As mentioned the NCAA has basically nothing to do with FBS football and actually gets 0% of its revenue from FBS games. The NCAA gets its money from college basketball and in particular March Madness. That accounts for around 80% of its revenue. The P5 + ND control college football and make...

Good look at how chaotic it could get https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/we-found-the-perfect-recipe-for-college-football-chaos/

Cincy is in a funny spot. The CFP will look for almost any reason not to include them. UGA is in win or lose. If Bama wins it is in. If it loses then it depends upon what happens with all the other schools. Mich is in with a win. With a loss it would once again depend upon other schools. Ok St...

Mason is graduating and not returning.

There are always multiple variables in play. First, when you are not a destination job (and GT is certainly not) changing coaches after three years is not going to be attractive to other coaches. Second, You as an AD have to balance all the money factors, including the contract. Third, the most...

With the addition of NIL and the changes to the transfer rules this is going to be an every year occurence. 1000+ kids in the portal every year. I think the Dr. Pepper commercial summed it up pretty well. There will be winners and losers in the portal and the winners are more likely to be the...

Nobody has to sit out if they haven't already transferred. With the new rules every SA gets one 'free' transfer where they are eligible immediately. It's only if you transfer more than once that you have to sit a year.

Yes but they finished 6-6 which means we still haven't beaten a P5 opponent with a winning record these last 3 years. Turns out they were highly overranked.

Last week I watched through halftime and then went for a walk with my family. I plan on watching it until halftime and then if I can't take it anymore I will work on putting up Christmas decorations.

Hopefully it will be somewhat better than that, but if we lose by the spread then we are basically at the same differential as last year. If we lose by more than the spread then we will start dipping below last year and if we lose by a margin similar to Clemson 2019 then we are basically back at...

The announcement that CGC will be back is one of the most obvious decisions that was always going to happen. If you look at it rationally, there is no way GT will fire Collins while he is in the 'fully guaranteed' part of his contract. Which also means fans thinking he might be fired if he...

I expect CGC to be here all next season - regardless of the wins/losses. If they fire him before the beginning of his 5th calendar year they have to pay him the full contract. If he starts as coach next season he will finish as coach next season - and likely wouldn't be fired until mid-Decemer...

Can we please stop arguing over Collins and Johnson. That is all basically irrelevant. Johnson hasn't been here for 3 yrs. I wanted Johnson's teams to win every game when he was our coach. I want Collins' teams to win every game now. When Johnson decided to retire it was not a big secret that...

Going to be interesting to see what Pastner does when Bubba comes back and how long it takes Bubba to get into game shape. He played alot of minutes last season. He good for a couple of baskets, really solid ballhandling (was almost 3-1 A:TO for the season and better than 2-1 in ACC play) and...

I want to add context on 2 items that have been discussed. First, recruiting. It has definitely improved since Collins arrived, but let's not overstate how good it has been. 2021 48th 247Sports 49th Rivals (this was a smaller class) 2020 27th, 25th (this is the class that folks are hanging the...

FWIW, this is a good article on the supply and demand of college coaches. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/the-monday-after-college-football-coaching-carousel-inflation-sets-up-for-disappointment/

I don't disagree with a single thing you wrote. This is the path GT chose to take, have to see it to conclusion. I will say, the only nitpick I would add is that the idea can't be 'we will recruit better prospects and that will magically translate to more winning' - which you are not...

if UGA wins by 38 pts or more the scoring margin deficit this season will be larger than it was last season.

I was going to point out this exact metric while I was laughing at the thought that UGA has a 'not good' offense. Third in the country in Offensive efficiency. If you want a more germain stat they are 7th nationally in scoring per game (Pitt is #3, UVA #22, ND is #25). Much like last week...

How many fans truly believe we can get a 'big name' HC. That seems completely unrealistic. I think most GT fans have a very irrational take on how good a job the GT HC job actually is. You have a smaller than average P5 fanbase, a smaller than average P5 budget, and a more restrictive entrance...
