He looks pretty good! I would certainly give him the opportunity to walk on. This means he wants to be here, and his film looked good.

Alaguy: Great credential, the most famous of all of Tech's players. Most all of Tech students, players, and fans have heard of Clint Castleberry, John Heisman, and Bobby Dodd.

I am not advocating firing PJ at the moment. No, I don't think he has done well and any lack of quality recruits is still his fault. If a coach does not get quality recruits, it is his system, his personality, his inability to win, etal. It is a fact that the coach is the most important aspect...

Dabo understands the hardships many of these kids have endured while growing up. He probably has the ability to separate the kids who are sincere and wants and opportunity from those who only thinks of themselves. As another has stated, his background has given him a human compassion for those...

Reply to TheSilasSonRising: It would not bother me personally to change the jerseys, pants, and helmets with stripes or other adornments as long as it is still basically white and gold and fairly simple. I detest these loud outfits worn by Oregon and others. They look like clowns playing football.

GTL: I don't think he will ever be a coach at GT again in any capacity. His presence would be too devisive from the past squabble over his rejection of the head coaching job. He was told he would not get the HC job, but was insistant that he get an interview. He was finally given an interview at...

Sorry Mack, I don't hate anyone. I don't hate anyone that attends UGA. I always want Tech to beat UGA, but I also want UGA and any college team from the State of Georgia to beat other teams from other States, unless it happens to be an ACC team. I remain loyal to the ACC teams as well as Tech...

I doubt the State powers would let the GT/UGA game drop. However, if the State allowed the drop, it would make for a good bowl game in the years when both schools were not playing other mandatory bowl games. It would be a highlight game if it were to be the Peachbowl.

I think it would not go over well. It would be anti-climatic after the bowl season.

Personally, I think Laskey should and probably will be the starter. If Custis turns out to be really good, then he will probably be the backup. If he were to turn out to be head and shoulders above Laskey, then he will eventually become the starter.

Coach McWhorter will never be the coach at Tech. In fact, he has never been considered, will never be considered, and should never be considered for Tech.

I think everyone understands that the recruiting services are nor perfect, and at times, has their own agenda in setting the star * on a particular recruit. However, there has to be some value in the star system or coaches and fans would not consider the star rating of a player. It is the same...

I do remember wearing black jerseys a few times during the Dodd days. I am not sure of the reason, but there were a lot of teams wearing white jerseys. It is possible we wore the black ones when playing someone who had the option of wearing the white jerseys, but this is only a guess, as I do...

IronJacket: I agree, the above uniforms look great and are the historical colors of Georgia Tech. I, for one, would hate black, when our colors are Gold and White. There are players from way back in our history all the way up to today who have played for the White and Gold. I cannot conceive of...

The list from 91 Wreck may be skewed by sheer numbers. Some of those years, we could not recruit many players because of the 85 cap. The total rating is also weighted on the total number of points for all recruits. Many schools over recruit and then send some home after Spring practice. I bet...

GT Man : I like your response!

IEEEWreck: We already haves an organization to punish bad behavior for schools breaking the rules. The problem is that they tend to favor the factories and punish those who are innocent or near innocent. Do we need another organization to do the same thing. Unions are in place to make money for...

Boomergump: I understand the odds are against it, but it does not hurt an athlete to try for the draft and to attend some of the tryouts. As I said, there is an occasional walk-on who makes it in college, and there is the occasional college player, not highly rated, that makes it in the pros...

Towaliga: Yes, this is not the theme of the topic, but it brings up a thought to me. Up in North Georgia, there is a district called "Towaliga". Down in Butts County there is a district called "Towaliga". The residents in North Georgia pronounce it just as it is spelled. Those in Butts County...

The scouts do not always consider the game statistics of a player to determine his potential. They are aware that some players do not meet their potential because of the system in which they play or the developmental effectiveness of the training they have received. That is one reason why they...
