I would like to add a charge of “conspiracy to destroy a basketball program” with a penalty of $10 million to go into a NIL fund for players. 😁

Even if he is not the best bball coach on the planet, THIS is exactly why I appreciate Coach Pastner. He gets GT and he really wants to be here. I know that’s not enough reason to keep him—he has to win games too—but it is the reason that I might give him a little more leash than others...

This is great info, and largely confirms what we knew coming in--our talent is mostly at the skill position and not in the trenches. We really need some big guys to step up their play if we want to continue to improve. For the OL, I wonder if some of it is the relative talent of the interior...

Whew! A lot closer than it should have been, but so nice to win two in a row! Go Jackets!

JACKETS!

This is our year! 😉

Nate McCollom for Head Coach! (wait, is this the right thread?)

I like the thought experiment and I too would be interested to see what fans think about the kind of coach that could succeed here. My first thought about your scale is that--and I am not trying to be a cop-out here--I honestly think a 12-point total coach is not going to be enough to succeed...

So...to summarize then...no news?

I have $ome idea$ about how we can compete in thi$ new world of college football, but, unfortunately, I don't have much to contribute. When $chool$ are paying their head coach double what our entire $taff i$ paid, then that might point toward$ a good an$wer.

YELLOW!

This confirms what we have been seeing with our WR. The potential may be there, but I think even they would agree that they can play better. By the way, I really appreciate all this data. It's not perfect (how could Tatum be our highest graded defender when it was obvious he missed his man on...

There have been a number of players that were getting hyped that have been MIA (hurt, I am assuming): including Blackburn, Dylan Leonard, Kevin Harris (a few good reps against Clemson, none vs. WCU?), DJ Moore, Ahmari Harvey, Kaleb Edwards, Kenny Bennett, Grey Carroll, RJ Adams, Lockett and...

True, but interestingly, the coaches saw him as the next best option and moved Eley to THomas' spot and put Tatum in Eley's spot. That move is a sign that 1) Tatum is definitely our next best LB, and 2) our depth is still thin. D Knight was backing up Thomas against Clem's son.

There is not a lot that these two games can tell us about the defense (one being against a top 5 team and one against lower level competition), but a few things already stand out: 1. We intercepted the ball 3 times in the WCU game. We only had three interceptions ALL YEAR last year. 2...

I usually don't wade into uniform debates, but I have to say...these look really, really good.

Very interesting. The guys that didn’t play well on defense didn’t play often. On offense…well, it’s obvious some guys played too much or perhaps we just don’t have better players in those spots.

3–Deebo, Kelly, and Franklin, with Howard, Sturdy and Smith all above 6.5

It’s going to be close, I think. Do you know who our leading returning scorer is? Sturdivant. But…my best guess would indeed be Deebo.

The fact that there is enough "proof" for both sides of this argument reveals what is closest to the truth...Pastner's time as GT head basketball coach has been up-and-down. He hasn't shown an ability to CONSISTENTLY recruit at a high level or coach his teams into the dance. I, like many of...
