Joe, want to comment on your professionalism for not disclosing your ties to McGovern, especially when his ability to coach again was understandably called into question. My condolences to you and his family.

This is a sad day for the UCLA family, and especially for McGovern’s. I will be grateful for having him here when we did and for him helping us start to turn the program around and wish he had a little more time here on Earth with us. Rest in Peace.
