    UGa legislature at it again

    "Send me to Hell or New York City, it's all the same to me." Forced by the government and employment to spend several years outside the South. Love to visit other parts of the country for snow skiing, trout fishing, friends, etc. But it's going to take a hell of a lot of global warming to get...

    Spring Practice 2016 News & Notes

    Last year should have taught us all that the usual metrics about the OL doesn't apply in this offense. Last year this time I think we would have all said that we have size, experience, and numbers coming back on the OL. Didn't matter. Maybe you only need two good OL guys in this offense. The...

    Spring Practice 2016 News & Notes

    I, for sure, and probably most others here forgot that Tech ALWAYS crushes your dreams academically and athletically. But then later fulfills them in ways you never expected.

    AJC B-Back Preview

    I predict that end of Spring Practice we will know about what we know now. Somebody will get banged up and not be effective, somebody will have a tough Spring and fumble a couple of times too much, somebody will struggle for the first three weeks and then look like a stud in the Spring Game...

    Spring Competition

    I am, or I was, a hell of an engineer before I retired. Now I'm whatever my wife needs me to be today: lawn boy, cook, dog walker, driver, gofer.

    OL

    I worked with a guy once that raised fence straddling to an art form. I will never forget a quote from him in a meeting to evaluate some new software. He said, "I think that we think that this may have some long range potential." Not do diss your abilities 4shotB, but you've got some work...

    NFL Regional Combine

    If you want to see Milton's speed, watch him run down Chubbs in the first qtr of the 2014 game. Chubbs broke a long run down the sideline, and Milton came across the field from a terrible angle and knocked him out at the 2 yd line. Two plays later Chubb fumbles and we recover. When Milton was...

    Sisson Kelly Rhino The Goose recovering the blocked kick against uga in OT in '99 that meant Manget got to make the next try.

    Spring Competition

    Pure speculation: does Quaid get some time at A Back because of blocking like Lucas Cox did? In 2014, CPJ wore down lots of teams in the second half with waves of fresh A Backs. It does look like we have the numbers there to be relatively fresh late in the season.

    I haven't been this excited about the players we have coming back since this time last year.

    2016 Class Analysis + Player Ranking

    My point was not to bash Ball but rather to show the differences between CPJ and Gailey. CPJ saw that he needed a different skill set at QB than Lee had and made the change. Gailey never did. That Ball had suffered trauma only emphasizes the point.

    2016 Class Analysis + Player Ranking

    The game where Reggie Ball trotted out the back of the end zone under little to no pressure to give VT a safety because he wasn't paying attention to where he was on the field is the day he should have been benched and never allowed to play QB again. I know Ball gave his all, but Chan should...

    2016 Class Analysis + Player Ranking

    AMEN. The fact that CPJ essentially told Lee to look elsewhere while Gailey stuck with Ball for four years as his completion percentage went down every year (with Calvin on the team!!!) tells you who is the better coach. I go along with Gump. How well you recruited has to be a function of...

    Broncos WR Demaryius Thomas: Top 4 Games at Georgia Tech

    Thomas catches that ball, we beat uga, they don't go to a bowl, fire Richt and hire Muschamp. Oh what might have been. For want of a catch a kingdom was lost.

    Sugiura: 3 things to know about new Georgia Tech assistant Ron West

    Chicken or the egg. The reason teams were able to sell out was we were not making them pay for it in the running game. Hit some long A and B back runs, and suddenly the pass protection gets better as defenses have to play less aggressively. An almost 5 yds guaranteed with Days/Laskey behind...

    112 Years of GT Football - How Bad Were We Last Year?

    Humans want to see patterns in randomness, so take this for what it's worth. Since Dodd, there seems to be some sort of 4-6 year periodicity. That would fit nicely with the pattern of our recruiting. We get a good class in, it takes them a year or two to get their feet on the ground so we...

    2016 National Championship: ACC vs SEC

    I wouldn't tell this to my Clemson friends, but they were out coached. I would bet the two busted coverages came because Bama picked up something Clemson was doing (or not doing) and exploited it. Same for the onside kick. I thought up to that point, Clemson was in control of the game, but...
