    Official MBS Announcement: 5 Games over 5 Years

    Whew. Only one game a year - not a BDS apocalypse. I'll be interested to see what the revenue bump will be, but most of those additional fannies will probably be opposition fans.

    GT to play at MB stadium

    Not comfortable a'tall with many home games played away from campus. I have to fly halfway across the country to come to a game, and when I do, I want to tailgate on campus and walk down the hill to BDS as in the golden days of yore.

    Joe Anoa'i Has Leukemia

    Wow, it's only been about three months since he announced his leukemia had returned. This is one baaaaad man, y'all. Here's hoping Joe has lots of clean blood tests in his future.

    Yomanser's Recruiting Roundup - 2/6/19 First Edition Analysis

    I am rooting really hard for Marco Coleman to succeed in his new job. He was great as a player for the Jackets, and Don Freaking Shula took him in the first round of the NFL draft.

    So how do people feel about Brent Key and Geoff Collins-

    How do people feel? Here's a for-instance. I'm wandering around HEB (Texas equivalent of Publix) this morning, and some gal I don't know spies my GT cap and asks, "What do you think about our new coach?", and it was plain she was stoked about the hire. Turns out her family are sidewalk fans...

    New Chief of Football Staff and Director of Football Operations Hired

    CBG is already gone. IIRC Hewitt's off the books after March this year

    Brent Key; Hiring Details....

    Wow, what a staff to have on the Flats! Get to work, fellas. Clemson game in 8 months.

    GT Picks Up Football Assistant AD

    Wondering if Suddes new job would preclude an Assistant HC position or the like for Brent Key. Could this mean the Key hire isn't happening? Even so, Suddes appears to be another building block in a recruiting-oriented staff.

    Brent Key expected to join Georgia Tech staff

    I’m upgrading my outlook on the CGC regime from ‘hopeful’ to ‘believe’ because of this hire!

    Collins - Expectations and time to get things right?

    Year three will be the acid test for me. CGC's first best recruits should be starting then. But I think there will be some important tells from game one on. Do the defensive players know their assignments? Is the effort there? And do they wrap up when they tackle? On special teams, is our...

    Hype and the GT fanbase

    Thing is, CGC's approach is exactly what I think we need right now. He's presenting GT as a great place to prepare yourself for the NFL and life. We already knew that could be the case, but the HC needs to say it and show how it happens; that's what CGC is trying to do! Skepticism is easy...

    Official GT announcement, OC and DC

    CGC has a right to hire his own staff. It's on him, so I say we sit back and see how this plays out. Gonna have trouble getting used to this forward pass thing, though. What'll they think of next?

    Demarius Thomas Injured

    I was watching the game when Bebe went down. You knew it was bad, because he went down on his own- no contact, no apparent ankle roll or the like. Very sad for him.

    “What’ll ya have?

    Two yellow dogs, rings, large FO. Badabing!

    McCollum

    Well, it's all on CGC, so he has the right to bring in the staff he wants. Look at the bright side - we'll have a whole new batch of assistant coaches to overanalyze and complain about.

    “I got out” bad for recruiting

    ASA wins the argument for the "I got out" side. Issue resolved. Now back to uni and offensive assistant hire discussions.

    [Poll] Out of pure curiosity - Did you attend Georgia Tech?

    BChE75, MSChE76. What a time to be alive! The % of sidewalk fans is a lot higher than I thought; delighted to see it, because GT football, like English beer, is an acquired taste, especially during the Flexbone Era.

    Did GT, dodge a bullet?

    This is especially bad on Satterfield, considering the timing. It's not like these kids are passing QBs or tight ends and he's bringing in the Flexbone. You give them the option to come on board, take a look at how they perform in your system, and if it doesn't work out, the parties go...

    Football Is Simple

    BamaBuzz has his mind rite. Strength thrills, but speed kills.

    “I got out” bad for recruiting

    Three sample sets: mine (1971-76), a former intern's (graduated 2010), and the conversations I had during a campus recruiting trip in 2015. Conclusions: Tech is hard, always has been, but in different ways than before. If anything, it's more stressful now than the 70s because the students...
