[QUOTE="TheTechGuy, post: 650431, member: 2702"] I'm confused. In a earlier post you said, "Removng yourself from practice NEVER been an option," but here you say that you missed practice for class. I don't think you're advocating for players to miss whole practices for class outside of extreme circumstances like Young's, so I'm confused by your initial statement that implies academics haven't been a priority. Missing portions of practices for class is placing a higher emphasis on academics. If I had asked to schedule a class that interfered with practice, my coaches would have laughed and informed me that we had academic advisors to avoid that issue. Admittedly, this feels like we're arguing over whether a Lamborghini is better than a Ferrari, because Tech is that much more ahead of other schools when it comes to academics, under past coaches and this staff. Heck, other schools, and I know this from firsthand knowledge, select majors or limit majors for players. Even for the "smart guys." That is one of the many reasons that I'm always advocating for players. [/QUOTE]
