Rule number one, when it comes to talking to internet trolls, is “do not engage.” Yesterday, Ed Cooley broke the cardinal rule when he spoke to Fox Sports about the zero-truth, “false news” rumors indicating mutual interest in replacing Tony Bennett at Virginia. Cooley took the opportunity to cast shame on the fake-news Providence fans spreading the lies, saying, “I’m where I need to be. I’m where I want to be,” and “This will be the last college job I have.” His message to the obsessive PC fans was clear—move on.
