I was at the game on Nov 15, 1969 against #9 Notre Dame, possibly the first fish tossing. Tech QB's Jack Williams and Charlie Dudish, RB Brent Cuningham and All American DT Rock Perdoni vs ND QB Joe Theisman and All American DT Mike McCoy. A great game with ND over GT 38-20. I could not tell...
With respect to others' opinions on the faking of injuries to break momentum or get a rest for defensive team, I maintain the opinion of Coach Alexander's "Code of a good spirit" of what a Georgia Tech athlete should that was written in the 1926 Blueprint. Two years later, Tech won their 2nd...
Karen, I posted the pictures of the entire Rice family. Thank you. Let's all pray for the folks in the path of Hurricane Milton. Karen and Homer have a condo on Marco Island FL in the South side of projected landfall path. Homer and Karen enjoyed winters in Marco Island. I also have a very...
The picture you mentioned is of Homer's wife Karen and her children visiting the Dr. Homer Rice Academic Center. Below is a picture of Homer's blended family at the HOF ring ceremony with Karen's children on her right from her first husband Stephen Allen, who passed away in 1990. Karen's...
The Rice family shared these pictures with me to share with the Swarm fans. Dr. Rice's legacy is honored by the naming of the Dr. Homer Rice Academic Center in the Wardlaw Building in the South end zone. The National Football Foundation Leadership Hall of Fame ring that was presented to his...
During the Duke Game, The Rice family was presented the ring recognizing Coach Homer Rice's posthumous induction into the National Football Foundation Leadership award. A commemoration dinner was held Friday evening at the Georgia Tech Hotel conference center...
Thank you for asking GT33. When I learned before midnight last Thursday that the hurricane was turning eastward and not hit Tallahassee and then the farm in south Georgia, I took off to my primary home in Augusta, which was predicted to be in the new path. The drive was not too bad going up I...
My pecan farm north 25 miles of Tallahassee will take a hammering again, probably worse that Michael. The trees are loaded with nuts but still in the green hull, all likely to be blown out the trees and many trees may fall. With the large number of mobile homes in Grady county, casualties are...
I took the train I visited my brother in Nashville in the summer of 1967. He drove us back home to southwest Georgia in his 1957 Chevy Bel Air. The brakes failed when we were on Monteagle Mountain and we had to take a runaway ramp to stop it. Since he was a student at the Nashville diesel...
This is my personal opinion about the lawsuit and college athletics in general. If this case is actually settled, each of the14,500 plaintiff NCAA student athletes since June 2016 gets $125,000, a years salary after taxes (~$90,000) for a new GT graduate. All the thousands of athletes before...
Agree wholeheartedly. And it was very respectful and showed good sportsmanship that the two head coaches agreed to play the two quarters after halftime at 10 minutes each, so I was told by a suite owner in the South end zone. As a military retiree, I have lots of respect for VMI, a 1,600...
Ramble, you make a good point if that decision on which post season tournament was made today. But things were different back then when the NIT competitive with the NCAA tournament relative to talent. Then there were 25 teams in the NCAA tournament and 16 in the NIT, with the top 41 teams...
Maybe this is why things are the way they are? GTAA contracted out almost everything related to fan satisfaction, ticket sales and game day activities to Legends, Inc. in 2020 through 2031. https://www.legends.net/...
