True. If my in state son didn’t get into he would have gone to Bama for basically free. Every week he’d get another email from Bama throwing more bennies his way. They are loaded with money and actually know how to build an enthusiastic alumni base. Admitting the world over your own isn’t...

My point for starting the ”admissions” topic was simple - when GT pisses off its fans and alums who then stop giving it makes no matter who the AD is. JBatt as the new AD needs to understand that there is a fundamental flaw at GT that makes his job of raising money very very hard. I’m in rural...

There’s the rub. We are bringing in students who have zero interest in sports let alone GT sports. There is no gimmick promotion to change a person raised for 18/19 years in a non-sports family or non-college sports part of the country into a rabid fan. GT has proven this over the past 2...

This is obviously true but GT just won’t say it. They should say it if that’s the practice and explain it so 18 year old students understand that they aren’t being rejected by the team they grew up cheering on but instead are being asked to redshirt. Right now, the message is - we will take...

#2 is not an option with the way admissions are going. The powers to be are not interested in building a future alumni or fan base. Decades of GT families are being cut off at the knees so we can admit the world. And we see the results in lack of alumni support right now. GT is reaping what...

Clutch is his middle name.

I traded a $300 cable/internet/landline bill during football season due to getting fiber in the neighborhood. Went with youtube tv and it’s been perfect. Haven’t had an issue. My concern was my internet speed before fiber which is why I didn’t switch earlier. I did a channel comparison and I...

Faulkner can get us in 2 TE sets which will open the outside passing game. We basically went from a total option team to a total 4 wide passing scheme. There are a lot of in between variations that utilize both the option schemes and deep passing schemes. UGA has shown the last few games how...

As far as I’m concerned we have zero OLine starters because they have not been a productive group. Key is bringing in bodies and let the top 5 emerge. At this point no one on the entire team should have a starting job. Let them all compete and the best ones at each position get the snaps...

I think we finally have a staff of football guys rather than cheerleaders. I’ve been harsh on Key not giving the previous guy a code red, but he’s earning me back (although the scoreboard is really all I care about after 4 years of word diarrhea). One game I seriously thought Marco Coleman was...

I hear you man. McCollum is a very good college receiver. But, we only know that because he got snaps. If he were sitting in the bench at Bama we wouldn’t know he was solid. My entire point is there are a lot of talented players but only a very few ever get consistent snaps. Whoever we have...

I never understand the thought process of “these guys gotta step up“ when you are talking about guys who don’t get snaps. How can you produce if you don‘t get snaps? White was a solid player who produced. He produced because he was in the game. If he had gotten hurt early everyone would be...

Y’all aren’t seeing what’s in front of you. Expansion is inevitable. With the expanded playoffs and the money, school exposure, and meaningful games, the playoffs will expand further beyond 12 and the SEC and BIG will want a bigger piece of the pie so they’ll expand to get more playoff teams...

Hall of Fame caliber? Come on now. These are mostly young guys. Hall of Fame means they need to do it longer than a few years.

And he’s done nothing since he left GT.

I don’t disagree about RB. But DB’s are easy to replace. We easily replaced guys who started for years. And in all this I’m talking about college ball not the NFL. The NFL is completely different. But in college, the only positions that make a difference are QB and OLine. We’ve stunk for 5...

WR’s and DB’s are a dime a dozen. Their are thousands of high school and portal players who are 5’11 to 6’3 who are fast and can jump and are willing to risk injury and long lasting joint pain for the hope of making money and becoming famous. Sure, you have the freaks like Calvin and Deion who...

Losing a WR is not that worrisome. They are a dime a dozen, even McCollum. Any receiver who gets consistent snaps from the slot will produce. We’ve seen it every year with Brown, then McGowan the McCollum. There are plenty of fast short dudes willing to put their body at risk. We’ll be...

And that’s a good thing. I hope it continues.

I’m saying Georgia Tech football has had a consistent problem regarding the OLine. We obviously have been very poor at recruiting the right players to fix the consistent issue. Therefore, we have a few options to include getting better at picking the players who will play better or bring in...
