I've worked in both government agencies and private industry. In private industry, this is most definitely common. In any government-related business, taxpayer money is involved. Any appearance of favoritism or kickbacks is going to cause a huge issue because it looks like someone is trying...
With the limited practice hours, it's understandable that the coaches don't work on things like free throws during the time that they have available. This is one of those areas that could be helped by players becoming leaders for the team and doing what they can to get the team into the gym on...
Can they accompany the position coach (or the assistant coach assigned to recruit a geographical area) on recruiting visits? I think it would be beneficial to have him along for a visit with kids who may or may not remember as much UT history as we do.
Since this would have been his senior season and he would be playing in the NCAA, would he still have to come back for the 2012-13 year? I'm not sure what the NBA requirement is on that other than that they be 19. Does their high school senior class also have to be one year removed from school...
^^ this. I remember a day that I tuned in to hear him going on about how he and Kiffin text each other often. Remember how stoked he was about Tennessee last year? It's all about who he likes and what team they're with at that particular moment.
We went to the South Carolina game last year and sat at the 45 yard line in row 6. No problems seeing over players. When the game was on the opposite end of the field, it got a little difficult seeing the plays that went to the far sideline. It was my first time sitting right behind our bench...
IF we lose commits to Kiffin and Co. it would only mean that those kids were committed to the coaches, not to the school.
The ones who stuck with us through it all, like Corey Miller, were committed to the school and must have liked the looks of those yellow jerseys.
No worries. Every time we get into 3rd down and anything more than 5 to go for a first down, we just run a screen pass and watch our guy run forever. It'll be okay being on the other side of 3rd and Chavis.
Can't help but respect the man after what he's been through with the knees and everything. What's up with the disrespect at a funeral for someone's family member? Can't people just pretend to have a little class for 10 minutes while they talk to the family? Have to give Wes credit for not...
