    UVA - 12/31

    Thanks for the info. I figured there must be some sort of connection if Schwartz was indeed cozying up to Bennett post game.

    UVA - 12/31

    This team is mentally weak as hell. Our guys were playing tough scrappy basketball toe to toe with UVA in a two-point game at 27-25, then a couple of bad breaks and bad plays and they completed imploded and gave the game away in a matter of just a few minutes. GT teams seem to do this over and...

    UVA - 12/31

    I can’t imagine Bennett would have any use for Schwartz, unless they have a history together. Do they?

    Alabama St. game 12/17/22

    I agree that most of the top tier players couldn’t care less about getting a college degree, and therefore, the GT high academic degree, valuable life advantage, sales pitch isn’t going to sway them, and might even be a turn off for them. However, I think there is a demographic of very capable...

    Alabama St. game 12/17/22

    I just watched Pastner’s post game press conference. At the 5 minute mark of the video he gives what I think is a great pitch for GT and getting a degree from GT. In the context of practicing during finals week, he talks about how rigorous the academics are at GT, but how it is worth it because...

    Alabama St. game 12/17/22

    The team played the right way, as Pastner would say. Rodney is playing well and I hope he keeps playing well and gets plenty of minutes even when Franklin gets back from injury. Rodney has made something like 13 out of his last 14 shots over 4 games. That number includes several makes from...

    22-23 Basketball Season- 9 Games in

    No, Pastner thinks this team can actually shoot. We haven’t seen it so far. The missing piece is obviously Deebo Coleman. We have to get better shooting and more scoring out of him to see a good shooting team. We know he can shoot, so I’m not sure what is going on with him lately. His defense...

    I’m an alum. I know e-mag, re-mag, and 3-mag. I get Tech. I agree with your take that Tech is different, even from most other technology programs, like auburn for example. It’s interesting to hear your take on this as someone who has taught/teaches at other universities. Tech is in a league of...

    THWG: Ugag Game Thread

    I was there in section 110 across court from uga bench and behind our sideline student section. Crowd was much better than I expected with respect to total number in attendance and GT/uga split. Definitely majority GT. I would estimate dwags at less than 25%, maybe by quite a bit, but I could be...

    MBB Attendance

    Totally agree. That kind of atmosphere is contagious and just a lot of fun. I could have lived without the anxiety induced by the constant back and forth and lead changes, but the experience of those last 2 minutes is worth the price of admission and worth coming back for over and over.

    GT basketball has not been great, but it’s been a helluva lot more attractive than football for the past 4-5 years.

    Interest in this thread is dead. I hope it’s not foreshadowing the support in the building tonight or the jackets play on the court. WHATS THE GOOD WORD?!

    MBB Attendance

    Winning will help, but maybe not much if the winning only starts after half a season of mediocre results. I think a season of winning followed by a preseason of hype/hope to be a contender in the ACC is what it will take to see good crowds.the Wisconsin game last year is a good example. If...

    MBB Attendance

    During conference play the average will go up, but I wouldn’t bank it going “way up”. Our season average last year was only about 4700 or 54% of capacity. Pretty lousy.

    Regarding attendance: EVERYONE COME TO THE ugag GAME TONIGHT!!!

    Parking?

    I second the recommendation for the parking deck on state street. I think they take payment at the gate, or they used to a few seasons ago. I used to park there before I broke down and got a season pass. You may also be able to purchase in advance online. I think the lot number is W23.

    THWG: Ugag Game Thread

    Great stats peacone. All that razor thin margin jargon makes it sound like the gold and white could benefit from a strong home court advantage. Let’s hope lots of the yellow jacket faithful turnout in the interest of clean old fashioned hate. I’ll be there.

    Bad take. I sure as hell hope you are wrong.
