  1. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    This exactly. The ACC has no one advocating for them whcih is why we get dumped on, ala FSU. And when a team calls it out, ala FSU and Clemson, instead of applauding them the other ACC teams fight them. It’s a joke and the ACC deserves this slow death.
  2. Conference Realignment

    Totally disagree. Sankey would have had a major press conference with every ACC AD standing behind him and would have railed against his undefeated conference champ being left out. You know? Because we all knew it was coming and Sankey would have been prepared with his response. What we got...
  3. Conference Realignment

    I didn’t know we were talking 40 years ago. I’ll amend my statement then - the last 15 years the ACC leadership has done nothing to push the ACC forward. In fact, they have gotten out hustled at every turn by those leaders who think about the future and not the present. I’m not that mad at...
  4. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    And that’s great. I’m just tired of reading from our fans that they are going to give up the sport they’ve loved for decades because they have some “days of old” perception in their minds that don’t line up with today’s game. To me, college football in its ”intent” has been dead for at least...
  5. Conference Realignment

    Yeti, the answer is obvious. The only thing ACC leadership has done in a long time has been to sue its own members. That’s where we are. We do nothing about the BIG/SEC/ESPN triumvirate, but we go all Rambo on our own members. It’s just funny at this point. All you can do is sit back and...
  6. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    What are you talking about? I went to GT and my kids go to GT. That’s why I root for GT. I don’t root for players, I root for the jersey and the team. At the end of the game the scoreboard doesn’t say - Haynes King 27 Duke 10. It says GT. I don’t care if GT’s QB transferred in from Texas...
  7. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    I am watching pro ball. Do regular students have a special admit procedure? Or cafeteria? Or individual tutors? Or free gear? Or NIL money? Listen, I wish it was the 1950’s again and we could all leave our screen doors unlocked and every player fought for love of school. But, after I’ve...
  8. Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    Great. Now win games because no one comes to campus to watch a player take tests. You guys who still believe in terms like “student-athletes” should rejoice. For the other 99.9% of fans, we could care less what a player does with his life other than 12-15 game days each year. That may sound...
  9. 2024 Schedule Difficulty - Projections per CFN

    Impressive to who? FSU just went undefeated and the entire nation yawned and laughed including many GT fans on this board. GT could go 10-2 and no one will give us two thoughts. Until we do it for several years no one care and even then the6 won’t because the ACC, proven by the committee, is...
  10. Conference Realignment

    Just be ready to be shocked then. Just because some schools passed up opportunities to join a better conference doesn’t mean others will. The ACC as you perceive it only exists in your head.
  11. I'm starting to hate FSU fans.

    In the ranking of hate FSU doesn’t crack my top 20. They’ve never done anything against GT for me to hate them. In fact, they’ve given GT some of our biggest wins in our history
  12. NIL to High Schoolers

    Why is it scary? I see absolutely nothing wrong with it because it’s been happening for years and we live in a free country where people are allowed to move. The only thing that has changed is that it’s reported in the media and now people pretend to be shocked. Every powerful school in any...
  13. Conference Realignment

    When did I say BIG coaches aren’t poachable? Tell me the last time GT poached a coach? You can’t because we have never poached a coach because we are a cash poor school. Louisville wants to win and Brohm is an alum so that lined up (And he did beat us in his first game so I’d say Louisville...
  14. Conference Realignment

    To equate Maryland with GT is laughable. Maryland is in a stable, money producing conference in a part of the country that could care less about college football. Yet they have been above .500 with three bowl wins in a row. As mentioned, all their other sports programs have been stabilized...
  15. Bobby Dodd Renovation in the NE Stands

    Peter’s Parking deck is on limited time. In case you have not noticed several areas of campus that use to be accessible by cars are no longer. They are currently adding bike lanes all over campus. Eventually Peters will be converted to either a building or buildings or a true park. Parking...
  16. Time for the NCAA to give GT Football our ACC trophy back

    I like the sentiment, but we don’t have anyone with the balls to hang the banner back up so I doubt we even ask. JBatt should have hung it back up last year.
  17. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    The player talent has been upgraded tremendously since our season ended. We will now have a roster full of players who can score, rebound, and play defense. That’s what we’ve had when we made our tourney runs. The days of having a bunch of “role” types are over. Sure, the guys have to play...
  18. 2024 Football Portal

    FSU will be a tough game and I would favor them to win right now until GT shows we can win these type of games. This game is more about GT. We’ve had a handful of games since the 1990 season that could have changed our program trajectory. The first was Penn State. We looked awful and...
