    Your choice for Head Coach

    I understand that this is all in good fun. However, let's not pretend this is some easy decision. I don't envy J at all given that his tenure is going to be judged by this one hire pretty much the same as Stansbury was with the CGC hire. Our choice or want has zero risk; if our individual...

    POSTGAME #GTvsVT GT 28-VT 27

    We gave up a punt return touchdown and a pick six and still got the first fourth win of the season since 2018 with our backup true freshman quarterback and an interim head coach? That's something. I'm not going to nitpick about how we won. We won even with the deck stacked against us. Coaches...

    Or someone just forgot to adjust it. Who that someone is? Idk.

    Editing time limit

    I think 20 minutes is reasonable. I believe current time limit is 10 minutes. So I'll adjust this soon unless any mods want to veto.

    HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    There was a documentary, I believe I may have seen it on hbo max, where Belichick gets invited to Nick Saban's house and they talk about the game. I remember Saban saying something like how the biggest hurdle for him and his coaches is trying to get a bunch of guys right out of high school to...

    Editing time limit

    Moved this to the lounge as I'd prefer to not make the original thread into a general suggestion thread. There is a reason why this is limited. Folks shouldn't be able to change their past posts indefinitely. If you think you'll need to update a post later then the prudent thing to do is to...

    Coach Brent Key Scenario

    CBK has the keys to his own career growth at this point and he's trying out for the job. If he can turn this season around under these circumstances, he should be a fair contender for the job imho. I'm afraid things are stacked against him though; the challenge in front of CBK I believe is...

    Week 5 #GTvsPITT Postgame Presser

    We must've had a decent game if all we have to complain about after is the post-game presser audio. :buzz:

    HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    Late to the Sanders interview discussion by a day but did his response about possibly going to GT rub anyone the wrong way? Seems like we would have to overpay (not just monetarily) to get him here.

    Forum Tip - How to use the ignore feature to make your time on GTSwarm more enjoyable.

    Going to go out on a limb and say that the select few this message is intended for would never use the ignore feature because they actually and secretly like endlessly arguing on the internet. Prove me wrong you few. :sneaky:

    What"s this? Vad Lee was a dual threat QB all along ?

    I was always curious how much of this was Vad and how much of it was who had his ears.

    Retiring as a mod

    Thank you so much for all the time you've spent helping this community. If only I could quantify the number of hours you and the other moderators spend here mostly behind the scenes, it still wouldn't justify the huge paycheck ($0) that we send out. ;)

    #UNCvsGT Postgame

    Happy for the team and the fans. A win like this should help unify our fanbase which I think our team really needs. Speaking of unify, we ran a ton of option plays with Sims; the zone read variety instead of the flexbone but still based on QB making a read to give or keep. The keeper...

    Anyone watching Coastal Carolina tonight?

    Strictly speaking about X's and O's, what do you see that CC is doing well that we didn't particularly do consistently well during CPJ's tenure? For folks that weren't a fan of Coach Johnson, we all get it. I'd prefer not to turn this thread into one of those discussions.

    What does it say about the GTSwarm Community...

    First of all, this isn't all on Cuse. Second and most importantly, are you: We could use more writers.

    Game 2 #KSUvsGT Media

    As a head coach, in a press conference, who are you catering your message to? The press? The fans? Your players? Recruits? Your staff? Your boss/AD? Probably all of the above in some way and the head coach has to walk the tight rope between what he says out in public and what he says...

    My 2 cents

    @TooTall thank you for taking the time to write this up. I always enjoy reading these in-depth game analysis that's not just a knee-jerk reaction to a loss. For anyone that is thinking about replying in this thread, if all you are going to post about is demanding coaching changes or...

    Mostly “Fire Geoff Collins”, some reminiscing, maybe bourbon or other distractions

    And they are allowed to just as long as they don't turn their criticism into personal attacks. It's inevitable for the "I told you so" fans to come out. It's really easy to type that out on the internet. This is one of the reasons why I was curious if anyone here thinks Stansbury would/could...

    Mostly “Fire Geoff Collins”, some reminiscing, maybe bourbon or other distractions

    Eh, calling this out as weak. What I hated the most during the CPJ era are all the anti-CPJ folks coming out of the woodwork gloating after a tough loss. I don't know about anyone else but I can't just cut off my being a GT fan because of who the basketball or football coach is.
