    The reports of the TO's death have been grossly exaggerated

    It's getting a bit chippy in this thread. Remember what the great philosopher Dr. Suess said about the TO and other events of the past: "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." I think we would all do well to reflect upon this and take a deep breath. ;)

    The reports of the TO's death have been grossly exaggerated

    Great post. However, my impression is that we did not see this play out here with the acknowledged chessmaster if you will, especially after people adjusted to it However, I think the recent 3 years have numbed our senses and has clouded our perception of how things were at the end. I think we...

    The reports of the TO's death have been grossly exaggerated

    Sorry - I didn't see that. If everything else is equivalent (ceterus paribus) then it comes down to just this one thing - the team that makes the fewest mistakes (turnovers, penalties,etc.) on the day that they play. imo. Neither team has an advantage based on their scheme all other things...

    The reports of the TO's death have been grossly exaggerated

    First you have to tell me which one has the better coach and staff.

    If a change is made...

    It will be a task no doubt but I'm pretty sure we will never hear that phrase again.

    Incentive Based Contracts

    That's it???? heck, if I ruled the world siestas from 1-2 would be mandatory and alcohol would be free. I think my platform would gather more votes. ;)

    The Thing I Hate The Most

    I have seen guys like Coach Collins before in my career. Men who were in over their heads big time and had moved up to a level beyond their capabilities. I think you are very kind here...it's not his personality that keeps him from going off (imo). It's just the fact that he DOESN"T know what to...

    The Thing I Hate The Most

    I was at the game with my group of GT buddies. We all got out in 81 or 82. We get together for a game about every other year or so. None of us live in the ATL. We have not been to a game since the COVID thing. We picked this game 2 years ago due to the novelty of an SEC team. All of us arrived...

    Any news?? (stage 3: press coverage)

    Wouldn't it be great if we (GT) had a business school to teach people how to make sound economic decisions, negotiate, evaluate ROI and ROCE, etc. instead of just focusing on engineering and architecture? If their business acumen is an indicator, it's a good thing that the faculty and staff at...

    GT Peer Group & Path to Success

    I clicked the link. He is an "entrepreneur" in upstate NY who, among other things, has interests in "waste management". I am not wet behind the ears and have seen several Sopranos episodes so... in the Northeast isn't "waste management" a code word of sorts for, perhaps, more nebulous ways of...

    Any news?? (stage 3: press coverage)

    I wonder if the transfer portal will provide some incentive for the players to play all out that maybe didn't exist before. Now that you can transfer and play immediately I would think you would want good film individually even if the team is tanking as a whole? Just a thought. We have seen...

    Bobby Ross. Although he is probably too smart to take the job twice. ;)

    Thacker should be done

    I am sure letting him go is the answer to all our problems. Let's roll.

    Any news?? (stage 3: press coverage)

    i ddon't think this is unique to Tech or Collins. I have seen it before. This feels like the TV special where Geraldo Rivera opened a safe or time capsule only to find there wasn't anything in it. Does anyone remember the specifics of this event? Had the exact same let-down feel as this thread.

    The economy? I don't know for sure but just spitballlin' here like most.

    That should be Geoff’s last game as head coach

    You get bonus points for quoting Cormac McCarty an NCFOM. Great book and author. “I think by the time you're grown you're as happy as you're goin to be. You'll have good times and bad times, but in the end you'll be about as happy as you was before. Or as unhappy. I've knowed people that just...

    That should be Geoff’s last game as head coach

    Totally understand your point of view. I was at the game yesterday. Afterwards, talked to many, many fans filing out of the stadium, at a restaurant and bar last night, in the hotel lobby and restaurant this morning.....there was not one single person that felt like a change wasn't needed. I...

    That should be Geoff’s last game as head coach

    Huh...I, for one, am stunned. The clarity and relevance of this post is a breath of fresh air as (far as I know) none of us had thought of these things. This is a wake up call to all who would call themselves fans. Thanks for sharing this.
