Where is this? Whatever the school, they were getting blown out according to the score board. 35- 0 in the first quarter? Gee, that is not a good look.

To tell you the truth, I always thought losing to Furman during Coach Curry's tenure was about as bad as it gets but yes, both the aforementioned losses to the Citadel and Middle Tennessee State were pretty bad. The Middle Tennessee State was embarrassing because the MTS coach told Coach...

True, there is talent but most of it is in the defensive backfield and precious little on the lines where games are won or lost. If someone up front is not blocking and tackling then all that athleticism in the backfields is not going to go anywhere.

No, the forward pass predates Coach Collins by over 100 years. Knute Rockne caught three touchdown passes against Army in 1913 which was when it became a big deal. It actually came about even earlier when President Roosevelt threatened to ban the game altogether following an Army game in...

No, not Les Miserables (the wretched), that is already being acted out at UGA when they lose to either Auburn or Alabama. I don't like Divine Comedy for Miami and FSU because then you have to assign them to a circle of hell and they both deserve to be really close.

He is selling a product. One that has good features and features not so good. At least his models don't have a lot of mileage on them...yet.

This is very true but it is also true that if you don't start winning ball games then recruiting invariably begins to nose dive. The fact remains we have to win games to recruit better and recruit better to win games. Pretty hard to do both but its what must be done. Years two and three...

No place to go but up. Coach Collins and his staff know what needs to be done....best get to it.

Why did he go to Navy? Was it that much more money? Or was it the challenge? The proof is in the pudding: He won at Georgia Southern, he won at Navy, and he won here. Each had its own set of peculiar challenges and positives but Coach Johnson won at all three places. I have said it...

This is what I am afraid MIGHT happen but he is the coach and has maintained that he is all in on pushing recruiting for all its worth. He MIGHT be vindicated or he MIGHT crash and burn. We will see. The academic limitations are real but can be mitigated to some extent with judicious...

Give it time but that is a very real possibility. We just don' t know if his all in on changing the culture and recruiting will pay dividends or if it will prove to be smoke and mirrors burning away like fog on a south Georgia morning. Even if the recruiting is tremendously improved there is...

A very interesting, behind the scenes, type article. The article was written in June and Coach Taggert seems to be saying and doing the right things but here it is a few months later and he is fired? Doesn't make any sense. Why pay a man all that money if you are not going to give him the...

Different shades of gold are a hallowed Tech tradition. Some of you boys just need to simmer down a bit while the grown folks are talking.

When Spurrier was coach at Florida for a few years, may have been after his first SEC championship, he was asked what he learned at Duke and applied it to Florida. He thought for a second and then in typical "Head Ball Coach" smart aleck style said: "I learned that the people in the cheap...

True, but no one in their right mind would have thought Bobby Ross to be anything less than a top tier coach. It was only a matter of time until Coach Ross got things turned around.

The number that counts is 7 as in 7 year contract. He may be good, he may be bad, he may be mediocre, he may have a heart attack tomorrow but Collins, unlike some, wanted this job, lobbied for this job and now its his. I want him to succeed because he is a Georgia boy who grew up a Tech fan...

True, worked out just great for Willie T. He is being paid nearly $18 million dollars by people with more money than they got sense to take his marbles and go home. Good work if you can get it.

Has he dropped a few pounds since coming to Tech? The stress of dealing with unruly fans and the Atlanta media has ruined his appetite or is he missing the Philadelphia Cheese S teaks that much?

That bad? Ouch!

Coach Zook at Florida was a master of disseminating and creating new words and phrases to dismiss reporters. This is what I heard following a typically boneheaded loss to Mississippi State Reporter: "Coach what happened on the blocked punt that led to their touchdown before the half?"...
