G-DAY VISITOR’S LIST
RumRunnerDoogie Every school will fill every scholarship allowed by NCAA every year. Who is hurt? No one is left out because every slot is taken. The ESPN statement only makes sense if one starts with the assumption that the wrong schools are getting the players.
CLTDawg PTCDawg Exceedingly useful observations, thank you! At the top of her list at the moment is Emory, she was very happy with her visit there…William and Mary was probably second and Georgia third…her best offer was Alabama but she just does not want to be in Tuscaloosa for some unknown reason…tho their law school is very well respected. She is waiting to hear back from Vanderbilt on the scholarship offer. She has not been there but their employment numbers are very impressive. Hopefully it would not be a place she would be unhappy if she was able to go.
ESPN says banning satellite camps hurts recruits….well last i heard IMG wasnt hurting on exposure…morons
PTCDawg CLTDawg Hmm…tough call, because it depends. In general, rankings (however flawed they may be in their calculation) are a good tiebreaker because many law firms use them when making interviewing/hiring decisions.
In general, most students’ ideas about what “area” of the law they want to specialize in will change while they are in law school. It’s usually not a good way to choose a school, because what if your interests change? Also, and with very few exceptions, law schools offering some sort of specialty is usually just a bunch of marketing. Some exceptions are Vermont with environmental law, Tulane with maritime law, Chicago for law and economics, or NYU for Tax.
So I would advise that ranking is probably a more useful decision making tool than a school’s specialty. That said, the most important things to me are:
1. Location in relation to the job market you want (Don’t go to Seattle School of Law if you want to work in Augusta, Ga., for instance). Some schools have a national footprint though, so this matters less for them.
2. Employment statistics for the school.
3. Whether you’re comfortable being there. Whenever I’ve hosted visiting law students, I tell them that when I was on my visits, one of the things I’d look at is the overall environment in the building. Are people generally happy? Is there conversation or laughter? Are people in groups? Some law schools have great environments. Some have more forlorn environments. It’s a product of the curved grading system, the competitiveness between the students, and the rigor of the degree.
Hope this helps! It’s your daughter who’s looking, right? Has she narrowed it down at all?
CLTDawg PTCDawg Will give it a try, thanks CLT!
BTW, your opinion CLT…would you be more likely to choose a law school based on their national ranking or based on what kind of law they tend to be know for?
PTCDawg CLTDawg Lol! If you have your email and password that you use for your cable/satellite provider, that should be all you need!
CLTDawg PTCDawg Oh, if its just a website..i can do that!!!
CLTDawg PTCDawg My girls arent here to show me how to work that!!
PTCDawg Use the Watchespn app! Watchespn.com
Dang. I thought GDay was on ESPN2, which I DO get. It is on ESPNU, which I DONT get. Thanks to whoever posted this info earlier so I can now plan ahead. Ratz!!!
UGA Football Snapchat had some of the 1 on 1 circle drills today. Reggie Davis and Juwuan Briscoe got after it!
MMCSDAWG This staff gets Ramsey’s head on right and we see the Ramsey we have been waiting on, you heard it here!
CLTDawg Greg Poole Agreed!
Farewell and good Dawg bites until later on. Happy hour at the French Market Grille beckons. And since I rarely have a reliable chauffeur, have to make it count. Some gumbo, followed with marinated shrimp, and a plate of crawfish etouffee’ beckons. If it ain’t Red & Black, it ain’t!
BenKellam MMCSDAWG OH. Aye. Don’t disagree, but just saying, it didn’t look good given the whole situation.
MMCSDAWG Jesse1 Bulldawg36 Can they not go wherever they want if they are dismissedfrom a school?
Bulldawg36 There hasn’t really been anything shocking in recent memory. The worst i can remember is Jon Taylors agravated assault. And he wound up at Auburn. The rest is nonsense like signatures. Oh and Ogletree stole a moped helmet his freshman year.
