We played lackluster defense, our shots were not falling (Lammers was 2 of 10!!!), and I saw an incredible amount of phantom fouls. I really don't like losing to UGA, and I especially don't like getting blown out...but this team is thin, injured, and just hasn't come together yet. I have faith...

It would be nice if Ogbonda would heal up and show us what he's got. Didn't we hear that he had a great off-season and improved his game? Another unfortunate injury, I guess.

GT basketball is sitting at 4-4, with losses to UCLA (in China), Grambling, Tennessee, and Wofford (@ Wofford), and victories over three lower-level teams and Northwestern. Our team spent the first three games without Tadric Jackson, all 8 games without Josh Okogie, and the last 4 games with a...

Well, that was not fun to watch. But just so you know...I woke up this morning to find that GT had lost (to Wofford? Wha?) and still watched the game. Buckets Magee went crazy and we did not make enough plays (the walk before the dunk and the held ball really hurt). We are really...

We played horribly. Gross. Then we played awesome to get back in it and snatch it away. Then we inexplicably found a new way to lose—the own goal! The end was actually set-up just like the NW game, 7 seconds, down by 1. We made the last one, we missed this one. The really frustrating part...

Notice Darryl Labarrie on the bench...and me in a yellow jacket costume (back when we were both young!)! :)

Finally...even with all the breaks going against us, we finally made a play (thank you, Ajani Kerr!) to seal a win. We have been ONE PLAY away so many times this season, it almost looked like the game was on repeat...until the sweet end. Go Jackets! Go Ajani Kerr!

Is it odd to be a bit disappointed by a 33-7 win over UNC? Maybe, but let's face it--we could have won that game by 50. Even with their garbage time TD, we still had a 456-247 advantage in yards gained. A big "way to go" to the defense for taking care of business. They are playing very...

Great game, Jackets! It wasn't always pretty (especially that first half offense...), but the bottom line is that the team got the job done. I liked how the D seemed to get more aggressive in the 2nd half--5 sacks, 3 turnovers--that's what we need out of them. In fact, things could have...

Defense usually controls the game early in the year, so I expect a lower scoring game than most of you (of course, now I will be wrong and both teams will score 40+!). None of us really have any idea what to expect but I think the game will probably turn on one or two plays...hopefully in our...

You've got to be kidding me. Really...you are kidding, right? This is a joke, right?

Love #3's fake pitch reception. Love it. Carrying out those kinds of fakes can only help. I honestly don't know why we don't do more of that. Sometimes all it takes is one guy on D to think twice about whether the A-back actually got the ball or not...and the actual ball carrier is off and...

Well done, longestday. Thanks for doing the research. Ugh. Anybody who says that this stuff doesn't matter is fooling themselves. Our margin between an 11-win season and a 6-win season is already quite thin. It's often these little details that make the difference in a close game. Those...

After a quick look at that depth chart, I can honestly say that we have improved in one very important area--depth. We used to have guys on the two-deep who were, let's say "questionable" in talent and ability in comparison to the 1st team. Looking at our projected depth chart, I only see a...

Well, this game could not have gone much worse for the Jackets. A sloooow start on both offense and defense put us in an early hole. Then Lammers gets his 2nd foul at the 12 minute mark of the 1st half. Our guys seemed slow-footed and lacked the energy we have been accustomed to seeing from...

Another really good game by the Jackets. We are really playing good basketball right now and we have learned how to close a game out. Okogie is a beast! Moore still scares me on defense but he attacked the basket and played well. Ogbanda looked kinda lost and fouls way too easily. These...

I was just thinking about starting a thread for Heyward! He played his tail off last night. That charge he took with about 4 minutes to go was HUGE! If he had not stepped in, it would have been a two point game with all the momentum over to Ole Miss. That play was a game-changer.

Wooooooooohooooooooo! That was an incredible game by the Jackets--maybe their best game of the year. They just took down a really good team playing in front of a loud seek-out crowd...a crowd that was silenced by a smart, energetic, and hard-working bunch of guys. I absolutely love it. Go...

ugh. I am rocking that 21st percentile. Well, at least I got one thing right--the name of my bracket: "Wrong again."

This is going to be a tough game. Belmont is a smart team that plays efficiently. They pass well and they shoot well. I don't know if Ugag was just lazy or unmotivated, but from what I saw, Belmont was clearly the better team. We need to guard the perimeter well and attack the basket...
