    USF Postgame #USFvsGT

    This is a great take on what we've seen so far. Of course I say that because I agree with it completely... :D The more I think about this game the more I'm wondering how much the injuries to Minihan and especially Cooper limited how much the coaches let Graham play. Now that I've had a chance...

    Rhule was there for 4 years. But your point about continuity is a good one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gameday!!

    Please bring that sealed bottle of water and take small sips frequently, don’t gulp it. Then go refill it at the water stations around the stadium and repeat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    DJ in the student section/something new for the team run-out

    I understand where you’re coming from but it’s not. It would be fragmented marketing if the messaging conflicted. Meaning that the message to local recruits was one thing and the message to national recruits was the opposite. In my work I deal with marketers at multinational brands all the time...

    DJ in the student section/something new for the team run-out

    Collins isn't trying to out-recruit Georgia, though I'm sure he'd love to do so. He's trying to claw back to GT the kids from the area that would love to have a local option where they can play big time football where the kids WANT to play and think it's cool to play. That's not really the...

    I am a risk taker... :wacky::LOL:

    We are in complete agreement on this point!

    You can bring a sealed water bottle tomorrow...

    Hi folks. I know most don't need advice on staying hydrated in these kinds of conditions but better to say something and not need to than NOT to say something and need to. Over the last 7 years I've run quite a few very long distance races (I'm very slow but I'm very steady so I finish, but...

    slow starter

    That's a very fair statement regarding the practice time and that's part of why I agree completely that having 3 presents a bigger problem than just 2. And I also agree that the longer it goes on the worse we are for this season. My personal preference would be to go with Graham and live with...

    slow starter

    While I do agree that having 3 QBs from which we are choosing IS a bigger problem than if it was just 2, I don't think the fact that there are three guys reflects poorly on the coaches but rather the fact that we have three guys who have not distanced themselves from one another. I believe we...

    slow starter

    George O'Leary and Ralph Friedgen, who I revere as one of the greatest offensive minds in football, had plenty of time to identify the starting QB after Joe Hamilton. He even had Goose Godsey on the roster for 2 years and wasn't 100% sure he was the guy. Goose barely beat out Andy Hall, who...

    slow starter

    I agree with the question and feel like you've hit on a completely legitimate point about taking too long to identify the right QB. I'm concerned about how long it'll take to find the right guy here at GT (but not because of anything in the Clemson game). Though I will say that in the first...

    How Tech plans to use its QBs against South Florida ...

    I get the feeling that it’s less about Patenaude being comfortable switching QBs and more about the fact that the one QB with game experience isn’t really the prototype of what he wants so they aren’t sure who will be the guy that takes the job and “runs with it”, if you get my meaning. My...

    A Player's Perspective on Clemson game

    I’m one of those very excited about our new coaching staff (of course I am also a fan of CPJ). I think I understand some of the rationale for the offense we ran against Clemson. But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed we didn’t open it up until late in the game with Graham in. It’s a...

    Offensive Game Plan

    I think that either people are mis-stating what they mean or you are misunderstanding what they are saying. I think the coaches felt that given our level of current proficiency and the skill sets of our opponents that the best possibility for us to be at all competitive was to do what our most...

    Has the hype been humbled?

    Couldn’t agree more with this.

    Offensive Game Plan

    I felt like a few things were going on (in no order): 1) only one QB with any meaningful game experience - presumably stepping on the field against the defending national champs shouldn’t have been overwhelming emotionally 2) not a ton of confidence that the OL could pass block long enough...

    James Graham is the future

    That’s true. And in those three plays he looked like a deer in the headlights. But to be completely fair I don’t think we can make any judgments about Lucas moving forward from just this game. He hasn’t played in how many years? And his first plays come against the best team in the country with...

    Clemson Postgame

    The DBs as a group impressed me. And I liked that we seemed to be attacking and while I agree completely that the LBs showed some bad habits I was encouraged that a bunch of young guys got some good playing time against what may be the best team in the country and kept hitting hard. The Clemson...
