  1. Scrimmage 8/16

    This was very nice. The only negative is that there is no way Roddy Jones is going to stay here as color analyst. A network will snap him up sure as a gun. Better enjoy his insights while we can.
  2. Offensive line learning curve

    Personally, I don't think it is a learning curve as much as it is finding tackles for this system. It is hard to recruit players big enough who have the athleticism and speed to play tackle. Guards can just be road graders but in this system tackles do a lot more blocking in space AND have to...
  3. 70 Years of GT Football – Comparing Teams Under Different Coaches

    In Curry's defense, he faced some pretty steep hurdles. The facilities were the worst in the country. He had no talent to speak of and a challenging schedule. Little wonder he left. He did leave the legacy of the Black Watch and had pretty good teams before he left. But yes, your point is...
  4. Why are UGA fans so obnoxious?

    Chances are very good that this "gentleman" was not a UGA grad but one of the hordes of idiots that claim to be bulldogs until they lose. They are the sort one might expect to find at a local bowling alley, crack house, meth lab, you get the idea.
  5. To the players that read this board

    Well thank goodness for that. They should realize that even though the Institute tries to protect them I am sure, nonetheless, they are semi public figures for better or worse. Meaning, discretion is usually in their best interests. Now for fans.... let it rip. No fool, like an old fool!
  6. Update on incoming freshman Gary Brown

    Is there any chance we could, like clone him so he could play both sides of the ball? He could even practice against himself. How cool would that be? Just saying
  7. Love this tweet from Coach Pelton

    Love Coach Pelton. This man deserves a raise and the thanks of the entire Yellow Jacket community for his efforts on behalf of our team. God bless him!
  8. Introduce yourself

    Hi John. I wanted to thank you for helping me with registration. Your suggestion about google worked like a charm. Thanks!
  9. Laskey -> "Ready to prove people wrong"

    Unfortunately, given the losses we have sustained it may be best to temper our optimism over these reports. Nonetheless, I am encouraged and excited that this team is accepting the challenge of being largely dismissed by the media and other schools. Good. It will make ***** slapping them that...
  10. Chris Milton Breaks DB Power Clean Record

    Man, will you look at those "guns" Good job by another south Georgia boy. Way to go Chris!
  11. Best DE tandem at Tech

    Boy, that Greg Gathers was some kind of football player not that Nick Rogers was shabby by any means. He looked like a Pillsbury dough boy at times but man he had that quick first step and when he arrived he was usually in a bad temper. We could use a little bit that mind set on this team.
  12. I think Mark Bradley.......

    Historically, Tech seems to do much better when expectations are low. Given the losses from last year, our quarterback, most of our line, our most productive back, and our two best defensive players the wonder is that the ranking is not lower. We will see.
  13. Introduce yourself

    ESSOBEE: I talked to my dad tonight and he said to tell you that even though he was a war veteran and married at the time he was at Tech, it was the greatest time of his life. He also said to thank you for your kind words. As always: THWG.
  14. Introduce yourself

    Welcome Chason: Just what this place needs some young blood to keep us old folks up to date with the latest slang, twitter, etc. Anyway, enjoy high school it is the best time of your life.
  15. Introduce yourself

    Yep, ol Frank had a way with words. My dad said that he and "Peahead" Walker the coach at Wake Forest would come to Atlanta for the Touchdown Club and had a routine that left people laughing in the aisles so to speak. That said, Clemson was always my favorite road trip. Good people and good...
