I watched that interview but I have a confession to make. I am one who cannot avert my eyes from a car wreck when I drive past one on the highway. One of my best friends and I go back 40 years. We worked together for almost 20 and spent another 10 in the same industry. We have seen a number of...

I think GT is actually a relatively easy job for a coach vs. Bama and a few other schools all things considered (especially now with P AC and AD JB). That's either in spite of the recruiting challenges (narrow curriculum) or because of them (GT fan base for the most part acknowledges them and...

IMO, the greatest piece of karma or irony in the whole "grass is always greener on the other side of the fence" is the Bill Curry move to Bama to have a better chance of winning NC's. Apparently under the advice of Coach Dodd. A few years down the road, Curry gets run out of town and his...

There are also places where you can do that for free as well!

I argue it is the second biggest reason TechPhi. First would be losing. ;)

I remain hopeful that GT under Key and with top down support will return to a place where we are, at a bare minimum, competent in all 3 phases simultaneously. This is not a place where we have been (with the possible exception of a random outlier here or there) very often in the modern era and...

That is what the smart guys do. Or else the ones who hire smart agents. However, something tells me that maybe Bama did not or does not put an idiot in charge of the athletics department....a mistake I have seen an unnamed "world class" school in Atlanta do. Multiple times unfortunately.

I want to be considerate of your feelings and all of that so I am a bit unsure how to phrase my response. But with that being said, people who are used to REALLY nice things aren't shopping based on price. That's what we who post on message boards do. So your price tag has eliminated you from...

All of us over a certain age have seen this movie before. the right move is to replace the guy who replaced the GUY. I would sit this out as it is a no-win situation unless you are strictly motivated by the bottom line. OTOH, anyone in the conversation to replace the GOAT is already set up...

Welcome aboard. As you are a parent of a current player, I would like to point out in advance that, despite what you read and see posted on this board, GT is a tremendous academic school and your son will benefit from it throughout his entire life. And during FB season, bear in mind we have way...

It came from UNLV's Academic Success Center??? There is a lot to umpack there. Wonder if that place was a viable entity when Tark the Shark was the head BB coach? ;)

Wouldn't that in turn imply that he already has his DC on staff??

I think this goes hand in hand with our recruiting. We do not get the blue chip DL (or other positions as well) that can step in and make an impact early. We do however get solid 3* stars who usually can and will mature into productive players given enough time. Douse was progressively getting...

I know the football prognosticators are unlikely to take patterns of mid to late season swoons into consideration when making preseason polls. See the U and UNC as examples. Do the baseball writers do the same? I.E, is the Tech program always ranked higher earlier than postseason data would...

i have learned that bowl games are significant competitive events to exactly half the teams that play them and meaningless exhibition games for the other 50%. Tell me your favorite team and I can probably figure how you as a fan stand on the issue. At least for this year. ;)

Nothing more than feelings.

I am not either but I would hope my coworkers, family, spouse and dog would have more to say about me other than " at least he ain't MoBS". I think my work is acceptable, my manners are okay and personal hygiene is at least at minimally acceptable standards (I think.) ;)

Two comments. First, you sound like a rational and logical person who has managed other people to achieve goals. Lastly, the above doesn't sound like it's is very cool, sexy or fun...sounds like too muck work for my taste. ;)

I have struggled with what to say when first reading the OP. This summarizes my thoughts as well. We are deeply saddened by your loss.

I'm wondering if the good folks in Chapel Hill are going to take the lazy route and plagiarize our nicknames for their new DC or will they put in the work and come up with their own??
