    Starting QB next year.

    Thanks for the game link. I must confess, the offense doesn't look very innovative to me. Now I'm no football expert, so take my observation with a bottle of salt. But it looks like every other RPO scheme I see everywhere. From an entertainment perspective, it's pretty dull, to be honest. If it...

    Dedrick Mills Committed to Nebraska

    Only one? Unlikely. The question isn't the rightness or wrongness of the policy, but the SA's unwillingness to follow a clear policy after multiple warnings. To me it's pretty simple, you have discipline in your organization or you don't. In this case, the SA was given an opportunity to change...

    5 things to know about GT-Minnesota...

    Just to have one last FlexBone TO Xs and Os moment, am I right in thinking that over pursuit by the middle LB gets countered with a mid-line option? I'm good with the change...it's probably time....but I'll honestly miss this offense and all the tactics.

    Bowl game Uni.... some will need a suicide watch

    Um...did you, perhaps, note the sarcasm in that comment? Wow. Maybe a clue should be on the ol'Christmas list, eh?

    Bowl game Uni.... some will need a suicide watch

    Looks like history supports it (in fact, in that article from 1892 gold is listed after blue.) The players evidently like it. We won't lose accreditation over. The darker color will absorb more heat, and given where our bowl is that could be an advantage. And, most importantly, I think they...

    Tashard Choice named RB coach

    I let CGC know and he agreed with you. He's calling Saban now to tell him he'll have to stay at Bama. #OldGuysCantCoach!

    McCollum

    Straw man. Trying to demean others buy using derogatory statements like "Chicken Little" says more about you than those you are trying to invalidate. Saying "I think he made a mistake" is not saying "Oh no, we are doomed". It's simply expressing an opinion about the merits of a single decision...

    McCollum

    No one, or at least almost no one, here is questioning CGC's "right" to clean-slate. And if it is what he feels he needs to do to be successful, then I support it as well. I just think it is a mistake, in this case, given the low likelihood that his worst recruiter will be better than Mac at...

    McCollum

    Good and fair question, CuseJacket. That gets back to a fundamental hiring question. Given previous examples of recruitment, do we think we have a >50% chance of recruiting a person to fill this job that is better than our best internal candidate? More specifically, will CGC's worst recruiter be...

    McCollum

    I'll give him the benefit of my doubting that clean-slating was a smart move. (n) I wonder if there's a bit of ego at play here? "Thumbprinting" is what we call it. You see it all the time in the corporate world, new guy or gal comes in and changes everything...even the stuff that is...

    Anyone else just really happy?

    And the other half needs to grow up and quit trying to spread divisiveness. Jeesh guys, give it a break. Can we get downvotes on here? I'm happy we have a new coach, really hope that he can be successful in leading our squad, and look forward to all the positive speculation about the changes...

    11 years of building a program...whissed away 1 season

    Um...that's not consistent. I'm an old-school process engineer, and that upward trend is definitely an indication of significant process change and is 'out of control' versus the baseline. ;) While desirable, it's actually not consistent!

    Ask a Gopher fan

    It's brilliant. Or, as we say, drunius. Both teams having a "Gold Out" would be pretty dang funny. We should seriously try to get it going. Is there a way we can insult the ACC office while we are at it?

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

    OldJacketFan, I agree with you. I'm a grad but all of my other fan buddies didn't happen to go to Tech. A fan is a fan is a fan. My son goes there now but just isn't interested in football (through no lack of effort on my part.) He'll watch, and understands well enough, but he's got a lot going...

    Paul Johnson to retire

    I don't appreciate the racist and ageist comments. Let's keep this to real qualifications, shall we?
