With school out for spring break, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football coach Russ Huesman had time last week to get roasted by the Classic 150 Club, play a few rounds of golf and sit down for a Q&A with the Times Free Press:
Q: Just like with the roast last Monday, do you sometimes get embarrassed by the amount of praise and attention you’ve received after back-to-back 6-5 seasons?
Huesman: Sometimes it boggles my mind a little bit, but I can see where the program was a year or two beforehand, and there are some nice strides being made.
Like I’ve said before, 6-5 is not really good enough. I think it’s good for right now, but eventually it’s not. We’ve got a chance to do good things here before we’re all done.
Q: How much more comfortable are you doing all the head coach things now than you were a year or two ago?
