  1. ACC 2022-2023

    in the era of pay for play and free agency, you will likely see a lot more "upsets" like this as P5 schools try to get new rosters to learn to play together every year. The so-called mid-majors are becoming the A and AA clubs for the AAA P5. There will always be kids / teams in the lower...
  2. Battle of ATL

    I'll be there in 101. Agree with @AUFC , they did a nice job with the facility. Should be a good crowd, and you know they'll be fired up to play us. Looking forward to a great college hoops atmosphere
  3. GT fan day info

    I had Callaway seats for many years, but like @AUFC, I didn't get the value for the price. I dropped those and now am in 101. I have 4 seats and can usually find someone to sit with me for ACC or UGA games. The TX Rio Grande's of the world are impossible to give away.
  4. GT fan day info

    Y'all must go to a different McCamish than I do. I usually get to my seat about 30 - 40 minutes before game time. I am usually the only person in my section until about 15 mins til tip. The student section below 108-110 is virtually empty until tip. The section with the band is a morgue...
  5. UPDATED TO 3.5 M! AD Email - GEORGIA TECH LAUNCHES COMPETITIVE DRIVE INITIATIVE

    I'm not sure I would've touted this as something the fanbase will be excited about. I've given money every year since 1998 and have seen the on field product get worse over time in both football and basketball. Now I'm supposed to get all giddy because I can give more? Maybe I'm just a...
  6. GT fan day info

    Wasn't the 2018 shindig when the big recruit came in and then ***** slapped us the next day and committed elsewhere after dancing on stage, etc? Attendance has been poor most years I've had season tix (2002-03). We've had blips where it was hard to get a ticket, but most years the place has...
  7. #Postgame GT 9 - UVA 16

    That was a brutal game to watch. UVA is a terrible team. Our D played well, but a lot of the low production was due to UVA's insanely inept offense and comical kicker. The offense with Sims was pedestrian, but with Gibson it was painful. 3 of his first 16 passes. Seriously? The...
  8. This year

    On the non-Tech front, I picked up season tix at Ga State this year to replace my tix at another school (my buddy was fired as HC, so no reason to go to games there). I've got tix at Tech plus 4 other schools and enjoy watching different teams play and the different venues / fan bases. Will...
  9. When does Pastner feel heat

    @orientalnc I don't disagree. Should clarify that I was trying to say any discussion of changes in hoops (which seem to pop up on this board non-stop) would need to wait until the disaster in football is rectified. Didn't mean to imply I thought it was broken and in need of immediate repair...
  10. When does Pastner feel heat

    Football / CGC is an embarrassment. Needs to be fixed ASAP. Likely TStan, too CJP has not delivered consistently, but the hoop program is miles ahead of football. Need to fix the dumpster fire and that will be expensive. GTAA will be in the hole again for several years and I wouldn't...
  11. Quantify a "good" performance on Monday

    "Good" outcome tomorrow in my eyes: Offense: scores Defense: forces at least one punt each half Special teams: doesn't give up a return for TD Overall: no season-ending injuries; look more like a D1 team than we have under CGC so far
  12. How many double digit scorers will we have?

    two or three double digit scorers. That's the case for most P5 teams. I just did a quick scan of last year's top 25 and most had three or four kids average 10+ Gonzaga, Duke & Kentucky all had 5. UNC, Nova, UCLA, Auburn, Purdue & Arkansas had 4. Baylor, Tennessee, Arizona, Wisconsin &...
  13. If our two Final Four squads played in a seven game series, who comes out on top?

    The 1990 team was a blast to watch. Not sure I can make an argument that 8-6 in conference (3rd) makes you the best team in the country. Much like a lot of teams we remember, they put together a really fun run through the ACCT and NCAAT. Second round, sweet 16 and final 8 wins were all one...
  14. Jose

    Saw this candle in an airport shop when I was in NO this week. 😁
  15. Coaching Carousel 7 - When life gives you lemons, squirt someone in the eye

    Big loss for college hoops. McKillop is a great coach and a class act. Have to believe he NIL / portal fiasco has a lot to do with this
  16. Devoe and Ush at the Portsmouth Invitational

    I think being undrafted will serve Jordan well. That would give him (and his agent) a chance to determine which team he thinks is the best fit for his strengths and then bust his *** to make the squad (or G League affiliate) on a make good contract. It's happened a lot and I agree with...
  17. Jose

    I'm at the Pels game tonight. People here friggin LOVE Jose! Energy in the place is completely different when he comes in. Hope they can pull this one out!
  18. College Basketball NIL Discussion

    Brennan hit the nail on the head. Bacot, Love, Davis, Black are all coming back and will make mid to high 6 figures. None of them will likely ever play in the NBA, so this is a way for them to get a great payday while delaying their lives in the low Euro leagues. NIL is changing...
  19. Coaching Carousel 7 - When life gives you lemons, squirt someone in the eye

    P5 coaches make big bank. Mid major coaches don't often make "retire at 50" money and many of them don' get their first head coaching gig until later. If you work on grad assistant, basketball ops and low assistant salaries for 20 years and then hit the mid major market as a HC, don't count...
  20. ACC Discussion 2021-22

    Easy decision to stay on campus, make good cash, be BMOC. Reality for Leaky and Bacot means playing for less cash and no fame in Greece or Italy. Neither Leaky nor Bacot have a realistic chance of playing in the NBA.
