If they want to grow then yes. The idea is to build up. Get undergrad enrollment up to 25k or even be able to raise prices because of desirability to get in. Will also lead to more donations from sidewalk fans.

So you can win football games and expand the Institutes brand.... uga and several others have immensely benefited from their football programs achieving success. Football is the brand of the school and sets it up for visibility throughout the US and World. Only the "nerds" care about the GT...

It's all a lie anyways. All but maybe 10 teams in the power 4 have SA's that are only there for football. GT needs a degree that will develop young men, but also not put too much pressure on them academically to where their main focus isn't football.

Yeah the BOR won't allow the change. Which is messed up. This NEEDS to be removed. GT must start allowing kids to come to the school that have zero interest in a degree. That are there to play football. Why set goofy limits based on 85 kids out of total enrollment. Let them slide and boost your...

Still to advanced for some of these kids. Sadly GT cannot offer a major in some form of "liberal arts". Like Art History or Philosophy. Pad those majors with some bogus classes and let the boys focus on what really matters. Winning football games!

LOL true true. GT needs to drop Calc as mandatory. That should of happened soon as Batt got here. Priority #1 haha.

Have to give and take. Cannot demand your team be all academia and all conference. Need a 65/35 to 80/20 split of football first being the higher number and true student athletes being the lower. That's usually your OL/Special Teams. Everyone else, I don't care if they can count to 5 as long as...

Exactly. GT just needs to be more Michigan and less Emory LOL.

I think that's the point of the new regime... To change GT away from that. To make it more like a bama, michigan and so on. That is for the better.

Simply remove Calc and it can change things. I've heard several stories that kids have not given GT a chance because of Calc. It's a ridiculous requirement.

Revenue at a certain number. Curious how much it cost the A-T fund to prop up softball, swimming, gymnastics, golf. How much of an impact would it be if all that money went to football (knowing those donations would likely dry up rather than go to football). Hell, I wouldn't be above making a...

I can agree with that, but I am also on the side of the only sports that should be funded across the NCAA are revenue generating sports. That everything else should be club level and done for "fun".

GT needs to take the way of Factories and find a way to give the kids easy course work. Breathing 1101, chewing gum and walking 1102. That should be the extent of their college education. They are hired to play football and be an ambassador for the program. College sports is a way to make your...

It hasn't for a LONG time. At least for teams that wanted to win. I personally think you see a decline in education as a whole soon. More people will be accepted, but the curve will be greater. AI is coming hard and fast, you either know how to work with it or you're replaced. I don't mind...

So, I was thinking about the stadium over the weekend. I REALLY hope GT does a "chophouse" type seating eventually. Give me the high top tables with the drink chiller and wireless phone charger. I'd pay a decent chunk of change for season tickets there.
