    Vandy Postgame

    Big day for Lynch. I'm glad to see him get going. I'm not sure if it was obvious from the east or west stands, but it seemed like JT and DM were having a tough time with the mesh. There were 4 or 5 plays where I was worried the ball was on the ground. I'm not sure but I think DM took the ball a...

    Klimpsun - Welcome back

    The GT players, and fans for that matter, should feel nothing but excited to play Climpsum. There is no reason to feel anything else. We don't play sports, ultimately, to just pick on the teams we are better than. We play for the challenge and the joy of competition. Clemson presents a big...

    Kirby Smart and Bren Musburger

    That last pick they threw to #20 by the pylon infuriated me. I wanted them to run the football on 3rd and 5 to run the clock. If they get a first down, great. If they don't, what is it 35 yard field goal to go up two scores? Then, that WR just putting the ball on the ground after catching one in...

    Our defense is awful...

    Yeah. It would be dangerous to write off BC's defense as overrated and assume VT just isn't that good on offense. I look at it this way: Does anybody believe Bammer's defense isn't really good? Well, they just gave up 40 something to a team on a day where they also scored in the 40s on offense...

    Our defense is awesome. .

    I'm glad some folks have mentioned Tre. I was going to give him a shout out today after watching the game from the upper north. Even though he hasn't played a ton, he is obviously a leader on the team. Who got in Mills' face for redirection and encouragement after his bad fumble in Ireland? On...

    Did anybody watch that game? What happened? All I know is BC had a total of 6 first downs on offense.

    Our defense is awful...

    If we are going to pull out names, that is fine, but just understand that the player discussed does not play in a vacuum out there. For example, I feel that both DJ White and Chris Milton could have been starters on most any factory team. In fact, I would say that if we had a DL that got enough...

    That I appreciate. That kind of analysis when discussing these issues carries a lot more weight with me.

    Our defense is awful...

    OK. I think I understand your concern a little better, now that I have read through the last page or so a second time, and specifically your last post after this one. My position is that targeting players to recruit, bringing them in, signing them, and subsequently developing them are...

    Our defense is awful...

    My position on recruiting is this: if you bring in players and after good coaching and player development practices they turn into studs, then you have recruited well. I understand that is not how many view it. A hypothetical question: Coach A recruits a class full of nothing but 5 star...

    How about our front 7 vs Vandy?

    I'll say this much, the log jam in the middle of the LOS looked different when Adams was in there the other day. Just saying. There is a lot of stuff that determines whether a guy is ready to start or not, but go watch the film. It was different. He can plug stuff up, even against the double...

    Our defense is awful...

    I am not sure what to make of this line of discussion. When I hear people say that our defense is worse than other teams who we recruit better than, I wonder, according to who? If your measuring stick is the recruiting services, that is your first mistake. I could care less what BC's recruiting...

    Vandy defensive front and LB's

    That's just it, I'm not so sure. It sounds like it should, but crushing Tulane by 60 something sure didn't last year. I would love to win big, don't get me wrong. Most of all I just want to play well and find a way to win. I really don't know what Vandy is made of. Rest assured, if we do win...

    Vandy defensive front and LB's

    I have no idea how this game will go, but I will say this much: the result won't mean too much more than a single W or a single L. I just don't agree that this game will determine our season, one way or the other. If we "boat race" them, it will mean we are 3-0 and played well that day. If we...

    Two 2017 Recruits to play in Army All-American Bowl

    Watch Swilling run and you will know why.

    Our defense is awful...

    It would be great if Adams and Glanton were fully ready. If it were so, I would go with Gamble at SDE on running downs and Simmons on passing downs. On running downs Adams would be at the Nose and Glanton at the 3 tech. I might bring in Kallon to rush on passing downs from NT. Keshun could play...

    What would you do as a recruiter

    I would be done recruiting him or her. End of story. As athletes who are part of the TECH family, we support EACH OTHER. Do you remember seeing TECH football players at a women's softball game?

    Vandy Predictions

    They won't be as well versed as BC on defense. They had to prepare for SC to kick the year off and they couldn't look past MTSU. The key for us will be manning up on defensive line against the power run that they will wish to establish. Will this be the day we throw Brandon Adams in there for a...

    Pat swilling 7 sacks vs NC State

    I can remember working out at the same time with Pat Swilling and thinking he really wasn't that much bigger than me. He may have had me by 15 or 20 pounds at the most and wasn't that huge a guy. However, when it came time to bench, he would just endlessly toss up weights that I was struggling...