MMCSDAWG BroDawg All good here.. Gonna take my youngin the GDay game it looks like… He is just getting at the age where he loves the game
Seems like ours is always for petty stuff though. Maybe I just don’t pay attention to other schools
MMCSDAWG BenKellam Bulldawg Bob2 This is true. According to that police report, they found a bong, bag of weed shake, blunt wrappers, and a grinder but didn’t find enough of any residue to charge. I wonder how Kirby is going to treat that. Richt would have probably suspended them both 2 games to start the season on top of whatever suspension comes from the actual arrest.
Jesse1 Bulldawg36 Not with Kirby as our coach…
Bulldawg36 That may no longer be an option or Plan B for our rejects.
Maybe that would help
BenKellam Bulldawg Bob2 MMCSDAWG Agreed, but two wrongs don’t make a right… they weren’t charged with anything alcohol or drug related, that is a minor miracle in itself compared to times past…
Bulldawg36 I am not impressed with how this matter was handled by the maintenance man or
It is what it is… Just a mistake made. They will hopefully learn their lesson and concentrate on academics and football for here on out or end up at auburn.
MMCSDAWG Jesse1 Bulldawg36 Yup.
Jesse1 Bulldawg36 We will find out soon enough!
Bulldawg36 So is everyone else brother…
Bulldawg Bob2 BenKellam MMCSDAWG The bottles are really no different than every other student on campus.
Bulldawg36 New sheriff in town. A bit more flexibility with regard to these matters perhaps?
We are always facing adversity when it comes to players getting suspended!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BroDawg Nothing much! Looking forward to G-day and hopefully some new commits in the near future! how about you?
What’s up guys? Other than the BB Gun bandits…
BenKellam MMCSDAWG I don’t think they found enough to charge them with anything drug related, but it just doesn’t look good given everything else. They also found wine and beer bottles, and while having the bottles is not a crime, that also didn’t look good since Clay and Rochester are under 21.
MMCSDAWG Ah just burn it and make it go away.
Here is the police report for those that care to read… I didn’t, but in case your interested.

rugbydawg79 Jesse1 RumRunnerDoogie MMCSDAWG That would be Tony DeGrate. Or maybe that middle linebacker Jeff Leiding who was one of the first 1st round draft picks ever to be cut before September. Dawgs kicked their tail.
Jesse1 BenKellam MMCSDAWG You can say the same about white tube socks and shoelaces. There’s a reason that those items are kept in a glass case right by the register at sketchy gas stations. Point is, basically anything can be “paraphernalia” if you want to spin it that way.
MMCSDAWG Greg Poole BenKellam I would have counter sued. And since I’ve got not only the time but the inclination to do so, he’d tear up his brats driving permit.
Jesse1 rugbydawg79 RumRunnerDoogie MMCSDAWG I had buddies at the game and they confirmed what you said Texas was talking all kinds of trash -and one their DL was talking smack to Lastinger – made it so sweet when he scored
Jesse1 BenKellam MMCSDAWG I have a Grinder for “herbs” at my house as well! lol Nothing like some fresh Rosemary and Thyme.
Greg Poole BenKellam MMCSDAWG Don’t I know that… My knucklehead son and a couple of buddies decided to do donuts in his HS parking lot. You don’t want to know how much they charged us for repairs to the freaking parking lot and there was one parent that claimed damages to his son’s car from some gravel that was thrown during the incident.
Greg Poole BenKellam MMCSDAWG Carrier weight law aka piling on.
BenKellam MMCSDAWG My tea spoon could be construed as drug ” paraphernalia.”
BenKellam MMCSDAWG Once the system is doing the math, you’re screwed.
MMCSDAWG Also 650 bucks for a couple of BB dents in a fridge and 350 for a wooden door? lol no way
haws1178 See one grab one. Collectors items lol.
MMCSDAWG If they found “drug related items” in the bathroom but didn’t charge him for anything, I doubt they found anything real.
