  1. Portal Performance at GT

    I agree with you jacketup, the expectations for grad transfers and FR transfers are different. But at the same time, you go to the portal hoping to get a little more of an immediate boost. Also, injuries are going to happen whether kids are coming from HS or through the portal -that is simply...
  2. HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    Everything from that Tulane recap makes sense to me. Fans thinking GT is going to get a HC for a low price and/or few years are sadly off base in terms of what the market for coaches look like at a P5 level. We had 3 coaches come into the ACC last year. Brent Pry's contract at VT was for 6...
  3. Portal Performance at GT

    Here is the performance for each player brought in through the Portal the last 2 seasons. If a player appeared in both the 2021 and 2022 seasons their stats for each season are shown. 2021 B. Cimaglia - K - 10 games, 10 starts, 11-15 FG (11-11 < 40 yds), 31-33 XP K. McGowan - WR - 11 games, 10...
  4. HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    I think this is a really important point that alot of GT fans just like to pretend isn't true. While there are only 69 P5 jobs, GT is not a highly attractive job within those 69. GT is the smallest public school in the P5 and the 12th smallest overall in terms of undergraduate enrollment. It...

  6. HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    My main goal is to get the best coach you believe you can get, who you think can win the most games for you. That means you have to understand who is interested in your job, and who you can afford. I don't know whether Fritz will succeed but I plan to support him. If you compare his tenure at...
  7. #GTvsUNC Postgame GT 21 - UNC 17

    I'd also like to commend Key and his staff on 2 other items. First, this will be the 3rd win by Key's program over a team that will finish the season with a winning record. That is 3 more than Collins managed in 3+ years. Second, this is Key's 3rd road win, which matches how many road wins...
  8. #GTvsUNC Postgame GT 21 - UNC 17

    Great win! That may be the best coached game I've seen from GT in at least 5 years. Both coordinators had good game plans and after slow starts , just stuck with them and eventually they really worked out. Lady luck was shining on us when downs dropped that TD pass. The odds of that happening...

  10. UNC expected to win by 21 points

    Here is the advanced stats preview from FromtheRumbleSeat. https://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/2022/11/17/23462980/georgia-tech-football-gt-vs-unc-advanced-stats-preview Even though UNC's defense is bad, our offense is even worse - GT with the advantage in just 3 of 11 categories (and one of...
  11. How long?

    I would hope for a bowl game by year 2 and expect it by year 3. I believe the portal is being way overrated in terms of what it can provide. It is good for adding talent at the margins, but it isn't going to provide a huge lift in talent unless you have the money to buy that talent (even then...
  12. Jeff Sims - Not practicing with team - in rehab

    I think Sims has been the best QB we have had for the last 4 years, for whatever that is worth. I think the offense this year has been hurt by a talent drain at OL, RB and WR. I think any QB is going to struggle to score with this current personnel. FWIW, here are his parents tweets from the...
  13. Drake Maye

    Maye has had arguably the best year of any QB in the country as a R-FR. 253-361 (70%), 3,412 yds passing with 34 TD's and 3 INT's. 583 yds rushing on 113 attempts (739 gain - 155 loss) 5 TD's with a long run of 42 yds. We need UNC to be very TO prone on Saturday and they haven't been this...
  14. Taisun Phommachanh question

    What I had heard when he transferred in was that he was seen as a 'developmental' QB, not really ready to play. Someone more likely to hold a clipboard and add another body to the QB room than someone that was expected to be able to play. Now the Collins staff has a reputation among other...
  15. Ranking College Football’s Open Head Football Coaching Jobs for 2022-2023

    Other than switching Neb and WI i'd likely list the currently open jobs in the same order. You can make an argument for GT above AZ ST, but there are sort of in a tier together and their lists will be different.
  16. ACC Discussion 2022

    I agree with Oriental, the number of teams who are still really alive to get bids is quite small. If TCU loses at some point then I think there is a real potential it could be UGA, TN, OSU, MI. If UGA goes into the SEC CG undefeated they will get a bid no matter what happens in that game. Now...
  17. HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    Part of the rationale for Mullen's departure at FL was that he didn't like to recruit. I seriously doubt Deion is interested in us, but would be happy to be wrong. We recruited better under Collins than before, but it wasn't hugely better and then alot of the best talent left. On offense in...
  18. TECH VS MIAMI POSTGAME

    Keep in mind what 'in case of emergency' means. Generally that means the player plays only if there are no other players available to play at that position. That wasn't the case yesterday. There were still 2 healthy QB's on the roster who could play. I thought the OL had one of its better...
  19. HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    Fans need to keep in mind, it isn't about who they think GT should hire - it is about who is interested in being hired by GT. Those are generally 2 very different things for most fanbases. If GT makes a 'ho-hum' hire, it may not be because that is who GT targeted, it may be that is who GT can get.
  20. TECH VS MIAMI POSTGAME

    I'm disappointed but have sort of been waiting for the TO game all year. I don't care who you are, pretty much every program has at least 1 game where they get really TO prone. Today was GT's turn. Pyron didn't play as well as he had previously, that shouldn't be surprising either , he is a...
