Knoxville, TN FIRST Team?

[Jeremy_Mc]

Anyone on CD on a team in Knoxville?

I'm moving there to UT next year and I'm looking for a team let me be a college mentor type person...

I looked on the directory but I didn't see any (of course, I could've easily overlooked them).

Feel free to PM, e-mail, or IM me about it.

If not, are there any UT (or surrounding schools) students that would like to start a college sponsored team?

I don't really know if thatteam's gonna be around this year. I'm good friends with a few of them & they didn't get the best experience out of it. They spent all the time working & then their principal didn't want to let them go after the whole thing broke out in Iraq. Plus the main people on the team graduated & moved off to college. In short, I'm not sure if the team exists anymore.

Aw that's too bad!

Well it looks like I'd better start calling some high schools huh?

The team is still around. They are a little late at getting things started and have combined with another school this year. They should be attending the Peachtree Regional this year. They are sponsored by UT, some of the robotics professors. Hope that helps. I can try to find contact info if you need it. Let me know.
