Cheek to step down.

If this place didn't have walls I'd be holding the roof up too. They better. I'm closing on a house Friday.

 

Please get someone who understands one can strengthen academics without sacrificing athletics.

 

I think the Serrano hiring is proof that UT doesn't really care how educated you are.

 

Very shameful hire.

 

meh, i'll say the same thing now I did then, they hired him to coach baseball, which up until then he'd done well at.

 

I don't trust people to manage students that couldn't manage being one themselves.

 

Meh. He isn't an academic teacher. In fact, I had no idea coaches were required to have a degree until I heard about Sarrano's troubles. It is simply another facade put up by the schools to pretend they are doing it for "academic reasons".

 

When was the last time you watched a game to see a coach turn in his dissertation?

 

What does that have to do with wanting the leader of student athletes to have proven that they know how to be a student?

Why even have this argument? Serrano was a failure here. I wasn't surprised, I guess some of you were.

 

I didn't know it until reading this post. I don't really follow college baseball, I just thought the Serrano thing was a big deal because he lied.

 

Still, at the time he was hired, he'd had nothing but success.

 

You don't need a college degree to win in California. You do in Tennessee. It's pretty obvious.

 

Congratulations on the house.

 

Thanks

 

Get a little woman pregnant and barefoot in the kitchen and you're living the American dream

 

let's not rush into all that

 

I think that's safe to say

 

hey-oh!

 

If Hart doesn't go like you said, NY, I'm coming after you. I know where you work...

As to the coach/degree thing, my dad barely had a high school education, but every engineer where he worked came to him when shit needed fixed/designed correctly. Don't get me wrong, I think it's best to have a legit degree, but not having one doesn't mean a coach can't do the job.
