    Article from Augusta Chronicle - Augusta gave Georgia Tech its most successful scholar

    No, we are not talking about Supersizethatorder-mutt but this is an interesting article about the origins of George P. Burdell. It appears in the September 18, 2018 online edition. Hope you enjoy reading this history as much as I did...

    ACC Discussion

    Banks played in more games that Moore, 14 vs. 8. I agree that sitting out a season helps both him get acclimated to GT while providing a development opportunity that will pay off in his remaining seasons.

    GT is ranked #19 in the country

    If you are on LinkedIn, you may have seen this article. This ranking is of top colleges for your money. One of the metrics is how well schools enable students to repay their loans. Interesting article in Time Magazine that can be found at: http://time.com/money/best-colleges/?news Without...

    Article Haywood and Pastner Want To Go Fast

    I understand your point however I think of the 2018-2019 rosters (Men's BB Roster), 8-10 guys could get at least 5 minutes per game if we transitioned to a running game. I think it would definitely help with recruiting if this style of play was used. From a fan's perspective, it would be...

    Fantastic article about Dedrick Mills

    It's ironic that there is now a change to the substance abuse policy. Article from the 8/8 AJC: https://www.ajc.com/sports/college/georgia-tech-adjusts-substance-abuse-policy-for-athletes/XfjvFGWn83Cd8ZmWLtw4mL/ Interesting takeaway from the article: "Under the new policy, former Tech...

    “What’ll ya have?

    I'm sure at some point in time, many of us have been to "The Greasy V". A good article in the AJC about them celebrating their 90th year of operations. https://www.ajc.com/entertainment/dining/the-varsity-turns/jr5gVAXtsUIIBQCJyu49wI/

    How the ACC sees Tech

    I'm of the opinion that while creating a soccer program probably would not break even with respect to costs initially, it could be leveraged to generate additional interest in GT. When you consider the amount of club soccer teams/players in the metro ATL area, having a D1 program in in downtown...

    Preseason Depth Chart

    Anyone concerned that overall, our OL is somewhat 'light in the pants'? I can see the advantage of a lighter, quicker OL between the 20's given our blocking schemes however in the red zone, you like having a little more 'beef' in the line.

    ACC Discussion

    In fairness, the coaches simply have to 'suck it up'. If the player has successfully satisfied academic requirements to graduate prior to his playing eligibility ending, why should the coach prohibit the student athlete from attending whatever school they wish to attend?

    Ideas to raise our visibility ?

    I don't profess to know the startup and continuing costs for soccer programs but this idea would definitely help to capture more local mindshare. Atlanta is one of the top youth soccer markets in the country. The ACC historically has had some of the top soccer teams in the nation. This...

    So if JO5 leaves us, what comes next? Do we have a target for his spot?

    My preference would be to hold the scholarship for the class of 2019. As others have mentioned, the fact that an little known 3 star got the opportunity to play right away and excel to a point of making himself eligible for the draft after 2 seasons will appeal to some recruits. I'd like JO...

    Spring Game Roll Call

    In fairness, I believe the softball game was scheduled before the spring game. Perhaps someone should have checked for conflicts before scheduling the spring game.

    CPJ on 12:00p segment of Buck and Kincaide on 680theFan on 4/19

    They replayed the interview. Other nuggets include: -There is constant teaching, both film and on the field. -Spring is a time where everyone gets to play. It's different in the fall when they break into the regulars and scout team. -CNW has made good progress installing the defense thus...

    CPJ on 12:00p segment of Buck and Kincaide on 680theFan on 4/19

    Pretty generic thus far, asking about HS players preparedness for GT, how are things with Marshall, new jerseys. Lasted about 8 minutes.
