And negative association is a real thing. If the dwags stadium became Coca Cola stadium, I would start drinking Pepsi.

I hate these corporate naming rights stadium deals, and I don’t really understand why the corporations bother in most cases, because I don’t really pay much attention to the sponsor name in most cases, and I assume there others like me. For example, I know the brave’s stadium is called truist...

That section is configurable. For example, during the Covid season I’m pretty sure they removed those sideline student seats and put the team benches on that side of the court because there was more room to spread out. So, maybe there have been times when there was permanent seating there, but I...

I have seats in the first row behind the sideline student section, and those seats (sideline student section) are usually folding chairs, like the court side vip ones but not as nicely cushioned. I hope the permanent seating is just an upgrade for the the students and not a sign that they are...

Looks like they have “permanent” seating installed in the sideline student section. I think they usually have folding chairs there. I hope this doesn’t mean the sideline student section is being eliminated.

Maybe you aren’t trying to talk down to us all, but it sure comes across that way. Maybe not. Maybe by “casual sports fan” you just mean the entire population other than football coaches at the high school level or above, all of whom you seem to have polled at the breakfast spot or something.

I can’t believe this is still being talked about (and beat to death by one particular poster on this message board… not talking about you Zo). This is not a news worthy story. “How it was handled” is a complete nothing burger. Anyone who can’t grasp that needs to grow a pair and move on down the...

There was no crapshow. Procedurally, it seems to have gone down pretty much by the book. He shouldn’t have been allowed to address the players or anyone else, and it is totally fine and normal to escort him out of the building (if that even really happened). All of this is pretty standard, and...

Isn’t the new mayor a GT alum? Maybe we can make this happen! 😂

I met DMo at a GT basketball game a few seasons ago. I had no idea who he was. He and another gentleman, who was a team chaplain if memory serves, were sitting behind me , and we engaged in a brief conversation. They mentioned that DMo was the voice for the bball intro video I think. Anyway...

He is wrong because of his us against them view of “outsiders”. The Institute, the student body, the alumni, and the fans should not be viewed as “outsiders”. Despite his endless, empty proclamations that he loved Georgia Tech, Collins openly fostered that piss poor attitude by publicly...

I agree Adidas has been crap.

I believe the analyst on the tv coverage today was Hudson Mason, former ugag qb. I thought he sounded fair and unbiased in his commentary. At the very end of the broadcast he credited the players for coming out and playing hard, which I thought they did relative to last week vs ole miss. He then...

Nate McCollum is a baller. He has been damn near the only bright spot on this team this season. He stands out above every other player on the team. Wish we had half a dozen players on his level and a decent coach.

Sturdy improved a lot in my opinion, but he still makes poor decisions sometimes that result in turnovers, including a couple of times, at least l, last night. However, on the upside, people should recognize that he is probably the best player on the team at scoring in traffic in the lane off of...

Watch it again. Sturdy and deebo, 2 perfectly capable scorers, were so intent on getting the ball to Devoe that they wasted all 14 seconds on the clock, nearly turned it over at least twice, and had to heave a desperation 3 at the buzzer. The problem was that the ball was supposed to go to our...

I knew it would be a tough ask after Howard fouled out with 8.5 minutes to go, and sure enough we played our worst ball of the night for the next 5 minutes or so playing small ball or Meka at the high post, both poor options. We got down by 13, I think, and had to mount a late come back in the...

My guess would be… no it definitely is not a revenue sport, but I don’t actually know. I go to every men’s game, but I haven’t been to any of the women’s games. Do they really draw 3000-4000 fans? That’s what the men’s team typically has in attendance (which is pitiful). I’m not saying the...

Closer to 4K attendance every time I’ve bothered to look it up this season. Sometimes less. 4,300 is 50% capacity.

Good win. I thought we should have won much more comfortably, but I’ll take it any way we can get it. Deivon played a heck of a game, except for 6 turnovers. I didn’t realize he had that many turnovers while watching the game live. He certainly made a couple of highlight reel athletic plays...
