I haven't watched the Bias one yet. How did it help destroy the football program?
I thought it had to do with something about athletic dept money or sanctions, some behind the scenes shite. Haven't watched it in awhile but I can remember some penalties or some other shite. Baloo can explain it more.

It was more the attitude. A black cloud hung over UM for about a decade after Bias. Bob Wade came in and the team went on probation for giving kids car rides (while UNLV got a slap on the wrist for being caught in a hot tub with a game fixer). Maryland basketball got hammered and the general attitude was to de-emphasize all athletics. The football program let Bobby Ross walk and people just stopped caring. Even the lacrosse team started to suck.
There was just no energy and everything just seemed bleak and horrible. Gary Williams didn't just revitalize the hoops program, it was the entire AD he turned around.
