with UVA and Tom was blindsided by it? Do you realize how silly that is. Tom either told Bronco to look for a new job (which I have sources that say this is so) or, he was aloof to the whole "Bronco and UVA negotiations" and was blindsided, or, he knew darn well Bronco was looking elsewhere and made no attempt to keep his best coach with an earlier offer.
All of those options aren't a good look for Tom.
