  1. New recruit Petty $800,000 per year NIL

    It hasn’t been “college” football in decades. Maybe this will finally disgust enough people to open their eyes that a lot of players in football, basketball, and baseball should have never been accepted as a student. I love that the tipping point has finally been reached where the players have...
  2. Local Atl Media

    GT should have gone private years ago. Eventually we will.
  3. OL Discussion

    The entire season rests on the performance of the OLine. Skilled positions are a dime a dozen and we have several adequate QB’s. But, if the OLine isn’t ready we’ll lose a lot of games. Don’t get me wrong, I love Jamaal and King and our WR’s, but I’ve seen good QB’s look horrible behind a bad...
  4. Conference Realignment

    You’re right. The ACC is just fine how it is. The leadership we have promotes all teams and pushes us to greatness with each passing day. I look forward to watching our 3-4 teams co Pete in the playoff system. It will be a month long commercial for the ACC. Long live Phillips and his...
  5. Conference Realignment

    And those fans would travel anywhere including to Bobby Dodd. What did the average GT fan gain from missing a home game? How many sidewalk fans did we gain in Dublin? This is what is wrong with the ACC. We are snobs who think we are better than everyone so of course our hard core 15,000 fans...
  6. Conference Realignment

    Again, actions, not words. Sankey hasn’t done it because he knows it’s a stupid business decision regardless of the garbage he patronizes the media with. He certainly didn’t put the LSU/USC game in Ireland. He put it in Vegas because he knows what fans want. And fans love what? I certainly...
  7. Conference Realignment

    It’s leadership at the ACC. This lack of leadership allows mediocrity to thrive. The ACC is a boatload of mediocrity right now. Strong leadership creates a positive working environment. What happened to FSU being left out on Phillips watch is just the icing on the cake. And everyone...
  8. Conference Realignment

    But again, why are you bringing up FSU and Clemson and not the other 12 schools who do nothing year after year? Sure, FSU had a few down years after Bowden just like most schools do after they lose a Hall of Famer (see GT) and Dabo is going thru a rough patch (if you call 9-4 a rough patch)...
  9. Conference Realignment

    I just find it hilarious that anyone would suggest that the ACC‘s reputation has fallen because of anything FSU has done. How about the ACC’s reputation has fallen into the gutter because there are not enough teams that care or make smart decisions. GT is example 1- we pushed a Hall of Fame...
  10. Conference Realignment

    You got me Augusta. I now agree that the ACC has become a joke of a conference because of FSU. It’s all FSU’s fault. If only FSU would have won more than 16 out of 32 conference titles since they joined the ACC we‘d be right up there with the SEC and BIG. I say we sue them for false...
  11. Conference Realignment

    So a team that cut its budget went undefeated and won the conference. What an indictment of this conference. No wonder it’s in its last stages and teams want to leave.
  12. Conference Realignment

    I have no ties and no influence with them. I’m just a GT fan on a message board. They will do whatever they want and I’ll live with it. But, since we have this platform of discussion and opinion I’ll keep giving mine. And if FSU is cutting their investment in their athletics, I’d hate see...
  13. Conference Realignment

    It‘s your first line. You said, and I quote, “It’s an established fact that FSU stopped investing in its athletic program”. That’s what you said. I didn’t make that up. I even re-quoted it. As to the bigger point, if the ACC front office is living off 1 team in football and Duke/Carolina...
  14. Conference Realignment

    So the ACC has fallen because FSU (who just went undefeated in ACC play) stopped investing in athletics? Good gracious do you not understand how silly that sounds? The ACC has fallen to a 3rd tier conference because the leadership lacked vision and a plan over a multi decade time period. The...
  15. Conference Realignment

    And there it is - the usual accepting of excuses by ACC fans. The ACC leadership is mediocre to poor because the ACC fans accept it so there is zero urgency. Meanwhile, Sankey sees that Florida is down, Saban was getting old, and Auburn, A&M, Tenn, and others are in the forever mid level tier...
  16. Conference Realignment

    This is the entire crux of everything. Great leadership vs. Poor leadership. That’s what it all comes down too.
  17. Conference Realignment

    I simply hope many of you are fine with a 10-2 GT being left out then once the committee gives their soliloquy on why a 9-3 BIG team gets over us. I‘m sure you’ll just move on like you expected FSU too. Forensic - I hear you. I just think people in positions like Phillips should stay above...
  18. Conference Realignment

    I see your side. But the only grown men in a real power position is Phillips and he is acting very petulant. He’s the freaking commissioner not some random yahoo or lawyer from FSU or Clemson. You don’t see Sankey responding to trolls from Mississippi St or Vandy do you? If the GOR is so...
  19. Conference Realignment

    Yeah, I know. I just want real leadership and that involves being professional. Right now, FSU and Clemson have not left the conference. Sure, are they exploring their options? Of course, so what. GT is probably exploring leaving as well. But neither have done a thing yet. They are still...
  20. Conference Realignment

    What you guys don’t get is Phillips is the commissioner for FSU and Clemson. That his leadership has led to all the dirty laundry being aired in full view is on him. The SEC and BIG conference teams all don’t get along and have bitter decades old grudges, yet their commissioners are true...
