    Recruiting.

    OMG are we really looking for more reasons to dislike our new coach even before he's coached a single game? Well said!!! That’s exactly how I feel, too!!

    So how do people feel about Brent Key and Geoff Collins-

    That’s a fair question to ask. I would say that you still have to be a pretty good recruiter even at a place like Alabama because you’re competing with Clemson, Ohio State, Michigan, Oklahoma, Georgia, and then everyone that is close to the top tier like TAMU and other schools that are putting...

    What is this thing about Waffle House?

    @GTRambler this is what I’m talking about!!! Who knew it would explode to this... Collins getting flown to do some recruiting in one of Waffle House’s planes? WOW!

    This kind of stuff is way different from CPJ

    Remember that every year you're marketing to different customers (recruiting different players). It's not the same person going to the same store and seeing the same sales pitch. On the other hand it does show kids that our coaches are willing to have fun with the whole process and make it...

    NFL Scouts like the new hires

    I would disagree that a person who has been publicly kicked in the nads looks petty responding to it. If Nagy had said something like "I think Paul Johnson's system wasn't fun to watch" then absolutely CPJ would look petty responding to something silly like that. But Nagy clearly impugned CPJs...

    NFL Scouts like the new hires

    If Nagy wants to take a cheap shot at Paul Johnson in public then Paul Johnson has every right to defend himself in a public forum.

    Collins - Expectations and time to get things right?

    I agree that the bowl game was a very poor representation of our season. I can't find it in my heart to blame the players or the coaches for the lackluster effort given the circumstances. I'm definitely disappointed in what they put on the field but with all the upheaval I just can't see...

    2019 Offseason Thread

    We aren’t going to “out-recruit” people much in the next few weeks. I’m talking about what I hope for the 2019 off-season leading to the 2019 season on the field.

    Graham Academically Ineligible

    Yeah I dug myself a hole by not qualifying my statement better :D When I read statements that are just beyond ridiculous I usually throw them out and forget about them. I generally chalk them up to either the person who made the statement having no clue what he/she is talking about or being...

    2019 Offseason Thread

    I'm really hoping that the players really buy in to what the new staff is trying to do. Back when Bobby Ross was hired this was a bit of a problem with some kids (not all of them) and it really wasn't until year 3 that he had enough of his guys along with the ones from before who were totally...

    Graham Academically Ineligible

    Next time one comes up please point it out. The statement I made was that I had never seen someone say GT is no harder than ANYWHERE else. And I still haven't. I can't, of course, see every post. I have seen people on the three boards I follow suggest that there are majors at some of the...

    Graham Academically Ineligible

    I'm pretty sure that in all the time I've been on GT message boards I've never seen anyone claim that GT isn't more academically challenging than our competition.

    Benson injury update?

    I'm curious why you think that's what he should do? Personally I think he has an excellent opportunity here next year if he's healthy.

    2019 Offseason Thread

    If I can go I'm going to give a standing ovation the first time we line up with a TE on the field... ;-)

    What is this thing about Waffle House?

    Thank you!! I don't get the fuss about In'n'Out burgers, either. We were out in Texas and stopped by one with the family and some friends and none of us could understand what the big deal was.

    4 More Staffers announced

    I am thrilled about Panagos and Knight. Panagos comes highly recommended to me by someone in the college coaching world I trust implicitly and I really like Knight’s background as both a recruiter and position coach. I don’t have any impressions yet of the other two guys as I have done zero...

    Hype and the GT fanbase

    I’m convinced that New Coke was a marketing ploy so that they could go back to “Classic Coke” and reap the benefits of a huge uptick in Coke sales. Hah hah... just kidding, but not really :D

    Happy new year (and turning over a new leaf, plus a request)

    Starblazers was an absolute staple/MUST WATCH for me growing up and then when I got to GT it was on every Friday morning. Every Friday I had an English paper due and my buddy Junichi (from Japan) had a Physics quiz and we’d stay up all night helping each other and then watch Starblazers...

    Happy new year (and turning over a new leaf, plus a request)

    This is outstanding advice. I can't count the number of times during the last 5 years especially where I've typed out a response to someone only to leave the page, do something else for a while, then ask myself what I'm trying to accomplish by responding and then ask the next, obvious question...
