There is only one story that Hoo fans are talking about. This morning, we look at what student-athletes, current and former, who have played under Bronco Mendenhall have had to say about last night’s announcement. The one above is from first-team All-CC-er Jelani Woods. There are way too many to post all of the reactions, but below are some special tributes from former players.
It’s crazy to even think about this ! I was here in 2016 when he first got here ! I remember the Press Conference like it was yesterday “TRAIN” Now to be back and see you leaving is unreal! You were what this program needed! I Thank you so much @UVACoachBronco https://t.co/iBXubX6zZX

Cant believe this. Coach Mendenhall took a chance on me, a skinny awkward basketball player, and turned me into an All-ACC Linebacker. But what separate Coach Mendenhall is how he developed me, and all his players off the field as men. I cant thank Coach enough for everything🧡💙
