  1. Kyle Sturdivant says goodbye to Georgia Tech

    Man that's fantastic. First off, he looks great in that Letterman's jacket. Second, I would assume he will try to play professionally overseas. Third, this young man has future coach written all over him. I hope he seriously thinks about that someday. Fourth, congrats on getting out of Ma...
  2. NIL to High Schoolers

    I guess Missouri is the first state to do this but they are unlikely to be the last. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/missouri-state-law-universitys-progressive-nil-approach-gives-mizzou-advantage-amid-evolving-landscape/ So Missouri has passed a law that a student who signs...
  3. Conference Realignment

    As mentioned by others the TV contracts weren't all that different by conference back in the 2012-2013 timeframe. It wasn't until the last 5-6 years that the contracts have become very different. I'll also add just adding money doesn't make you a better athletic program. Almost every program...
  4. Building an Offensive Line

    This article focuses on Sanders trying to build on OL at CO his way and why it may be more difficult than he thinks. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/deion-sanders-challenges-conventional-logic-with-colorado-offensive-line-overhaul-ahead-of-crucial-year-2/ The most interesting...
  5. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    Here's how I would place it right now. Will leave Kelly and Ndongo out until we know one way or the other and assume the worst for now. George (So)- 1 McCollum (Sr) -1, 2 Terry (Sr) - 2 Mustaf (Fr) - 1, 2, 3 O'Brien (Sr) - 2, 3, 4 Reeves (Sr) - 3, 4 Sutton (Fr) - 3, 4 Soure (R-Fr) - 4, 5 Kirouac...
  6. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    I disagree on the idea of only having revenue producing sports and then 'club' sports. The scholarships allow many students to attend schools they would otherwise have little means of attending. The goal of college sports should be to open up educational opportunities for students. It should...
  7. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    I agree with everyone above. He was on a team that had a ton of talented depth at his position. I like that he co-won this award at their post-season banquet. All the scouting on him suggests a versatile, glue-type guy that will play hard, is a great teammate, and do exactly what the coaching...
  8. Who is more likely to be drafted: Kelly or Ndongo?

    Ndongo, but to me it is unlikely either would get drafted, but what do I know.
  9. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    I think these comments by Jerry Stackhouse after he was fired at Vandy (Which was justified) show how much things have changed in a very short period of time - 2-3 years. "When we first started here, we thought that just getting on par with the other schools, having the facilities and things...
  10. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    According to the NFL's College Advisory Committee - 1.6% of college football players will ever play professionally in the NFL. That doesn't mean those will all of long successful careers. Many of them may only play a year, or never play for more tha minimum contracts.
  11. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    This article just depresses me and further pushes me away from following college sports. As every year goes by I am becoming less interested. I watched less college sports this year than I have ever done before. I contribute less than I used to. I probably watched more women's college basketball...
  12. Conference Realignment

    Deep dive article on the pontential "Super LEague". PRos and Cons. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/college-football-super-league-proposal-has-merit-but-significant-obstacles-remain-if-restructuring-sport/ The 2 biggest obstacles to it are pretty simple. B1G and SEC would have...
  13. Coaching Carousel 9 - People die climbing mountains

    While I agree that it would have been much better for both Hewitt and GT if he had taken the ST. John's job. I had heard that a big reason he did not is because his wife and daughters did not want to leave Atlanta (his girls were school age at that time). So from a family standpoint I can...
  14. Coaching Carousel 9 - People die climbing mountains

    Will be interesting to see what happens with KY now that Hurley has given an official no. I will say I did like his comment "Once you make a certain amount of money, it doesn’t make that much of a difference in your life" Said one source on Hurley to Kentucky: “They could offer $20 million a...
  15. Bracketology 2024

    The women's games were very entertaining and not just Iowa. When you had Angel Reese at LSU, Paige Bueckers at UConn, JuJu Watkins at USC, Kamilla Cordoso at South Carolina. The level of talent in this year's Tourney was the best they have ever had. Interesting that most of them (except Watkins)...
