You forgot the most annoying part of that jab..."Welcome to the cellar, Techies (or maybe Teckies) same difference. Coach Ross was humiliated, angry, and tearfully apologized to Tech fans after the game. He came very close to walking away but an assistant or maybe it was the AD talked him out...

True but as someone who lived through those years, I would argue that the rebuild facing Curry was far more challenging than the one that faces Coach Collins...and it is not even close on so many levels.

I am going to look at some of the condensed games, for what its worth, and circle back to you. My first inclination watching the Duke- Carolina game was that the Blue Devils were simply outclassed but I am willing now to suspend judgement upon further review. I still think we are going to...

Would you rank them? I wouldn't. You cannot tell me they don't have another 4 or 5 star quarterback on that roster that can play better than DJ who is just awful.

I think what Stinger meant was in terms of matchups with our defense against their offense. For sure, Notre Dame and Miami have more talent but when a fan of one team (Miami) compares the coach to the infamous gullible simpleton Lenny depicted in Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men" then that is an...

Yes he is and the quarterback is good too but as we have seen having good skill position players without linemen does not work for long. Which team recovers best from disappointing and potentially season killing losses will determine the outcome.

This is probably the worst Duke team of Coach Cutliffe's tenure. We should blow them out by two or three TDs. I would take Tech with a 4 point spread. Tech to win and even our record with 3 wins and 3 losses. Could be better but could be worse as well. Not to disparage the above posts as...

Boy howdy, Frank Howard would have given his eyeteeth for a defense like that back in the day. He would have won a bunch of ACC championships and beat Tech at least a few times although Tech's defense was very good back then too. It is hard to believe but there was time within living memory...

That was the thing about Spurrier at Florida. I have never seen a coach with a flair for, as you eloquently put it, "feel for the game". He just knew when to spring the big play on an opponent, especially Georgia. Alas, our coaches seem not to grasp the whole ebb and flow of the game...

Warms my heart to see a proud daddy and mama with a what looks to be a little baby girl with a gold and blue ribbon in her hair. "Dress Her in White and Gold"

Well, that's one way to slow him down.

At 2-3, beating Duke is critical or the season will unravel for sure. The bad news is that it gets a whole lot tougher after Duke. I am holding to my preseason prediction of 4 wins.

If you have great linemen, you could run the single wing and move the football. "A lineman, a lineman, my kingdom for some linemen" with apologies to Shakespear and Richard III.

LOS? Line of scrimmage? I don't know where it is because it seems like the other team keeps pushing it back towards our goal. TIC

I am sure a Tech coach has done this...but damn if I can ever remember it happening other than Al Groh. Seems to be a rarity anyway. The closest that I can think of is Coach Dodd got rid of two long time assistants who had coached with him for Coach Alexander. In his biography, Dodd said...

That is not the half of it...there was no Carolina connection to assign blame. As for the holding and other tactics employed by Pitt...well, that is who they are. They play with an attitude, just like their coach. IIWII

It is not a good look but I can't blame Charlie. The safeties are the last people to be "calling" anyone out.

That would be Chuck Amato better known as "Chuckles the Clown" by Wolfpack followers. In 2002, he had Phillip Rivers at quarterback, Jerricho Cotchery at wide receiver, TA McClendon at running back and two of the best defensive backs in school history. That team started out winning 8 straight...

The ACC Coastal is not even in talent...just results.
