New Blog: Backing the Pack for NC State Fans!


OK 2nd one, I swear I'll stop after this one...

What's the dealio with all the coaching shuffles?
I'm sure several of ya'll have heard about the recent resignation of Georgia Dawgs coach Todd McCorkle.  It's pretty strange to have some resign so suddenly right before post-season play, especially someone with a coaching record as good as McCorkle's; so what's the scoop?

I wish I could tell you.  The Georgia girls have done a pretty good job of keeping their mouths clamped tightly shut.  However, fear not gossip queens and tabloid tootsies, the university has just completed an investigation on the situation and hopes to release the information on Monday.

In addition to Georgia, these are the other schools scrambling to find coaches for the upcoming year:
Texas, Texas A&M, New Mexico, Mississippi, Minnesota, Tulane, South Florida, East Carolina.

More information about the Georgia situation is covered in Beth Ann Baldry's article in Golfweek:

hmmmmm
From the Athens (Ga.) newspaper account (http://www.onlineathens.com/stories/050907/golf_20070509068.shtml) the day after McCorkle's resignation:

Trent Leon, a sophomore golfer at Oklahoma State and the brother of sophomore SEC Player of the Year Taylor Leon, said he thinks "all the girls are happier."

"I think that team will do better at regionals and nationals without him there," said Trent Leon, who was reached on his cell phone in Irving, Texas. "I think Georgia women's golf will be better off without that coach, just from what I've heard from Taylor."
