Our humble coach got little money and what he thought about was the plight of our young kids and how to improve their lives. He was not selfish, he went ahead and bought a land to build an academy. Thus at least he can give back to his country's children.
The later got more money and what did he do with it, cars, cars and more luxury cars. How many cars can one drive in a day.
Life is not always about what your selfish deed can promote but what your inner feelings can do to elevate the lives of others.
If Gyan deserve anything at all, its not a doctorate by a commendation for being able to acquire such fleet of cars. Though I do not dispute couple of investments Asamoah Gyan has made lately. I would encourage him to be a role model for our kids to look up to.
James Akwesi made the right decision and he earned a doctorate degree and must be commended.

Listen Mr POW, do you know how Alex Ferguson acquired his title? The man had won everything there is to win in domestic and continental football, not once but twice and in some case six or seven times. So I will tell you for free, Sir Alex more than deserves his title, oh the Queen of England does not give away her titles cheaply. K. Appiah has done well, I am a big fan of his but then I do not think qualifying Ghana to the WC deserves a doctorate degree. If he wins the WC then maybe but not as things stand right now. POW, do you have a degree? If you do, then you will appreciate how much hard work goes into it, Masters ?, copious reading, tons of hours of reading, researching and writing a thesis, Doctorate ?, well that is a different ball game altogether. POW, do you have any idea of what we are talking about here? I somewhat doubt it

You don't necessarily have to go through any hectic learning to get this award. There's one side of it where one has to write all those thesis and there's the other side where just for one's generosity etc to a school, society etc can lead to that so you folks shouldn't look at just the academic point to judge this. Is this the first time, no. I made mention of Sir Alex because of GHANFUO'S question that says "Since when did you need a degree to coach?" You certainly don't need to be a "Sir" to be able to coach abi? I'm not trying to compare them at all because we all know how big and wide the difference is. Appiah is not in Alex Ferguson's class.

POW, did coach Appiah acquire the degree by taking the course or by taking the Black Stars to the WC? If he take all the required classes and gain the Doctor of Psychology in Sports, then he has done well. This degree will help him cope with the players even better than previously. I believe Jose Mourinnho had something like that before he became a scout, then an assistant coach, then a coach.
Now, with Sir Alex Ferguson, he acquired his by his numerous trophy winnings like Santa stated. Becoming a SIR, doesn't require any programs from an institution. However, Doctor of Psychology in Sports, requries taking classes which comes with researching, thesis and the rest.
Anyway, all the same, I will congratulation to our coach for going all the way to the end. I pray he takes us that far in the WC 2014.

Ebo, I have read, with interest, your comments and would like to share my views with you on the subject.
There are only two categories of Twi, namely, Asante & Akuapem Twi. No, the Kwahus and Akyims are not carbon copies of any fake Asantes as you put it. These two groups i.e. Kwahu & Akyim speak dialects of Twi - which means, these are not languages in that aspect of linguistic, but rather dialects of Twi.
Asante & Akuapem are languages which can be written and read. For that matter, Twi books are either written in Asante or Akuapem Twi and not in Kwahu, Akyim, Brong etc, etc. I hope, I have been able to clarify things, vividly, to your understanding.

Yes, we know. But awarding a PhD just because of qualification to the world cup sounds a little silly. What is so special about qualifying a team to the world cup? Throughout history how many coaches have been awarded a PhD for qualifying a team to the world cup? They saw a coach with no college education and concluded he will love to be called Doctor. So they offered to make a mockery of him. With 5 slots for Africa, Ghana was bound to qualifying at some point under a Ghanaian coach. It is not like the past when Africa had only two slots.

I loud Appiah's achievement but the man still has a long way to go. We need to encourage him to perform but not to fool him that he is already successful. Success is NOT a one-off event. We need him to take Black Stars pass the quarter final berth, and possibly bring home the ultimate trophy. That should be his focus and not PhDs!
I DON'T know why we African's seem to attach so much "esteem" to tittles! We need to move from theories to practice even though I do not want to downplay the importance of the former. We need substance, we need results. We need the trophy! Go Appiah

Google Day Spring Christian University of Mississippi and the only info that comes up about the school is this story. I don't believe this school has the accreditation that it claims and the doctorate is not worth the paper it's printed on. Unfortunately some ignorant fools in Ghana are going to start addressing Kwasi Appiah as 'Dr.' . This diminishes the efforts that deserving people who work so tirelessly to achieve such qualifications, be it academically or through social and philantropic work. What a joke.
At least I'm proud he is fluent in Asante Twi.
I have never heard anybody saying Kwahu Twi or Akyim Twi.
Maybe the Kwahus and the Akyims are just carbon copies of the fake ASSantes.
His VICTORY was against all odds, and should be still celebrating. He stepped-in, and achieved his aims; all others RUNNING their mouths, must take the lesson which is not found in books. He just did it; pure and clean, and n ...

Scary, isn't it. May this not discourage those who will like to go in for a Phd.
But then, Americans never give anything for free.What was given in exchange?
Certainly, you don't need a doctorate to coach but that doesn't mean you can't coach when you have your doctorate. Before Dr.Appiah was Sir Alex Ferguson, nobody questioned that. This is Appiah's time and let him enjoy. Congr ...

I understand your point but this is not a PhD.
What is the difference between PhD and Doctor of Philosophy? Can you please educate me? Appiah's is not a PhD acquired through learning. It is a Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology conferred on him.
Nagetive Inspiration, kinda jealousy inheritance thru birth, hatred and bad " ass" non mannerism, Evil sute sayer's offspring,an"Idiotic ass"
All these words of yours make me have some fresh tooth ache. Dr K Appiah is the greatest
AA HAS DONE WELL BUT IT DOES NOT STAND OUT SO CLEARY.OF COURSE WE WONT KEEP QUIET WHEN HE EXCELS BUT HIS ACHIEVEMENTS DO NOT STAND OUT SO TALL TO GET DOCTORATE NOW
Akadu,you make me laugh!
Congratulations Big brother.

I like Appiah and his mannerism but a PhD from a mushroom institution is an insult.'Day Spring Christian University of Mississippi' quickly awarded a PhD to Coach Appiah. Appiah would like to be called Coach rather than Dr.
Keep fooling yourselves.

How do you offer a reward to someone who hasn't won any silverware?
What is this nonsense? I believe one can easily gain a PhD bu shitting well in Ghana. I am completely disappointed!

People, relax. This is just an honorary degree. It is not a PhD. There is a huge difference between the two.

Dr. James Kwasi Appiah, the Black Stars Coach, Ayee Koo. Congratulation. Those who are against it do not understand what an "Honorary" Doctorate Degree is.
90% OF BISHOPS ARE LIERS!
There is no such University!
There are many individuals who have been given honorary degrees, but they never use "dr" in their daily lives. Hope Kwasi Appiah doesn't think he will be called Dr. everyday.....lol.
