    Really sorry for double posting if someone already posted this video. I thought it was a pretty interesting breakdown of how we dominated the LOS on offense. I am not now nor have I ever been a football coach and I have no idea if it's accurate or not. But it was cool to see how he broke down...

    Yes they made that clear at the beginning of the podcast.

    I didn’t say we pass block as well as we run block. I said his assessment of why our game plan was run heavy was not because we are bad at pass blocking. You’re absolutely right that King avoids sacks quite well. He did a great job of that on one of the third down plays when, I think, their DE...

    I thought that Brian Smith dude was full of crap, myself. the reason we didn't pass as much wasn't because our pass blocking was bad it was because our coaches knew we could attack their front seven with our OL/TE/RB/QB rather than challenge their actual good players in the secondary plus that...

    I know I’m not the first person to say this but can you imagine the marketing opportunity to bring him and Roman Reigns, aka Joe Anoa’i, to a GT home game together?

    It’s funny how people say “bunch of nerds” as if we take that as an insult 😂

    Completely! And Singleton is tougher than outsiders give him credit for. Many out there seem to think he’s a speedster, and he does have terrific speed. But he also does the dirty work and gets tough yards in a MUST HAVE situation.

    BTW how long has it been since you can say every player was solid to great yesterday. Yes there’s lots of work to do and nobody played a perfect game. But everyone just went out and did their job at a high level.

    Listened to Barrett Sallee and Tom Luginbill on SiriusXM a bit ago and they were both talking about seeing the GT players up close over in Dublin and Luginbill when he visited GT earlier this month. They both said that the GT players looked the part. They were every bit as big as the FSU players...

    I’ll take a tough, fundamentally sound team every day over fancy and glamorous. I grew up in the DC area when The Hogs were just as much the faces of the Washington team as anyone else. We appreciated and LOVED that that was the identity of the team. A good OL makes everyone else on an offense...

    I get why people don’t like him. He’s a blowhard among other things. And apparently that appeals to a large segment of the population. He’s not afraid to say and do stupid things because, as PT Barnum once said “there’s no such thing as bad press” and Oscar Wilde said “There’s only one thing in...

    New recruit Petty $800,000 per year NIL

    BTW when I said that there's very little similarity to my daughter and the players despite both being on scholarship was 100% meant to indicate that there are a LOT more requirements besides going to class and doing schoolwork put on the players that are NOT put on my daughter. I know this...

    New recruit Petty $800,000 per year NIL

    My daughter is a full time student at Georgia Tech. She sometimes has classes with athletes. There’s very little similarity between them despite both being on scholarship.

    New recruit Petty $800,000 per year NIL

    It's not meant as an analog. It's meant to say we pay a lot for entertainment. Sports is entertainment. The dollar figures involved are astronomical. And now the college athletes are some of the ones getting some of that money. No analogy at all intended. The money is coming from how much...

    New recruit Petty $800,000 per year NIL

    You and all the rest of us have made it very clear for many years that we will pay a lot of money for entertainment. Not necessarily individually (I’m not accusing anyone of having skewed values so please don’t take it as such). But as a whole we pay for cable, we apparently watch enough...

    Bark Madly Picks

    My dislike of him stems back to his being openly antagonistic towards Bobby Cremins and writing in depth opinion pieces on games he didn't watch. This is not hearsay. I watched him do it while I was a member of The Technique sports staff. I remember sitting at the press desk looking over and...

    No GT Players selected for Preseason All ACC Team

    I look at it slightly differently. I look at it as disbelief rather than disrespect. There’s no doubt our guys had a great year offensively last season. And that was the first time in over a decade our offense was both really good and something most people like. I suspect a lot of “voters” don’t...
