    "Servant. Husband to Jessica. Father to two wonderful boys. Director of Athletics at Louisiana Tech University."


    PS- A personal irony about Twitter accounts and professional usage . . . as much Tech stuff as I publish on my Twitter account (99%), Tommy does not follow it. (And neither do Marco or Dr. G . . . But DeeWayne (and the News-Star guy) do!)
    The Louisiana Tech AD's twitter account isn't connected to Tech even though you say it says "Director of Athletics at Louisiana Tech University" in his bio?

    I wonder what the 3.6K accounts follow him for since "his twitter account is NOT connected to Tech"...

    Latechsports.com links his twitter account... http://www.latechsports.com/staffdir/latc-staffdir.html Looks connected to me.

    If he was fishing for donations, it may have been a good idea to communicate that.

    Do other universities have this problem?

    What is a civil servant?

    In this case, it means he provides public institutions official warnings when attempting to demolish/replace buildings over a certain age

    Get. Over. Yourself. Jesus Christ, dude. Flaunting vacations on Twitter? We live in a social media world. And believe it or not, you're not the expert on what platforms are the best for all things in other people's lives.

    By "hell week" does that mean he was forced to not cover the largest university in this part of the state, and their unique fall camp?

    I just don't get it. The first article on Tech and it's a negative article about our challenges in the secondary.

    One of my pet peeves is when restaurant servers explain their bad service to me by saying they've been too busy with another table. Although I realize the manager is responsible for staff assignments, the server actually is saying "Sorry I didn't take care of your table. I decided another table was more important than yours."

    Diaz's "Hell Week" explanation feels like that...

    Another article today by Cory. Unfortunately another negative one. Quarterback is no good and we are not ready for the season basically.

    He is buying the coach speak. No way he can evaluate being so green. Let's see how he does mid season.
