This has nothing to do with our schedule not being hard. This is why the Coastal sucks. All these teams play no one out of conference. We do. But that doesn’t mean we play a hard schedule over all. I have no problem scheduling tough games and losing. We will lose to UGA, Clemson, and Ole...
Good lord. The schedule is hard because we suck, not because it’s actually hard. Sure, just like every year we play Clemson and UGA. But outside of those it’s not that hard. Sure, we’ll lose a bunch of them but that’s because of us not them. Seriously now, UGA and Clemson are in a different...
If the Braves were to ever do one of those crazy 14 year contracts for 300 mil it should be Soto. He is a generational talent. Having him and Acuna for next decade would be awesome. I’m sure he’ll end up pinstripes or Dodger Blue though. The Nats stink so Soto has no support so he’s just...
That’s what I was saying. Taquon’s play in the option is the same level as Sims from the shotgun. Both were/are inconsistent, have not improved their play from year to year, and they both give us a few highlight reel plays a couple times a game. But the inconsistency of play is very similar.
I agree with you except we’ve already been told everything. We don’t need another season to know. That’s my point. Our expectations have been so lowered by this coach over 36 months that we have GT diehard fans saying that even if we finish a 4th season under .500 that the coach should be...
I’m all about optimism but….
I think we all agree GT should be a 7-8 win type program with some years jumping to 9 and injury riddled years we drop to 5. That’s where we should be and have been under Ross, O’Leary, Gailey, and Johnson. Collins has single handedly lowered all our expectations...
As someone above mentioned we see this all the time in sports. A team that doesn’t know how to lose so the minute they get pushed they react poorly and get off the rails fast. Examples I can remember are the UNLV team who ran into Duke. Or the Pistons when Jordan got over the hump. Usually...
Not everyone needs to see half a decade of mediocre results to pull the trigger. FSU cares about athletics. They’ve done it in football quickly and now baseball. They may be down in both but they’ll be back in both because they want to be back.
Yes. We are doing it right now with ND. They have the big money TV contract for football yet we are not only allowing them to play all other sports under our banner but we begged them to do it. So there you go. Are you going to lead a boycott of ND since they use that NBC to upgrade hoops...
Parity isn’t a goal of the schools or the new alignment. It will be a by product which I will enjoy watching. It’s like NIL exposing the man behind the curtain of the NCAA. It wasn’t the intent but the by product has been de-nutting the NCAA, which I’m all for.
The goal is simple - more...
I have no clue but it will be a 10-15 year morphing like one of the posters above described. But did you see how the powers got Oklahoma and Texas to the SEC and no one saw it coming. That’s how real business is handled. The problem is as a society we have been fed so much garbage that people...
Red, I know we basically agree on this stuff. But just for argument sakes, the above is based on something long gone from college athletics and that’s honesty. That’s where I disagree with just about everyone here because I no longer believe anything in this system is honest and I don’t trust...
I never said Bama was the only team buying players. I said Bama under Saban has built the best money laundering scheme. Huge difference. Other teams buy players but they either get caught or do it so haphazardly that they don’t get the on field benefit from it, ala Texas. Look at Auburn...
I totally want to be in tier 1 but unfortunately our school has shown they do not want to do what it takes to be competitive. I’ve been screaming for years we should buy players under the table and give them grades. Out of the thousands of students at GT we can afford to hide 35-45 morons who...
What? The reason Tennessee or Georgia Tech for that matter hasn’t touched Bama in years is because Saban has the best (Kirby on his heels) money laundering scheme under that system. That’s why Saban is whining about NIL. He has just lost one of his best advantages and that was under the table...
The “shepherd” is the same we’ve had the past 20 years - money. Now the money has morphed from bowl payouts and regional TV contracts to national networks and stadium owners. Now we are moving into the streaming era. But make no mistake their are many shepherds out there working behind the...
The assumption is that the vast amount of 5 and 4 stars will sign with the schools that get on TV and have the most NIL in the top tier. That’s the basis of this entire discussion. If schools break away and offers 6 and 7 figures for NIL and they only get 3 stars taking those offers then of...
