Isn't it: "I am not renewing your Athletic Scholarship to play football." ? They are being offered the opportunity to go to Tech under a scholarship, and as the one writing a check to GT every semester for a kid's education, that ain't nothing.

Hi. My name is 85Escape and I'm a 3O-aholic. I guess I'll need to be educated. As fun as the Spring "Game" was, and despite the fact that I loved the energy and such, I found the offense kinda boring. I don't like to admit that, as I was hoping to be excited about the new direction. But in the...

You definitely dated yourself there :)

Other groups kept them as well, not just frats. I think the Band even kept Word in my time.

That'd make us 5 & 1 in mid-season....which might, just might, get us ranked briefly before reality comes calling. If we got two more wins, where would they come from? And if we lost two more, which two? I'd say: Wins - Miami and NC ST Losses - UNC & USF

I'm getting the sense that this staff is very savvy with the timing of announcements like this to play the news cycle. Never let more than two or three days go by without some good news, and don't have too many announcements at once since you don't get PR value for the fourth, fifth and sixth...

I was happy to get out in 4.5 yrs...without playing football! Makes me feel like a schmuck. :)

Pretty much. I have three categories. Coaching, Talent, Culture. Coaching => Scheme + Development Talent => Jimmies & Joes before development Culture => Buy-in, heart, team-first mentality, expectation of winning I do think that this bunch of coaches is taking an approach that has the chance...

Great recap. Thanks @MidtownJacket and @bwelbo! I want to listen to it, but don't see having the time in the next few days.

Couldn't just go with a run-of-the-mill Beemer. Went for it big with an Alpina. That man don't play around. Looks like a B7. $140k

Topic: Yellow Jackets 2020 Class Last 10+ Posts (including this one): The previous coach debate. Again.

That's true and I agree Slugboy. The evidence I'm seeing leads me to the same belief. But I use the word 'belief' with intention.... Seriously, I tend to want to roll my eyes anytime someone says "I just look at the facts and call like it is." What they really mean is "I look at some of the...

Screw that. If CGC wins a natty then I'll ask to be buried in my 404 hat and I want it sweat-stained and well-worn. :)

Actually, I'm saying that culture matters. There are plenty of very talented teams (FSU, NC) that are beaten by much less talented teams with no better schemes every year. What matters is heart, will to win and how much the team is in it for each other. The differential between us and most of...

Did you guys hear the Salisbury-man talk about Tech this morning? The other two (Sandra and what's his name) were both very positive about the Spring game and what's going on with Collins. The bald one's comment when he told about the play with Clavin and JoeHam was: "What a fail." What a loser.

Early commits. That's a good thing, as it shows these players are worried if they don't accept early that they might lose their offered spot to another player...and they want to be here. We need to see three or four 4* to start the rebuild.

I picked 8 because I think that would be a fantastic year. And you are never better than you think you are, so let's think we are fantastic. I won't be disappointed with 5, but less than that is a bit of a letdown. Now, if I was betting on an Over/Under of 6 I would go Under using my rational...

I'm hoping it's just experience. I recall at least one time that the coaches called him out as a standout in spring practice, so maybe he just needs some time. We can speculate all we want about CGC's ability to take us to the promised land, but it's hard to argue about his success with DBs...

Hey, I heard the figured out what causes that...maybe you need to get things back in hand, so to speak ;)

The defense was limited to five base plays, on purpose. Mainly to showcase scoring which looks cool to fans and recruits. I'd say don't read too much into it yet. According to The White and Gold (paywall): "Coach Geoff Collins, himself a defensive guy, admitted it wasn’t easy to pull the reigns...
