it is my privilege today to salute Vermont radio personalities Steve Cormier and Tom Brennan, best known to Vermonters as the morning team ``Corm & the Coach'' on Champ 101.3. Sixteen years ago, University of Vermont basketball coach Tom Brennan made a guest radio appearance on Steve Cormier's radio show. The two of them hit it off, not only as a duo, but with listeners. What started as a guest spot ended up becoming an extremely popular morning radio show for 16 years. Recently, Coach Brennan decided to go out on top, as he did when he retired from the University of Vermont following three consecutive America East Conference championships. ``Corm & the Coach'' will air for the final time on Wednesday, July 2, 2008. Fortunately for Vermonters, Corm will remain on the air, continuing to keep us both entertained and informed, and Coach Brennan will continue to provide expert college basketball analysis on ESPN. I have had the good fortune to appear on ``Corm & the Coach'' many times, and thought it important to take this opportunity to extend my appreciation to both of them.
