  1. Have you ever randomly met any GT athletes/coaches?

    In 2016 I'd just been hired back by GTRI out of grad school and I went for a run from my office and swung by Bobby Dodd. It was Wednesday, Nov 9 after Justin Thomas had been knocked out of the game vs. UNC the Saturday prior and coaches, media, and message boards (this one included) were...
  2. General News about Key and his Staff

    I want to take a moment to try and push the pause button on the Morpheus hate, Santino was very good at his job. The ATL and 404 designs were top notch. It's one thing to hate the direction he was given, or who gave him the direction itself, but it's another to hate the product. There's nothing...
  3. Time for Public Relations

    Do you know what the average hit rate for a pitch is? The majority of press releases are the boring type, the type that average Joe's don't see. Most press releases are sort of like you describe, but they still don't get picked up because the content is deemed to be something that the audience...
  4. Attendance Down Significantly (AJC)

    Catstronaut helmets look much nicer than bags.
  5. Non-adidas GT Swag

    I could not disagree more, tough looking cartoon characters are the dumbest things around. Southern's Gus, uga's uga, Dukes... thing, Michigan State's Trojan, Iowa's Hawkeye. There's nothing intimidating about a humanoid cartoon that can't talk. Our own Buzz, Oregon's Duck, Texas's Bevo, Western...
  6. Is there a flyover tomorrow?

    I live between Dobbins and the Bobby Dodd and I'm going to guess yes based on the number of flyovers I'm hearing right now.
  7. 2021 ACC and Competition News

    I'm a Texas Ex, he did not bury the program. Poor decisions by ADs after his firing hampered the program tremendously. It was time for both parties to part ways, Mac was stale and UT needed a new spark, unfortunately Teddy Bridgewater turned pro and Charlie Strong couldn't transfer him into UT...
  8. 2021 ACC and Competition News

    When your prime is winning a national championship against what was billed as the team of the century, you can still be dang good. I thought Mac to UNC was a terrible hire, but objectively speaking, I was wrong.
  9. 2021 ACC and Competition News

    I missed the first half but this was not my observation at all, WR #0 was pretty good and WR Josh Downs #11 was killing it (except for blocking, he was real bad on that). Meanwhile, Howell was getting some serious pressure like you noted, but he just wasn't getting it done. I definitely feel...
  10. 2021 ACC and Competition News

    I'm impressed with their D and surprised at how bad UNC's O is playing. Josh Downs is killing it for UNC though, it's hurts seeing him do so well. Although as I type this I think he's the WR who missed the block that resulted in their back getting dinged up.
  11. Game 1 Uniforms

    I feel like there have been other times where we've wore gold helmets or pants, but I know for sure in 2010 when NC State and Russell Wilson came to town we did not wear white uniforms, they were in white. I guess I like our traditional G/W/G, but there's nothing better than a stormtrooper...
  12. O Line Starters

    I also have a lot of mixed feeling on this, but one thing to be optimistic about is we took no O line recruits between CPJ and CGC, so our oldest "younger" HS guys would be true Juniors this year. Not too young to contribute (Williams), but not old enough that you'd expect them to be starting...
  13. Expansion Talk 2021

    "While you’ll continue to hear that the ACC is fine because of the grant of rights lock up, each year that passes means the exit fees get lower and lower. If other conferences are offering more and more revenue while the exit fees decrease each year, eventually there’s a breaking point." Big...
  14. Donations to GTAA

    Kroger has a similar program to Smile called Community Rewards. I just looked for any GT related programs and could not find any (in the Kroger app click on Rewards from the main menu). My neighborhood association is on there and we regularly get $20/quarter with less than 500 residents. Anyone...
  15. Kaleb Oliver in the portal

    The portal owes Tennessee *somebody* after this off-season, right?
