  1. Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    Agreed. But, again, it’s a GT self induced problem. Our attendance problem is twofold - 1) we stink, 2) we are an international school hence lack of student and now modern alum don’t care because other than a few fleeting years in their youth they have zero ties to GT or Atlanta. My kid is a...
  2. Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    Why do our own fans and alum buy this narrative that GT is broke and it’s our fans fault for everything? GT has billions and is a economic machine yet our own fans buy this naive argument that GT is broke. Maybe it’s time we are real with each other - GT doesn’t care to be better and will use...
  3. Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    So you telling me he can’t talk to high school coaches or assistants? You telling me he can’t get in his car and drive all over this state getting in with the people who help the players make decisions? Do you know there is more to recruiting than talking to players right? Some of you are so...
  4. Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    If he wants to see GT succeed what he should be doing is nothing but recruiting. Leave the practice sessions to the real coaches. Let Long run the offense and let Tillman run the defense. It’s that simple. Any coaching or preseason prep by Collins should be ignored. We saw in full view what...
  5. Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    So, now we have guys posting about ignoring others and posters telling us that retreads like Chaney are gonna turn Collins around. Collins hired Chaney for one reason - to keep the fraternity going so Chaney will help him land a job next year.
  6. QB room

    I get that it’s the majority opinion to bang on the OLine and Patenaude. But, am I the only one who saw Sims completely miss wide open guys, mainly throwing the ball at the feet of RB’s? None of that is on the OLine or the OC. Sims has been given 2 seasons of free ball with no pressure. You...
  7. Conference Realignment

    This isn’t 1980 anymore. What’s the difference in cost and time flying to play at BC, ND, or Miami vs. Northwestern, Ohio State, or Penn State. No difference. Atl to Miami is 662 miles. Atl to Columbus is 567. Atl to BC is 1,076 miles. Atl to Northwestern is 733. Purdue is closer to Atl...
  8. Conference Realignment

    I’m hoping you are correct. I really do. We need our version of Slive and Kramer who combined built the SEC empire who within a decade will dominate football, basketball, and baseball.
  9. Conference Realignment

    I don’t think anyone is losing sleep over this stuff. It’s just an interesting topic to discuss during a boring off season. We are a 3 win program so no one is expecting anything one way or the other. No matter if we stay or go we are a bottom to mid level program. We are all hoping we get...
  10. Conference Realignment

    I don’t know man. He had the platform yesterday to explain it and provide a blueprint forward and shine a good light for the ACC. Instead, he became a meme. And this wasn’t done by the SEC press. These cutting comments are from local ACC reporters. Like I said previously it’s gonna get ugly...
  11. Conference Realignment

    This is where too many people don’t think past the present. Sure, they were told that right now. But that has no bearing on the future. What if I told you that USC and UCLA were told not now by the BIG 2 years ago? A month ago if someone posted that the BIG would be taking USC/UCLA in the...

    Anyone who ever says anything along the lines of “it’s for the kids” etc. is either corrupt to the core or dumber than a box of rocks. I refuse to believe Phillips is dumb.
  13. Conference Realignment

    Nope. And I hope I live to see the day the NCAA no longer exists. It’s one of the most corrupt organizations I can think of who pretend they care about ”student athletes”. I’d rather they just be honest and admit all they care about is money and their freebies. They are all hypocrites who...
  14. Conference Realignment

    I hear you on all that. We do just disagree. It’s a constant drip, drip, drip and has been for awhile so I’m not expecting it to stop, especially until 2036. I think you are putting way too much stock into the here and now that schools haven‘t been invited as of today, like Oregon. As of 3...
  15. Conference Realignment

    Teams will have somewhere to land just like OU, Texas, USC, and UCLA did. The problem many of you have is that you believe if it’s not in the media it isn’t happening. All 4 of those schools worked a deal under cover and everyone was suprised. How many times do you need to be surprised before...
  16. Conference Realignment

    Define “anytime soon”? DRad gave his opinion. Great. But he is not one of the money guys. To believe the GOR will hold schools hostage until 2036 is living in a fantasy world. And no, I have no clue how or when teams will get out of the GOR (I believe it will be renegotiated within 5...
  17. Conference Realignment

    Whatever then. All we have are opinions because none of us are in the room. You, me, and every other poster. You act shocked that a message board is full of opinions. And in no way am I acting like the smartest guy here. But I’m not in denial like you who believes nothing will change until...
  18. Conference Realignment

    Agreed. But if you think everyone is just going to wait 15 years you are crazy. The money is too enormous to wait. Both in season games and an expanded playoffs are worth billions and the power brokers know it. I don’t know the how’s or when’s but I also have watched enough history to know...
  19. Conference Realignment

    I generally agree with you but this statement I outlined above doesn’t jive with what has been happening. Sure, fans are discussing this stuff now but it will die down once camp starts. Think about how the OU, Texas, USC, UCLA moves were made - all in silence. That’s how it will happen. I...
  20. Conference Realignment

    What you said makes perfect sense in a normal world. College football is not the normal world. It’s been about 2 weeks since the USC/UCLA announcement was made public. So to say that no ACC team has challenged the GOR yet is some proof that they won’t is a little premature. I understand a...
