his bald face
