  1. Jalen Camp: Catch or No Catch?

    On the replay, I see the receiver running into to the DB who puts up his hands to protect himself. I think it was the back judge that through the flag.
  2. Blocking assignment help

    If there was a missed assignment, it is that the pulling LG blocked the pitch key. Maybe it’s just the camera angle, but it looks a bit like the BB was initially trying to block the guy the pulling LG blocked. I’m not sure that this wasn’t a designed QB keep set up to look like an option...
  3. Jalen Camp: Catch or No Catch?

    No catch. He bobbles it and doesn’t have possession until after the heel touches OB.
  4. What are your measures for success with the new defense?

    Agree. GT doesn’t have many such games. Going back to the 12-13 season, I only found three games like that: BC in ‘16 was 17-14 W uga in ‘16 was 13-7 L VT in ‘13 was 17-10 L In all the other games one team scored at least 20 points. That said, I think bigger problem is those times when the...
  5. What are your measures for success with the new defense?

    A change in approach directed by CPJ. The offense was so good that year that it could recover from big plays surrendered by the defense. So CPJ instructed Roof to defend aggressively to increase 3-and-outs and turnovers at the cost of increasing the number of big plays surrendered. I think...
  6. A Back Involvement

    The rocket toss has not been used much the past several seasons except perhaps an occasional temporary resurgence here and there. I think defenses have gotten much better at defending (particularly, becoming adept at keeping MLB clean) and we have not had strong inside run game in a while...
  7. Georgie paying players?

    For some people, all that counts is winning. How you do it is irrelevant.
  8. More insight into CPJ's role....?

    From the various press conferences and radio shows CPJ has said or indicated that he: He works directly with the QB, whether on the practice field on in meeting room where they review the film of the prior game. He said the QB/BB coach probably has the toughest job in the film review since CPJ...
  9. More insight into CPJ's role....?

    I would like to see world peace, a unicorn, and flying pigs.
  10. Is it Deer Season Yet?

    And loving it. I guess I can’t say too much. I’ve woken up before dawn so I that could drive an hour to tee off at 7 am.
  11. Is it Deer Season Yet?

    I’m content to sleep until a decent hour and then enjoy a cup of coffee while admiring the gun collection from the comfort of the couch. The idea of traipsing through the woods before dawn and then shiver from cold just isn’t my idea of a good time.
  12. 114 Years of GT Football – How will history repeat?

    Since the mid 60’s or so, GT has essentially had a .500 football record. Great seasons are invariably balanced by awful seasons and many years are of the 7-6 variety. From what I’ve read, the football program has suffered for a lack of financial resources over the last several years...
  13. PT for Lucas Johnson

    Thanks. It's not as bad what I thought. Still, a whole turnover difference. The ballpark value of a turnover is 4 points and the ballpark value of home field advantage is 3 points. So, when GT plays at uga, GT is effectively trailing by 7 points at kickoff. Ouch.
  14. PT for Lucas Johnson

    It feels like GT always loses the turnover margin in the uga game. It seems like GT can be relied upon for a couple turnovers and uga never turns the ball over. I know there have been a couple of late uga turnovers that have sealed wins for GT, but I suspect those are the exceptions to the...
  15. Redshirt Changes

    I was surprised that the number of permissible games is 4. Surely, it was chosen because it was a value that had enough votes to pass. To be fair, the question wasn't one for which a technically correct answer could be computed and so a what-has-the-votes-to-pass value was to be expected. I...
  16. General Investing and Economics Discussion - No Politics

    It's all long term for me. To me, "short term investing" is fancy way of saying "I'm trying to time the market." Which brings me to a another point. There is investing and then there is playing the market. Investing is putting money in something and letting that something generate value or...
  17. General Investing and Economics Discussion - No Politics

    Up until this year, I'd gone the mutual fund route with a financial advisor for Roth IRA's and additional investments. We discussed my financial goals and he recommended a set of mutual funds. I bought the shares in mutual funds of my choosing and paid a sales tax up front and had no other...
  18. GT over/under set at 6 wins for 2018

    Don’t like it, but can’t argue with it.
  19. Georgia Tech adds 2 analysts to staff

    Analyze. :) The analyst could do any number of things. During the season, I expect it’ll involve a lot of film watching and statistics development. Looking for play calling patterns, looking for weakness in schemes, drafting next week’s game plan, etc. They’ll likely be involved in on...
  20. Would you rather...QB edition.

    I want the athlete. He’ll either train into a good QB or will become a decent player at another position.
