    Conference Realignment

    Reportedly, the SEC did not add a 9th conference game because ESPN told them they would not pay additional money for the 9th game. The SEC tried to squeeze more money out of ESPN for having an additional conference game. It was about money. Money is already prevailing.

    Conference Realignment

    Did they agree with GT to pay his buyout, or was money for the buyout part of O'Leary's contract? If I remember correctly, ND did pay O'Leary $1.5 million, which he could have used to pay the buyout to GT. I don't think it would have made it to a trial if there wasn't a signed contract from ND...

    Conference Realignment

    There is a difference between being contractually obligated and being forced to. ND can break the contract and do whatever they want to do. They would be open to a lawsuit and monetary damages for breaking the contract, but they can do it. I think a lot of people miss the difference between...

    Conference Realignment

    The GOR only includes non-football sports for ND. ND could leave the conference and have football included in the BIG10. They would have to negotiate for the other sports, or just allow the ACC to televise them until 2036. ND would be breaking the contract with the ACC if they join a...

    Pray for the panhandle, S GA

    It looks like Atlanta dodged the bullet with this one. Thoughts and prayers to those in the Florida panhandle, and South, central, and Eastern GA.

    Pray for the panhandle, S GA

    Sorry for you expected economic loss. I don't know much about hurricanes, and I know nothing about building standards and requirements in Florida, Georgia, nor the differences between them. I suspect that Georgia's standards are less strict with regard to wind ratings. It looks like the...

    Quinlan and Wrecktalk verbally slap fighting

    I am incorrect? Where in the KQ video did he say anything about WT? Where in the KQ video did he call WT names? Where in the KQ video did he accuse WT of harassment? What exactly is my post incorrect about? I am not going to watch the WT videos. I am watching and reading GT news not "Real...

    Pray for the panhandle, S GA

    It appears that it is going to be bad in the panhandle and South Georgia. It also looks like it is going to be bad in Northern and Northwestern GA. Potentially still tropical storm passing through Atlanta with 8-10" or rain? The ground is wet from the system today. There could be many...

    A few things.

    Another thing: In my opinion Haynes hasn't been cutting the same the last couple of games. Against FSU he would run and hit open holes fast. He ran left a couple of times, planted his outside foot and started running back to the right. He hasn't done that in the last couple of games. I...

    Louisville Postgame

    I wasn't referring to you. Your first post in the thread, the OP, was that we beat them in the stats but two TOs resulted in the loss. There are plenty of people on this forum claiming that the sky is falling.

    Louisville Postgame

    I understood from this thread that the DL cannot get any pressure on the QB, that the DBs let the receivers run freely to catch balls anywhere/anytime they want, and that the LBs can't stop the run and can't cover anyone. From reading this thread, the defense played so horribly that we should...

    Louisville Postgame

    And even with all of the concern that people are expressing about the defense, they only gave up 326 yards in the entire game. With the way people are talking, I would think they gave up 600 in the air and 300 on the ground.

    Or somebody else created the account. Or WT created the account to try to throw more shade. Why does this matter at all? I haven't seen any tweets from KQ about this. Only one side is being petty.

    A few things.

    Maybe that is just more frustrating for fans? Losing to ND 55-0, everybody in the stands around me knew by the end of the first quarter that there was zero chance in the game. Probably most didn't believe there was any shot before getting to the game. There were loud screams about TFG, and...

    Louisville Postgame

    From the stats, the team played well overall. Made too many mistakes and that cost the game. Take out the mistakes and it is a 7-14 point win. I am not super negative. Eliminate mistakes and clean a few things up and GT will look like a very good team.

    He went to the cesspool. I think he has said on one of his podcasts that he is a TX fan instead of a mutt fan.

    TN to add 'talent fee' to all tickets

    I have seen multiple people predicting a 50-80 team super league. I think that is actually a reasonable number. In the past 20-30 years there have been a large number of D2 teams that move to FCS, and a large number of FCS teams that have moved to FBS. I haven't looked at actual numbers, but...

    Quinlan and Wrecktalk verbally slap fighting

    He does want subscribers. Much like the Athletic, or AJC trying to get subscribers with headlines. I was referring to his coverage of GT. He isn't a "fan boy" writing about how great everything about GT is. He says things from an objective standpoint. Fan boys usually overlook problems and...

    Quinlan and Wrecktalk verbally slap fighting

    The only objective GT reporters that I know about are KQ, Rod at 247, and Chad at the AJC. I think the Athletic had someone, but I understood they don't any more. Maybe I am wrong. Does anyone know of any others?
