If you want to argue about theoretics go back to college. This ain't no philosophy class. Perception is reality in the real world.

PLUS, my response has nothing to do with you. What ax do you have to grind? Or are you just here to dispute anything/anytime/anywhere?
Personally, I find it comical that you're jumping New Coach for having Bobby Maze in his avatar when you have Ted freakin' Nugent in yours. I could just as easily stereotype you as a far-right gun nut fearmonger, since there is, as you put it, "truth in all stereotypes."

I know plenty of rappers with their ph.d.

Did anyone really think Bobby Maze was here for an education after listening to his interview?

puhlease... half our male student athletes smoke pot... oh no stereotype...

I'm proud of people like David Yancey who walk on and get their degree in nuclear engineering. not juco transfers...

That's his point. Kids that leave (or are kicked off the team) that are in good academic standing count for the APR, even though it is an academic rating not a discipline rating. So when Ramar and Duke go byebye they hurt us, even though their grades were a-ok.

If those two things don't spell "RETARD" then I don't know what does.

Amen! Watch and see how many hat ass kissers jump on his side and jump on you because they all think he is a genius that knows everything about everything. If I do recall,hat said that Maze would be no better than Ramar. I'm not sure how exactly he said it but i remember that he said something like for those of you who think that Maze will be a step up from Ramar, have another thing coming. Now he wants to take up for the guy. He probably has been surfing around volnation all day and finally found someone to hate on. Sometimes, he does the very same thing that he criticizes people for. He is such a hypocrite and a washed up old fart. I wonder how old he is. He sure does have a bunch of bitterness that has built up over the years and likes to take it out on people on this site. The funny thing about the people that kiss his ass and think that he is GOD is that he will turn right around and step on them an they still come back for more later. It's like he knows something on most posters on this site and they have to put up with whatever he does and worship him. I'm still hoping that he starts his own website called hatnation. Billy G and Bob Huggins can both be his top alcholic members. I'm sorry, drunk members is a better description because they probably don't go to meetings.

haha! Round 1 is over, with Mullet/Hotrod starting out with a jawbreaking left hook only to have Hat/others consistently wear down the body. It was looking grim for the tough pair until Hotrod came out of left field with a haymaker for the ages! We see the round Mullet/Hotrod 10, Hat/others 9. ding ding ding! Let's get round 2 going!

Don't see it. High-powered personality, yes. Which is what we had to have to take over the shambles of a Tennessee basketball program.

thos idiotic rant might have made some sense had you not tried to link hat's discussion of Maze's ability to his bashing someone else's bigoted trash. The comments to Mullet had absolutely 0 to do with Maze's ability to play PG at the SEC level.

FWIW, I think Maze can play at the SEC level and Hat completely disagrees. However, the two of us are in complete agreement about Mullet's redneck drivel being inappropriate.

Finally, before you go assuming I can't form my own opinions, I think you'll find many here who think I'm plenty unique in my conversations.

Arguably the single most laughable post in the history of cyberspace. I realize you're working with limited intellectual resources, but how does my opinion of Maze as a player relate to the fact I don't think he should be subjected to openly bigoted sterotypes? I can't say I'm surprised to see you come down on the pro racism side. It's about your speed.

If you're going to accuse people you don't know of being "alcoholic," at least know how to spell the word.

I agree. Hence, the phrase "Academic Progress Rate."
