What if...? The promised recruiting results fall short or, more likely, what if after the accumulated recruiting hauls are made and Tech is in the top 25 for a couple of years the record of losing continues? Recruiting, hype, gimmicks, slogans, are eye candy for fans, the real work is...

When the fans stop complaining...that is when a coach should start worrying. No worries Coach Collins, it will be a long process. I have written this year off and put down next year as a incremental step forward. By years three and four, we should be in contention for Coastal Division...

The official said he did not have possession when he went out of bounds. I do not think it would have been overturned but it would have been worth a try. Nick Claytor was considered by some to be the best offensive tackle in the state coming out of high school. He sure looked the part, big...

I can, but transition differences do not account for losing to The Citadel that just had 60 plus rung up on them or playing a game against Temple where our offense was so inept it was outscored by our defense despite 300 plus yards of total offense. If we do not get better all the way around we...

Much too early to make those kinds of comparisons but Coach Collins has the support of the players who seem to genuinely like him and his staff. Poor Bill Lewis was targeted almost from the start. Coach Collins and his players can still turn this thing around but they best get to it with UNC...

You did not watch the same game I did. Playing like that against a G-5 team especially following a bye week after losing to the Citadel is inexcusable. The coaches have to be accountable and start coaching better. Likewise the players are going to have to decide if they are going to play...

The only bright spot I could see is that our guys did not quit. I think James will settle down and only get better going forward but honestly, I do not see another win in this team for this year except possibly Virginia Tech. Remember when the "battle of the Techs" was almost always for the...

Surely, you are exaggerating this just a wee bit...I trust?

Buffalo just lost badly to a MAC team 34-20. The Citadel gave up over 60 points to Samford. I still support Coach Collins, not that it matters, but resting on future recruiting hopes is not a way forward when you are being beaten like this. It is only going to get worse unless drastic...

Need more defensive tackles.

I thought they had a good run defense too...until I saw the Buffalo game. They had two defensive tackles that look the part but against the bison they looked like Tarzan and played like Jane. When I watched the Maryland game, I was impressed with Temple and would have picked them to win and...

Darren was a classic late bloomer somewhat overshadowed by Smelter on the other side but he put on a show at the Orange Bowl.

I don't think he quite meant it that way even if he said it After all, how often do you take a two star high school player like Shaq Mason and turn him into an All American and NFL quality starter? (Not often) Besides, why hire someone whose whole program is going to based upon raising...

He did mean "must win" in that sense but young football players are much more resilient than we give them credit for. Whether we win or lose is not irrelevant, we want to win but we MUST show improvement across the board, offense, defense, kicking, coaching. All of it must get better. Do...

Pretty fragile I will admit but what I saw watching the Buffalo and Temple game may be the future of much of college football. An oval stadium, not huge, but maybe 35 to 40 thousand capacity, perhaps. Hard to tell on TV but there was a large oval end with thousands of empty seats. I would be...

Just going off an admittedly defective memory, it would seem to me that there was more talent especially on defense back then in the ACC. Off the top of my head, I would consider Miami, FSU, NC ST, North Carolina, and Virginia Tech as having relatively better teams then than now. Clemson...

There are a few power 5 teams that could do worse, a whole lot worse, than to hire someone like Monken and install the triple option. God knows, teams like Illinois, Vanderbilt, and Oregon State have tried everything else.

So? Heisman coached both football and baseball at Tech. Who knows? Coach Pastner might like the idea of wearing two hats so if he got fired at one job he would still have another one.

"Broken"? You want to see broken try the Tennessee website. One wise guy on there suggested that even Smokey the blue tick hound had decided to enter the portal.
