  1. Expectations for the 2021 season

    There’s truth to that, but “GT sucks” is an easy narrative for our local B-level radio personalities to fall back on when it’s a slow news day and they already talked about how this year will be different when uga plays Alabama.
  2. Expectations for the 2021 season

    100% agree. If we can’t do better in year 3 there will be some valid reasons to believe this isn’t working, and we are the local media’s favorite punching bag anyway. I’m just saying 3 wins sucks, but we’ve been a bad 3 win team when you consider how many losses weren’t even competitive games.
  3. Expectations for the 2021 season

    It would be hard to be satisfied with less than a bowl season. However, if we don’t get blown out at half time by average competition, we could win 3 and be a lot better than we’ve been the past 2 years.
  4. uga @ Tech for 2021 COFH

    Hamilton did fumble the ball, but the uga player was out of bounds when he “recovered” it, so our ball.
  5. Expectations for GT Football

    Yup. I think the admissions issue has gotten worse with Tech’s academic reputation. Maybe 60 years ago there were more multi generational alums, but not any more. We have several disadvantages to maintaining something like that now. We do have the advantage of so much great high school...
  6. Expectations for GT Football

    I think part of it is the several decades of mostly feeling like you’ve been kicked in the nuts as a Tech fan. I would guess a lot of USC alums are from SC and stay there after graduation, whereas more of our alums are from elsewhere and more often leave GA after graduating. We’re a smaller...
  7. Expectations for GT Football

    I would guess the lack of results to this point is going to affect season ticket sales this year. If we don’t at least go to a bowl this year, I think we’ll really start to see fans and recruits losing faith in this staff.
  8. Expectations for GT Football

    Also O’Leary, who was a good coach with great assistants, had the benefit of a down uga and average ACC. The ACC had some of its strongest years ever while CPJ was here and uga was pretty consistently good or great almost every year. The ACC has been a pile of trash the past 2 seasons, and...
  9. 2021 Game dates

    I’m guessing UNC will be the game we play at MBS?
  10. Time to Bury the Asterisk?

    No excuses next year. It’s more than reasonable to expect a competitive team in year 3. This team needs to improve in every phase, but that means we have opportunities in every phase. Particularly on defense where the fact that we ran the triple on offense is irrelevant and with Collins...
  11. Collins report card after 2 seasons

    The circumstances of this year make it difficult to judge but I’m not impressed. Getting a difference maker like Gibbs is refreshing, but Gailey had the ability to recruit a few difference makers too and it never amounted to anything. O’Leary could recruit AND had great assistants. The jury is...
  12. A Thread to Rehash GT HC Comparisons

    I think they’re going to turn things around. We just need a new slogan. #404thecoaching
  13. Starting QB speculation

    I guess I haven’t been keeping up on all the threads, but I’m with you. You can’t blame him for all the unlucky tipped balls, or the lack of protection.
  14. Starting QB speculation

    I honestly haven’t noticed much criticism aimed at our freshman QB. Generally it seems like everyone has been accepting of the expected freshman mistakes and have recognized a lot of the offensive breakdowns are not all on Sims. I’m still very skeptical of some aspects of this coaching staff...
  15. The Future

    I think at times this we’ve shown that we have talent to win games on this roster, and some areas show some good coaching has taken place. However, we’ve also had issues with penalties and have on several occasions completely fallen apart against mediocre teams. After 11 years with one of the...
  16. Is Collins nasty enough to be a HC ?

    The results are also not even close. We pretty much never look prepared to play even against teams with comparable talent. I’m not saying Collins should be expected to win 20 games in his first 2 seasons with this roster, but we’re playing ugly, sloppy football.
  17. Is Collins nasty enough to be a HC ?

    CPJ won 20 games in his first 2 years, and was a play away from 2–0 against the mutts. It doesn’t always go your way, even when you put yourself in position to beat a quality team. He did inherit some strong talent, but also had them playing in his system with discipline even though they were...
  18. #GTvsCUSE Postgame

    The freshman QB mistakes are to be expected and we weren’t protecting him well so all of the turnovers aren’t just on him. 15 penalties is on the coaches. I don’t know all the ways that covid has affected practice, but having watched the way this staff has players rush from one rep to the...
  19. Gameday!!!

    20 minute delay for no specified reason.
  20. How to watch the game today???

    I couldn’t get the Syracuse game last week on ACC Network through the Sling orange package. I also don’t think Fox Sports South is on there for today’s game. I’m doing a free trial of YouTube tv for today’s game.
