    What Was The Best Part of The 2020-21 Football Season?

    Last night was the crowning blow to a truly crap football season for any Georgia Tech football fan. It highlighted just how far away we are from where we want to be. I probably will not live long enough to see us climb that mountain. We just have to hope somebody lights a fire down there on...

    Can we stay competitive in the NIL era?

    Instead of throwing out hands up and moaning, "Woah is me", we should be leading the charge in this area. We have numerous wealthy alumni who could generate the resources necessary to build a best-in-class pipeline of funding to buy the talent to compete with anyone. This is far more important...

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    He will be just one of many at Alabama. He had the spotlight at Tech. Will be interesting to see how this turns out for him. Go Jackets!

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Don't fight it, love it, embrace it, use it! We need to be leading edge and exploit the pure T crap out of the Portal. Separate the wheat from the chafe. Push the chafe out. Find the winners, recruit them hard and pay them well. Screw branding, build the best program money can buy. Go Jackets!

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    The portal is an easy way for the coaching staff to encourage those players who they deem as non-contributors to Hit the Bricks. Occasionally a really good player will get pissed and leave thinking they can improve their lot somewhere else but the vast majority of these portal guys, I would say...

    Mostly “Fire Geoff Collins”, some reminiscing, maybe bourbon or other distractions

    Yeah, he rambles on and compliments everything and everybody. He is just too damn nice to be our Head Football Coach. He is thin-skinned and will not provide a direct answer to a question because he thinks he might hurt someone's feelings. It's hard to take him seriously because frankly he is...

    RIP Demaryius Thomas

    So sorry to hear about Demaryius passing away way too young. He was one of my favorite Yellow Jackets in the modern era. To me he was right there with Calvin as one of the best receivers ever to play the game. From such humble beginnings to great achievement. His life story, though short...

    Roof to Oklahoma

    Yeah, Ted was a warrior as a middle linebacker, team captain, and leader of the Black Watch defense. I wish him the best and hope he achieves great things unless Oklahoma plays my Yellow Jackets. One of my favorite all-time Georgia Tech men as a player and a coach. A better coach than some...

    Really good coach. Will have a quality team within a couple of years. Go Jackets!

    Dear Coach Collins and Todd Stansbury

    If Collins could have fixed our defense he would have already done it.

    Griffin is NOT now in the portal

    We can go 3 and 9 without him.

    Venable to Oklahoma as new HC

    In my opinion, Venables is a lifer coordinator and not head coaching material. I don't think things will work out well for OU with him. They should have gone after Huepel or Mark Stoops. Go Jackets!

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    No one can know the future. Gibbs gave us 2 years and will give his next stop one. ( I think it is clear his goal is to go pro as soon as possible) He was hurt both seasons with us and that trend tends to follow players. So while it is possible he goes to Alabama or Southern Cal and wins the...

    SECCG - Ambivalence, I have arrived - my hate rant

    Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. I know they smoked us but it does my heart good to see so many of their followers threatening to jump off the building. Go Jackets!

    GT Legend Dan Radakovich to be next Miami AD

    He went to Miami on vacation and just thought, "Why the hell am I living in podunk, SC when I could be down here basking in the sun, sipping on a drink with an umbrella in it and admiring the local scenery". That and some additional cold hard cash makes it a no brainer.

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Yeah this is the new era of college football. Like Baseball, you look up and there is a new lineup taking the field. Go Jackets!

    Now BRONCO? WTH, Coastal?

    Glad to see Bronco go. He was a pretty solid coach and seemed to have our number. Go Jackets!
