I agree that math is not for everyone and I'm sure there are plenty that couldn't cut it. I would venture to say that most that couldn't cut it would be due to lack of effort more than anything. I played with a few guys and saw several in other sports that I had no clue how they got into the...

Location. Not everybody loves the idea of going to school in downtown Atlanta. I've heard the crime in Atlanta used against us before. I do agree that the perception of GT in terms of academics is used a lot in recruiting battles. My initial post was just to say that it's not as tough as some...

I agree we can't compete with a pro style offense, but there are other systems that would allow us to compete as well. Look at TCU and Baylor. Im not saying I want us to completely abandon what we are doing either because I agree that it gives us an edge against the factories. I would like to...

Not sure if this is directed at me since it's a response to a response to me, but if you read what I wrote you would see that I already acknowledged such. I actually went through it. This is a good argument for performance on the field, not so much on recruiting. I'm sure recruiters from other...

Trust me, I know. I went through it, albeit in a different sport. I know exactly what it entails, not only in difficulty, but in terms of time spent as well. It's not easy. I never said it was. I also said that it is tougher than what 99% of other student athletes in the country have to go...

How many at GT have to take that? None. Well, I should say none in the Business school have to. I'm not positive on what the requirements are for Psyche majors. Is it a lot tougher to get through GT than Bama or UNC? Yes. Is it as tough as some on this board make it out to be? No. Most...

Another reason why we need to simplify some of what we do like I mentioned in another post. Our success or failure shouldn't be predicated on us having a Senior laden team. I fully understand that having a bunch of guys that have been around for 3-5 years is going to make any team better. I just...

That offense mixed with what we do now would've been exciting to watch. I would love to see JT run some zone read with the backs we have now. I'd also love to see some of those jet sweeps with the speed and athleticism we have at aback now, but like you said, we most likely won't. We have an...

Oh I definitely won't be holding my breath. We all know what we're gunna get with PJ. He does what he does and if you don't like it, well, get over it. This is his biggest weakness to me. I don't want to hear, he tried new things with Vad and it didn't work. First, that offense looked a lot...

I don't think that was his point. If it was, it is not the point I thought he was trying to make. I understood his point to be that making said changed would make us one dimensional and predictable which is why I made the point about still being able to run the ball. To your point of it being...

Many teams run the ball with their OL in a 2 pt stance. Putting our line in a 2 pt stance for the 2 minute drill it would not confine us to only passing. In the same way our passing game is much better when other teams think we are going to run, when teams think we are going to pass, it will be...

This bit makes me question your so called football knowledge/expertise. If you think Snoddy and Marshall are even close to comparable as running backs, than you might want to stick to talking about Oline techniques. Snoddy came in as a raw, track guy with elite speed. Marshall is the best lure...

Are you trying to say that most, if not all 2 minute offenses aren't predictable? Are you also saying that we have to be one dimensional because our lineman are in a 2 point stance with a little tighter splits? I love when our O can just drain the last 8 minutes off the clock and completely...

Please tell me when we have had good pass protection in PJ's tenure here. Especially when we need to protect and not when we have the D on their heels because we are gashing them in the run game. Even last year when we had the best offense ever, and I'm not saying that sarcastically, a lot of...

Changes to scheme and technique in pass protection. Especially in obvious passing situations and 2 minute drill. Specific recommendations: 1. Two point stance 2. Tighter splits 3. No WRs lined up at tackle with responsibility of blocking the DE (think Waller trying to block Beasley inside our...

Blasphamy!!!

I felt the same way about him (Joe) and thought he was a liability this year which is surprising because he played really well and with some fire at the end of last year. You seem to watch a lot of film and have a pretty good grasp on line play. Can you comment on why you think Joe was playing...

Valid point. In fact, 42% of Wallers yardage and 1/3 of his TDs came in the 2 games Smelter didn't play. 10 catches for 187 yards. This offense more than most tends to have one go to guy and then a complement guy along with some abacks. In fact, it's not uncommon for an aback to be second on the...

You're probably right in me making a rookie mistake. I did take M-train. As far as outliers, as @upwgdrb said, MM's lack of carries and playing time factor in as well. I feel like a game in which a bback gets 5 or less carries is an outlier as well. It's tough for any feature back to get any...

What I loved about Smelter was how he used his body. Not only was he great at high pointing the ball, but he would often box out DBs to bring the ball in as well. This is where I think Juene could really improve and it starts with physicality like Boomer said. He's got to get more physical, not...
