  1. Spring game Roll Call

    They did have to open up section 131 to handle the additional crowd which included my wife and me.
  2. GT over/under 5.5 wins in 2024

    Well the two people are gone, so what is the problem now?
  3. GT over/under 5.5 wins in 2024

    You are correct. I just cannot figure out what happened to the fan base from five and more years ago. if you watch video of games over the past 20 years up until 2019, we averaged a lot more fans. The upper east stands used to be pretty full and now they are almost empty. I am not sure where...
  4. Jackets Travel to Louisville, 2/10/2024, MBB

    I have never seen a team blow leads in the final eight minutes of games and just fold down the stretch like this team does, You can see if it coming and it is like they just roll over late. I was thinking it was because they have no go to players in the clutch, but it seems like deeper problem...
  5. GT vs WF 2/6 7:00 PM

    I have watched basketball for a long time and have never seen a drought like that. it seems like CDS could have done something to break it up like call time out, put in five new players, scream at them to wake up, go into a full court press, or something. I hate to say it but it reminded me of...
  6. MBB @ NC St 2/3 5:30PM EST

    Only 2 steals and forcing 4 turnovers seems significant. We should be playing stronger defense than that. Hard to get any easy baskets that way.
  7. Article MBB GT vs. Va. Tech 1/27/2024

    8 of 9 losses now. This team is not getting better but getting worse as the season goes on. It is CDS first year and we need to give every benefit of the doubt to a coach during the first three years of his tenure, but it is fair to observe that this team is not improving. The offense...
  8. North Carolina Hires New DC - Geoff Collins

    I hope we have our biggest road crowd in history this year in Chapel Hill.
  9. 1/13 - MBB vs. Duke

    Any idea why we let Duke run about 15 seconds off of the clock before fouling in the last minute when we were down by multiple baskets? I have never seen high school teams allow that to happen. They were just standing around letting the Duke dribble until they finally fouled.
  10. 1/6 - MBB vs. Boston College

    A lot of discussion about the flagrant foul call. But the real problem was blowing a 16 point second half lead, and it cannot all be attributed it to that. This team can go from very good to very bad and vice versa so quickly. And they never seem to be able to stop the bleeding. And why...
  11. GT vs UCF - Gasparilla Bowl (was GT vs Troy - Birmingham Bowl)

    What I like most about this team is that they do not fumble. No bad snaps, no missed hand offs, and they hold onto the ball when getting tackled. Good fundamental football. Tough players. Great win. Go Jackets!
  12. 2023 Holiday Break - GT in the Diamond Head Classic

    Any win is a good win. They seem to know how to stay cool and not get flustered with the game on the line. But teams have discovered that we have trouble beating the press, and are they going to keep doing it until we show we can stop turning the ball over. The sloppy turnovers have to...
  13. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Feel bad for Coach Key. He joined the coaching profession at the worst time. Must take the wind out their sails when they coach players up only to have them leave.
  14. Postgame: UGA 31-GT 23

    All good points. But the last one on the 70/30 UGA /Tech crowd cannot be put on Batt and Cabrera. It on Tech fans. Tech fans need to get off of their couches and get to the stadium to support the team. Those players are fighting too hard out there to look up and see the opposing team...
