    Conference Realignment

    Well, to be fair, it would be better at first. I’ve never watched any of those teams play in person so there would be novelty at least. Duke is just Duke. Beating them is no fun because we’d rather beat Clemson or uga. Losing to them is horrible because we should be better than them. I’m...

    UNC DC Geoff Collins

    The issue of holding bitterness inside is valid. It’s only a game after all. Wonder how much bitterness Collins holds toward Tech? From his perspective we were unappreciative of his immense coaching skills, mistreated him, did not acknowledge the elite level of talent he was accumulating, and...

    UNC DC Geoff Collins

    Like you, I also can’t remember Collins taking a bad defense and making it good. Perhaps someone on here has an example and can set us straight. But I am just so so glad he’s not our problem anymore.

    Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    That’s logical I suppose but it would be cleaner and easier to just follow pro ball then. Some of us still think the college experience is worth preserving even if it’s been stretched to the breaking point. But, sure, if that has gotten too messy for some fan I think switching to pro sports...

    Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    I guess if more Tech fans hated the government, like the typical uga fan, we would fill the stadium up. 😊

    Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    Good response. I guess then for me the Tech tribe is a little too nebulous of a family unit to go out and get a yellow jacket tattoo.

    TV Series Not Worth Finishing

    I love Jodi Foster also but felt like they wasted her talent with a poorly written script that took too long to develop and struggled to maintain suspense.

    Agree. My favorite was the first. Very intense suspense.

    Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    I would be curious as to what people think being a fan means. I have pondered this in myself and it always begs the question for me, “Is there any reason for an intelligent, well-adjusted adult to be a fan?” I honestly don’t mean that to be as snarky as that sounds. When I was a young child I...

    TV Series Not Worth Finishing

    Here are three more…. “Stranger Things” had promise but after the first season it felt kind of pedestrian and I just lost interest. “Downton Abbey” was engaging at first with its understated British melodrama but became tedious and sloppy towards it final seasons. “Lovecraft Country” really...

    TV Series Not Worth Finishing

    Yeah, that was the point but after a while it gets to be fun to just bash how much bad TV is out there. By my estimate there are about 500 bad series for every really good one. The ones that start well, and give you false hope, are really infuriating.

    Baye Declares for NBA; Retaining Eligibility

    Fingers crossed for returning to school, especially for Ndongo.

    TV Series Not Worth Finishing

    I thought the Jodie Foster one spent too much time treading water and when it got to the end had minimal payoff. I actually liked the Vince Vaughn ending better after a somewhat agonizing journey to get there. But, again, each season is its own thing so easier to tell myself to hang in there...

    Conference Realignment

    An important factor in ranking academic institutions is examining how well the school does with alumni engagement, and, in turn, the level of giving back to the institution.

    TV Series Not Worth Finishing

    I love loved the first season. None that came after were worth watching, though, to be fair, each one is a complete story line so they mercifully end without dragging on year after year.

    Conference Realignment

    Four generations of my family have attended either Emory or Tech feeling that they were by far the two best schools in the state. There was no reason to leave the state to join an Ivy.

    2024 Schedule Difficulty - Projections per CFN

    I don’t think predicting seasons is the point is it? In theory a team could go undefeated against the hardest schedule in the country and that still doesn’t change the objective fact that these were the strongest opponents in the country.

    TV Series Not Worth Finishing

    Yes, some series ought to quit while they are ahead but they drag on and tarnish any good will they initially had with the viewer.
