-Is Coach Barnes on the Hot Seat? I say yes but it's interesting to hear his views on the direction of the team. I'm told that he sat down for quite a while with The Voice and is happy with the progress. I'll post more later.
-Speaking of Men's Basketball: Ever wonder about the basketball recruits that didn't sign? The NBA Draft is this Thursday and it's likely that a recruit that Barnes and staff were hot and heavy after will be drafted in the 1st round. That'd be none other than Terrico White and from what I understand it was either us or Ole Miss. In recruiting you win some and you lose some.

I'll give it to them today.
-College Football and the Video: A great link provided by one of the father's (big ups JML) of the football movement. This has been imperative to recruiting and spotlighting the football program and I think we have a good grasp of this at State. Highlighting Oregon: http://www.vimeo.com/9387016
-Georgia State isn't in NCAA 2011 - Newsflash for those expecting us on their video game set to be released July 13th. No FCS teams are on the console this year which is a big downer from this gamer.
-Men's Soccer has a new coach, familiar face: http://bit.ly/d84IGC. Say it with me: In State Recruiting...
