I am overly optimistic in general about things. My perspective is that if Geoff had won 5 games last year and 7 this year, things would have been status quo in our AA. Things got so historically bad that for the first time in a lifetime, it looks like people at the top sat up and took notice. I...

I had a similar situation in my work career. Worked for a guy that temporarily blinded the powers that be that he reported to at the corporate HQ in another location. This guy was a buffoon, bully, power hungry *******. Long story short, I put up with it knowing the inevitable outcome (although...

As I said in the first post above, I don't follow NBA and haven't for a long time. I have to guess the intersection of the sets of people who post here AND follow that particular sport is virtually nil. Or else, this guy is an unknown outside of the small world of NBA fans. I had not heard of...

I agree with this in regards to the rings. In any sport. Stats are pretty but what do you do when the bright lights come on?? WTBS, i don't know anything about who he has around him. Jordan needed Pippen, Bird needed McHale, Magic needed Kareem, Willis Reed needed the Pearl, etc. Historically...

my son has season tickets for an NBA team. I don't follow the sport since the "golden era" of the 80's...the Showtime Lakers, the Celtics with DJ, the Chief, Bird and McHale, the Bad Boy Pistons, etc. My son who is in his mid-30's and is really into this particular sport, insists that Nikola...

Again.... We are talking mere steps away from the trinity of Tech dining....the V, Junior's and Brittain Dining Hall. A two minute stroll to Pyro's and Pippins. Sure we lost a lot of good men there during freshmen year and it was sad to see them pack up and head off to Valdosta, Mercer , West...

Thanks for the response. It drives at what I was asking (if I watched i would already know the answers to my questions so I appreciate your patience with a curious but uninformed poster). Not putting words in your mouth but I understand you as saying the root issue is our system is not designed...

I 100% agree with you. I was just curious about the reference in the post above mine...."the shooting looks bad in this offense"? I am trying to understand that comment a bit better. Stated another way, I can see an offensive system increasing the quantity and/or quality of looks a shooter gets...

Good shooters make open looks consistently. If they have to get the ball in a certain position or spots on the floor, then they aren't great shooters, they are just spot shooters. If they have to receive the pass in such a way as to be able to shoot immediately, they are merely set shooters and...

Wow! That is incredible. Not saying that you are making this up as we all saw it ourselves too. I think you will be pleased to know he was fired awhile back and, as of September 26 of this past season, is no longer the head FB coach at Tech!!! They have hired Brent Key to replace him. He was the...

I have lost sight of what we are debating when we go around and round about how big our linemen where under our last 3 previous coaches. What is the big picture here that we are trying to prove or disprove? And beyond that, why is it relevant to today's program?

I am not arguing either. Far from it....I totally agree with you. BB, at least as it appears to me, is a simple fix. Get the right coach and then a handful of players. The ROI potential appears to be much higher even than FB at a place like GTand a relatively low hanging piece of fruit.. I am...

The indisputable best that there ever was. And I am not saying that just because he is from Georgia. This artist is even better than Willie Nelson or Dylan (but he's the only one better than Willie and not by a lot).Singing maybe the best Christmas song ever. Merry Christmas friends. Santa has...

Given our financial position, I would imagine the newAD understands the importance of being relevant on the only other revenue producing sport. I just think it has sunk to the point (fortunately for him) that it's not a front burner issue due to lack of attention, which he did not have with the...

We gotta quit recruiting the damn nerds and get some of them there country boys out of South and North Georgia (and by this I mean not anyplace that is now a suburb of the big city Atlanta cause that ain't North Georgia anymore, I am talking about the old North Georgia where people made...

I would also argue that Pastner has benefitted just as much, if not more, from the string of mediocre to bad coaches since Cremins left. My hypothesis is that we have been so bad for so long (with the exception of maybe 2-3 seasons in that entire time frame) that there aren't enough people left...

That also describes me when I got out.

My main takeaway was a bit different....doesn't look like you even had a chance for a job on that S & C staff if you shave your face. No matter what your pronouns are. If I was a person who shaved, I (or my attorney) would be raising some big questions about now. Which, of course, could be...

I don't know anything at all about our BB team but lurk here from time to time. WTBS, if I am an AD, if I have to tell my guy HOW to coach and what system to run, I would pretty much assume that I would need someone else to be the coach. (I want to hasten to add as I am neither pro/con for CJP...
