    Record Attendance Spring Game

    They had my daughter at “face painter”. You’d think she was a little kid but, no. She’s a freshman in high school. She is begging me to take her down there super early. I keep telling her she doesn’t have to convince me. My car’s ready to go right now (and we’re a week away). We will be there...

    2019 GT Official Color Debate (formerly Adidas Swag Watch 2019 **

    I am generally cool with the alternate uniforms and colors because I think the players like them. And your photoshop skills are excellent! But none of these options really grab me. I just don’t think they look that cool. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    404 Day Numbers

    I get that you're trying to forestall any issues we MIGHT have later and that you understand the rationale behind the meme. But seriously, the positives of using 404 right now as a way for the metro area kids and coaches and other Atlanta-based entities (like companies, music stars, public...

    Spring Practice

    AMEN! As I've said before, thank you CPJ and company for representing us with class and dignity. I will forever be grateful to you for so many wonderful moments. And welcome CGC and company. I look forward to all the excitement being generated off the field to translate into on-field success...

    One Player I Hope Coach Collins Embraces: Justin Thomas

    You're sure right about that! He may get Orange Bowl flashbacks when thinking of JT5 :D

    One Player I Hope Coach Collins Embraces: Justin Thomas

    A couple of thoughts: 1) Justin Thomas is going to always be remembered as one of the great GT football players to ever suit up in the white and gold (and blue). Period! We could not have asked any more from the young man. He represented us with class and dignity both on and off the field...

    Is uga scared?

    I feel like we need to win a few more from them before we even entertain this question. I understand the AJC posted it but why on Earth should they be scared of us at this point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Juanyeh Thomas' Story

    Really glad that CPJ and company saw the spark in Juanyeh and gave him the opportunity excel at GT in more ways than just on the football field. You always want to see the kids here having success and enjoying their experience but after watching that video and seeing how happy he seems to be...

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    Agree that the NCAA should enforce the rules but they won’t and no pressuring from the member institutions that care will help because the one that don’t care about the rules are the ones they would listen to. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    This is exactly what I’ve been trying to say (though you did it well and I did it poorly). Thank you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    Like I said. We will have to agree to disagree since I think there’s little integrity holding the athletes hostage to a corrupt system. You’re also operating under a false premise that I’m suggesting not honoring our educational commitment to the athletes. We don’t guarantee they will play. So...

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    But it was a fun debate. And I agree that there's nothing to be worried about, here.

    And I would say the same to you. And at that I think we'll have to agree to disagree.

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    Again, I am wondering why you are wanting to hurt GT by insisting that we adhere to the rules of a corrupt system? To me that sounds like you are not espousing integrity or honesty. You are just espousing blindly following the rules. I personally feel like following those rules in order to...

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    With all due respect it's silly to put that stake in the ground when you're dealing with an organization that isn't looking out for us or the kids. There are three parties involved here. The NCAA, GT, and the athlete. Is there a reason you want GT to be the one hurt instead of the NCAA? (and...

    Yomanser's Recruiting Roundup - 2/6/19 First Edition Analysis

    The most recent Heisman Trophy winner and potential number 1 pick in the NFL draft is 5'10" 1/8, 207# at the combine (probably more like 190-200 playing weight, maybe a touch less than that). Russell Wilson is just a shade under 5'11" and 205. Jordan Yates height is no problem for me. I can't...

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    Just out of curiosity, why not? I mean other than it's dishonest. I'm not suggesting that's not enough of a reason but considering how crappy the NCAA has treated GT over the years why shouldn't GT take advantage of the rules being written in such a way that a kid benefits and GT benefits? If...

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    I think the key here is, as you say, that if the kids who are just not going to contribute still want to get that GT degree we all love to tout then GT will find a way to fund it. But that doesn't necessarily mean they will remain on the football team.

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    I doubt that we'll be in a situation where we can't accommodate an athlete like that.
