    An honest-to-Dodd quarterback controversy looms! Chat site fodder forever, or until one of the contenders hits the portal.

    Let's do something different ( Who do you NOT want as a head coach at Tech)

    Bill O’Brien is my ‘not’. I watched him dismantle the Texans because he didn’t know what he didn’t know. His college HC situation at Penn State was IMO easier than some thought. He had a good talent pool of Penn State loyalists, and he could motivate with an ‘us against the world’ line. First...

    I’m the definition of F*** around and find out.

    Interesting thread. I was at Tech 71-76. I used to walk into the stadium late at night and wait for the ghosts to come out. They didn't, but after a few beers, you could hear 'em whisper to you...

    Geoff Collins worst GT coach of all time

    Didn't forget realignment, 33, but you hit the nail on the head with your public embarrassment take. GC's sloganeering BS was infuriating, but the public mockery he induced was intolerable. I understand he and TStan were escorted to their cars after getting canned. Entirely appropriate, IMO.

    Geoff Collins worst GT coach of all time

    Who’s worse, BL or GC? That’s like asking what’s worse, the plague or smallpox. It terms of our program’s history,GC has been far more damaging. The game had already changed, then NIL came along. We needed an extraordinary coach for our program. Instead, we got a 2-bit carnival barker, a...

    Time for schadenfreude

    ….and we didn’t have to watch Duzzi and Coach Voldemort ‘shake’ hands after the game.

    HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    I was on the Prime Time bandwagon early, but not so much now. He doesn't have to worry much about keeping players academically eligible where he is. That wouldn't be the case at GT. And I really don't want BOB. I watched him destroy the Houston Texan roster. It'll take a decade for them to...

    Happy with the last two days? Show it with some $s.

    Website only mentions contribution by check. You can't do an ATF?

    Deion Sanders On The Flats?

    The Deion-to-AzState rumors are swirling out west. He’s perfect fit for Atlanta, but the Sun Devils wave enough money under his nose, we’ll be a day late and a dollar short.

    Deion/ GT having discussion?

    The more I think about a Deion hire, the more I like it. But I bet we’ll end up with Bill O’Brien.

    Time to break in a new uniform thread - 2022 edition

    Oh, what shall we wear? Black, in mourning for what was once a fine football program.

    Random question. What is the loudest you've heard Bobby Dodd Stadium or The Thrillerdome in person? I'll start.

    At BDS, reacting to GT’s fumble recovery in our end zone to seal the win over FSU in November 2018. Miracle, it was not. Our DB put his helmet on the ball and sent it flying from the RBs arms into history.

    Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    You'd be surprised. I live in Corpus Christi & I've heard more than one person conflate Megatron with the Flexbone. Then again, one of 'em also thought my GT logo ballcap was GP for Gregory-Portland, a local high school.

    Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    Me too. It’s hope. That’s what conmen count on. What we need from a HC is, “Work hard. Stay humble. Know your role. Let your play do the talking.” What we got was, “Blahblah blah Waffle House blah blah Morpheus blah blah blah blah.”

    Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    Anger rather than interest, Augie. Big talkers and sloganizers who can’t deliver infuriate me, and from what I’ve seen on this board, I’m not alone.

    Collins says players have 'chip on their shoulder'

    “Collins says..” is no longer a phrase which commands my interest.

    I was in town and went to that game! Glad to see Buck back in the Show.

    CPJ HOF

    Stubborn, combative, brilliant, and very no-nonsense, CPJ was a great fit for how I saw our alma mater and its students.

    I’d vote for him as many times as they’d let me!

    Season Ticket Renewal Has Started

    As much as I hate to admit this - no. It’s not worth the flight from SoTx to Atl, because I already see plenty of good people poorly led during the work week.
