The silence is over.
UNM women’s soccer coach Kit Vela granted an in-depth, exclusive interview with the Daily Bobo after five months of absence from the media rounds about the events surrounding Elizabeth Lambert’s outburst in Provo, Utah.
The entire soccer program has been mum on the events surrounding the Nov. 5 incident involving Lambert, sticking to the idea that loose lips sink ships.
Since the game, Vela has released only a 22-word statement regarding the incident and has granted no interviews about the matter.
But after months of media prodding, Vela broke and spoke about the events surrounding the incident than has been teased over the last semester.
Below is a transcript of the most light-shedding interview to date.
Daily Bobo: After you reviewed the game film against BYU what was your initial reaction?
Vela: No comment.
DB: During the game did you notice any of the “dirty play” that transpired?
Vela: No comment.
DB: Interesting. Could your coaching at all have contributed to her play?
Vela: No comment.
DB: Can you fault the officials for the game getting so out of hand?
Vela: No comment
DB: Was the media attention warranted?
Vela: No comment
DB: Lambert was suspended indefinitely. Has that changed?
Vela: No comment.
DB: Thank you for your time. Vela: No comm… Thank You. Any time.
