Most students have no interaction with athletes. Other than class, they largely operate 100% outside of "normal" students. Separate gyms, separate dining, etc. Bars are free to all. In my time here, I've never encountered an athlete at a bar or heard of one. The practice schedule is intense...

Attendance correlates highly with non-urban schools. And many athletes want the “college” experience which is more prevalent in college towns than urban ones.

I don't think the failure was "the boosters". I lay the failure squarely on TStan's shoulders. Look, he KNEW CPJ was going to retire. This year or next, it was going to happen. (The GTAA had already tried to force CPJ out, so it was common knowledge they were trying to show him the door.)...

I suspect not. Ever traveled with the basketball team? It's box lunches and set menus at Cracker Barrel. Pretty sad really.

Yes but ... outside of Collins, there were no other candidates. Now, you can ask yourself if we COULD have pursued a number of candidates, but the reality is, no one really wanted the job.

I think it's going to be very challenging. The hiring of Hugh Freeze is an example. John Cohen, Auburn AD, was simply told by one influential booster "Hire Freeze". That's all it took. No search. It was two names and number one said no. Sexual misconduct? Intimidation? No problem. The guy beat...

I‘m hopeful we go after Jay Hickman. A truly innovative genius and funny as hell. But Bill Hagood died, so it’s probably not going to happen.

Dukes of Hazzard? Ok, put a question mark there. Move there or don’t.

Arrests in Cherokee are almost all Atlanta residents. That’s why. As to high ridership, I agree. But outside of rush hours, ridership on the North line isn’t high. I took Marta to the airport since 1986. Would I do it today after 9pm? No. I’d order a private limo or uber.

You can take Marta by bus from Mansell all the way to North Springs and link the train from there. I owned a store at one time at Perimeter Mall. And yes, criminals did smash glass at a neighbor's jewelry store and steal all the display merchandise. It does happen. What folks DON'T talk...

There is actually data to support this in a non-cheeky way. I'm not sure it is still true, but the highest crime on Marta was always at the end stations. That's less true for North Springs because there is no walk up to it, but Chamblee was a war zone. Leakage (aka, theft) at Lenox was off the...

From where? Theres a limit … Hence, the importance of donors.

FWIW, I lived in ATL for 35 years. Alpharetta was fantastic. Key word: WAS. There is so much density and construction, they ruined it. When it takes an hour to drive 3 miles for dinner ... it's over. I loved it. But at this point in my life, there are better places to live.

The top guy at Waffle House contributes about $5M a year to Tech. He was doing that before Geoff and will do it after.

No link. Deep Throat confirmed it.

Long is out.

Not sure if it was mentioned but Del Alexander (WR) is out.

That’s a great question. I don’t think it’s been resolved yet. I could be wrong.

FWIW, Deep Throat messaged me that Key has reached out to Jeremy Pruitt Re DC. Saban said he was the best DC he ever had.

Actually, I do know it for certain. But it's fine. If that's what Key thinks is most important today, it's a business decision.
