    Collins on Packer and Durham this morning...

    The reality of a bottom line biz, which CFB certainly is in terms of wins, tells ya that there will be no years 6 & 7 at 6-6.

    Collins on Packer and Durham this morning...

    Sounds like a 6-4 team. We have never beaten ugag since '74 & '90 with superior talent, but we have a number of times with better coaching. Obviously we need both, but unless the coaching is more than solid, which should translate into an 8-9 win in 2021, the impressive improvement in recruiting...

    Assessing the Impact of GT Presidents on GT Athletics

    Does anyone believe for a nano second that ugag's, Bama's, ND's, PSU's, OSU's, UF's, etc. etc. Presidents, would survive beyond just a few years of football decline? Not to say that they are to be a positive standard of any kind, but the "what can I do to help you" quote attributed to Crecine is...

    Assessing the Impact of GT Presidents on GT Athletics

    BL's QB had a lot to do as well with BL's flash in the pan success.

    CPJ interview - Nov 11

    I'm talking about on the field performance, not just finances. We would have gotten pummeled by Bama, LSU, ugag, Auburn, Fla, UT, and the sec newer additions would have just piled on more recently. I don't believe a Vandyish record in the 70's to present would have resulted in the changessss...

    Flush financially or not, it would have been sooo much fun being Vandyish the past 5 decades, huh?

    Triple Option

    Your attempt to piss on our 2014 season, as pitiful as it was, is pathetic. Talk about needing to do some homework--gessh! MSU had a very good D AND the current Dallas Cowboy QB---plus Collins not being at the game made no difference at all---it was his D after all---it was good and we ripped it...

    Legitimate observation/question

    As in.....this is the greatest turnaround in the history of CFB?

    CPJ interview - Nov 11

    Facts: There's nothing discriminatory about my post--nothing--got it? None, absolutely none, of the courses/programs added are for helping the program at all. Look up the meaning of excuses and challenges/handicaps --- the differences will enlighten you.

    CPJ interview - Nov 11

    Play much golf Milwaukee? Considering Tech's handicap vs ugag, it was anything but a joke that CPJ took a knife into a gun fight 3 times in Athens and won. It was time for him to go, and most who respect what he did here, are happy about CGC's recruiting results---the coaching part, that CPJ...

    Next year's expectations - wants/needs

    I seriously doubt these things had much of any impact on who signed this year. I believe our success in recruiting is based on the staff's hard arsed work, taking some chances on kids, family atmosphere (most quoted by recruits), welcoming hs coaches to visit, moving on from the TO, and early...

    Poll - What is a reasonable amount of time for Collins to be given?

    This! Only caveat I'd add, is that we need 4 to have 2 fresh ones at a time and to account for injuries. Even with an impressive class coming in, we have few true DTs among them. It would really help if Jones comes on board. Stackhouse and others who were priorities no longer seem to be likely.

    Next year's expectations - wants/needs

    We are short about 4 DTs that actually play like 4* DTs. Until we have 4 like this, we will be disappointed vs the big boys who like to run up the gut.

    Poll - What is a reasonable amount of time for Collins to be given?

    5 wins in 2021 is a fail. 8 means we are getting legit and he will likely get an extension in 2022 if we maintain 7 at a min. 2023 should be a 9 win season, if in fact we made the right hire.

    Academic Requirements for Recruits

    Taking into account we had the highest SAT avg. among football players in D-1 public programs some 25 years ago, and the average for regular GT students has skyrocketed since, we still are indeed behind the 8 ball. As good as it's gonna get is the 2014 scenario described by GTMom, and that will...

    Academic Requirements for Recruits

    There's a reason the lower scoring exceptions have a high grad rate. They are screened for effort in the classroom by talking to their hs coaches and teachers. I have lobbied for more true SA exceptions for years, as long as they are justified by results like CPJ's grad rates. No exceptions---No...

    Academic Requirements for Recruits

    I think the top hs programs are doing better now with promising players, but it has to happen very early (say 7th/8th grade) to help the situation at Tech. The hard cold facts are: For the demographic making up the vast majority of recruits, the academic nos. are truly dismal. Hence, there are...

    CPJ interview - Nov 11

    Are you that butt hurt about not being Vandy or less, since Dodd? You do know what happened in the 60's right? The tsunami of great talent thrust upon CFB wasn't exactly a great fit for GT, huh? It still isn't. STEM ain't cool. High school graduation rates, math scores, and reading scores are...
