<p>Right when it seems like all hope is gone and that political correctness has ruined all of sports, along comes a man by the name of Francis &#8220;Biff&#8221; Poggi to really give it to the media for being the sidewinders they really are.</p>
<p>Poggi, the new head coach of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte 49ers, unloaded on journalists Tuesday after they only asked him a few questions during a press conference after ranking his team dead last — <a href="https://247sports.com/college/temple/article/temple-football-picked-to-finish-10th-in-aac-preseason-poll-213165185/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">14 out of 14</a> — in an AAC preseason poll as voted by sports writers.</p>
<p>&#8220;That’s it? Three questions?&#8221; Poggi <a href="https://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2023/07/27/biff-poggi-charlotte-college-football-rips-media" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> at AAC media day. &#8220;Maybe that’s because you have us ranked last. That’s all that you think of us. So &#8230; we get that message. Thank you.&#8221;</p>

<p>Poggi, one of the<a href="https://pressboxonline.com/2023/01/17/for-baltimore-high-school-football-legend-biff-poggi-wildly-exciting-to-lead-charlotte/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> best high school football coaches</a> in Baltimore history and a former University of Michigan associate head coach, joined SiriusXM radio to break down why he was disgusted by the &#8220;disrespect.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You guys suck, let’s get to the next guys,&#8221; Poggi said, mocking the media. &#8220;And I would like to take whoever those writers were who voted on that, and hold them upside down by their ankles and smack their heads off the ground a couple times because they don’t know sh*t.&#8221;</p>

<p>Poggi is well respected by two of the best coaches in college football and many others.</p>
<p>Upon his hiring at Charlotte last November, Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh said in a statement, &#8220;Biff has been a tremendous asset to our University of Michigan Football program, providing support and mentorship to our coaching staff and players. He has a great football mind, knows how to prepare a team during the week and on game day, and is a coach that aims to change the lives of his players in a positive way. Biff is a trusted agent and known friend, and I know that his leadership and ability to develop a team-first culture will be a huge asset to the Charlotte 49ers.&#8221;</p>

<p>University of Alabama head coach Nick Saban also praised him.</p>
<p>&#8220;Biff Poggi will generate excitement and success for the program,&#8221; Saban said. &#8220;The players will love playing for him and the coaches will love working with him.  Get ready to win!&#8221;</p>
<p>Saban, of course, has also been known to let the media have it. Here&#8217;s a sampling of some of his best moments:</p>

<p>Poggi&#8217;s comments are worth re-emphasizing so that readers can really get a visual for what he wants to do to journalists.</p>
<p>He said he wanted to &#8220;hold them upside down by their ankles and smack their heads off the ground a couple times&#8221; — like a pogo stick — &#8220;because they don’t know sh*t.&#8221;</p>
<p>That masterful use of the English language paints a vivid picture. Not since the days of NCAA basketball Coach Bobby Knight have we been given such a soundbite.</p>
<p>And how about Poggi&#8217;s undying belief in his players? To steal a phrase from Harbaugh, the 49ers must be ready to attack today with &#8220;an enthusiasm unknown to mankind&#8221; after his remarks.</p>
