I thought Kentucky played them pretty well. They shanked a punt deep in their own territory in the middle of the third, and UGA scored on the next play. That changed the whole complexion of the game. Kentucky still managed to get the ball all the way down to the six-yard line later in the...
This team probably has a couple more wins ahead of it this season. May not make a bowl this year, but still something positive to build off for next year. Kentucky and UGA are scoreless right now near the end of the 2nd. I still say, if Tech can hang around with the Dawgs and keep the game...
I think a lot of it may just be raw emotion... If you read some of the UGA reporting right now, there are people already calling for Kirby to be fired. There was apparently even a bunch of booing at Sanford Stadium during the second half, before Georgia tied it up at the end of the 4th. (I...
I don't know how many CPJ supporters here feel the same way I do -- but I wasn't ready for a new coach yet. I liked the CPJ hire from the get-go, based on what he'd done at Navy, and really thought he was a great fit for the program. The old high-school offense was exciting to watch, and it...
Bobby Ross turned Maryland --- MARYLAND --- into ACC champs and was voted coach of the year in the ACC before he came to the Flats. He had a good track record wherever he went, and even made it to the Super Bowl after leaving Tech. He left Maryland in the wake of the Len Bias tragedy and some...
Is CGC the next Bill Lewis? Yes ( ) No ( ) Don't know yet (x)
In so many words, Liberty Turns said below that fans' opinions do matter because they are the paying customer. There is some legitimacy in what he says. It's certainly true for professional sports. Without the fans...
The UGA boards are in full meltdown mode right now, worse than after we lost to the Citadel. Some are expecting another two losses on the year. Coach Richt was fired because he wasn't winning national championships; Coach Smart was hired to remedy that, and he has arguably better players than...
I've read all the posts... For what it's worth, my opinions may or may not reflect any segment of the fan base, but I'm not sure. Apathetic? Not yet, but not as fired-up as in more recent seasons. Some personal reflections looking back at my 45-plus years as a Tech fan:
1. Back in grade...
I like this idea a lot. One of the things that made Ross and O'Leary as successful as they were was the more 'national' scope of their recruiting. Between them and Friedgen, they had the whole Atlantic Seaboard to work with because of where they'd come from. At the same time, the Tech brand...
I like CGC's enthusiasm and the hard work he's put in, too. I'd like to see him succeed as a person as well. If it's true Tech has been his dream job from day 1, then you really wish him success at that. I don't know how good of a coach Dabo really is, but he's certainly a good CEO type of...
That makes a lot of sense. We had all kinds of athletes in '90, and the depth we had at WR was an embarrassment of riches. And also a lot of good DBs that could be substituted in and out, based on the situation at hand. But it was those big linemen that really anchored that team. I don't...
Though I'd been a Tech fan for a few years already, I was still too young to really understand how bad off the program was at the end of the Pepper Rodgers era. I remember my parents saying he'd lost the big alumni backers, not just because of his middling record, but because of his personal...
Mike Kelley played backup for the Falcons for a season or two, maybe third on the depth chart, and I seem to remember Joe Hamilton was backup on the Super-Bowl winning Buccaneers. But the point Colorado Jacket made is still pretty accurate. There was a poster yesterday who mentioned Nebraska...
Not too difficult to follow at all... He was saying the team needs to have a depth chart, and players need to know where they stand on a week-to-week basis. They need to get the necessary reps in practice as well as gameday reps, and they need to have a relationship with the coaches as well as...
I like white and gold best, especially from the Dodd & Pepper Rodgers eras. I think either navy or black were used for the numbers and trim, but I can't remember. My next favorite would be the gold jerseys from the Chan era. Those looked great. The navy uniforms from the Ross era were really...
With so many of CPJ's players still on the roster and everyone expecting the new pro offense, they'll line up in the shotgun formation, switch to the option look and pitch the ball for a touchdown on the first play. (I like the idea of throwing in the option every now and then, when no one's...
Might sound nitpicking, but it's "Lenox Square"... not "Lenox Mall" or "Lenox Square Mall". When I was at Tech, we could always tell the people who were not from Atlanta because they always said "Mall". ;)
