at Georgia State. I'll bet he does well there.

[StunnA N' Orange]

Yeah, but I could care less what Rod Barnes does from here on out.. He's a nice man, but nice coaches always finish last.

He won't finish last in the Colonial.

[StunnA N' Orange]

Probably not... But I would be surprised if he ever finishes first.

I wouldn't. Georgia State should be the premier job in that league. They have better proximity to a cache of players than anyone else in that league.

But one of his flaws has always been recruiting.. And I don't see that changing anytime soon.

There's a big difference between competing with Memphis and Arkansas for players and squaring off with James Madison and William & Mary on the recruiting trail.

We'll see, but I'll put a 100$ down he won't ever win the Colonial.. As long as Anthony Grant is at VCU, I don't see him ever finishing first.

Anthony Grant will be gone from VCU in two years, if not sooner.

If you know: does Georgia State have athletic dorms? My Aunt who lives in Lilburn told me that it is a communtor school with no dorms, because my cousin is a senior applying for schools, and going there isn't an option b/c of Atlanta's notorious traffic.

Never mind...I found this:

Until fairly recently, Georgia State was known largely as a commuter school due to the lack of housing. After the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games were held in Atlanta, Georgia State acquired the 2,000-bed Olympic Village housing complex located at the southeast corner of Centennial Olympic Park Drive (formerly Techwood Drive) and North Avenue that was used to board Olympic athletes during the Games. For the first time in its history, the university became a residential institution. In August, 2002, the 450-bed University Lofts opened at the corner of Edgewood Avenue and Courtland Street on the northeast side of campus as housing for graduate students, undergraduates over the age of twenty-one, and honors students. In the fall of 2007, Georgia State is scheduled to open a new state-of-the-art 2,000-bed complex known as University Commons at the corner of Piedmont Avenue and Ellis Street, bringing its total residential capacity close to 4,500 students. On March 7, 2007, it was announced that the Georgia Institute of Technology was acquiring the Village.

I graduated from GSU. They are building dorms and it is starting to get some talent from around Atlanta. With Rod Barnes at the Healm they will win the Colonial within2-3 years.
