Anyone remember when Tech expanded seating to 60,000 because of the demand for tickets? This was after leaving the SEC. I seem to recall attending a game in which the estimated attendance was well over 61,000. No, it didn’t last. Tech kept falling behind uga in wins, money, the head to head...

Agree. But my point was akin to “players have always played without helmets” until one day people look back and marvel at “why?”

Obviously, and obviously obvious, that was absolutely obviously not going to happen. I think back to prior to the selection process when I entertained briefly the idea that the SEC would get left out. Logic dictated that they would be but leaving them out has never been done. So then I...

Not “student” athletes.

People will look back on this in the future and marvel at how convoluted the playoff selection was. And wonder how in the world choosing a champion in a sport got turned over to an arbitrary committee process.

Largest endowment of any school from what I’ve read.

As I said before, we looked flat from the opening tip off.

Tweaking NIL is some way like this sounds like a good idea. Incentivize them to not leave money on the table. Wonder if Tech should hire some kind of social psychologist / marketing person to craft an approach that effectively keeps guys in school after they’ve committed to Tech.

You just always have to be right don’t you.

Yep, it was a lousy game. Ugly performance. But I honestly believe it has nothing to do with how good this team could be. Hopefully we learn from this game, especially finding out how to generate points when no one is shooting well. This is one of those games you forget and move on.

All of which is why it really pushes my buttons when I read SEC propaganda from posters on this site. I can hear how great the SEC is from dozens of sources but this is the only place I can get deprogrammed from all the brainwashing.

“Oh, crap, I totally forgot I’m behind on my labs and still haven’t studied for my finals!” -what dawned on them between celebrating the Duke win and preparing for uga. And some of us, late in life, still have the occasional nightmares about forgetting a class or taking a test for a course you...

During the halftime of the basketball game tonight (the feed was SEC network) the discussion was uga’s pending football game with FSU. If you didn’t see it, it was a nice subtle preemptive piece of propaganda. All the talking head talk boiled down to this. “Will be hard for coaches to get...

We came out flat and got flatter from there. Not sure where the low energy and lack of focus came from. When you keep missing layups and shots ten feet from the basket something is off. Ordinarily one might say the team is tired but surely they got enough rest after Duke. Would love to hear...

True that. Tech only had to compete with the Atlanta Crackers for “sports eyes” back in the day. Starting in 1966 Atlanta started adding another pro sports team every few years. Seemed like each addition made it harder for Tech to get sidewalk fans. To this day college teams in the boonies...

Question for moderators or anyone who is a Tech fan. Would anyone but a troll brag about Alabama going to the Rose Bowl and put a link to their commemorative shirt?

That’s not the criteria which is why I suggested you do some research.

Folks. This is a troll.

I used to watch every bowl game if I could. Each one was like a wrapped gift, with the outer paper being glimpses of fans and team traditions I never see, then slowly revealing surprise contents and then finally winning me over to some team and their happy or sad story lines. Seems like a...
