“We were a defenseless sitting duck the past three seasons,” as Golden put it Tuesday, carving out a few minutes for the media.
“In all the years these [latest recruits] were contemplating where they’d go to college, thinking about it, there was nothing but turmoil here.”
All of this has been a legitimate reason why the program hasn’t accelerated more than it has, but it is always a fine line between explanation and excuse. The NCAA probe has given Golden a sort of extended honeymoon here; with a legitimate caveat, a “yeah, but,” following any criticism.
Now Golden, 44, is finally beginning to work on a level playing field.
Now we begin to fairly judge him without shackles or excuses.
“It feels great,” he said. “But were not relaxing. We’re building. Growing.”
