I understood where you were coming from before. I think you're feeding the monster by the way you respond. My point is to stop engaging, leave it out there, and if that happens to get him excited then let it get him excited and don't let it get to you.

Are you really giving someone grief because he's excited for reasons different than you? My daughter likes my car because it has a gigantic sunroof and I like it for totally different reasons. Should I be complaining that she doesn't like it because of the ABS, the fuel efficiency, the...

Sad to hear of his passing. Rest in peace, Joe.

The initial question isn't a problem. It's when you got an answer that you didn't agree with you continued to act like you didn't get any answer at all, at least that's my perception. You may not think that's what you're doing but certainly it looks that way to others. I don't have any issue...

There isn’t any nuance for you to get. He made a decision that was different than you would have made given similar data and opportunities. Some people like vanilla and some people like chocolate. There’s nothing to argue about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So you're saying it's bad to reminisce about great moments in the last decade-plus of GT football? If you want to bury the last 12 years that's fine. But I'll remember the great moments very fondly, I'll remember our previous coaching staff fondly, and I'll continue to be over-the-moon excited...

It is awesome for Parker that he has the opportunity to get degrees from two great institutions that will help him outside of football! And to play football for some terrific coaches against great competition at both of those schools! Parker will always be part of the Tech family, just like...

Well said! I will root for Parker next year and hope he has a great career in football moving forward if that's what he wants. He and his family represented themselves and Georgia Tech with class and dignity and I'll be proud to continue thinking of his as part of the Tech family since he...

Never mind. Just ignore this.

That would help with the temperature but keep in mind that most people who have come for DragonCon have spent and are spending a lot of money to be there. I don’t think many folks who are not already GT fans would take the time away. On the other hand the folks who come down for the parade on...

I'm about as geeky as they come and I go to DragonCon and I don't think this idea would work. Mostly because folks who come down for DragonCon are usually spending a lot of money to be there and won't take away several hours to be at a football game. It's also usually pretty hot and being in...

As a fan it is always disappointing to see a kid transfer. You develop a loyalty and attachment to the kids who come to your alma mater or the school you've chosen to be a fan of (and thank you to every single one of you out there who has chosen to be a GT fan when you're not alums!!!). But as...

Yes it was an ignorant observation. I thought at the time that hiring CPJ was a great way to change the game at GT. In hindsight I still feel like it was a good choice and CPJ and his teams gave us many, many great memories and some amazing seasons. But it's also an interesting insight into...

No kidding. I feel like I need to put a disclaimer in my signature so it's automatically appended to every post!

If this doesn't get you excited about what's brewing down on The Flats then you may want to go visit the doctor because you might be dead. I LOVE that this staff is a mixture of guys who have fought the battles on OUR field and guys who have coached with Geoff elsewhere and bring some...

Yeah I don't see you and most others as anti-Collins at all. I will say that the thing I appreciate most about Geoff Collins is that he doesn't look at GT like a factory school where the kids come to play football and have to go through the necessary evil of attending and passing classes. On...

I totally agree that we should not be recruiting kids who have no interest in what GT has to offer. I have no doubt at all that the staff are acutely aware, even more so than any of us since some of them are relatively recent players from GT, what the ramifications are of having kids come to GT...

I think what @Animal02 was talking about are kids who don't care what the major is because they are only in school because it provides a place for them to play football. What you are describing are kids, like yourself, who were motivated to get a meaningful college degree and knew that it was...

There are a boatload of reasons why one athlete, whether he's one of the best on the team or the worst on the team, might want to go elsewhere. And most of them don't indicate a systemic problem. Examples: Parker may just not like the personality of the new staff; sometimes two quality human...
