I'd love to see > Cedor recruiting for the Terriers!!! I would sooner crawl through dog vomit than see Cedorchuk behind ANY collegiate bench. Only BU's most vicious enemies could wish him upon the Terriers. This would be like bringing Adolf Hitler back from the dead and making him a guest speaker at the local synagogue. I honestly don't feel that I'm using hyperbole here -- I am that horrified at this prospect! Cedorchuk, either through incompetence or treachery, let kids come to BC believing they had scholarships that he didn't have and then told them things like, "Throw out that bill from the registrar." I won't rehash the entire story -- newcomers can check the archives for the Boston Globe investigative story that Cedorchuk never refuted -- but to my mind there should never, ever be any attempt to rehabilitate Cedorchuk. He should remain banished from the game until the day he dies and then he can go and rot in hell. This guy stole the dream that kids had worked their whole lives for and then spat on it. Last summer I was paired with three of his friends in a golfing foursome and they claimed that he was being blackballed and that he was "just a city kid who got caught with too many balls up in the air." I launched into a five minute diatribe that ended with my honest feeling that his merely being blackballed from the game constituted essentially a wrist-slap and that if I were Dictator of the Universe he'd be pounding rocks in Siberia. Things got quiet in the foursome. My winsome, tactful comments didn't generate a lot of help on the back nine looking for any golf balls I hit astray. BU is currently in among the most advantageous positions in the country when it comes to recruiting. For them to throw that away by hiring Cedorchuk would be like Madonna being named the next Pope. Although my first allegiance is to UMass-Lowell, I am a BU alum and a part- time instructor there. I was delighted when BU won the national championship last year. But if they hired Cedorchuk -- ESPECIALLY in a recruiting position -- my first inclination would be to take my red Terriers sweatshirt out to the back yard, piss on it and set it on fire.
