heck of a play by 17

For what it's worth, I also thought it was a reasonable question

52 does a fantastic job reading and screaming downhill to bend it outside, and then misses the tackle. Don't know if Brant is there that fast.

This may seem trite, but it's because nobody else did the rest of last year. The UNC film was available right away, yet gt's offense was effective the rest of the year. It's possible that after 30 years, UNC (of all teams) finally figured out THE way to defend coach Johnson's offense, but...

...jeez. He's got 3 years and all of his levers are already full sized. He doesn't have to relearn his body every year during high school like most guys do who end up that size, he can just focus on gains in performance and technique. He should be ULTRA coordinated by the time he's a senior.

FWIW, I think one thing that's getting undervalued is that Jordan is more of a "take hits" kind of QB than JT, so playing them early in the season ALSO means that he's fresher than he will be later in the season, and we saw last year against VT that a fresh Jordan can be a punisher in the run game.

I think those may be Junior High highlights, but I could be wrong

FTR, it's the lid, really. The white helmet with the mustard/gold GT pops a million times better than the gold helmet with the white GT.

You should know that 100% of the time, I read your posts in Owen Wilson's voice.

FWIW, that's how GT signed parker braun. He played in a hitting system, transferred high schools and played in a grabbing system, and said "no thanks" and signed with GT

I mean, the rolling ball of butcher knives thing is about the greatest compliment ever.

The duds you wore in 2006 against UVa are some of the sharpest uni's I've eve seen (iiuc, they are throwbacks from the 1968-1971 seasons) If those were your permanent home uniforms, you'd have a razor sharp look. The 1990 era, i prefer the gold pants to the white, but those pale compared to...

Cut blocks matter, folks

I know you guys love the 2 tone color scheme/always wear white/traditional thing, but from a newish fans perspective....it doesn't pop. Maybe it's me being colorblind or not growing up on it, but white and gold are too similar to not have a 3rd color. Texas can pull it off. Penn State can pull...

Huh, I feel like you guys are far less impressed with Jordan's speed than I am. No, he's not as fast as Thomas, but I'm pretty confident he's at least as fast as Tevin Washington, who had plenty of big plays on keepers. He's also more likely than either to run through an arm tackle and turn a 4...

psst...what about a flute busting prussian?

Looks like with PSU he played the "miami" set, with the deep MLB (although it looked like initially they came out in a 4-3 under)

Quality post, thanks! FWIW, many teams walk up the SS on us, so I wouldn't be surprised if what you guys end up aligned in is closer to a 4-4 (although some teams will have a look that mirrors ours on defense, with the MLB set deep, 7 or 8 yards behind the LOS in an effort to keep him clean and...

Thx. X's and Os, what do you guys do? What does a successful UT game look like? What's your nightmare scenario? Tell me about your OL. For gt, I'll assume you know the offense. Defensively, it's a bend but don't break scheme focused on not giving up the big play, and content to make you...
