That the Shockers are good shouldn't be shocking | Mark Bradley | www.ajc.com - Wichita State also has a coach held in high regard in the industry. On a March Saturday in 2011, a man who is an athletic director at a smaller school stood in the Georgia Dome -- we were about to watch the semifinal round of the SEC tournament -- and discussed who Georgia Tech, which had fired Paul Hewitt that morning, should pursue. "There's no question that the best mid-major coach in the country is Gregg Marshall," the AD said. Tech made inquiries in Marshall's direction but was told he wasn't interested. - We see why now. (Marshall, for the record, has spurned other big-ticket schools, most notably North Carolina State that same year.)
Georgia town not alone in using gun law as 'deterrent' - USATODAY - Larry Copeland - . The city enacted the measure in response to a law passed in Morton Grove, Ill., that outlawed gun ownership. - "When the law was passed, it was common knowledge that it was not going to be enforceable," Davis says. "It was a symbolic gesture." - Still, the crime rate, not that high to begin with, plummeted after the law was enacted — by 89%, compared with a 10% drop statewide, according to published accounts.
