  1. Conference Realignment

    Because it’s all just business and everything is negotiable. Those of you who believe the GOR is the only contract in the history of the US that won’t be attacked or renegotiated is just funny. Everything is up to be negotiated and people are always able to be bought.

    The coaches poll is just as corrupt. The only reason we got a share of the Natty is because Tom Osbourne had the balls to put GT #1 over a team in his region. He could only do that because he was a tenured coach. If he had been knew there is no way he would have voted that way and been...

    The UGA-FSU does not matter at all because both teams will have many opt outs. No bowl games mean anything other than for the practices. But even those are compromised because You can say this exact thing for the past 100 years. Why did the NCAA (who supposedly had academics standards in...
  4. An Open Letter to J Batt

    The old regime bent over. JBatt should walk out of his office today and hang the banner in Bobby Dodd. That act alone would make him a GT legend.
  5. The End of College Sports As We Know It

    So, we have fans who would support and show up to games to watch us lose (last 5 years) but if we started winning by playing teams in our tier then they would stop coming and donating. Interesting. So, you’d rather watch a game in person where we get smoked by Clemson but would not want to...
  6. An Open Letter to J Batt

    I’m not totally against it but the reality is for a school like GT, if we get good enough in the Champions League to move up to the premier league then we would immediately go 3-8 or 2-9, get relegated down, have our committed players decommitt and then spend 6 years trying to rebuild. The...
  7. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Here’s my deal - I freaking love college football even though I fully understand that it has been totally corrupt for decades. And my team, GT, gets screwed by the NCAA way more than my team ever benefits from the NCAA. But I still love it because of the passion of the fans and the upsets that...

    I’m not talking about Michigan or Ohio State or ND. Those are the 3 northern schools who survived. I’m talking about all those teams who have fallen off when the southern teams rose. Illinois, Rutgers, BC, Syracuse, Minnesota, Maryland, Iowa, etc. Heck, GT is a victim of it. We fell off the...

    I definitely believe if we had a playoff in 2014 that we would have had as a good a chance as any team in a 12 or 24 team format. Johnson made his career winning college football playoffs and we were playing our highest level of football at that time since 1990. I’m not saying we would have...

    True but it’s different fanbases so it’s not the same money. The Falcons fanbase is a lot different from GT and UGA. The money is still there even if other sports attract fans. You could have the Masters, the Daytona 500, an NFL game, an NBA game, and a college football playoff game all on...

    This is true because when the southern teams pulled even with the northern teams the media (AP, Scripps, and other polls) continued to vote for the northern schools. This artificially kept the southern teams down for an additional 20plus years. Eventually, the southern teams (post integration)...
  12. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Do you not understand the sport has been corrupt all these years? As a GT fan how can you accept what this system did to us in 1990? Not only did this system pay Notre Dame to play in the Orange Bowl instead of an undefeated GT, this system also had the media give Colorado the Natty. Do you...

    We are seeing a clash of agendas and eras. The younger fans never lived thru the total corruption of the beauty pageant decades. Most older fans accepted decades ago that the entire D1 sport is corrupt. This FSU decision is just proving the past isn‘t quite dead. But, I can smile knowing...

    What none of you are taking into account is that no team will resemble themselves in meaningless bowl games. Both UGA and FSU will be without a lot of players. GT will be without several players. All due to the portal which officially opens tomorrow or the draft. Bowl game results mean...
  15. GT vs UCF - Gasparilla Bowl (was GT vs Troy - Birmingham Bowl)

    We need to leave this joke of a country club for a real conference the second we can.
  16. CFP Discussion

    The ACC is not a real conference. It is an elite party controlled by those in North Carolina. It’s going to fall apart because everyone now sees it, FINALLY. We better have a plan the minute it opens. Hopefully, this can be used by FSU and others to force something due to inept leadership by...
  17. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    I agree except about the part of destroying the college game. GT and every other team will have 11 players on the field at all times (sometimes 10 or 12 as well). The game will be just fine. It’s us who simply have to change our thinking and realize that player turnover has gone from a 3-5...
  18. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    The only reason Kiffen, Saban, Dabo whine about the portal and NIL is because it opened the door for every team to do what they have been doing under the table for years. They are just mad because they know other schools are about to step up once this initial transition phase passes. They know...
  19. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    I have no problem with any of this. Everyone is finally being honest for the first time ever. It’s the fans who have been living in denial all these decades who have built up this sport as if it isn’t all about self serving. I’ll root for the 11 players on the field wearing GT uniforms in...
  20. Kiffin on NIL and Portal

    The NCAA needs to simply stop existing. It does nothing for anyone because it does everything unequally. I’d rather have no system than a corrupt system.
