Reply from Tech Athletic Department: Dean Buchan <[email protected] Rodney: The heights and weights are updated prior to spring practice (so they’ll be updated in the next week to 10 days) and again in July.

Personally, I think the majority of fans and boosters are unhappy with CPJ's production at present. I think there is only a small majority that is overwhelmingly in love with PJ. However, I think the biggest majority of fans and boosters are satisfied with the fact that PJ was given this year to...

Pittsburg has determined to delete the intrasquad games after the end of Spring Football Practice. There have also been efforts to eliminate fans at football practices. I understand part of the reasons, but I also know that fans must be enthused in order to buy tickets. Personally, I think it is...

The SEC is thinking of easing restrictions at some of the football games. This would be a bad rule. It is already bad when some fans sneak alcoholic beverages into the games. There are already too many jerks at every football game who want to cause problems. It only increases their odds of...

It appears the UGA men's basketball team is finally on the rise once again. This makes for a healthy round of competition between Tech and UGA for all future games. I think both Tech and UGA having good basketball programs will entice more in-State players to remain in the State to play for both...

I think the analysis is still out on Gregory. The improvement was minute in his first couple of years, but headed upwards until this year. If we had not lost some players to injuries, possibly we could have improved slightly this year. It seems probable and wise to see how Gregory does next year...

Wait till next year! Lady Jackets still a competetive team. An article in the AJC indicates that the State of Georgia is very fertile ground for recruiting of female basketball players. We seem to be getting some good players, but we need someone to put us over the top.

dabuzz: Some good questions and points posted.

In my view, it is a no-brainer to have an early signing date. Also, to me, preferably it would be at the end of the High School team's last game, and prior to the play-offs. It would be detrimental to the schools who cheat by waiting until the February date to make an underhanded material offer...

If the question is in regards to a particular player, we do not have an individual player who is that important to our winning or losing. If we are talking about a position, there should be no doubt it would have to be bad play at quarterback where the leadership of the team resides.

If Darius Commissiong is committed to transfer, then it would be to his advantage to do it prior to the spring practice of the target school. If he is just considering the thought, then he might wait until after Tech's Spring practice to review his standing here . If he then made the decision to...

Yes, I would also be proud of my daughter whereever she attended, even if it were Notre Dame. I guess I would even have to attend some games if she became cheerleader, but it would eat at my soul.

Each year, most every team loses seniors that were the biggest playmakers on the squad. Many of these teams come back the next year and perform even better. I have seen this happen in the workplace. You lose the worker who carried the load of the office or work group. Everyone depended on him...

Eric, my reply was not intended for the board to produce the correct weights and heights of the athletes. It is the responsibility of the sports department to give the correct information on their site. I will take your advice and send a request to them. It would probably make them take notice...

pinglett: Agree, they might as well not post the weights if they are all bogus. Fans want good information, not vague information. After all, it is the fan who pays the bill.

My personal opinion is that the decision is not even debatable. He was being used as a relief pitcher. That will not get you the reputation in the Major league Baseball draft as much as a receiver in the National League Football Draft. It was a tremendous accomplishment in football to come in...

Boomergump:I like your analysis, it is very practical. The schedule favors us winning more games. The offense should have more cohesion this year, and the outcome will probably rest on the defense to make the key stops that is a mark of a good defense.

augustabuzz & GT18YJ: The information quoted about Bill Fulcher was taken from Georgia Tech records, but I retreived it through Wikipedia. Go to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Fulcher. It gives a lot of information on Bill Fulcher, and there is a link from there to some records from Georgia Tech. On...

GT18YJ: It came from the same source in a reply several spots above this one with the title of "Some More History While Researching Fulcher". It may have been from Tech History (I don't really remember). I copied and pasted it. It was between the Carson article and the Pepper Rodgers article. I...

I think I have to go with the quarterback. Actually, his leadership affects the whole team, even the defense. If the quarterback does not have the rhythm and finesse to make the offense go, then the defense becomes frustrated for having to go right back on the field each time. Over time this...
