Profsor Tim Gay was a speaker at this year's Nifty Fifty program for the USA Science & Engeerg Ftival. Gay is a very challengg yet rewardg urse. He ially me off as timidatg to me but quickly beme my favore physics GrarGiv good feedbackRpectedThe lectur themselv were very sightful, and he explaed everythg a fairly clear way, however the tts were near impossible and more than half the class dropped after the first Gay might be the most knowledgeable profsor the physics partment at UNL, but om a teachg standpot he is jt awful.

Gay's 211 sectn is by far the harst. Gay do not know how to teach.

Good guyProfsor Gay is great.

NEBRASKA PROFSOR TIMOTHY GAY SPEAKS ABOUT THE PHYSICS OF FOOTBALL

Timothy Gay is a profsor the Physics partment at Universy of Nebraska-Lln - see what their stunts are sayg about them or leave a ratg yourself. * timothy gay physics *

The homework problems are really difficult, but Profsor Gay has lots of office hours and lov beg asked qutns.

Also, the tts aren't nearly as hard as the homework, so that's Gay is the bt Physics profsor on mp.

Physics self is hard, but Gay do as good a job as possible to help his of the reviews seem to be more reactns to takg Physics general than actually to Prof Gay, so let me make this clear: Physics is hard. Prof Gay's office hours are extremely helpful and his monstratns actually make the class good to see that other ppl on this se agree that this teacher is jt terrible. Feel ee to ignore Mr Gay Gay is smart but he has no ia how to teach.

TIPPG POT: AFTER 20 YEARS, GAY SOLV NUNDM OF FOOTBALL PHYSICS

The Gay Group is posed of a fantastic llectn of mds who nduct the credible rearch beg done the lab. Tim Gay.

Timothy Gay was born Ashtabula, Oh on 23 March, 1953. An only child, his parents (both now ceased) were William Gay, a pastor the Uned Church of Christ, and Annabeth McClelland Gay, a church mician.

GAY REARCH GROUP

Consirg me om a Nobel lreate physics, the qutn seemed straightforward enough: When a quarterback lnch a 50-yard bomb downfield, why do the ont nose of the football — which pots upward when leav the quarterback’s hand — tilt downward by the time lands the hands of a receiver? But Nebraska's Tim Gay, the gu of football physics, was at a * timothy gay physics *

Upon graduatg om Caltech, Gay matriculated at the Universy of Chigo, where he earned his Ph.

Gay's rearch terts center on the stterg of electrons by atomic and molecular targets and elementary particle physics. Durg his reer, Gay has been the prciple vtigator on more than $7 ln of grants, and has published more than 100 articl the refereed scientific lerature, cludg two books.

For 90 mut Thursday, Timothy Gay, thor and physics profsor at the Universy of Nebraska - Lln, livered a prentatn entled "The Physics of Football" to an dience of a few hundred, cludg two dozen Old Domn football players. Delivered as part of the ODU Prents lecture seri, Gay's talk vered his time "teachg" the world's largt physics class - via a seri of short vios that played to more than 80, 000 fans on the vio board durg Nebraska gam. Nebraska’s Tim Gay wrote the book on the physics of football.

GAY BELIEV AIR TEMP IS KEY TO NFL'S 'DEFLATE-GATE'

UNL's Timothy Gay thks the Natnal Football League's so-lled “flate-gate” flap is over-flated. The physics profsor believ ld weather — not cheatg — is the most likely explanatn for why footballs provid by the New England Patrts were mysterly unr-flated for the Jan. 18 AFC Champnship game. * timothy gay physics *

Gay knows so much about that he once beme a Hkervisn star by explag to sell-out crowds that filled Memorial Stadium, his talkg head fillg jumbotron screens for mute-long segments durg Hker timeouts.

A iend — Bill Phillips, who also happens to be a Nobel lreate physics — saw the story and ved Gay to give a lecture on the topic at an annual gatherg Maryland.

Gay agreed. “Bill is an extremely iendly guy, ” said Gay, Willa Cather Profsor of physics and astronomy at the Universy Nebraska–Lln.

I don’t know, ’” Gay said. Wh the help of two theoretil physicists — his olst llege buddy, Willie Moss of the Lawrence Livermore Natnal Laboratory, and Richard Price of MIT — Gay fally has his answer.
