  1. APU

    Reply to biggtfan: This whole article is about unions "APU". The discussion of unions is the theme of this topic.
  2. 2014 uniforms

    Personally, I like white much better than black in uniforms. I had rather wear white and be called one of the good guys.
  3. #21

    I know a guy in High School that asked for #13 in each sport, because he wanted to make a statement against the belief that #13 was an unlucky number.
  4. Ode to a former forum

    This is an open board for this very reason, so the members can post their likes and dislikes of the various sports programs. If a particular person wants to post his views of the coach every day, then it is his perogative, however, it might not be the best thing to do if the posting member wants...
  5. APU

    Reply to DTGT: All of these guys you mentioned are pros. They are the best of the best, and they practice harder than any football player will ever practice. They are called amatuer only because there are not pro leagues like baseball, basketball, and football. Just because the Olympic rules...
  6. APU

    The kids are getting all the benefits, they do not have to play football, and they do not have to attend college. However, if they desire to do so, they can get a completely free ride to play a game they love to play anyway. There is no real work involved, because they have loved the game from...
  7. APU

    RamblinCharger: Unions are for the lazy and those who do not want to work. Those who are responsible and do a good job do not need unions. I agree, the original unionship was good, but it deterioated into a political scheme where the unions are used to elect Democratic (Socialist) politicians...
  8. APU

    Personally, I don't like any of it. If these athletes do not want a free education, then fine, let them go get a job somewhere or pay for their own education. They already get free medical. The only thing I think would be appropriate is that each player has an insurance policy paid by the...
  9. Coaching Carousel

    I do think most Tech Fans would be willing to give Godsey a try. He was well liked by the fans.
  10. Justin Thomas and the offense

    Justin Thomas should be an improvement in the running game, but to what extent, we don't know. As to the passing game, we do not know this either. Common sense should tell us that some of his passes will be batted down at the line of scrimmage. If he passes on the run, then we might complete...
  11. Travis Custis and Jonathan Dwyer

    Dwyer was a great back in High School. Custis was a great back in High School. Dwyer was a great back in College. Custis to be determined.
  12. Coaching Carousel

    Techster: Thanks for the information.
  13. Hal Mumme interview talks about CPJ

    I can only give as assessment by the volume of games I have watched over the years. I have followed college football for 68 years and have observed this phenomenom with teams. A balanced attacked seems to be the best if you have the horses for it. A system using more passing than rushing appears...
  14. GT adds a walk-on QB

    Worth taking a chance! Has the size and experience in similar system. A lot of playing quarterback is in the head as well as in the athleticism. That is why some walkons make the grade. Everyone knows the speed of the game and the fact that the competition is greater than High School. The...
  15. Coaching Carousel

    A question for someone who knows the history of Godsey! In the back of my mind, it seems Godsey had excellent grades coming into Tech from High School. I assume he did well at Tech. I like a coach who has a high IQ and the ability to analyze as well as knowing the game. Does Godsey fit this...
  16. 2014 schedule to be released tomorrow

    I can assure you that everyone would want us to play on Thursday nights if we won all the games we played on Thursday nights. We gripe because we do not win those games and look lousy to the nation. If we won them we would look great, have Thursday night to ourselves, attract recruits, and call...
  17. Notre Dame to Under Armour

    gtwin: I agree with the "Perfect Uniform" on your reply, except my druthers would be the white helmet. The only reason I do not like the gold helmet is Notre Dame wears gold helmets and I don't like anything about Notre Dame.
  18. Notre Dame to Under Armour

    ibeeballin: The reason some stores do not sell yellow jacket items is the easiest question I have had to answer. All stores, barring none, are out to make money and will sell items that customers want. However, they lose money when the items don't sell and take up space in the store where they...
  19. Notre Dame to Under Armour

    I am not the least bit swayed about the Russell/Nike controversy. I really don't care if they wear jeans while playing as long as they win. Who cares how a team looks if it is losing? This reminds me of several of my son's comments about his looks. His lady friend told him he should exercise...
  20. 2014 Schedule

    I saw some basically inflated figures regarding our points scored per game, and our points given per game. Two of the games were meaningless and need to be left out of the averages. Deleting the Elon and Alabama A&M games, we scored 29 points per game and gave up 26 points per game; not very...
