Our record up there is a bit baffling considering it is what is usually referred to as a "hostile environment". However, look at our record vs Uga at their place vs. our own place...my theory is our players feed off of the big game environment that is often lacking at BDS and certainly lacking...

This is so critical and ignored in the "class rankings". If (hypotherically) we were to sign 25 4* and 5* star "athletes" and skill position guys and no lineman and TE's, on paper we would look great and people would lose their minds over the incredible job done by the new coaching staff...

I thought it was a body part at first!

If you are expecting any more than this you will be disappointed my friend. One way we keep our membership so low is by avoiding the expense of having real reporters (do they even exist anymore?) and fact checkers on staff here. You know....the old "get what you pay for" deal. ;) ETA: we do...

I think the game would not have even come down to that. He is just one of those guys who make everyone around him better. Roof and Gotsis were players like that. When they were out, the defense got noticeably worse. If Charlie is tossed on that call we lose by double digits (imo). That is what...

Another key play of the day yesterday (apologies if this is back in the thread somewhere)....when they (correctly) made he no targeting call on Charlie. That hit was vicious but clean. He ranks up there with Lucious, Brooking and Ken Swilling as hardest hitting players ever at Tech.

As am I. I really trust the AD and selection committee process as I think all of us as fans are too emotionally involved to make wise choices. I am throwing out the idea that Key has earned the right to continue his "interview process". But it is also quite possible that a decision regarding the...

I am not ready to annoit Key. I get that VT was awful and we had bad games aginst UVA and FSU. But, I also think he needs the next three weeks before he is dismissed. He is passing the eyeball test and the team is progressing. We have won two games on the road, one with a double digit deficit in...

No. Absolutely not. The idea in sports, at least in my naive opinion, is to strive to beat the best. Not to win against lesser opponents and take the path of least resistance.

Nor is anyone else outside of perhaps 1 or 2 other teams (at most). They have made Tennessee look like a mid-tier ACC team. Like Spurrier at UF, Smart has taken a historically good program to the levels they probably should have been before. As many of us knew, that program was a sleeping giant...

I perhaps think you think we are disagreeing when, in fact, we are not.

Aside from his TD, Nate's pickup of 3rd and 19 was also huge. He is really having a year for us.

This pretty much sums it up. If you would have added "or recruiting prowess or any other singular skillset" to the end of your sentence we could have locked this thread. really, what more needs to be said about this whole debate?

Not necessarily directed at you but how does a HC at a lower level know his assistants won't be successful at the next level? After all, to this point he has trusted these guys to get him to a spot where he is a candidate for the next level. I think the thinking amongst the coaching fraternity...

I certainly understand that but it's never an approach we would use when picking a job or when hiring candidates. "Person X. we want you to consider our offer but understand that you will be making 80 % of industry standard wages for your position and, btw, we have a freeze on hiring, expansion...

I think the one thing that might prevent it from being like the pros is that the NFL does a good job keeping the playing feild level from a $$$ perspective. So teams in Buffalo and Kansas City have equal footing with the ones in NY and LA. This is NOT happening at the college level. I am not...

I mean this sincerely. It is refreshing to have some younger voices here. This may be the first time someone has referred to their mom as a source of information on this site. My mom (RIP) knew I was in school at GT up the road aways in Atlanta but I don't know that she was aware that we had a...

I will support whoever but I can’t get enthused by Mullen. His record at UF ( which has infinitely better resources than Tech) was pretty meh. It’s analogous to saying a student who struggled at Kennesaw State is going to do better somehow at Tech. This is hoping for a miracle IMO.

I think you have some bias that is leaking through. I don't think Johnson received any worse press than Gailey did and their overall records were pretty similar at the end of the day. Johnson's reception in the press was more based on his reaction to that side of his job moreso than his...

I think you misread his post. Or else I did. I know one of us did.
