Yes. He played fullback as well as I dimly recall. I taught briefly in Griffin the late 1970s. Griffin was a huge powerhouse in a fairly tough region that included LaGrange, Newnan, Fayette County, Riverdale, and the Clayton county schools. In college, I knew a boy who had played quarterback...

A fine player for Clemson. Built low to the ground very similar to Joe Frank Harris the undersized power back for Coach O'Leary, I think.

You are not kidding. I was at a Tech- Clemson game at Grant Field. Clemson ran a quick toss to tailback Stacey Driver with a fullback in front of him. Roof hit him low and Stacey as a good back should twisted around to try and escape and damn if Jim Anderson did not pop him from one side and...

Coach Curry had a lot on his plate during those dark years. Far worse than what Coach Collins had to deal with or Coach Key. The worst facilities in division one, absolutely no depth. Tech did not even have a weight training facility other than free weights located under the North stands. It...

It comes with being a head coach. Coach Key learned all about dealing with assistant coaches from two of the best Coaches Saban and O'Leary. He knows what he is doing.

Want to improve this team? Improve the lines...both of them.

It is not over until its over, a famous philosopher once said. Of course, this "rant" overlooks the fact that this is not a good team or even an average team. Tech is mediocre as befitting a middle of the pack or lower ACC team. IIWII

"Stop"? Why? It is true whether you believe it or not. Orange bowl win. Tech had not been to the Orange bowl since 1966. Not going to anything remotely like it for a while it would seem.

Well, the Gas House Gang did win a World Series but the characters on that team which included Dizzy Dean and Pepper Martin was pretty much like a "gas house gang" baseball team at times.

Paul Johnson was probably the best coach Georgia Tech has had since Bobby Ross. Point is he did not need these players most of whom are not nearly as good as a lot of people think.

Just about every team, except Tech, can move the ball and on a good day score points. What only a few teams can do is absolutely shut down an opposing offense. I watched Alabama playing and their defensive backs stopped receivers and running backs in their tracks. Elite teams not only have...

For one thing, stats do not tell the whole story. Anyone who has watched the Hokies this year knows they are at best an average offense. Their best game was against Miami and they were flat out cheated by the officials of a win in that game. When I see our defense pressuring a team like...

Very similar to 2015 in that regard. Funny how it seems as though all of them are on offense.

5-7 is not just possible, it is now even money. NC State is more than capable of beating this team. They are not great or even good, or even average just mediocre like us and Virginia Tech. The usual ACC middle of the pack and lower teams that infest the conference like fleas on a hound dog.

You see coaches talk about players not making a trip for disciplinary reasons but this is the first time I have ever seen a coach not make a trip and it be mentioned on a post game show as though he was a player. Strange times indeed.

Ole Miss has a far better quarterback, a true gunslinger, and wide receivers who will take your lunch money if you so much as peek into the backfield. They are a fringe playoff team playing at a high level.

If they are indeed a "free agent" then about a quarter of this team should test the waters of free agency with the coaching staff giving them a "highly recommended" boot out the door.

Are they "very good" or is our offensive line very bad?

The future will not get brighter until the defense is much better. It may have improved though I am skeptical, but for this team to become a respected 8,9. or 10 game winner it all starts with both lines especially the defensive line. Shuffling skill position players around will not get it done.

An average defense? Maybe but that assessment might get shredded when we play Miami.
