\nI personally think it\u2019s not fair that Raschilla was fired. I don\u2019t know the details behind the firing, but it seems extremely harsh to fire a man that\u2019s been with the program for 22 years. I hope Raschilla can find another coaching position that suits him well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
