Oh. Ohhh. Didn't click at first. Wow.

This is an impression you have because of many millions of dollars spent on advertising campaigns over many years.

^^^You and I share the same dream. Some thoughts about trends and possible Tech positioning: GT is not going to be something people do purely for entertainment value. All the professional teams plus fantasy whatever, twitter, espn, etc. mean that being undifferentiated in an increasingly...

I mean, adding air raid plays seems feasible to me, and probably interesting to think about. But with our pass protection options is seems like we're discussing optimizing the turbo when the transmission is disconnected: It might be cool, but it's not going to matter. (As long as we're...

Common practice among American universities is to designate degrees that involved advanced math requirements a BS. There are many schools that, for example, offer both a BS and a BA in Sociology from the same program, with the BS indicating that you're better prepared for statistically...

Yeah, I really wish we had something like this in the playbook: https://understandingthetrickeration.wordpress.com/2011/08/07/understanding-the-run-shoot-go-package/ oh wait. It's almost like the plays we run are shaped by the ability of the players to execute. Hawaii what now?

Hey now, don't leave out the brave, bold INTAneers. http://www.iac.gatech.edu/

Well, here's how I see it. We're not going to convince any players who want a Literature PhD that we're the best. Those guys should be going to Northwestern or Cal Berkley and good for them. There's a larger pool, I think, of athlete scholars who have no idea what their goals are. They're...

Fair enough. I would argue that the methodology US News uses is silly, and explicitly penalizes GT for not having a literature major. I mean, do people actually think that Michigan is a better school than Harvey Mudd? I think only Presidents and Provosts of universities think that way. Which...

Two things: 1. Our reputation lags behind Notre Dame? Admittedly, I live and work in the South, but in numerous contacts with IEEE people from all over the country I never got that idea. 2. Our school of business is now MUCH broader than it used to be. Want to specialize in HR? You can...

Real story here is it's now critical that we turn around our troubles in the off season. I want to see Smart get fired after 3 straight losses to GT. ...I want it so bad that if I actually had a lot of money, I might actually give it to the football program to see it happen. Well, at least...

Peer? Pssh. GT's School of Electrical and Computer Engineering graduates more baccalaureate and graduate students than Stanford's entire College of Engineering. So yeah, you know, they can be peers. Just they achieve those academic standards for a fifth of the student population. Also, on...

Oh I don't know, he seems like a nice guy. Maybe we can take him on in a recruiting role.

Those numbers are misleading because the state has tied funding to that kind of number. The reshuffling of the books to make the goalposts is pretty predictable. They accomplish this in a few ways: the admissions are substantially more selective than previously was the case. There's a major...

This would be a clutch scenario for us. All the disruption of a HC change, none of the potential upside of an offensive scheme not based in assuming your talent will make up for the lack of tactical advantage. Super GT bonus time when U(sic)gA picks a hyperconservative OC to 'minimize risk'...

Makes sense. I know we're building a 5+ years of experience model MBA program, so it would be pretty hard to get placed.

It is good to graduate. On the other hand, it's also pretty good to get some free graduate school. Can they give scholarships to the MBA program?

We are in the extremely fun position as Tech fans to watch that particular hypothesis be put to the test. Me? I think this is the U(sic)gA Skool of Abusinessmakin' patented management technique of 'have no idea whats going on here, replace parts at random and hope the Hawthorne effect gets...
