As I said, if he did it purely out of love, he could coach a HS team.
Why does a teacher teach 11th grade Trigonometry when he can teach 1st graders? It's purely preference. Perhaps he simply enjoys coaching collegiate athletes as opposed to high schoolers. It's the same reason some coaches who could go to the NFL decide against it. Sure, they could make more money, but they prefer molding young adults as opposed to simply telling them what plays to run, etc.

Let's see how Clawson and staff work out. If it goes well then maybe Chavis will move on and UT can make some similar hires on D. If the DC is upgraded then I don't think he'll be missed as a LB coach.

Pastors, and rex can attest to this, run across all types and can't "assume" that everyone fits into a nice little box like what you seem to assume.

Pastors who are worth anything seldom make what they are worth (and no, I'm not thinking of myself but rather the great pastors I've followed). They are often examples of people motivated by things far more valuable than money or fame or position... but you don't seem to understand those motives or acknowledge that they exist.

Never have shown me where I was wrong. You've just used your fantiastic pastoring skills to shove some backhanded remarks my way, nice job. Remind me to stay away from your church.

Again, he did not do it for you or any of the fans. He did not leave Richmond to come to UT because of his passion for making fans happy. He did it for the prestige, money and future opportunities.

You seem to be quite good at putting people in boxes.


Again, can you tell me your church so I can be sure never to attend it?

Good job Crusse. In case you are not aware, he was already a HEAD COACH at a college. Wonder why he left? Must be because we have so many fans he could make happy.

And again, since everyone is NOT primarily motivated by these things AND because this particular guy turned his back on those things to stay in the field he loved... Your assumption of his motives IS NOT a statement of FACT.

Your own words formed your box... don't get angry with me because I saw it.

If you believe anything close to what you seem to be suggesting here... you desperately need a good church.

Invitation to all. If I am somehow misreading what allvol123 is saying then please let me know. In a nutshell, he seems to be saying that everyone's ultimate motive at all times in their work lives is the pursuit of money and promotion.

Is that a mischaracterization allvol123?

You can mock all you want but there are people whose material desires aren't what motivates them. They'd much rather have the affection and approval of other people.

Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of "The Five Love Languages". That would be an easy place to start educating yourself that everyone isn't motivated by money and promotion.

Turned his back on what? Richmond? Ah yes, for his pure love of the game.

My church is fine, I've noticed no pastor there that resembles you. The day I do, I find another church.

No mischaracterization. At the root, all our motivations are selfish. If you mean selfish by wanting more to take care of your family and yourself.

1 Corinthians 13 says something far different than this as does 1 John. Love is the greatest motivator... and is specifically NOT selfish according to the Bible.

to offer something that pertains to the world of recruiting; the 2011 guys are already getting serious attention.

ATH:Devrin Young Bearden,TN

ATH:Jabriel Washington Jackson,TN

QB:Kevonte Richardson Millwood,OK

QB:Tyler Rice Wayne County,TN

RB:Jeremiah Bryson Smyrna,TN

RB:Chris Sensabaugh Kingsport,TN

and check this kid out (he's 14 years old):

Kenny Hillard Patterson, LA
The 5-11, 213-pound Hilliard was a Louisiana 3A first team All-State selection, a clear testament to development beyond his years.

He averaged over 6.8 yards per carry and finished with over 1,800 yards despite not being on varsity for Patterson’s first two games.

“His vision is probably the thing that sets him apart,” head coach Tommy Minton said. “He can see the crease, and has the ability and acceleration to bust through it.”
