Coach Carter

year, he averaged 12.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game. Parker also shot 49 percent from the field in 2014 and looks to be even more involved within the Bucks offense this season. He has yet to make his preseason debut this year, but coach Jason Kidd says that he has had a nice training camp. In his rookie season last year, he was only able to play in just 25 regular season games before tearing his ACL, ending his season abruptly. So, in 2015-16 we do have to worry about that…

Larry- they have had their season tickets since Candace Parker came to Knoxville. They witnessed and were apart of some amazing years on Rocky Top- 2 National Championship seasons, crowds of 15-18,000 people, and got to watch the legend Pat Summitt coach. We 've developed a relationship outside of basketball games, Beulah will call me to ask me how my day was or to tell me the weather report, because she knows I don 't watch the news. I will forever be grateful for them and the stories the have…

races. Right from the start, I assumed this 40-minute documentary was going to pertain to the KKK, and their reign of terror on African Americans. Movies that related to my assumptions of what this video was going to withhold were; Glory Road, Coach Carter, and Remember the Titans. Prejudice and discrimination between whites and blacks was the major issue in society. But as the video continued, it appeared to display more than just racism between blacks and whites, but all races. The Japanese…

Individualized Transition Plan: Tracey Though training for students with special educational needs has come a long way in the last thirty or forty years, there is still much that can be done. Assisting a student with the transition from formal education to autonomic adult requires years of dedication and training, as well as strong partners who are willing to accept these exceptional people as they are and provide learning, living, and employment opportunities to insure the best quality of life…

United States. Frustrated at this omission of material from the educational system, Emma Akin dedicated herself to provide a series of textbooks devoted to the students she had come to know and love. Through educating herself with the writings of Dr. Carter G. Woodson,…

“You don’t want to touch it.” I never forgot those words and hardly ever touched the edge again that year. As Coach Mike continued to coach me throughout the rest of the season, I realized how much I really like swimming. At the first meet, after swimming a long twenty-five meters or one lap, I was exhausted. After getting out, a young lady handed me a multi-colored ribbon…

the court with Jrue Holiday. It’s important to note that I did not include Holiday under the guard section. If Norris Cole does indeed sit again, it goes without saying that shot-chucking Holiday ($14,800) is a near autoplay. In other news, head coach Alvin Gentry still has his job. Brook Lopez, BKN at PHI - $13,800 Does Lopez just not box out anymore? It would seem that way considering the lack of rebounds he has been able to pull down over the last couple weeks.
