This can't be possible....Mink and Morris coaching two teams? What happens when the teams play eachother? This is a HUGE conflict of interest.... Training camp starts on monday? ? That gives you 12 days before the first game...Are you holding two a day practices? How many days out of the 12 are you guys practicing? Gospeed75...is the team doing any sort of marketing? I think i figured it out....If mink and morris coach every team they own...they dont have to pay anyone coaches salaries...they would only have to pay for players....probably save about $30,000 per team......

There hasn't been much marketing yet. I think they're more focused on getting rosters set right now. Mini-camp starts today Wed (Jan. 17) and will conclude Friday. Not sure how much we're practicing next week. Probably at least 4 days.

Not sure how much we're practicing next week. Probably at least 4 days. With 2 weeks to go till kickoff, they should be concentrating on the roster... The question is, what have they been doing for the last six months? Players play, coaches coach... you need to hire a staff to market and manage the franchise.

This is Michael Mink I am the head coach of Carolina Speed to clear the air. We had a great Mini camp last week and preparing a press release as we speak. John Morris is the QB coach. Bernie kuebler from Rutgers is the ol/dl coach, Larry Kennedy from the univ of Fla,Tampa Bay storm is LB/DB coach. Reggie Smith former NFL is WR/RB coach. Charlie Newman From Univ of Texas is the Speed Coach. Scott Barringer is the Head Trainer and Dr. Kevin Burroughs is the Team Doc.
Hope this clears the air for you guys..Been pretty busy the last 90 days...
As far as the players we had over 140 tryout and only invited 40 to mini camp, we only called the one's invited. The others who were not invited hang in there and continue working hard, good luck to you also.
The season is coming soon and alot of hard work ahead.Thanks to all the people that support the AIFA.
MM

...not to be harsh, but tickets for the speed don't go on sale until the 24th...that gives you only 20 days to sell tickets before the home opener....What kind of crowd do you expect for the games this season?
