    The ACC will delay the start of competition for all fall sports until at least Sept. 1

    I was getting fed up with just getting my news from the AJC and the Wall Street Journal. And am trying to come up with my own view of covid. I looked at the data from the Georgia Department of Health. The number of cases remained in a range until after June 1st. The number of cases increased...

    The ACC will delay the start of competition for all fall sports until at least Sept. 1

    Out of all the reported student athletes across the country that have reported positive, are any of the kids having serious health issues? I have not seen any reports of bad outcomes yet. What about the coaches and supporting staff? I would think it would be impossible to keep them covid...

    The ACC will delay the start of competition for all fall sports until at least Sept. 1

    The media will play a role in the way this progresses. I suspect by the time fall camp starts the media will have found villains to go after. There will be more bad news about players and situations, and the media will run with it. I see the window we were hoping for starting to close.

    All Time GT Team

    forensic, I like that you put David Lutz as a favorite tackle. I got to know him while we were in school. Great guy and he saved my bacon at the Mad Hatter one Wednesday night. So obviously he tops my list. Had a great pro career. My favorite receiver is Jucky Burnes. Played during the...

    Roddy Jones: New ACC Football Podcast

    Listened to Caralla and liked he did the workouts with the kids. Too bad Roddy had to go political.

    C'mon Scubapro, tell us how you really feel.. lol This time last year I was all hyped up with the videos and Waffle House stuff. Ready for a new era in Tech football. Loving what the coaches were saying and looking forward to the start of fall camp. I was a "Thacker Backer". Now it's covid...

    Coronavirus Thread

    Agreed. I got into the Peachtree for the first time in 15 years and was actually getting into pretty decent shape until March. The the postponement til Thanksgiving and sore knees stopped that. I think Thanksgiving is likely a no go too. I have put on almost 10 pounds since the gym closed...

    Coronavirus Thread

    When folks talk about our federal government as a solution to anything, I ask "What does the Federal Government do well?" Or better than anyone else? Other than sending out checks, I have yet to get a response that resonates.

    Coronavirus Thread

    The folks you cite have been right about as often as those on this board. Besides, this board is much more fun to read than other media.

    TONIGHT: Celebrate 1990 Win at No. 1 UVA via YouTube

    In my group, we called him "I ain't missin' Sisson". After watching the game again, UVa got all the calls. And Willie "Big Play" Clay made a great interception that was stolen by the zebras.

    Techster, I read the article you referenced about vitamin D. The good news is that there is a solution. “However, it is clear that vitamin D deficiency is harmful, and it can be easily addressed with appropriate supplementation.” Bingo. Problem solved. Also from the article you referenced...

    Wifey and I were walking the beagle today at a local park. On one of the football fields was some sort of quarterback camp. Maybe 20-25 kids doing drop back and passing drills with several adults in supervision. They looked to be high school kids, but it is hard for me to tell anymore. Music...

    As time progresses, there is a glimmer of hope. My secret hope is that most of college football has a season and the fruits and nuts in California prevent football. This is meant as humor. I agree, that whatever happens it will be an unusual and historic season.

    Report: Pepper Rodgers has passed

    I was in school when Pepper coached. I would walk past practice on my way back from class. He had music at practice long before CGC. And a gal teaching stretching or something like that. Very progressive for the times.
