    Locker Room Renovation Underway

    I don't have inside info, but my opinion is that I agree with jgtengineer - it is a lack of brand control over the past 30+ years. GT is very careful with who they let replicate their logo (I hear lots of complaints about this), but they do themselves in with the merchandise they license that...

    Locker Room Renovation Underway

    As a GT grad, I know this is strange, but I am a marketing professional whose career focus is on brand guidelines and manuals. I've found that some companies are great at protecting their brand - FedEx, Coca-cola (who have brand departments that review everything that goes out with their name on...

    Locker Room Renovation Underway

    I totally get that you have to "compete" with the other schools, so I'm not down on this decision at all, but as a general rule of thumb I think all the money that is spent on this stuff is so insane. (That's funny about $4 million room must suck.) Does anyone have pics of the current locker...

    The National Championship Game

    I actually agree that they were good this year despite the soft schedule - and Bama tried to give them the game, but they just couldn't get it done (yay!) And maybe they are the #2 team...I just think the entire bar was low this year, and I saw a lot of bad football.

    Yeah, guess I forgot about those in my anger. They were good games

    The National Championship Game

    This is like every Miami game this year. You know the other team is better, but everyone that plays them chokes. What is Bama doing? Mental mistakes, hands on their hips, not covering receivers...they are lucky UGA receivers are so clumsy and have dropped several. I have yet to see a good...

    Is everyone in the State of Ga enjoying the hype

    My kids' school sent home a note that today was Falcon's Friday and Monday was Bulldogs day....really??? (Separation of church and state, but no separation of football and school! haha) Yeah, my kids will be sporting their gold and white on Monday!

    Roof

    WOW! and at what point does this become unsustainable? I'm also referring to Arkansas AD's remarks about coaching protection agreements as well. https://www.seccountry.com/arkansas/arkansas-ad-hunter-yurachek-critical-texas-kevin-sumlins-contract

    What if CPJ had Bama or Climpsuns players...?

    I think one thing to consider in this fun fantasy conversation is that CPJ coaches a TEAM. 4 and 5 star recruits often play for their stats - so they can make it big in the NFL...CPJ's offense doesn't work unless you are willing to sacrifice for the team. You'll get one or two that are ok with...

    Rational Off-season Discussion Thread

    I'm not sure why Howard ran the ball out of the end zone on 2/3 of those. I get what you are saying about the bobble, and thank goodness that call went our way (although it didn't help in the end), but the other 2 kicks could have been an easy touch back.

    Rational Off-season Discussion Thread

    I'm not one to quickly say, "FIRE the coaches!" but I do think there are some issues that coaches need to either get way better at or go away. 1. QB - Many people here say that TQM is not the right QB. I can't speak to reads - some of that is experience and maybe ability, but I think his...

    MJ Hanging up the cleats

    I have no inside knowledge, but based on comments and articles that I've read I think he must have fractured that outside bone in the foot which required a screw and surgery. I did the same thing last year. While my injury isn't at risk for additional issues, I can see how a diabetic has many...

    Amazing interview w/ Shamire Devine

    Really love his sense of priority. Love that this interview turned into more about Tech than football. Clearly he is happy where he chose to come to school!
