  2. Here's a thought

    I think you hit it on the head. GT's admin is concerned with competing with Ivy League schools and CalTech and MIT. While it is hardly a super strong correlation, if you look at P5 endowments per student and compare it to performance on the football field, it is at best uncorrelated and at...

  3. Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Bio https://goleathernecks.com/sports/football/roster/daniel-carson/19400 Started 7 games for W Ill this past season. Was 15th on the team in tackles with 13. Had 2 TFL and 1 sack. Obviously a play to add a little depth to the DL. Played 4 games total at TX and 12 games total (8 starts) at W...

  4. New assistant coach

    AJC mentioned he was the recruiting coordinator at his last 3 coaching stops (Harvard, Stanford and Rice).

    https://www.ajc.com/sports/georgia-tech/georgia-tech-hires-harvard-assistant-coach-brian-eskildsen-per-report/OUWHTIIDYJGNVGOSECBYTOOUMU/ Eskildsen has been part of a successful run at Harvard, contributing to three Ivy league championships. In 2020, Amaker told Stadium that “Brian is our...

    I've always thought the best path for GT has been something similar to WI. Now note they spend alot more money than we do, but in terms of their football program and how it is run I think it makes alot of sense. They generally recruit between #25-40 most years. That is a good start. Then they...

    The primary entrance into Tier 1 will be spending by the university AA (not NIL). After that #2 is likely to be eyeballs (how many people watch the games your team plays in). Performance on the field is a distant #3. In order to play in a P5 conference you have to commit to a certain amount of...

    I would gladly be in tier 2, simply because even if we start buying players we would never be able to afford enough to play with the Tier 1 schools. That is why they will be the schools in tier 1. Keep in mind it is not about the school funding for athletics. It is about the fan base funding...

    I don't know exactly how we get there, but I feel like this is where it is heading. Conferences would be intact - but not for football - for all sports except football. I'm not sure it is going to be about blowing up contracts. I think more than likely what would happen is a group of schools...

  10. Here's a thought

    You'll need to stop thinking in terms of dropping down to FCS, or Div II or anything like that. I don't believe that is what is going to happen at all. Nor do I think it is what is being proposed by most on this board who talk about moving down. Think of it more as a splitting of FBS for...

  11. GTMBB offseason thread

    Good article showing what each school currently has going out and coming in as of the beginning of June. Provides some sense of who is more or less talented on paper than they were a year ago...

  12. Here's a thought

    I think this is the most accurate representation of our fan base. GT is in the bottom quintile in terms of undergraduate population compared to the other P5 schools and ND. So right off the bat you are starting at a disadvantage in terms of numbers of potential alumni you have. Then you have...

  13. Here's a thought

    I agree this has how it has been for a long time. GT has never been willing to play that game - and that doesn't go just for the admin, I believe the majority of the alum base would not support it. On the one hand I am very happy to see it become more obvious because it will make the eventual...

  14. Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    I think the staff is counting on Adams to either be the starting center or a primary reserve along the interior OL.

  15. Well, at least we are not DOOK.......yet

    This is simply a projection of the fact we have very little production returning (I believe SP+ has GT at 118th in returning production). So you combine having few returning players that have shown any production and no transfers that are seen as major impact types and this is what you will...

  16. ACC Spring Overreactions

    We will be pre-season favorites in 2-3 games. Western Carolina and Duke are the obvious 2 and then I could see GT being a small fav against UVA at home. I'll be surprised if GT is favored in any road games as well as Clemson, Ole Miss, and Miami. If GT overperforms early than it may start to...

  19. Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    The way the Taisun article is written it feels like Taisun is planning on coming into the program to compete for the starting job, but the author suggests he is coming primarily to supply more depth and try to push Sims in practice. Whether that is just the author writing what he thinks or...

  20. Can we stay competitive in the NIL era?

    I've been in the mode of lets just blow up CFB and start over for a good half a decade or more. Like a couple of others said, I understand where GT is and understand where all this is headed. Let's just get to a place where the teams that just want to operate professionally can do so and those...
