Who would be Kamchatka?

I told you what the students I knew at Harvard shared with me. One an athlete, one not. Also have a colleague who played baseball at Yale and he told me essentially the same thing, though Yale and Harvard don’t do it exactly the same. So I don’t know what to tell you. But are you suggesting...

I wish Washington State and Oregon State would start putting “The” in front of their names. 😊

Meant to finish with the thought that lots of people seem to enjoy the idea of ACC chaos. Wish we were not in a conference that gets kicked around so much by sports media.

Yeah, when I accidentally ran across this, I internet searched and four YouTube videos on the subject came up which I haven’t watched. I guess the “rationale” behind the rumor is that 2-4 teams may leave for the SEC, 2-4 teams might join the Big, and the rest don’t want to be homeless since the...

Anyone else run across any rumors of 3 ACC teams wanting to join the Big 12? Wake Forest was supposedly one of them. Whoever started this rumor claimed inside sources of back room talks. It’s probably total hogwash and I apologize for spreading an unsubstantiated rumor but just wondered if...

Take Harvard. Endowment is such that any student of need can go for free if they are accepted. Other students pay tuition on a graduated scale based on income. Harvard ends up being reasonable to pay for regardless of your income. Uber wealthy pay full tuition because they can afford it...

Yep. It’s true. Academic scholarships are offered using the same criteria used for any student.

His NFL career is on hold while he continues to make academic progress.

History, tradition, true student athletes, meh.

Yeah, because who cares about service academies.

Yeah, I feel unusually bitter about this. I try to reflect on why and it’s no one thing. But possible reasons include…… 1. The idea that if Tech just wins then all will be right with our program in the current climate, which just isn’t true. 2. That we should give up on leaving the ACC...

No. The NFL holds the cards if a player wants to continue after college.

As a result, this becomes an almost impossible game to pick. FSU looks faster and more athletic to me but not sure if that team will show up. Georgia blew their one big game this year so they either will have a chip on their shoulder or we saw exactly who they are against a competitive team...

Yeah, I got confused working off of different sources and trying to figure how to type this into my phone so it was legible.

Good analysis. I think the CFP has both shrewd and coy about both how they word things and how they market things. Georgia vs Alabama was heavily watched for one main reason. Georgia was promoted as the team that had won the national championship two years in a row and this game would...

Does he know something the rest of the college football world doesn’t?

Hope I can format this right. A comparison of stadium capacity between Tech and uga over the years, just the highlights since they rarely expanded at the same time or rate. uga Tech 1948 30,000...
