    SEC throws down gauntlet in football to NCAA

    It should be pointed out that "not for profit" is simply an accounting term. That means that the organization is not allowed to make a profit at the end of the year....it does not mean that they cannot increase assets (ie facilities), expenses (salaries) and liabilities (bond debts on...

    SEC throws down gauntlet in football to NCAA

    Link SEC says that if the NCAA doesn't allow the big 5 power conferences to legally give benefits to their players in football that they have all collectively decided they'll create a Division IV and move to that.

    Georgia Tech has a official visitor coming in

    I'm not basing it on 4.5; I'm basing my judgement on the fact that on almost every long run, he's being overtaken by someone. That's high school competition he's facing and the competition at Tech and vs our opponents will only be faster and stronger. I think the kid's a good player but I...

    Georgia Tech has a official visitor coming in

    I concur. He has ball skills but I would bet that 4.51 time was a very generous time by the holder of the stopwatch. He has some athleticism with the ball in the air and the ball in his hands though.

    KeShun Freeman

    You get 5 years to play 4, so if he hadn't redshirted, he could use that year of suspension as a redshirt year. But he has already redshirted his first year. So, yes, he will lose a year of eligibility.

    I want a run first pro style offense

    I don't know that I've seen anyone espousing that we emulate Stanford's offense. I think most people talking about Stanford are referring to admissions and recruiting.

    Yeah, we learned the Bud Pledge (among other things): "This is the famous Budweiser beer. We know of no brand produced by any other brewer which costs so much to brew and age. Our exclusive Beechwood aging produces a taste, a smoothness, and a drinkability you will find in no other beer at...

    I want a run first pro style offense

    That's a good question and I would say that "it depends". Teams like Oregon and Auburn still run the ball a majority of the time, so it forces defenses to keep more men in the box. So when they do pass, there are usually fewer players out there in space. However, teams like Leach's team...

    That's a great quote. Thank you for posting that. I'm going to use that with my baseball team. Thanks again.

    I want a run first pro style offense

    I don't disagree with your statements at all. However, the main reason to run to the short side is because the QB comes to the LOS and counts the players on each side of the ball. The side with the fewer players is the one that gives you the ability to option the DE and create a numbers...

    I want a run first pro style offense

    Those are good points and I agree with you on the completion percentage question. Honestly, I've always thought that a pass that is deflected by the receiver into the hands of a defender should be counted in the statistics as an interception but it should go against the receiver and not the QB...

    I want a run first pro style offense

    I apologize. I didn't realize that the following comment was a compliment. I obviously misread it. And for the record, I wasn't taking a shot at anyone. In your post, you say that: I gave him an answer to his question. Personally, I thought dcs was just being clever and using it as a...

    I want a run first pro style offense

    Ahh....so dressedcheeseside being a smartass is OK because he agrees with you but anyone else being a smartass (and pointing out that DCS's post was likely TIC, I might add) is worthy of a rant because they're obviously using it as some kind of Illuminati conspiracy against CPJ or something...

    Attaochu Signs with Chargers

    It's rare to have a rookie holdout in the past few years because of the rookie contract deal that was a part of the newest labor agreement with the NFLPA.

    I want a run first pro style offense

    LOL, I know it was TIC but 2 points: 1) It counts as rushing stats, not passing 2) It's a lateral or it's illegal. So, no, I'd say a pitch doesn't count! ;)

    Couldn't be more happy for you. Honestly, that's one of the things that I think Tech falls behind in...legacies. I have always believed that Tech should give legacy students preferential treatment. If it's a close decision between a legacy and another student, the vote should always go in...

    Early season gametimes to be released today

    Those are my second favorite. My favorite is still night games. I love seeing the Atlanta skyline over the top of Bobby Dodd Stadium at night with all the lights on.

    An idea to think about

    You may be right. Losing Boyd & Sammy Watkins would hurt anyone's talent level. I just hope the Watson kid isn't as good as the Clemson people seem to think he is.
