Simply follow the posts on this page by me, Northeast Stinger, and then you. I'm confident based on the usual quality of your posts, that you will see how I might have concluded you might have been minimizing Ross's success and excusing CGC's lack thereof, because of Ralph and George. Having...

Who do you think was responsible for Ralph and George being here!? Who do you think was responsible for Pnut and Thacker being here? Re-read Northeast Stinger's post above. Trying to compare these two HCs is an exercise in absurdity, and this from someone who thinks Collins on D and especially...

CGC may or may not survive this, but puhleeeeze don't compare him to Bobby Ross.

One point about the head to head records of the ACC vs SEC. This may surprise some based on the oft mentioned complete dominance of the sec vs ACC in football. If you include the 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, and 2020s so far, the sec has won 62.5% of the games. Idk, but this doesn't sound much like...

Can't argue with that, but....have you ever tried to sell your house with the front porch falling down!? The President of Notre Dame and Stanford seem to think the front porch has value, even though the kitchen and bathrooms are more important.

Prob....if I ask him....c'mon, that's my point.

As a dirt poor Co-op student, I can tell you a great deal about "work". I also knew a lot of football players at Tech and their rigorous schedules were nothing like a regular student. Do you even remember what it was like on Saturday mornings after playing even high school football Friday night...

It's not semantics RJ and your comment about him spending a 100% of his time on athletics is patently absurd. No I didn't say or actually believe such nonsense. When a leader of an organization doesn't communicate his position on an important topic, the void will be filled with things he doesn't...

In more recent times at Tech however, players who avg 1000 on SATs with a 3.0 gpa are not morons(although far behind Tech's reg student). If SOWEGA's "pretty smart friend" had made it in, and had to endure a football player's demands without assistance, he too might have been tapping your arm...

The Presidents at virtually every big time winner in D-1 is definitely involved in the football program, especially during times the program is floundering. What are we hearing during our time of floundering and cFB undergoing extreme chaos, from Cabrera....nada. Managing the entire organization...

Talent vs coaching--talent can and does have an impact on a high level of penalties, questionable time-outs, and overall disorganization, but only in a minimal sense. These problems are caused by coaching for the most part. Think 80/20 rule. Our kids the last 3 years have been mid 3* players...

Wonder how this writer knows this when his peers knew nada about Tex/OK and USC/UCLA ?

The sec is not losing their top their teams.

Yeah, that's why I emphasized your "not yet". The NIL/TP is the biggest issue imo, and no, the younger alumni are really unlikely to support the program much. As for the BIG, I wouldn't underestimate our academic rep, location (recruits being able to see a BIG play and come home to play in front...

Good post Vespidae. My take having lived thru the '79-'83 period too, is that the current money grab of the sport is a much bigger obstacle for GT than the previous period, and that says a lot because the previous period was definitely dire. Your "not yet" is the key. Chaos tends to be...

Nothing about negotiations to switch, but a great deal about the very real threat to the football program with historical changes happening, ok?

Our Prez's silence is deafening.

Can you imagine wrecking balls on HBDS? Or, Georgia Military College being a feeder program to UGA, or Coastal Community College of Mississippi being a feeder school to Ole Miss, or UGA having a Engineering Program? Oh wait. Or, not that long ago cFB having free agency and highest bidder mania...

True enough on both fronts. Now, how realistic is being a member of an expanded BIG or sec?

Not an end all solution, but a significant stop gap would be: GT to merge with Georgia State, and add ND and UCF or Houston to the ACC. Plenty of advantages to both moves.
