I'll say this for the first week because someone will ask, "where's...." I send every coaching staff an email late on Thursday and late on Friday nights. I send another follow-up on Saturday morning, and once final flare on Sunday morning. Deadline is Sunday, 2:00pm. If you have a nomination I also put up a thread every Thursday that's available that closes on Sunday around noon. I don't want to have anyone overlooked but if they are send me an email and we can add them to the mix.
