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

    Disappointed Wynn went to NE but we keep looking. Like I said, I didn't see him as a difference maker, but someone who could be in the rotation at DL, which we could have used. Just because a player is coming from an elite program doesn't mean they will be an elite player (or even a good...
  2. Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    While I will be happy if we get him as we need all the help we can get on the DL, I don't see Wynn as a difference maker. I think he has the potential to be a rotational player at GT. In 4 seasons he did not start a single game at AL. Also, of the 21 games he played in only 8 came against SEC...
  3. Where the Program stands

    While I don't believe this to be true at its basest extent, based on the public comments the last 3 years the plan would appear to be 'we are going to recruit at an elite level and out talent most of the teams we play'. The issue with that is that recruiting is one of just 3 important pieces of...
  4. Where the Program stands

    We beat an FCS team, one of the 2 or 3 worst P5 teams and a team that went 6-7. The UNC win in hindsight turned out to be a mirage -they simply weren't what people thought they were at the beginning of the season. That was the one game that gave us fans hope and it sort of ended up being the...
  5. The widening gap of conference revenue streams

    UGA's academic reputation has very little to do with its athletic success. It is primarily due to the HOPE scholarship which is keeping alot more of the best students in-state and they mostly end up at UGA. Their academic rankings went up while their football program was relatively stagnant in...
  6. Where the Program stands

    This look at the team wasn't really about where the team is now compared to where the team was 3 years ago, 5 years ago, etc. It was simply about where it appears to be now overall and in comparison only to the previous year. IMO this program clearly needs upgrades in both players and coaches...
  7. Where the Program stands

    Here is where I sort of see the program right now (as we wait for hopefully a few more portal additions). Coaching - offense - I feel like we are stronger here than we have been the last 3 seasons primarily due to the hire of Long. Whether our position coaches are better I don't know, but I...
  8. Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Bummed to hear about Joseph. He was one of the 3 or 4 transfers I was most looking forward to. I feel like we made upgrades to the coaching staff - especially on offense, but my major concern is the OL and DL and right now we don't have anyone for either unit coming in that is likely to make...
  9. Power Conference HC rankings

    CBS Sports has its Power conference HC rankings out. ACC coaches were ranked in the following spots - 65, 64, 60, 58, 56, 47, 43, 34, 27, 25, 20, 19, 17, 2...
  10. If the ACC scraps divisions...

    NCAA removed the division requirements today, It also removed restrictions on recruiting class sizes for the next 2 years (you still can't have more than 85 on scholarship per year, but you can sign however many you want for the next 2 years to get to 85 - this is a reaction to all the portal...
  11. Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    https://rolltide.com/sports/football/roster/stephon-wynn-jr-/8138 Played in 21 games over 4 seasons including 8 SEC Games. Totaled 16 tackles and 1 QB hurry over the 21 games, including 6 tackles in SEC games.

  13. If the ACC scraps divisions...

    I would be shocked if the 4 NC schools aren't the permanent 3 for each other and it does make alot of sense from a history standpoint. I'm all for scrapping the divisions. It'll basically be the top 2 teams playing in the Championship game (likely to be decided as the top 2 ACC teams in the CFP...
  14. Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Solomon Byrd - the DE from Wyoming, I really hope we do not lose Joseph as someone above hinted at, he is one of the more proven productive players we have coming in.
  15. College Basketball NIL Discussion

    The US has never had and hopefully never will have an unfettered non-regulatory Capitalism. That is a recipe for disaster, just like unfettered Socialism or Communism would be. There have always been regulations and laws that serve as guardrails. At some times there are more guardrails and...
  16. Can we stay competitive in the NIL era?

    Unlike every other sport, college athletics is now basically running as a pure free-market system and that is a bad thing. Anybody with a basic understanding of economics understands you do not want an completely unfettered free-market - that tends to be bad for a society. That's why every...
  17. Finally, a non-profit GT collective: Introducing Jackets for ATLanthropy

    https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/ncaa-aims-to-crack-down-on-boosters-disguising-pay-for-play-as-name-image-and-likeness-payments/ We'll see if anything comes out of this.
  18. College Basketball NIL Discussion

    Swarbrick has been making a similar take for 4-5 yrs now, even before NIL and portal rules. His opinion is that there are some schools that want to have an academic student-athlete model and some that just want a semi-pro football model and that those 2 designs are not really compatible (though...
  19. ACC Discussion 2021-22

    Love announced he is returning as well so UNC returns every starter except Brady Manek. I expect they will likely be ACC pre-season favs next fall and I can easily see them being the pre-season #1 team.
  20. College Basketball NIL Discussion

    I think it will be a mix. The ability for some schools to offer large NIL packages will make them attractive to some of the top HS players and keep them from going to the G League or other places.
