    All pro turf 1988 -1994. Grass came back for 1995 season
  2. Portal Watch 2022-23

    Only guys I can think of right away that received meaningful snaps and put up numbers at their new schools were Gibbs and Dedrick Mills. Not sure they got better or raised their NFL stock necessarily - they were already good. Seems to me a lot of GT kids entering the portal didn't end up with...
  3. General News about Key and his Staff

    Cobb and Gwinett Counties have voted "NO" to MARTA service at least a few times, if not more. They don't want Atlanta coming to them. I don't blame them, at least 50% of my trips on MARTA some crazy s__t happens that would make most uneasy to say the least.
  4. The New Pandemic: Roughing The Passer

    On player safety fouls, Officials are getting directed by the conference and NCAA to throw the flag if there’s a sliver of uncertainty. That’s the opposite direction on other fouls (hold your flag if you’re unsure). It’s a point of emphasis the last few seasons. They will never be...
  5. Random question… what made Bill Lewis so bad?

    Yep, what might have been. going into FSU, GT was 4-1, ranked, and had beaten ranked Clemson at home in a big win 2 weeks prior. Should have been 7-4 that year. Went 0-3 to end the season and the slide was on
  6. Random question… what made Bill Lewis so bad?

    BL, and many of his staff, did not have the trust of the players. that became evident well before the 94 season. it just took a couple seasons to unravel. players quickly figured out most of the staff didn’t have the Xs and Os knowledge that the Ross staff had. At least some of his...
  7. NIU HC Breaks Down Upset

    I agree with Lotta. 21 points PPG is a Top 25 scoring defense in FBS. Doesn't excuse the last minute meltdown though. I didn't understand the tactic of substituting 2-3 defensive players each play when NIU was in hurry-up mode. Seems to only add to confusion in a frantic situation.
  8. Best defense

    in terms of scoring defense will be hard to argue against the '85 team. No one will recall the '91 defense but it was pretty good (minus the PSU game) PPG allowed and national rank: 1970 - 13.8 (23rd) 1985 - 11.0 (3rd) 1990 -15.5 (10th) 1991 - 16.5 (22nd) 1998 - 24.6 (50th) (but 7 defensive...
  9. Former Players that are Coaches

    Steve Davenport is HC at South Gwinnett
  10. The Refs

    https://www.gfoa.pro/gfoa-membership-form Coincidentally this organization was founded in 1926 by former GT football player, George Gardner. There are at least a few Tech grads in this association, too.
  11. The Refs

    I officiate HS football in Georgia. I didn’t (couldn’t) see the game so can’t comment on any of the calls. I will say after “officiating” from the stands like everyone else, and now on-field as an official, it’s 10x harder from field level. The play unfolds much faster on field and up close...
  12. Same old question how to watch the game??

    Just signed up for free trial of Fubo. GT game not there
  13. So who leaves? Attrition.

    Was curious if anyone knew where Kirvonte ended up? Couldn't find anything here or on google, twitter, etc.
  14. swilling

    I assume #16 Sims was playing in Swilling's spot? He looked to be holding his own out there, making some plays.
  15. Film Room The First Battle of the Techs - 1990

    as we were about to snap for the winning FG, VT called timeout. Lucky for us b/c the wind was really circling wildly at that moment. After the TO it was still blowing but considerably more favorable than had we kicked before the TO.
