My opinion is that this will never go to Jan 1st. Assuming this year contains alot more losing, then I expect he will be gone shortly after the UGA game. You simply offer him some money above what he would be payed in December - $275K to leave a month early. So offer him $500-600K to agree to...

It goes above the current AD. It goes to 20 years of bad financial decisions. This is a couple of years ago, but the situation isn't really that different and it is why the 2020 campaign was so important. We still have over $300MM in debt to deal with - including a big payment in 2023 (likely a...

IMO this year is already a sunk cost. So while I want a coaching change, i'm willing to wait until the season concludes for that to happen (I don't feel like it is worth $3.3MM for a cash strapped AA to remove the coach with 66 days left). GT AA's issues run much deeper - basically going back...

I would love either Caldwell or Leipold. That said, I think fans need to understand what a huge rebuild this is going to be. Frankly, we likely have a larger rebuild in front of us than the rebuild CGC had to undertake. I still these quotes are very telling. "They've recruited a bunch of guys...

I always enjoy these articles every year. Ask 100 basketball coaches their thoughts on various topics. The most recent one is whether NIL is helping or hurting college athletics. This one is 61 hurting 39 helping...

I expect that GT would negotiate to have him removed before Jan 1. Firing him now and he likely looks for the whole $10.5MM. Wait until November and offer him an extra 1/2 mil to leave a month early. That still saves you $2.8MM. I'm not the least bit concerned about recruiting for this...

If GT wins at least 1 of the next three then no decision will be made until the end of the season - I have no doubt of that at all. At even 2-4 you can still claim you can get to 6 wins (not likely, but you can make the claim). If GT goes 1-5 or 1-6 then I think all bets are off and the odds of...

I'll be honest, an average coach isn't coming close to 7 wins at GT. IMO CPJ, CCG, CGO'L and CBR were all well above average college coaches. In order to win 7-8 games a year GT needs above avg coaching, not avg coaching. GT will never be more than a middle of the pack P5 recruiting program -...

My GT game gear is on every game day win or lose. We are going through a really bad time now - worse than the BL era has that really only bottomed out for one year - this has been consistently bad for over 3 years. But it will come to an end, likely after the UGA game, and we can look forward...

Week 3. GT re-enters at #15. Atlanta is well represented with 2 teams in the Bottom 15. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/college-football-rankings-colorado-state-takes-the-bottom-25-throne-after-blowout-loss-to-washington-state/ 15. Georgia Tech 1-2 Pack watch is officially...

One and done era in college basketball may be about to come to an end. Reports are NBA and NBPA are close to an agreement that will lower eligibility for NBA Draft to 18 by 2024. This likely means fewer 5* kids going to college. Also means avg age of teams is likely to increase...

As long as the OL and DL are as weak as they appear to be, nothing else will really matter. Won't matter who is playing any of the skill positions on offense and defense.

The decision of when to fire is basically a $3.3MM decision. The costs for this year are sunk no matter what you do. But the costs for the last 3 seasons on his contract are not. His last 3 years would be $3.4, $3.5, $3.6 - so $10.5MM. The buyout after the season is $7.2MM ($2.4MM * 3). For an...

Bingo, BL was 1-7 on the season when he was fired. It will likely take something similar to that for Collins to be fired. Almost everyone on this board wants CGC fired or believes he deserves to be fired (i'm in that group as well), but like I said, unless he gets to 1-5 or worse I don't think...

To my eyes Smith is the only RB so far this year who has looked like a P5 level starter. Neither McDuffie, nor Hall have looked like that to me. It appears the RB room is down significantly in talent compared to last year. Gibbs/Mason/Smith looks alot better so far than Smith/McDuffie/Hall.

What I find most amusing is that anyone here actually believed Collins was getting fired today after the game yesterday. How many coaches have been fired at GT mid-season in any sport? How many with a large buyout. I could see him getting fired if he is like 1-5, otherwise I fully expect him...

I would be surprised if a move is made right now. As ugly as the game was (and it was really ugly), GT is 1-2 with 2 expected losses. If GT goes 1-4 or 1-5 then I think we could see a move made. But firing CGC before Dec 1 is a $2+MM decision for a athletic association that is one of the...

Q&A with Ole Miss site for their perspective on their team. https://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/2022/9/16/23356294/georgia-tech-football-2022-opponent-q-a-ole-miss What have you learned from the first 2 games of this season to give you an indication of how Saturday’s game will go on The Flats...

I expect Jenkins to be something of a frustrating player for fans to watch. He has the size to make a big difference, but imo he appears to have inconsistent hands - so he is likely to make some good catches, but also drop some catchable balls as well. FWIW, here are the offensive and defensive...
