Is it tho? Do I think anyone would have acted on those threats? No, I do not. But that's easy for me to say. I'm not a young black man in a state where the Klan was founded. You and I aren't in a situation where we could understand his perception of the situation. And we live in a crazy world where people are killed for the stupidest of reasons. I was just talking about this the other day. Every time I read the news anymore, someone has been killed over something so pointless and stupid. So I cannot claim to understand the mindset JG was in, or how serious he feared those death threats. It's easy to dismiss them when you're not the one getting them.OMG...this is soooo stupid..
Nah - this has nothing to do with superstition or throwing Jonah into the sea to calm it during a storm. You need to stay so you can see and feel what it is like to have a real football program. We had a couple decades of it during the Dickey tenure - UT leaders just lost sight of what was important to keep it going.
For long term success leadership has to operate with the understanding that no one person or thing can be more important than the overall university and its programs. That even includes themselves or their biggest donors/benefactors. Those folks need to be willing to stand down or step aside when things get sideways for the betterment of the university.
Emphasizing good character while owning the responsibility to fix issues and not pass the buck - that always wins. That's what Randy, Donde and Danny are doing. You have to acknowledge the bad and be transparent about fixing it. They have.
Randy and Donde hit a grand slam home run with Danny.
It's time to ride.
That was unbelievable. You have to try to mess it up that bad. Which one did you see? True Crime?Just finished watching a 1hr documentary on Lauren Agee's supposed "drowning" during Wakefest on Center Hill lake in 2015. Sickens me to no end what a pathetic job the DeKalb Co. Sherrif's office, the lead detective and also the medical examiner did in botching that whole thing. I would bet my house that was a homicide. That family will likely never get closure. So sad.
That was so bad, I remember watching a true crime daily video on it. Somebodys parents had some money somewhere that covered their sons ass.Just finished watching a 1hr documentary on Lauren Agee's supposed "drowning" during Wakefest on Center Hill lake in 2015.
