College football is wildly unpredictable, perhaps even more so in the first week of the season when P5 opponents match up. Week one match ups are almost like bowl games and we have all felt the frustration of trying to pick those right. Only a fool would PICK us to win straight up. Having said...

Hopefully a year in the strength program will have benefitted Charlie Thomas immensely. The kid can play and just needs to be more physical this year. There is no reason to doubt Juanyeh Thomas at this point. He will shine. Adonicas Sanders looked good in the spring game. I want to see what...

Who knows, maybe Bolt has terrible hands and could never catch a football. I guess he could still be a great safety. I would take a great athlete over a very strong person any day of the week and twice on Sunday. However, great athletes gaining strength is a very positive thing. Don't make too...

Paul Johnson presided over the most prolific era (10+ years) of GT offensive football, so there really is no logical complaint about recruiting on that side of the ball. We got who we needed to run our style of offense. The recruiting problem was finding guys to play DL, especially on the...

A few thoughts: I like the all gold look with white letters. I don't know why. Bottom line: I really don't care what we wear. Spring game was an infomercial, nothing more, and I am not saying there is anything wrong with that. The entire purpose was (or appeared to be) to show recruit-land that...

How many of us watched the State Championship game with Yates at the helm? I did. Although a single game is a small sample size, a state championship game is a little more telling than a routine game against an outclassed opponent. From my perspective, there is a heck of a lot to like. It looks...

I am sad to see PB go, for sure. However, I will stop short of even trying to guess as to the true reasons why. It would be presumptuous of me and it is truly none of my business anyway. In my view, PB is already a huge GT success story. He helped us win many football games, inspired those...

Calm down. The Patriots doubled up the Chiefs on first downs and number of offensive plays. They also nearly doubled them up on yards. The refs didn't do that. The picks kept it close, but it was the Pats game to lose. I'm awfully proud of both GT players who participated in the game. Shaq can...

I've seen the kid play twice now and he reminds me a lot of Tebow. They are very similar in the challenges they present. Tebow was a great decision maker, accurate enough, and more physical than pretty much any other QB in history, so is Ehlinger. Having an elusive QB as a dual threat is great...

It is interesting try to forecast what our offense will look like. Will Patenaude try to run what he always ran at other places, or will he take portions of it and try and fit it to what our kids can do while in transition? Personally, I hope it is the latter. Deep snaps don't worry me so much...

CPJ will deflect attention from the press after victory and say he is happy for the kids.

I’m biting. I don’t know why, but I am taking the bait. In the first place, you have to consider how star rankings are generated. Most likely they are a product of nerds compiling data over who is offering who and how many are chasing certain kids. When you think about how few 5 stars there...

Maybe, just maybe, we could whittle the field to 8 conference champions and let voters haggle over the two who get left out. Absolutely no "at large" entries. Teams like Notre Dunce can join a conference or pound sand.

Ditto on 10 conf champs only. All titles need to be decided on the field, not the voting booth. This isn't figure skating or diving. Let the voters seed the brackets. If you can't even win your conference, what realistic claim can you make for deserving a NATIONAL title? Honestly?! If a 7-5...

Maybe the coolest story of all time at TECH was how Tony Hollings came out of NOWHERE, buried in depth chart at DB, to become the most impactful RB we have seen in my fandom on the flats. Hopefully, we will have some pleasant surprises.

This sounds like a fun thread. I just wish I knew what type of scheme we were trying to run. First off, let me say, I think we will be fine on offense, so long as we don't hard headily decide to go I formation and statue QB with no option principles to speak of. In my mind, that would a 3 year...

The injuries in 2015 were horrific. However, my mind always wanders back to the games we were in position to win, despite those injuries, and just blew it. UNC for example, up three TDs, dropped an easy pick 6 to go up more, turned the ball over in our own end etc etc. It was a tough year all...

It's funny. I was anticipating 2019 as being a great offensive year for GT football (b4 the retirement). There will be offensive talent ready for use. As long as we run stuff that take advantage of our kids abilities, I think we will be OK, despite CPJ moving on. Defense should be interesting...

For me, there is no real bottom line here. The sample size is too small to draw any sweeping conclusions. TSTAN believes in him. That is all that counts. Let's give him our support.

Absolutely that stance is disadvantageous to pass blocking, in a traditional sense. So were the splits. Nobody else would do it. We did it because 80% of the time we threw the ball was off play action. Gotta sell the run in order to throw in our old offense.
