    GT Fans Keep Calm and get Woody!

    I really wonder if it has to do with Uga's little upcoming game. Let that circus die down and then get some significant positivity and buzz back in our direction. Right now, it would be lost in the chaos and perhaps even made light of.

    GT Fans Keep Calm and get Woody!

    As far as Speed goes, I agree with those who say that the technique he taught and the results are primarily attributable to CTR than him. The OC/DC will dictate to the position coaches what the schemes and calls are and what techniques are required for those schemes. There is some impact by...

    UGA visiting Tech again

    It shouldn't be about how they look at us or how others look at us, but rather how we look at us. And, in a way, how we look at them and the rest of the world. There's clean-old-fashioned hate and then there's dirty-old-fashioned hate. For GT, we are who we are, and nobody else defines us...

    UGA visiting Tech again

    Depends on how much they're paying us, IMO? Let them fund the new staff positions??!

    Some things CPJ could change next season

    I actually like 1 and 5. It would also keep the defense from getting comfortable defending 1 style. 2 isn't something you can plan to do, it is a function of the defense. 3. I'm quite sure the competition at OT was open and that he had the best guys out there he had available. The best we had...

    UVA vs. Navy

    I like the effort and eloquence. But, the point is much simpler than all of this. Here's the simple question: Do you hope we win more in order to bring in more fans? OR, do you hope we bring in more fans so that we win more? All that other crap is part of the reason why I have already lost...

    Everybody knows Naval Academy graduates are lazy bums and that the only way they ever get jobs is knowing somebody. Also, everybody knows DRad must have just known somebody at Clemson, because that's how Clemson rolls too. It couldn't have been because Clemson was so impressed by the extremely...

    Some ugly kicking numbers I just pulled elsewhere.

    Onside kick every time. With our effectiveness on kickoffs and defense, it probably would've made sense.

    Message from GTAA

    Are you irked at the GTAA, the paysite, or the donor who gave a $200,000 matching donation who stipulated that it be announced first through the Rivals site? Either way, the "irkedness" seems unfitting.

    Here's to getting 2018 off with a BIG BANG

    I bet it was a touchback.

    FWIW, which isn't very much, CJT was a press box guy, so that's not a necessary condition for a good defense at GT. I don't care one way or another if the DC is on the field. Most probably aren't; most OC's either. Venables and Foster are on the field though, so there you go.

    To add ore perspective, it doesn't appear that was the case when he was at Navy. I think he had his DC there the entire 7-8 years. The defenses there weren't good, but it seems CPJ didn't think the DC himself was the problem and believed that guy was doing the best that could be done with what...

    I don't believe that to be the case with Al Groh. I was suspicious of the Wommack and Roof hires because they did not make sense to me based on past results. But, I was extremely excited about the Groh hire. Groh had impressed CPJ in the way his defense defended CPJ's offense and made...

    I think CPJ could run the run-n-shoot, but he chooses not to. Well, to be more accurate, he does run the run-n-shoot but as an attribute of an overall offense rather than as the basis of it. He does it that way because he chooses to. Why does he choose to? Because he thinks that's the best...

    Some ugly kicking numbers I just pulled elsewhere.

    Seems a lot like golf to me. You can be good at the long and short game even though the mechanics of these swings are completely different. But, usually the guys at the top of the list for driving aren't the same names at the top of the list for chipping/putting with some notable exceptions...

    One correction: Edsall was before Roof. Edsall '98. Roof 99-00. And, I agree with your second paragraph. If you're telling your DC or OC to run something they're not used to running, that's usually not going to work out well. You can't immediately become an expert at something else...

    UVA vs. Navy

    I'm not sure how you got there, but I agree with your conclusion. Actually, I agree with a lot of what you said with a one major disagreement. Entertainment should play 0% into the decision making of football!! And, your final statement seems to bear that out, but it seems to contradict a...

    True. Second only to option concepts.

    UVA vs. Navy

    I don't think it logically follows that since no other P5 team runs the spread option, then we shouldn't either or that it somehow means it can't be successful. In fact, the latter conclusion has already been disproven. It's a non sequitur. Also, the fact that the academies use it to great...

    UVA vs. Navy

    I don't think you're communicating honestly in your defense of your gimmick comment. Exhibit A: You couldn't help using it in a derogatory way in this very post where you're saying you weren't using it that way. "It's a gimmick offense that makes it almost impossible to recruit." This is...
