I have great respect for Dr. Reneau. There is noone more COMMITTED to Tech's advancement on the academic side & much has been done in his administration to bring us to the point where academically, there's not much better around! However, and not uncommon in academicians, he does not perceive that athletics & academics fit in the university experience to give a TOTAL learning & participation experience to the college student to the profound benefit of the student as well as the university.
